Okay, now that we've all got MC Rove out of our systems, here's a reminder about the real main event of the D.C. social circuit this week: the Media Research Center 20th Anniversary Gala.
Did I mention that legendary radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh will be there?
Rush told his listeners as much in his opening dialogue a few minutes ago, and we at the MRC are very much looking forward to Rush and other friends of the conservative movement sharing the evening with us tonight as we mark 20 years of the Media Research Center busting liberal media bias.
Remember, you can check out the live Webcast at MRC.org starting at 8 p.m. EDT tonight. We'll also have a comment thread open at NewsBusters so you can add your comments in real time.
One more note: Please bear with us this afternoon as our blogging may be a bit lighter than usual as we make our final preparations for tonight's Gala.

20th Congrats MRC!
March 29, 2007 - 13:05 ET by RJCongrats on your 20th, MRC! Looks like a great time. I have to be out, so I can't join the webcast, but I'll try to read about it.
On a side note, I've never seen anything from you guys, but is Rush a big fan of Newsbusters? He mentioned the site again today....hi, Rush! ;^>

March 29, 2007 - 13:21 ET by Ken ShepherdYeah, Rush is among our biggest fans. It's an honor to write blog entries that he picks up and relays to an even wider audience than we reach.
This is great news about MRC
March 29, 2007 - 13:37 ET by bigtimerThis is great news about MRC tonight...I used to watch them on C-SPAN, I think it was the same thing then, Brent was always representing the show and they were absolutely great!
I am going to try my hardest to be available and looking forward to it!
I also heard Rush mention NB's this morning to about the Dungy article...mentioned on open thread!
Wonderful Rush is going to be there!
Sure hope I can catch this!
Lord I hope my site doesn't go down like it did yesterday numerous times because of a local feud here with my IPS and phone Co!
What a fun time you all are

Geez I hope I get to watch this too!
I just found out the reason my PC has been going down...a local highway outfit cut into the fiber-optic lines repairing the highway about fifty miles or more away!
At least I know now...
Waaaah!
Fill me in if I miss it.... tomorrow if you get the chance!
The White Conservative Racist
March 29, 2007 - 21:28 ET by joe conservativeThe White Conservative Racists who listen to Limbaugh's show must be quite confused by such a statement.
Without the factless, baseless assertion, name calling, and strawman arguments, Limbaugh would be a mime.

March 29, 2007 - 21:25 ET by joe conservativeLimbaugh stands alone and revealed to the world for what he is: a man of weakness and hate, rightly reviled and yet pitiable in his abject failure to feel anything but fear and emnity coupled with the absolute certainty that no one really loves or cares for him. Talk about having to live with that curse for the rest of your days?? He is a walking misery.

March 29, 2007 - 23:15 ET by tumbler_2007It takes about 6 months, JC-- Rush says so--
It takes at least 6 months for you to come out of your mother's skirts and find yourself loving the great Rush Beau ~~ This cat is Coo - ull !!! Give yourself time. Eat your pablum, take your beady eyes off that feces in your Pampers (stop your fixation, Dodo) grow up a half-year.
You'll come back here to NewsBusters a bona fide Ditto Head ! Unless you're a lover of Barbies and Kens; with their fashion collections ? (There's no accounting for taste.)
Nothing more for you to say...

Yo, joe, bigtimer already told you, screw you and your make-believe pony. Anything you say beyond that is just senseless noise. Brrr! Your time is up, sir. See ya!
