Two entertainers in a slap fight
So why is the news plastered with Rush Limbaugh vs. Michael J. Fox news? I like both of them. Fox entertained me through the 80s and Limbaugh entertained me through the 90s. Since I’ve changed careers twice since the 80s, I sadly, don’t have time for either anymore.
Fox is doing what he does best – playing a convincing role, and Limbaugh is doing what he does best – causing controversy. But why is it news at all? Even my local news was devoting way more time than it deserved. It’s not like either is running for office – they’re both supporting their respective candidates, but so close to the election, shouldn’t we be focused on issues rather than a clash of entertainment personalities?
But, I almost forgot – the Left doesn’t want us to look at issues, consequences and results. The intellectually vacant Left want us to focus on inconsequential minutae.  Minutae like two broadcast personalities arguing over the way one of them portrayed themself in a commercial.
Sister Toldjah did a much better job at look at the controversy than I could have done so please see her blog from Monday if you’re at all interested in the backstory.
But, I’d pay attention to this if there’s nothing else going on – kinda like if I ran across two transvestites having a slap fight on a street corner.
