Limbaugh, Beck Rally Around Massa

witness23 · Mar 10, 2010

Beck and Rush coming to the aid of this guy? Anyone who thinks these two have an ounce of integrity really needs to have their heads examined.

Talk about strange bedfellows: Conservative pundits have rushed to support Eric Massa, the New York Democrat who resigned Monday amid allegations sexual harassment. Massa says he's being pushed out over health care—a claim some pundits seem happy to support. Rush Limbaugh promoted the charge at length on his show yesterday, predicting an outpouring of support for Massa. "This guy is as fired up as anybody I've ever heard anywhere opposed to this, and the process and how they're getting it done. This guy is going to have so much support from people."

Glenn Beck is planning to conduct an hourlong interview tonight with the former congressman, the Washington Post notes. Other pundits aren't sold. Don't be fooled by a "weapon of Massa destruction," warned conservative blogger Michelle Malkin. “He’s been a progressive zealot and political opportunist his entire career.” The left is similarly skeptical. “If the stories that are circulating are true," a Democratic strategist tells Politico, the GOP risks rallying behind a man who "harassed male members of his staff." “Is that really where they want to be?”

I did listen to Rush today for about 10 minutes, that is all I can take. He did say that Massa was a "nut case" and that there is much more to come out. Not that any of that matter. Massa is a nut case, so is Obama, Biden, McCain and everyone else in our congress and senate. So what? Why get bent out of shape over Rush? He is NOT an elected official. He is just another Oprha.

I'm pretty sure there is a joke in there somewhere.

Without a doubt, after all, several politicians are involved.

Not that I am a fan of Rush Limbaugh but it sounds like someone again hearing what they want to hear.

While On my Way to visit my Daughter in the Hospital This Morning I Listened to Glen Beck for the First Time in Months! He (Beck) said that he had wasted a Total Hour on Lastnights T.V.Program with Massa and Apologized to his Listeners! He also said that it was a Big Mistake Having Him (Massa) On his Show because Massa Wasn't Believeable (Typical Democrat/Politician) and that He Had changed his Story too Many Times!

So It Doesn't Appear that Beck is Coming to the Aid of this Massa Guy!!

So Witness23's original question about integity and having their head examine is based on hyperbole. Nice try though.

And yet you give them integrity and credibility every time you post about them. If neither were credible, their comments wouldn't be worth addressing. Both men's jobs are to create and build ratings, integrity not required. But even in disagreeing with them, actually by disagreeing with them, you give their positions validity.

I don't know about having your head examined, tho, but you might want to examine whether or not the time and energy spent on paying attention to Fred and Barney gossip over the stone fence in the back yard is really the most frivolous way to waste time.

Yes Limbaugh is entertaining primarily because he points out some of the absurd things libs do. An oldie but goodie.

I was referring to Witness23 when I said "nice try though" not you. It was in reference to Witness23 unsuccessfull attempt to discredit Limbaugh and his listeners.
