The Limbaugh Influence

Posted on March 15, 2012 at 9:26 am by Bob Cesca

A video from 1994 highlighting exactly how influential Limbaugh really is. Even with congressional Republican women.

He’s not a simple entertainer or comedian. He’s a professional spokesman and advocate for the Republican Party.

    I had to listen to RL during the entire summer of 1992. I worked on a road crew, and the driver of the truck I was assigned to was a big fan. As I was the “summer help” I unfortunately didn’t get a vote. A few years later, for a graduate seminar, I wrote a paper on RL and how extreme views expressed by a minority can eat away at a democratic society. Although the details of the paper escape me, my basic thesis was that RL was a threat to the Republic. Most of my fellow students (liberals like me) didn’t take RL seriously and rejected my thesis. (Of course, this was all before Fox News.) Thanks to three tortuous months of total immersion in the Dittohead Universe, I was able to successfully defend my thesis during the class and received an “A.” So, to my fellow graduate school alumni (class of 96), I hate to say I told you so, but, I told you so…

      I spent that same Summer listening to late-nite “libertarians” and Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell, noting at the time that the segue from Vince Foster to black helicopters didn’t come with a listener guide. Several years later I used talk radio as the springboard for a paper on cognitive dissonance in Plato’s cave. We should totally put together a “university” and charge people Glenn Beck prices to feed their heads with actual information.
