Recommend this thread if you agree that Rush Limbaugh should be thrown off Armed Forces Radio
   
Why is he still allowed to spew his anti-American hate over Armed Forces Radio? Our troops should not be subjected to his vitriol. I can understand why Bush needed his propaganda, but why has Obama allowed it to continue?

Lets jack this up with recommendations - please keep the comments clean and rational. Then send the link in an e-mail to your Congress members requesting the immediate termination Rush's hate show from Armed Forces Radio.

Thank you

1. Shouldn't?
   
Shouldn't the troops decide? Most of them like him.

 :rotf: post count of six wonder how long he/she will last.

9. he is a threat to good order and discipline
   
most of the groups that he hates on, women, jews, blacks, mexicans, democrats, obama supporters, etc, with the possible exception of the complete figments of his imagination, serve with distinction every day. so the are not only slandered on the radio, they are slandered in front of the other members of their unit.
how is that for unit cohesion?

Sounds more like DU than Rush.

Haven't they been trying to do this since the Clinton years?  Good luck, DUmmies.  This will go over as well as quarantining Fox News.

You think they would figure out they have no power everything they demanded has been denied. * was not chimpeached and frog marched, Rush is still on the air and Faux snooze is still going strong.

Ed Schultz follows Rush on AFN...plus there's AP Radio news and NPR.

How many more "progressive" voices do they freaking want!?

Oh FFS!  The troops love Rush.  You're an idiot and also one of the jackasses who spammed my Gov't account in Korea.

If memory serves they only play 1 hour of Rush's show which is 3 hours.

Here's a trip down memory lane.

Goes to show how long the DUmmies have tried (and failed) to get Rush kicked off the air.

You are correct and it's at like 8pm on the AM station at that.

Rush does have an "adopt a troop" program of sorts. You can buy them a Rush 24/7 membership and then they have the ability to download the podcasts at least.

In Japan, they played the 1 hour segment of Rush at 5am.  Then they'd do his liberal follow on, it was Alan Colmes when I left, at 6 am, which much more people ended up listening to because work for most offices began around 7 or so.

Rush went to a combat zone to visit the troops. How many liberal asshats have done that, with the exception of Hitlery, and we all know how that went!

Why do the Little Goons even care?  It's not altering their lives in any way.  It make no sense to obsess over who is on AFR.  It's for the troops.  Not the Little Goons.

The troops should only be exposed to words that speak "truth to power", meaning the only the ideas/ideals espoused by The One.

Quite a few from what I've heard..TRG would know for sure. It's that one hour of Rush that really gets to them...Free speech for me but not for thee. Loosers

Yes, and why doesn't AFRTS broadcast "The Internationale" before every program, hmmmmm?

The last attempt to rid AFRTS of Rush was led by none other then my Favorite Democratic Senator from Iowa - Tom "I was a combat pilot in Vietnam" Harkin. For those that missed it,Tom Harkin never even got close to the shores of Vietnam. His job was to fly jets from a carrier deck to a repair unit in the Phillippines. He left the Navy after his first few years with only a National Service ribbon and the rank of Lt jg.

I listen to Rush, and from what I've heard, he's more Pro-American and Pro-Troops than the pond scum (no offense to pond scum) over at DU.

I just read some of those threads, had to come over here to take a shower  :innocent:   What an ugly, dirty place that is.  All they do is cherry pick out of context snippets from the media then smear it with their brain feces.  Like the thread about calling CNN to tell them to stop picking on Obama while he's overseas representing our country  :loser:

Really, Kim Jong Il is more pro-US troops than most of the DUers.

Senator Harkin's DU screen name is "TomInIowa".
But he didn't pull a shotgun on the Secretary of the Navy.

Rush supports those in the armed forces while DUers want to ban recruiting and just about everything else.
