Are Rush Limbaugh listeners capable of independent thought?
   
The question is put sarcastically, but is asked seriously: do his listeners form their own political opinions and positions or do they simply follow his lead? Obviously none of us can know the answer to this, but how do you see it?

Look in the mirror asswipe.

We've been asking the same question about liberals for years now, and the answer is still "No."

How original.  Nobody has ever accused Rush listeners of being sheep before.  Kudos, Stinky, you're only 10 years behind the 8-ball.

You see, I don't care you how feel.  I really don't.  More importantly, neither does anyone else.  Only about 200 people on a planet of 7 billion actually care about your feelings, and that's if you're lucky.  The sooner you grasp this lesson, the better off you will be.  And since almost no one gives a damn what you do, say, think, or feel, appealing to your feelings when you encounter differences of opinion is not only illogical, but useless.

Don't forget Malloy, Schultz, Maher, and the editorial staff over at the NY Times, Washington Post, and news editors at CNN, NBC, CBS, and ABC.

Ever listen to them some nights?  Their newscasts, pundits, and other shows quote each other nearly word for word, right off the fax they got from the DNC that morning.

Look Stinky just because you goons need Rachel and Keef to tell you what to think, does not mean that we need Rush to tell us what to think.
I listen to Rush to hear someone who agrees with what I believe in at least most of the time, I also listen to him to hear things that the media may be quiet on. If it wasn't for Rush, Hannity, etc I probably would have never heard 0bama say there were 57 states, now if Bush had said that, even the cartoon channel would have reported on it, but the media was quiet when he made that mistake.

Umm, I was a Republican before Rush went on the air and I listen to him because he agrees with me.

I dunno.

I never heard of Rush Limbaugh until I bought a book of his.

For obvious reasons, franksolich says "not guilty" to any stupid notion that Rush Limbaugh tells him how to think, because franksolich couldn't hear Rush even with a 10,000-watt amplifier.

Kiss my ass, dude.

LOL, I saw this thread earlier and all I thought was "well, it's Vinnie and he IS slow" but then Nadin had to go weigh in and manage to make a bad thread worse somehow:

23. I listen to the show from time to time
 and no, they are not. Unless you are aware of how PSY OPS works... it is easy to fall prey to it. And he has gotten that much more sophisticated over the years. Only reason, IMHO, that Glenny was taken off the air... is that he is too brash... but he communicates the same message actually;

33. Because I am looking for cues to propaganda techniques
 I am doing this far more as an academic exercise.

Here is how it's changed over the years.

REPETITION. It used to be the exact same words, over and over again back in the 1980s. These days he can give you the same message over a fifteen minute time slot... in five different ways. Linguistically that is a feat all on it's own.

He also modulates his voice far more. HIs "my friends" shtick is at a lower pitch (where glenny failed miserably, and boort is actually better) than it used to be. It is almost a congenial tone. as if you were talking to a real friend.

What is scary is that of all these shit stirrers... the best is actually O'Reilly. 

She is such a pompous ass.

29. Funny you mention that. I have had identical experiences.
   
They look at you sort of slack jawed and then start nodding in agreement. They even repeat your words back as if they're actually undergoing a bout of comprehension . . . . and then they're right back to Rushbo the next day.

These people are cave dwellers.

Dude, seriously?  I listen to neither Rush nor Hannity.  Matter of fact, the only time I've ever had an opportunity to listen to talk radio is if I'm driving to work on back shift.  Hannity is on too late for me, I have this little thing called a JOB which requires me to be alert and rested and I have to be up most mornings just after 5, sometimes earlier.

Well, just take a look at the number of threads you idiots devote to worshiping Keef or Thom or Rachel or any of their ilk. Now look at us, or any other conservative site for that matter. How many threads here do you see singing paens to some talking head? We might occasionally quote or bring up some topic covered on one of their shows or in one of their articles, but you don't see us flitting around like a fairy, yelling, "Oooo, send it to Ann! Send it to Ann!" or "Check in here if you're listening to Glen!!!111" like a bunch of vapor-locked teenyboppers at a Justin Bieber concert.

*gush**gush*isn't he just dreamy*gush*

That isn't us, that's you assholes, licking your heroes' toes and hanging on their every syllable.

The feed of el Rushbo that Eddie showed
   
that is a PEFECT example of how he has evolved with repetition, the lie and pushing the propaganda.

In five minutes, or less... he repeated the same message about thirty times... in about ten different ways.

This is TEXTBOOK EXAMPLE of the propaganda techniques they use.

SO find it online and watch it. Study it... this is how you push the big lie.

That's because they're playing you.  They know a slack jawed look and nodding is the type of thing the left does when one of their cult leaders is giving them their talking points.  As an extra bonus, they repeat words back to you, just like we watch you do all the time on Skin's island with your Dem leaders, husb2.  And they do fully understand... that you're an idiot.

husb2 is still mad that I and others here have pointed how how much more intelligent we are than he can ever hope to be.  Burns him up to no end to have us remind him.  Tough.
