Oh look! Rush is all pensive and remorseful on his website. Now I'll just say that last week I tried some vicodin to see if it was all it was cracked up to be. People actually choose to get high on that shit??!!! All it did was give me a headache. Amateurs.

Will Rush's follwers offer me their hand of sympathy and understanding?? C'mon. I need help!!! Understand meeee.... (to quote Martin Gore of Depeche Mode) :lol:

And for those of you (like myself) who had only a limited amount of knowledge about Limbaugh.
HERE HE IS IN HIS OWN WORDS.

quote:
Originally uttered by Limbaugh

Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream.
--Rush Limbaugh

Enraging liberals is simply one of the more enjoyable side effects of my wisdom
--Rush Limbaugh [wink]

On NAFTA: "If we are going to start rewarding no skills and stupid
people--I'm serious, let the unskilled jobs, let the kinds of jobs
that take absolutely no knowledge whatsoever to do--let stupid and
unskilled Mexicans do that work." (Radio show quoted in FRQ, Fall/93) -

Speculating on why a Mexican national won the New York marathon: "An
immigration agent chased him for the last 10 miles." (USA Weekend,
1/26/92)

This is asinine! A Caesar Chavez Day in California? Wasn't he
convicted of a crime?" (Quoted in FRQ, Winter/94)

"Kurt Cobain was, ladies and gentleman, I just--he was a worthless
shred of human debris..." (TV show, 4/11/94)

"Why is it that whenever a corporation fires workers it is never
speculated that the workers might have deserved it?" (Ought to Be,
p.275)

"When a gay person turns his back on you, it is anything but an insult
; it's an invitation." (Quoted in FRQ, Summer/94)

One of my fabulous routines concerns a San Francisco men’s club which lost its battle to exclude women from membership. The courts ruled that they had to admit women on the basis that businesswomen were being unfairly denied opportunities to do business. This is specious. How much business did women think they were going to get as a result of forcing their way in?
Anyway, after one year, the female members demanded their own exercise room. They were probably tired of being ogled by a bunch of slobbering men while they pumped iron in leotards and spandex. The men offered to install the first three exercise machines in the women’s new workout room. The ladies were thrilled. When they arrived on that first exciting day they found, to their stunned amazement, a washing machine, an ironing board, and a vacuum cleaner. Heh, heh, heh. [no no no]

Let me leave you with a thought that honestly summarizes my sentiments: I love the women’s movement. especially when I am walking behind it.

"As a young broadcaster in the 1970s, Limbaugh once told a black caller:

"Take that bone out of your nose and call me back." -

A decade ago, after becoming nationally syndicated, he mused on the air:

"Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"

In 1992, on his now-defunct TV show, Limbaugh expressed his ire when Spike Lee urged that black schoolchildren get off from school to see his film Malcolm X:

"Spike, if you're going to do that, let's complete the education experience. You should tell them that they should loot the theater, and then blow it up on their way out."

In a similar vein, here is Limbaugh's mocking take on the NAACP, a group with a ninety-year commitment to nonviolence:

"The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies."

On the idea that blacks need to be heard:

"They are 12 percent of the population. Who the hell cares?"

"When you strip it all away," Rush had said of the Grateful Dead guitarist, "Jerry Garcia destroyed his life on drugs. And yet he's being honored, like some godlike figure. Our priorities are out of whack, folks."
RUSH LIMBAUGH

It's beyond me how anybody can look at these protesters and call them anything other than what they are: anti-American, anti-capitalist, pro Marxists and communists." - Rush Limbaugh

Our armed forces shouldn’t be over there - they’re good at killing people and blowing things up, not peace-keeping."
--Rush Limbaugh on Clinton’s deployment of troops to Bosnia.


The most beautiful thing about a tree is what you do with it after you cut it down.

Compassion is no substitute for justice.

There's a simple way to solve the crime problem: obey the law; punish those who do not.


If you commit a crime, you are guilty.

"the media has been very desirous of a black quarterback to do well".

" "the sports media, being liberals just like liberal media is elsewhere, have a desire that black quarterbacks excel and do very well so that their claims that blacks are being denied opportunity can be validated."


Wotta guy!!!

I'd post some more drug quotes from this P.O.S. but they all seem to be mysteriously dissapearing as of late from the conservative websites I'm visiting. One site even went as far as saying that Rush has no position on drugs! His actual stance has most likely been removed in anticipation of me and like minded people using his hypocrisy against him. I thought they certainly could take what they dish out but I guess I was mistaken.

Ok... Now i'm officially taking glee. What do you expect after researching and reading some of the blatantly offensive comments this jerk makes and is applauded for it by his "dittoheads". Before this I was only mildly aware of Limbaugh, (mostly by reputation as a famous right wing propagandist), as KABC, the local right wing AM channel doesn't carry him (KFI does). Nice to see Limbaugh embodies all negative sterotypes I have of conservative white men. You can only imagine what I now think of his audience who is undobtedly chortling along as they commute listening to his racism, sexism, and intolerance.

Of course though this shall be short lived as even now Limbaugh is undoubtedly sequestered trying to concoct a Chappaquidick defense for dittohead consumption. One which i'm sure will involve "liberals" trying to "get him" for speaking *ahem* the truth.
