At this point I'm beginning to question if you know what the term "out of context" means. Rush very specifically said that was what the coverage was like for Robin Williams. People were saying "The man had everything but it wasn't enough."
I don't know how much more clear I can make that in my post.
I'm not saying Rush is correct; that that's really the narrative of the coverage of his death. I'm merely saying that's what he said.

Very specifically? The whole reason we are even having this conversation is because it was not specific enough. Why didn't he specifically say "the media" instead of "the left"? Or "the left leaning media" or "liberal media". He didn't. He just grouped everything up into political rhetoric against his perceived enemies and Robin Williams' death became a literal weapon for his propaganda campaign.
I agree with you that Rush is wrong about how the media is reporting this. My days off are spent with the TV on pretty much all day on NBC and I have seen nothing but heart warming tributes everywhere. Nothing about dissecting his condition or reasons for his death.

Rush: I think there was, on the part of media and Hollywood, genuine affection for the guy that is driving it, but there is politics. If you notice the coverage is focused on how much he had, but it wasn’t enough.
And Keller said conservatives don't understand what they read.
I demand an apology!

Squiggles, my friend! So nice to see you.
I've been a pretty middle-of-the-road moderate since I started posting on this forum. Fiscally conservative, socially liberal. Call me a empathetic libertarian.
I hope that helps clear up your concern about me. It's always nice to know my friends are thinking about me. Thanks, as always!
