I have been putting some thought on the idea of getting the treasonous bloviator out of Armed Forces Radio and I have reached a logical conclusion that I need some help with from you all.
I have written three diaries;
Let's get Rush Limbaugh out of Armed Forces Radio
Let's get Rush Limbaugh out of Armed Forces Radio #2
Let's get Rush Limbaugh out of Armed Forces Radio #3
Certainly I believe that this guy is dangerous and the fact that AFR broadcasts his vile throughout the world as representative of American politics is really really atrocious.
As I covered in the previous diaries, many have tried before and it would make sense to organize an effort to unite all these voices into one to have more impact in DC and the chain of command.
But there is an issue; Rush Limbaugh, whether we like it or not, is part and parcel of the GOP/Tea Party. Removing him would be like removing a sizable chunk of American politics. He represents part of the political spectrum however sick these people are.
So my logical conclusion is that the only way to get rid of Rush Limbaugh from AFR is to get ALL politics out of there, period.
Certainly this implies getting rid of Ed Schutz and Randi Rhodes and others including lovely Sean Hannity. But IMO it has to be done.
Our military has to exist outside the realm of politics and under the control of the chain of command from the CinC on down.
So I ask you? Does this make sense? Or am I missing something?
