POPSLimbaugh's living large while radio boss Clear Channel implodes Cont.... The astronomical worth of Limbaugh's eight-year pact: $400 million. The amount of money Clear Channel execs have been trying to scrimp and save this year as they lay off thousands from the struggling company: $400 million. Ironic, don't you think? Context: Clear Channel now pays Limbaugh more than NBC pays late-night ratings king Jay Leno. Who thinks Limbaugh brings in more ad revenue for Clear Channel than Leno does for NBC? FYI, The Tonight Show generates approximately $200 million annually for NBC.

POPSRush To The President: "DEBATE ME" If Rush really is the drug-addled gasbag the left makes him out to be, then the Obamassiah with his silver tongue and glistening bronze pecs should have no problem besting him in a debate. Right, Obama culties? Your Obamassiah should have nothing to fear from Rush, should he? I mean, surely Obama would welcome the opportunity to clean the clock of his most influential heretic? Right? These Chicago thugs were counting on Rush folding faster than Superman on laundry day… like their Republican opponents. The last thing they expected was for Rush to challenge him right back. "But I have an idea. If these guys are so impressed with themselves, and if they are so sure of their correctness, why doesn't President Obama come on my show? We will do a one-on-one debate of ideas and policies. Now, his people in this Politico story, it's on the record." http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_030409/content/01125106.guest.html

POPSEmanuel: Limbaugh Is The Voice Of The GOP FTA: Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-Ga.) apologized Wednesday to “my fellow conservatives” for comments critical of talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh – saying he sees “eye-to-eye” with Limbaugh and that his remarks defending House Republican leadership came across more harshly than intended. --- “I regret and apologize for the fact that my comments have offended and upset my fellow conservatives—that was not my intent,” Gingrey said in a statement. “I am also sorry to see that my comments in defense of our Republican Leadership read much harsher than they actually were intended, but I recognize it is my responsibility to clarify my own comments.” I think the Republican members of Congress got the message loud and clear. Steele and Kyl and Cornyn and McConnell and Boehner will take Limbaugh's orders dutifully, even if they try to distance themselves away from them publicly. For the most part they just recite his talking points anyway.

POPSPresident Obama Is Driving Republicans Insane Sadly I am, once again, proven right. I predicted this same behavior here in the pages of clipmarks and the so called Right (with their clipmarks attendants) have proven me correct. Please oh please, I beg you, prove me wrong!

POPSRush Limbaugh has his grip on the GOP microphone While the GOP's star has fallen, Limbaugh's has soared. As party leaders struggle to find their voice, Limbaugh's baritone booms loud and clear three hours a day, five days a week on 600 radio stations across America. If a $400-million contract and the title of most influential talk radio personality -- as voted by industry pros -- aren't sufficient proof, consider President Obama's decision to pick a fight with him three days into his presidency.

POPSThe Alternate Secret History Of The World It first appeared as an illustration to this story we wrote for Pajamas Media, and then a shorter version of it on the Cube a few days later: The Alternative Secret History of the World. At first the image had no attribution because we never expected it to be anything more than an illustration. In that form it wound up in Rush Limbaugh's inbox, emailed to him without crediting the source. Rush liked it so much that he described it on his show. Here's a transcript from his site:
