Radio Host to Be Part of Seven-Judge Panel for January's Pageant in Las Vegas

(AP)  The Miss America Organization said Rush Limbaugh will be a judge for the 2010 pageant in Las Vegas.

It will be held at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on Jan. 30, broadcast live on TLC.

Limbaugh will be on the panel of seven judges that will help decide who will be crowned Miss America 2010.

The Miss America Organization said Friday when making the announcement that Limbaugh's radio program is in its 22nd year and is on nearly 600 radio stations with an audience of 20 million.

President and CEO Art McMaster said the Miss America Organization is thrilled to have Limbaugh as a judge.

The African-American contestants might as well withdraw now because they have no chance with this racist goon as a judge.

Rush is right about OBAMA and all his topics, people dont like him because they know deep down he's right, and they dont want things run the real AMERICAN way, the problem is a majority of people outside your average city agree with him and libs hate that. OBAMA in office is the best thing that could happen, he's messing this country up so bad that the RIGHT is growing stronger everyday, and everybody knows it.. OBAMA has hurt himself and will not be re-elected we can all see that coming..as far as being a judge, big deal anybody can do that, its funny they dont have OBAMA on the panel...probly because you have to be an AMERICAN.

[displeased]

Your idol limbaugh supposedly has 20 million listeners. I certainly wouldn't consider that a "majority of people outside an average city". There is intellect outside your trailer park. Try finding it sometime.

From what is posted on the net about Limbaugh, there must be little boys in the pageant.

Three cheers or three jeers?
Let's remember that Limbaugh tried marriage 3 times. They all failed. Supposedly he gets his jollies when he travels to the Domincan Republic. Limbaugh is a dirty old man. That makes him an excellent judge for Miss America which exists primarily to pander to dirty old men.

[xegunda]

He should take his Viagra so he can be bribed by stage moms.

The winner will be the Republican VP nominee in the next election :)

[ianlou]

Wow,
If the contestants are smart, they better start looking, acting and sounding like Ann Coulter if they want to stand a chance of winning with this impartial judge.

[SHEETPAN]

It's a great PR move, Look at all the attention this stupid pageant is getting.

[willow_m]

They must really be having a terrible time getting anyone to judge this so called "Beauty" pageant. That is truly scraping the bottom of the barrel.

[liselle3]

oops... I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

[displeased]

I feel bad for the 20 million people who ignorantly expose themselves to his delusional rants.

Has MacMaster lost his mind? Selection of Rush guarantees that no black ladies will participate and that the pageant will not have minority viewers. Where are Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson when they are needed?

More reason NOT to watch this archaic charade!

Lets see,
The stupid judging the stupid for the crown of Miss Stupid.
How Stupid.

That is the reason Limpball is on that silly show poochie44.
They count on people like you

[poochie44]

I love it! I just might watch the silly pageant for the first time since I was a kid and there was nothing else on but the silly pageants. I'd like to see what Limbaugh has to say and how it all plays out. This is almost as exciting as American Idol announcing Ellen would be a judge.

[nirak2-2009]

They had to dig that deep in the barrel?

[actornaught]

I guess they didn't figure out how much this 8-time loser creeps women out. Or don't care, since it's a reflection of rush's career, the ratings grab, nevermind some kind of intellectual consistency. Probably an even chance that he'll say something that will get him banned from coming back.

This is a guy who at age 58 has never been able to establish a relationship with an adult human female. It's like getting an anorexic to judge the Pillsbury Bake-Off.
