It seems like you only hear calls for "respect for the office of the presidency" when theres a D by the presidents name

Fuck that

Beside that, he was being a dick.

One minute he is calling for elevating the political environment, the next minute he is comparing Republicans to his thirteen-year-old kid who wont do her homework

Fuck him, retire him already, he is a dirtbag who tells us one thing on Monday night and then the complete opposite on Tuesday morning.

Two days after scolding Congress, Obama heads to presidential retreat for holiday weekend...

What a mindless waste of air and space

I'm about as far from being an Obama fan as one can get... however, I don't believe it's right to refer to the President of the United States of America as a "dick' on national television.  There still needs to be some respect for the office of the presidency -- regardless of who's in it.

I'm hardly surprised by this... MSNBC went into the toilet a long time ago.

I remember all kinds of stories about him taking pills, I don't remember anything about him also being a dealer. Now there is a good chance I missed it and if I did there should be no problems with him finding the link.

You are getting worse, sport.  Limbaugh was a consumer, not a dealer.  He was an addict and developed into an addict because of extreme pain he was suffering.  I have represented a couple of dozen people just like him. People that get prescriptions from multiple pharmacies, people who buy it off of the street and even people that stole pages out of a doctor's prescription pad.  He IS an addict...like an alcoholic.

You know what disgusts me about you liberals?  You want all of this compassion for the weak who are generally just lazy.  You want tax dollars to support people and essentially indemnify them from their own poor choices that we now have to pay for.

But then when it comes to someone who slipped into addiction but has a different political perspective than you, well...that guy is a piece of shit and should be castigated.  In that way, you are a very repugnant person.

Before you say more disparaging things about Limbaugh, he has had a greater impact on society than you ever will.  He is respected by more people than you will ever even know or come into contact with.  His success could not be equaled by you if you lived 50 times and had the benefit of coming back as yourself to pick up where you left off.  The bottles of wine he is able to order and pay for with the cash in his pocket cost more than your boat.

If you think I am being a prick towards you....I'm not.  Don't feign compassion to support confiscatory taxation and then excoriate that kind of people you would normally argue for just because they have a different political perspective and world view.

Why would he be surprised that Limbaugh is a limp dick?

I thought everyone knew that.

What an absolutely amazing crock of horseshit!!!

Limbaugh repeatedly made the case that users were the problem and they should be locked up.

Yet we are to have compassion for the man who hid his own addictions while condemning other addicts?

You are patially right locked. He WAS just a consumer. The problem most folks have with Rush is his hypocricy. He was ranting on the radio about "White collar addicts need to be sent up the river" and going home day after day to take a handfull of the pills he was addicted to.

Had he done what Brett Favre, who was also addicted to pain killers at the same time and for the same reason did, I feel he would have been MUCH more respected by conservatives, accepted by moderates and not as castigated by liberals.

Man up, admit you have a problem and say "Hey folks, this thing is bigger than me so I'm going to have to take some time off and get better".

Did Rush do that? No. he took a page out of the "Hillary Clinton Playbook" and started talking about a vast left wing conspiracy to discredit him. The left didn't discredit him. His own words discredited him. Hell, he even had the ACLU defending him.

Whatever happened to that old conservative maxim of manning up and taking responsibility for one's own actions instead of "blaming others"?

You are right.  His first response should have been that he needed the medication for pain, he has developed and addiction and he needs help.  There is nothing wrong with doing a mea culpa.  It would not have necessarily helped Weiner nor Edwards but there has been a world of people that have made their lives more complicated by lying.

OK. Show us where a newscaster called Bush a dick, cock, penis, pussy, cunt, or any other form of reproductive organ.

If whatshisname had called Obama one of the quoted Bush monikers, he'd still be on the air.

Conservatives are funky about their sexual references.

[P.S. -- in no way am I defending MSNBC, which is nearly as bad as Fox in being a source of commentary vs. news, but presenting it as if news nonetheless.]

A few years ago, Rush was getting off a plane from a vacation in the Dominican Republic and a search found a bunch of viagra which wasn't prescribed to him (Face it, Viagra not prescribed to the person in posession is kinda common).  The Dominican Republic is kind of infamous as a destination for 'sex tourism' in this hemisphere (Like Bangcock in the eastern).  Unfortunately, their laws concerning underage sex aren't enforced and it has become a bit of a mecca for Dirty Old Men wanting something that would put you in jail for a long time here in the US.

Not proof but curcumstancially something he would jump all over if it was say a Democratic senator.
