RACISM<BR/>This kind of garbage exemplifies the base, crude, and ignorant humor that Rush peddles. Though I recoil from notions of censorship, I am dismayed that so many people that trumpet their pride as "American" buy into this filth. <BR/><BR/>Aside from its poor taste, that album attempts to distract us in America from how messed up things really are, and perhaps more pointedly that it was the "Conservative" Rush & friends that have brought us there.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17923327932846658309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088101434907940788.post-91792466735136076462009-01-02T14:37:00.000-08:002009-01-02T14:37:00.000-08:00Michael:Don't miss: "RUSH THE MAGIC LIMBAUGH," my ...Michael:<BR/><BR/>Don't miss: "RUSH THE MAGIC LIMBAUGH," my YouTube entry on the subject.<BR/><BR/>All best,<BR/> El<BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8vYsRLf210B.

If he didn't, you're point has the consistency of what drops out of the most southward portal of a moose going north. <BR/><BR/> As far as the sickly sweetness that one poster, yeah PPM can be that from time to time, especially after "Reunion," but give me that post strained elderly vocal harmonies anytime over some of the more slick vomit drenched in cliched pedal steel Music Row puts out.

It might be a clever piece, but at this time of such overwhelming serious issues facing our country it smacks of stupidity to think anyone but a racist will find it funny.
