Owner59 -> Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 6:39:35 PM)

LIMBAUGH: As the economy performs worse than expected, the deficit for the 2010 budget year beginning in October will worsen by $87 billion to $1.3 trillion. The deterioration reflects lower tax revenues and higher costs for bank failures, unemployment benefits and food stamps. But in the Oval Office of the White House none of this is a problem. This is the objective. The objective is unemployment. The objective is more food stamp benefits. The objective is more unemployment benefits. The objective is an expanding welfare state. And the objective is to take the nation’s wealth and return to it to the nation’s quote, “rightful owners.” Think reparations. Think forced reparations here if you want to understand what actually is going on.


"The objective "?!

"Reparations"?!

WTF is he talking about?

Who is he talking about?

And Obama is turning things around.It was his guy bush who fucked up!!

Is this the new strategy?Pretend bush never happened and blame Obama for everything?

The idiot did what he does best- now we're talking about him. Let's just assume he doesn't exist and read "The Onion".




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 6:42:41 PM)

I didn't know the fat junkie had such a vivid and creative imagination.

A one trick pony...performing his one trick.Pay him no mind.




Lucylastic -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 6:51:43 PM)

I agree with Darklight, except to say I honestly think we will hear a lot worse from him, pretty tame..he musta had a bad day.




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 7:15:18 PM)

Gonna be a fun 4 years, eh? We should start some sort of a pool to keep a running tally of his rising blood pressure, with the winner being whomever comes closest to guessing the week in which the top of his head explodes in a big pink cloud,. like the spouting of a lung-struck whale. 




Sanity -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 9:38:02 PM)


RUSH has gone too far, huh?

He has no right to an opinion?

After all, it's not like he called the president a terrorist or anything. Not like he said he wished the president would die - nothing like that.

Now Rush has gone to far.


Honestly, I think it's rather amusing to see you so discomfited by one man's words.  Do you really feel so threatened by him?

If Obama is truly loved by the masses, pleasing the majority with his wondrous works, and leading this country into Utopia, what possible harm can one crack-pot, overweight, rabid, drug-abusing, extremist neo-con possibly do? 

Why... based on the vocal liberal posters here, the Republican party is falling apart and in its death throes anyway.  Who cares what one soon-to-be has been says?

Besides, last I checked, this country still has free speech. 

For the time being, anyway.




Sanity -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 9:53:39 PM)


That's it - that's the big bad Rush Limbaugh. That's what the left runs from, screaming at he top of their lungs...

Political commentary.

Edited to add, I really wouldn't trust 059's sources though, they're obviously very partisan far left websites. Those may or may not be Rush's words, there's no way to know.

Oh I'm sorry. I didn't mean to start a political bashing. I personally have distaste for Rush, but that doesn't mean that he doesn't entertain some.

Now I don't know if I'm left, right, liberal or not...I call 'em as I see 'em, so please don't say I'm this or that running somewhere. Or do, I don't care, but I didn't want to start any sort of bashing.




ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 10:11:42 PM)

It would be a mistake to confuse jeering and derision with fear and fleeing.

Why... based on the vocal liberal posters here,

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Owner59 -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 10:35:47 PM)

I guess this puts to rest any doubt that Rush does want Obama to fail and obviously wants America to fail.....

Now ,about Rush Limbaugh's kidneys?....[:D]




ThatDaveGuy69 -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 10:49:37 PM)

"Those may or may not be Rush's words, there's no way to know. "

Huh?  Don't they record and/or re-broadcast his shows? And can't you order a written transcript? 
Of course I'm sure it was all taken out of context and just a big missunderstanding.  Rush is SO vague in his commentary...

Every time I hear the word  "reparations" shouted it is by someone trying to start an argument about "blacks and reparations for slavery."  Limbaugh must be running out of material.




BKSir -> RE: Now Rush has gone to far. (5/12/2009 11:19:09 PM)

Owner, I could have told you that lunatic went off the deep end a LONG time ago.  He hasn't actually made sense since about 1998.  Just proof that drugs do, indeed, kill brain cells.

I'm afraid that the only thing "obvious" here is something else. Rush has stated, repeatedly, and somewhat amused (though not entirely surprised) to find it necessary, that his reason for saying that he hopes Obama fails is because he wants America to succeed.

Rush views Obama as a socialist. Accordingly, he characterizes governmental redistribution of wealth schemes as a form of forced reparations (so to speak) for the 'oppression' inflicted upon the 'proletariat' by their 'evil capitalist' overlords.
