Hugo Chavez Democrats’ Systematic Removal of Conservatives

Written by Lotus on Wednesday, 12 of December , 2007 at 9:17 pm

In Godless Ann Coulter wrote, “Liberals are perennially enraged that Republicans are allowed to talk back.” As such, this has spawned “Hugo Chavez Democrats” that make it their life’s work to get conservatives blacklisted from the media.  The Left’s perpetual whining is usually funny, but not so much when the spineless surrender to them.

One plug was for Muhammad the Teddy Bear.

Mentioning Rush Limbaugh’s ESPN episode might qualify as a shameless plug, since obviously you’ve got to hope that Rush will get a “Google alert” and mention your column on his show.

You know, I’ve been with The Washington Times 10 years and, while Rush has sometimes done bits about stories I’ve written, he’s never once mentioned my byline. It’s sort of a pet peeve.

BTW, who is JOTUS?

You’re both right about the number, but not the examples! In the Christmas spirit, Richard gets the prize since he chimed in first. Speaking of the Christmas spirit, I’ll give you a hint: One of the plugs wasn’t for me.

As for Rush, I got my first byline on his show when I was 21, so no need to be shameless for him :)

JOTUS is Joe of the United States, aka my assistant.

Sorry I’m commenting on your blog at 4 o’clock in the morning…I haven’t had time to visit my favorite bloggest’s webpage in a few days…plus I think I’m on the relapse of this stupid sickness!

As always, I love this column.

[…] This is yet another example of the “Hugo Chavez liberal” phenomenon, coined by Ann Coulter, and further explained by Lisa De Pasquale in this excellent column. […]
