What part of "the Democrat party is attempting to find anybody but him to blame" is there to contextualize? What part of "he's just a victim" is there to contextualize? What part of "to make sure he's not convicted of murder – but something lesser" is there to contextualize?

Are you telling me that if I listen to the whole episode that this quotation takes on a different meaning? What if I don't want to listen to it? Can you explain it to me instead? What's been spun about this? Who's being provocative?
I wasn't going to say much due to bad health. I wile away my hours now online due to it.

While I personally did not listen to that day's program, I have listened to Rush enough to know when he is joking. He knows how to make money and get attention to make more money. How he does it is he'll take a small shred of fact and warp it and put his bias into it. Not much different than some of the Lefties out there on tv. The media gets pissed about Rush, much like they do with Stern, because neither can be controlled in what they say, the appearance of them being rebellious, is their paycheck. What I truly don't get is how someone can understand that simple money making scheme with one and want the other banned or silenced in some way. The "left" commentators do the same thing but if you notice they appear on left leaning networks. Thus, they are more controllable, same with Hannity, Beck, O'Really... and so on only they are on a right leaning network that claims to be "fair and (un)balanced."

BTW Happy Birthday to Rush (60) and Stern (57).
