Talk Radio Watch Title: Pigboy stands by his Haiti remarks, tells critical caller she’s a ‘bigot’ with ‘tampons in her ears.’ Yesterday, hate radio host Rush Limbaugh controversially said that President Obama was going to try to use the devastating Haitian earthquake to boost his credibility with the “light-skinned and dark-skinned black community” in the United States. He also argued against government aid for the nation. Today, a woman named “April” from Paducah, KY called into Limbaugh’s show and asked where he got the “cojones” to make such statements. Limbaugh insisted that he never meant to discourage private donations to Haiti, but stood by his remarks that Obama will try to exploit the disaster for political gain: >> RUSH: No, I’m not evading it at all. If I said it I meant to say it, and I do believe that everything is political to this president. Everything this president sees is a political opportunity, including Haiti, and he will use it to burnish his credentials with minorities in this country and around the world, and to accuse Republicans of having no compassion. [...] >> CALLER: [A]re you implying that the Huffington Post as the one and only resource that I [read]? I even watch Fox News once in a while. >> RUSH: No, no, no, no, no. I’m not implying that. … What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a blockhead. What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a closed-minded bigot who is ill-informed. … And if you had listened to this program for a modicum of time you would know it. But instead you’re a blockhead. You’re mind is totally closed. You have tampons in your ears. Nothing is getting through other than the biased crap that you read.

#3. To: war (#2) What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a closed-minded bigot who is ill-informed. … Limbaugh has always had the most heavily screened show on radio. These people only get through because he wants them to, and only after he's been told exactly what they're going to say.
#6. To: Bickus Dickus (#3) (Edited) Limbaugh has always had the most heavily screened show on radio. I never got through to Blimpy but I did get through to Walter Williams when he subbed for Blimpy once to point out that Williams did speak ebonically after claiming that his mother would beat him if he did and so he never did. I got about two sentences out before i got cut off... I nailed both Hannity and Mark Levin a few times...I got Hannity good when when I asked him how much money he'd get from Boy Blunder's tax cuts. He cut me off real quickly and then played that game where he quickly throws out a bunch of questions and then pretends I'm still on the line and had no answer. Levin I got when I pointed out how the premise of his book, Men In Black, i.e. The SCOTUS has no power of judiical review, stood squarely at odds with The Federalist #78. He howled like Mad Dog the first time Yukon nailed him with all 2 inches. I will never forget part of his screech in reply: "Even Satan can quote the Bible." BTW, I met someone who was a "researcher" for Hannity...there are three of them at any point surfing the web and feeding responses to him via IM. He also said that Hannity has Matt Drudge and GOP op research guys getting a direct [not delayed] feed who IM Hannity lines and retorts.
Replies to Comment # 6. He cut me off real quickly and then played that game where he quickly throws out a bunch of questions and then pretends I'm still on the line and had no answer. Maybe it was the more likely possibility that Hannity listeners would be turning off their radios after about 10 seconds of you (if in fact you actually got on there). And he made a jerk out of you to boot.
