So do the Righties become insane after listening to Rush Limbaugh?

Question

or were they insane to begin with? I would like to know the circumference of the butthole they're stuffed up (Limbaugh's) so I could shove a copy of the Constitution (ok and my boot too) up there with them. Do you think they were smart enough to bring a tape measurer up with them or no?

Answer 1

True, I understand your frustration at people who take blatant lies spouted by one true enemy of a Free Democratic America, Rush Limbaugh, but theyre not insane. RUSH may be, but very few of his listeners would ever be institutionalized. The rest of your comments I'll ignore as they don't do you or anyone else credit.

How this man, who, for years (and although I vote Democrat these days, I am a registered Republican and an Army veteran who served under George Bush Sr Presidency, and I used to listen to Rush every afternoon [here in AZ]), could go on and on, berating people who use drugs illegally, calling them cowards and weak and anti-American, and then to find out WHILE he's ranting about illegal drug use, he's forcing his Hispanic housekeeper to get him illegal Oxycontins, that he had (and still has for all we know) a HUGE illegal drug habit?

This is, of course, Conservative hypocracy of the worst sort, no less than Cheney condemning the gay lifestyle after raising a homosexual daughter, or Republicans still slamming Ted Kennedy for Chappaquiddick, when Laura Bush killed a man in her car when she was 17, after running a stop sign in her home town.

Or electing a "Commander in Chief" who couldn't even finish a 6 year National Guard hitch in Texas, to be a "War President".

Rush has no more credibility with me, nor should he with any other sane thinking human being. Limbaugh goes out of his way to sell lies on his radio show and his website. For him to promote such appallingly skewed numbers to make his point makes him, in my mind, a truly evil person.
He recently posted a thing on his website where he says the death toll in Iraq is comparable to the murder rate in Philadelphia. He never explains exactly HOW they compare, but anyone can make their own determination as to their validiity (with the numbers HE uses).

In 2006, Phiadelphia had a population of 1.4 million people. In that year, there were 406 homicides, giving them a murder rate of almost 29 per 100,000. In that same year, US Forces flucuated between 126,900 and 140,000, and had 821 deaths (all inclusive; training exercise deaths, accidents, etc all included, but these are RUSH'S numbers) making the death rate in Iraq at least 570 per 100,000. Obviously these numbers are NOT the same, but Rush says they are, so they MUST be true.

The people who still listen to Rush do so because it's easier to find justification to "nuke them ragheads" than try to find common ground to co-exist, it's easier to hate than to embrace, easier to fear than to try to understand. It's easier to listen to him than it is to think.

Answer 2

In a way yes.

As an ex-Republican and an ex-Rush Limbaugh listener, I can honestly state that Rush has the inept ability to motivate the hate and anger inside his listeners. I have experienced this from both sides of the aisle... just thankful I evolved past that and am now fully Democrat.

Answer 3

This response is more geared toward Burt T who replied earlier. First off to correct you, Rush became addicted to pain killers prescribed by doctors. He did not "force" his housekeeper to procure drugs for him he paid his housekeeper.

I never heard him berate anyone for being addicted to pain killers prescribed by doctors. That is much different than people who are out using illegal recreational drugs. As far as insinuating that he may still be using drugs, that is really ridiculous considering the mad-dog prosecutor in Florida.

As far as I can see, Laura Bush was involved in a traffic accident when she was 17 years old that, unfortunately, killed someone. Are you seriously comparing that to Ted Kennedy drunk driving off a bridge and drowning his pregnant girlfriend, leaving the scene of an accident and then not reporting it for nearly a full day?

Enough of this foolishness. You probably were never in the military, were never a Republican and never were a conservative. If you jokers on the left think this kind of marxist misinformation will sway a reasonably informed person, you truly are insane.

Answer 4

No.
