I think the karaoke was a great idea. Hopfully, it will give Slush some idea of how silly his ideas are.
"I hope he fails" was the best.
It's a worthy effort to turn Limbaugh's marketing copy on its head for a laugh. Rush profits mightily from playing off our fears.....And with so much currently in doubt, the country is still trying to come to terms with the "I hope he fails" statement. The fact that his message translates easily to a song anyone can sing helps demonstrate the nursery rhyme level of Rush's marketing approach. There is much worse stuff on the air.... Rush himself, for example.
Only if you're a republican.
Before I watch I have to know. Is there a penalty for laughing at the “Supreme Leader of the Republican Party "????
I love hearing Rush's words used verbatim in a comedy routine. Exactly where it belongs.
I enjoyed that. And I thought Jimmy Fallon did a good job as MC.
Concept = Fail
Talk show = Fail
Long microphone = Fail
Singer = Pass
Chunks
I caught it live, and thought it was a very brave thing to do. Mr. Limbaugh deserves and needs our scorn, and Mr. Fallon was brave enough to give it to him, in a format that Mr. Limbaugh understands - the public forum.
Thank you Mr. Fallon.
There is a clever idea here somewhere, but Rush Limbaugh is such a downer, it just doesn't translate to comedy in any way, shape or fashion. Maybe Karioke sports casters.
Maybe forget the whole thing.
i will take over the Republican party and make them advocate civil liberties and oppose pre-emptive war ^_^
