EIB Announcement: Rush Limbaugh Becomes Official Unpaid Advisor to Bush-Cheney '04: "I made an official announcement to open the program today. I have become, and have been for a while, an official, unpaid advisor to the Bush-Cheney '04 campaign, and we decided to go public with this because there's no problem with it whatsoever. First advice given: "If you repeat something enough times it becomes true, even if you provide no evidence whatsoever!" Try it: "We are winning the War on Terror!" "We are safer because of the War in Iraq!" Of course, we knew all along that Rush's backers were the same people bankrolling the Bush campaign. They have the same bosses, so why shouldn't they work together? Rush has been an on air advertisement for the moneyed interests for years, masquerading as a crusader for the common man. The reason there is "no problem" between his capacity as campaign advisor and his day job as talk show shill is that they are essentially the same job. Rush has been pushing the Republican rhetoric for years, going back to the Clinton presidency. I don't think anyone is surprised by this. And as for the lines being blurry...? (via MyDD) |
