RS> They are "radical leftist" the same way Obama is a communist.

  Nein, das ist sie nicht.

  What they do is chip and poke at words then plaster headlines with 
their own conclusions, as you showed us with that article where they 
accused Rush of lying about a lady asking Obama for a car and a 
new kitchen.  Turns out the lady asked for a bathroom and a new kitchen.
   So yes, Rush made a mistake when he said 'car', instead of 'Kitchen',
but the point he made still stands, quite tall in this case.

   ie. 'Gimmie, gimmie...I'm a victim.  I need a new bathroom.'

  They're legends in their own minds.  Their website is only taken 
seriously by folks like yourself.  Maybe 1 out of 10,000 people in the 
country spend any more than two minutes mulling through their distortions.
Meanwhile, Rush continues to reaches tens of millions of people everyday,
week after week, year after year, and has been doing so for at least 
ten years.   Apparently they enjoy exercises in futility. 



  From another one of your examples:


RS>   He *IS* a liar..
 
JF>   Show me.
 
RS>   http://mediamatters.org/items/200902100031?f=s_search
RS>   http://mediamatters.org/items/200902100026?f=s_search
RS>   http://mediamatters.org/items/200902100017?f=s_search
RS>   http://mediamatters.org/items/200901270015?f=s_search

   As I said before, I looked into the first address, and what I got 
is a  lengthy 'Media Matters' article, about who said what first.
How do you expect anyone to verify that at this point in time?  

   Again, you can answer that by explaining how you've done so.

   And please spare mean any more of your exasperated attacks.
Just explain yourself.   Thanks, Ross.
