Warning to conservative talkers: objects in the rear-view mirror may be closer than they appear.
Rush Limbaugh better not look in the rear-view mirror because he might not like what he sees coming up from behind. Despite fictitious and cherry-picked press releases from Rush Limbaugh's syndicator
Premiere Radio Networks, Rush Limbaugh is faltering across the country. In Florida, Limbaugh’s home state, the trend is even more pronounced, as the newly formed "liberal talk radio" station
Air America Radio is exploding in popularity almost overnight.…

Little did the Young Americans (Republicans) know that their well-attended seminar at last year's convention on Talk Radio was infiltrated by quite a few of us who are monitoring their dirty tricks aimed at undermining Air America. The rest of the convention was boilerplate doublespeak on how to dupe the public into believing that they are "reforming" or "improving" foundation social programs they openly admit they are out to kill, but can't admit since they'd be outed as the crackpot privileged Little Lords Fauntleroy they are, as they flounce from the meeting on how to scapegoat gays over to a closet gay orgy of the pasty and pudgy.
But the Talk Radio seminar was buzzing with the plans for throwing up smear blogs, phonying ratings reports that are never published, smearing the whole enterprise with the misdeeds of an early CEO who misrepresented himself, etc ad nausem. Monomaniacal were the trickster progency of Rove, Abramoff and Reed in the need to shut up the first challenge to the rightwing dirty tricks talk radio juggernaut, a disinformation operation that would astound Goebbels.
Air America even as a fledgling start-up speaks truth with such power and take-no-prisoners pugnaciousness that the right thought they own as bully boys who bullied their way into power, bullied the opposition into complaisance, even tried to bully their own more conscientious members into silence as they blew the whistle on the spiraling fraud. Air America gives it right back to them in spades. This sets the hair on fire of the rightists who ginned up their dirty tricks squad to throw everything they can at Air America to collapse it. It is vulnerable because it doesn't have a Moonie fraudster convict, or an Aussie press baron, to float it through the lengthy start-up period. It only has truth, and the right is certain they can snuff that too since it worked so well with Iraq, the media consortium's findings on who actually won the 00 election, even the objections of GOP U.S. Attorneys to being smeared for crying foul.
But somewhere in the recent past we reached critical mass of the GOP's towering mass of lies. Bullies started being outed and shown for the chickenhawk closetcase cowards they really are. Now is the time for the rightists to ask themselves if they really want to push it any further. You have lost two wars in which the whole world rooted for the other side because YOU are YOU, filthy lying scumbag rightist ideologues. You destroyed the reputation of the United States in every corner of the world, bankrupted the government, sent your party into a 15 point Pew nosedive. All that is left for you is to slither back into the holes you crawled out of, lest we take the shovel to you for a final coup de grace.
Remember whose side always wins in a revolution. But this time the guillotine is too good for the likes of you.

You are kidding with this blatantly partisan "article", right?
How about a follow up detailing how Air America is doing in 2008?
Or do you blame its failure on conservative "dirty tricks"? I'm sure it couldn't be that people don't want to listen to angry liberals all day long.
