Ignore the Man Behind the Curtain...


Love it...
pictures speak a thousand words don't they?

There's no connection to the shooting in Arizona and people like Rush Limbaugh... is there... {{{says in the MOST sarcastic voice she can muster}}}


Oh wait... but there's THIS... Why what ever DOES the bullet riddled sign mean??? Is there some "message" they are trying to convey? What ever could it be?

Yes... let's just Ignore this message from RUSH who hides behind a desk where he can spew speech meant to incite and inflame and not be in the line of fire himself. I love the internet! Can't hide can you?

TPMMuckraker Clear Channel Yanks 'Straight Shooter' Limbaugh Ad In Tucson Eric Lach |

January 13, 2011, 5:50PM

Several weeks ago, NewsTalk 790 KNST in Tucson put up a billboard to advertise Rush Limbaugh's radio show. The text reads, "Rush Limbaugh/Straight Shooter," and the ad is riddled with images of bullet holes. In the wake of the shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) and 18 others on Saturday, KNST's parent company, Clear Channel, decided to take down the billboard. In a statement to TPM, Clear Channel, which also manages the billboard, said the ad "used the common expression 'straight shooter' to describe Mr. Limbaugh's candid and direct style." The company also said explicitly that it was KNST's promotion department that created the ad, not Limbaugh's show. But after Saturday, company management decided it might not be such a good idea to keep the ad up. "Clear Channel Outdoor management in Tucson quickly elected to take down this ad - believing that discussion of its interpretation would not contribute to the desire for healing in the Tucson community," Clear Channel said. Read the full statement:

Starting several weeks before the recent tragic incident in Tucson, Clear Channel Outdoor had been displaying an ad campaign created by a local Tucson talk radio station to promote its broadcasts of Rush Limbaugh's nationally syndicated radio program. This particular ad - which used the common expression "straight shooter" to describe Mr. Limbaugh's candid and direct style -- was designed and contracted for by the local station's promotion department - not by Mr. Limbaugh's program. In the wake of the tragedy, Clear Channel Outdoor management in Tucson quickly elected to take down this ad - believing that discussion of its interpretation would not contribute to the desire for healing in the Tucson community.
