Frases de Rush Limbaugh
página 2

Rush Hudson Limbaugh III é um radialista e comentarista conservador norte-americano. Ele atualmente reside em Palm Beach, onde ele apresenta o programa The Rush Limbaugh Show. De acordo com uma estimativa feita em dezembro de 2015 pela Talkers Magazine, Rush Limbaugh teria uma audiência semanal acumulada em seu programa de rádio de aproximadamente 13,25 milhões de ouvintes únicos , o que coloca o seu programa de rádio, de estilo talk show, entre os de maior audiência em todo os Estados Unidos.Desde os 16 anos, Limbaugh trabalhou em uma série de trabalhos esporádicos como DJ. O seu talk show no rádio aos moldes atuais teve início em 1984 em Sacramento, California, na estação de rádio KFBK , em que apresentava o seu formato de programa tipicamente contínuo, com comentários políticos e chamadas para participação dos ouvintes.

Finalmente, em 1988, Limbaugh começou a apresentar o seu programa nacionalmente a partir da rádio WABC sediada em Nova York, e em 2014 o seu programa então passou a ser transmitido pela rádio WOR .

Na década de 1990, Limbaugh publicou os livros The Way Things Ought to Be e See, I Told You So que foram incluídos na lista dos best seller da The New York Times. Nas suas publicações e no seu programa, Limbaugh frequentemente critica políticas de cunho liberal e a própria classe política como um todo, bem como o que ele considera como o viés liberal que segundo ele predomina na mídia mainstream norte-americana. Limbaugh está entre as pessoas mais bem pagas nos EUA no ramo midiático, em que somente em 2008 assinou um contrato de oito anos com a sua emissora cujo valor foi de aproximadamente US$400 milhões. O sucesso acumulado ao longo dos anos trouxe novamente prestígio às estações de rádio AM nos EUA. Em 2015, a Forbes totalizou os seus ganhos em US$79 milhões ao longo dos últimos 12 mês daquela data, e o ranqueou como a 11ª celebridade mais bem paga do mundo. No seu mais recente contrato, assinado em 31 de julho de 2016, ficou acordado que ele transmitirá o seu programa de rádio até 2020, data em que completará 32 anos no ar. Wikipedia

“You find yourself staring, looking at, casually glancing at a woman, but you know that it's now socially taboo. You shouldn't be doing it. And you think everybody is noticing you doing it and condemning you in their minds. You shouldn't — so you walk up to the woman and say, "Will you please ask your breasts to stop staring at my eyes?"”

“I prefer to call the most obnoxious feminists what they really are: feminazis. Tom Hazlett, a good friend who is an esteemed and highly regarded professor of economics at the University of California at Davis, coined the term to describe any female who is intolerant of any point of view that challenges militant feminism. I often use it to describe women who are obsessed with perpetuating a modern-day holocaust: abortion. There are 1.5 million abortions a year, and some feminists almost seem to celebrate that figure. There are not many of them, but they deserve to be called feminazis.A feminazi is a woman to whom the most important thing in life is seeing to it that as many abortions as possible are performed. Their unspoken reasoning is quite simple. Abortion is the single greatest avenue for militant women to exercise their quest for power and advance their belief that men aren't necessary. They don't need men in order to be happy. They certainly don't want males to be able to exercise any control over them. Abortion is the ultimate symbol of women's emancipation from the power and influence of men. With men being precluded from the ultimate decision-making process regarding the future of life in the womb, they are reduced to their proper, inferior role. Nothing matters but me, says the feminazi. My concerns prevail over all else. The fetus doesn't matter, it's an unviable tissue mass.”

“I don't think he's been that good from the get-go. I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. They're interested in black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well. I think there's a little hope invested in McNabb and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn't deserve.”
