ORIGINAL: Musicmystery quote:
"They are kooks, so I agree with Rush Limbaugh," she said, when read a quote of Limbaugh calling liberal groups "retards." "Rush Limbaugh was using satire ... . I didn't hear Rush Limbaugh calling a group of people whom he did not agree with 'f-ing retards,' and we did know that Rahm Emanuel, as has been reported, did say that. There is a big difference there." Yeah. Sure is. One's a liberal and one's a conservative. But no doubt Rich and Sanity will be along soon to lament her double standard. Screw the double standard, both uses of the word were wrong. However, there is a difference between an "entertainer" (if that is what he is going by these days) and a presidential appointee... Or did I miss that somewheres. I seem to remember a bunch of lecturing going on these very forums by some folks about that during the last administration. Not pointing any fingers Tim, just an oppurtune post to point out the "double standard". *Pardon the spelling and grammar.
