Well, hello.........of the six articles, only one had anything to do with facts, the rest were his opinions.

You really kind of have this backwards. Limbaugh obviously has opinions like everyone else, and he has a forum where he can express them at will. HOWEVER, it is the liberals who chronically complain that Limbaugh plays loose with the facts, or in liberal parlance, "is a big fat idiot". The reality is that Limbaugh SELDOM slips up. His analysis is cutting, I believe fairly honest, and most importantly -- I've yet to hear a liberal criticism of Limbaugh, other than on an ad hominem basis, that cannot be refuted.

If you want to criticize the guy, I'd think it reasonable to suggest that you listen to his program for a week, then come back here and let everyone know what you found untrue, and to even argue those points you disagree with.

his article had turned into an accounting 101 class........very boring!

You can criticize the article as "boring", but it did a fair job of presenting the facts. Unfortunately, the FACTS about taxes and social security ARE pretty boring, and that's why the vast majority of people haven't a clue. I think his article was totally clear -- almost all taxes are paid by half the people. The subtext is, of course, that this is a grossly unfair arrangement and it would take a whole more "Bush Tax Cuts" to make it approach anything that a reasonable person could conclude is "fair".
