CBS names Stephen Colbert as Letterman replacement

[over the mountain]

Rush Limbaugh says that this is a DECLARATION OF WAR AGAINST THE HEARTLAND OF MURIKA!!!

“You really care what I think about that?” Limbaugh said on Thursday's edition of “The Rush Limbaugh Show,” when the topic was broached. “Well, I'll give you the short version: CBS has just declared war on the heartland of America.”

Limbaugh went on to suggest that the late-night landscape — and in fact comedy as a whole — will now launch a full-scale attack on “traditional American values.”

“No longer is comedy going to be a covert assault on traditional American values … now it's just wide out in the open,” Limbaugh warned. “What this hire means is a redefinition of what is funny, and a redefinition of what is comedy. They're blowing up the 11:30 format under the guise that the world's changing, and people don't want the kind of comedy that Carson gave us, or even Letterman. It's media planting a flag here … it's a declaration.”

when will the conservative pundits stop using fear tactics as their only message?

when i was driving through the south, every other dial was a christian radio show talking about how the liberals are declaring war on religion and how we must all be aware of the coming rapture .....

these bible thumping fear spreading people are the ones who turn out in droves to vote in the mid terms and will get a house and senate full of republicans even though most of the country associates themselves with moderate views .... unfortunately most moderates and reasonable headed people are busy working, spending time with family etc and dont bother with the political vitriol spewed from both parties . . .
