Dear Matt Lauer
I understand this morning you gave forum to one of the most controversial figures in the media, entertainer Rush Limbaugh, aka Jeff Christie, the 'leader' of the Republican party, the person who most wants President Barack Obama to fail, an acknowledged bigot, an unrepentant drug addict who also used his power behind the microphone, substantial wealth, and legal team, to avoid prosecution for doctor shopping, a crime hundreds of 'lesser' citizens go to jail for every year. A man who was caught returning from Central America with Viagra prescribed for someone else after going to a country where sex with under-aged minors is prevalent. A man who has been married three times and condemns others who have been married only once and are faithful.

What were you thinking?


This man is an abomination on the American political scene,and he thinks that those of us who aren't wealthy like he is should just die. This is a man who has NO military experience (and was granted a military deferment for an anal cyst) yet is an expert at dispensing 'advice' to our military. This is a man who is viewed by many as a traitor and not as a hero. This is a man who hates, yes hates, America. And you gave him a forum on the Today show, kissing his feet as he spoke, without criticism or condemnation for his actions past and present.

You don't deserve the title journalist, you belong on the FAUX cheerleader network carrying water for Glenn Beck. If you had ever given former President Bill Clinton the soap box with the same space to bloviate, I'd be more forgiving, but over the years you've proven yourself to be nothing more than a mouthpiece for GE and the RNC. What is it, is Rush auditioning for a TV show on NBC now, the worst of the four networks, in hopes you'll get some of the magic back? You get the magic back by having appealing TV, and by veering Left and not Right, because the Right has 90% of the media in their grasp and we on the Left have crumbs.

I hope your hair plugs fall out.

4. Nah let's not give him any more attention
I also oppose an episode about him because that might encourage someone to hurt him and we don't need him as a martyr.

5. Ask Him When He'll Have Glenn Greenwald On...
Of course that'll be never, but it'd sure be worth watching. Lauer is another waste of electrons...
