Rush told me that if they don't back the war 110% then they aren't real soldiers. I don't see a lot of "rah rah rah, shish boom bah" going on.

He. Never. Said. That.

And I suspect you know that, but it's easy to lie because nobody on this board will call bullshit.

"Bullshit."
Click to expand...

Call bullshit all you want. You're wrong. You and others have called bullshit and still been wrong about it. You're wrong tonight. You'll be wrong tomorrow. And you'll be wrong as long as you perpetuate the lies and bullshit carried on by that hypocritical blowhard. Nothing was taken out of context. He's simply trying to change the context to suit his sullied name.

Because Flying Headbutt wishes it were so.

Than I guess you think Hunter Thompson was intellectually vacuous.

You think Rush is a fraud only because he's got the forum, the audience and the bucks, but not your beliefs.

You're bringing Thompson into this debate? Why not bring in John Lennon or Abbie Hoffman?

Rush is a demagogue who appeals to the basest instincts of Americans.

He has the intellectual depth of a piece of plywood.

If you want to align yourself with a guy who uses the phrase "feminazis", be my guest.

It just diminishes you.

I'll be the judge of what diminishes or enriches me, thank you very much. Or are you in the Fenian camp, the type of person who believes they know what's best for everyone but themselves.
Feminazis just happens to be a dead-on description of some of those ladies in the feminist movement, who also want to decide what's best for everyone else.
Again, don't mistake someone with whom you disagree with lacking intellectual capacity. It proves that your depth isn't any more than that piece of plywood.

Am I going to Hell for laughing at that?

Flying Headbutt · Oct 29, 2007

No, I wish Rush were far more supportive of dissenting views. That's what I wish. Tony, you seem like a pretty fun guy and are probably a hell of a guy to hang out with. And I've long and often said I have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for some of the things Limbaugh has done over the years to become the success he's made himself. But despite that, I don't often agree with what he says. I wish he was less of a water carryer for the GOP, as he admitted shortly after the elections last year, and spoke his mind out about what he really believed.

But a leopard doesn't change his spots. And having heard what Rush said, full context and everything, no matter how others on the right try and spin it, it's exactly what he said. Look, I'll call it the way I see it. Heck, I fully intend to vote Republican at the state and local level, but Democrat beyond that. So I'm not left-wing looney. And Limbaugh said exactly what he said, and meant it too.

But beyond all that, how about the article? Did anyone else react the same way I did to it?

Nope, but if I did believe in the afterlife, I'd wish a trip to hell for those who flippantly use the term "Nazi" without any regard for what the term represents.

Ever hear of the term "Inside joke"? It happens when people have a history. You can claim all you want about a transcript, but the transcript doesn't include previous segments or shows. People who listen to his show knew exactly what he was saying. They knew he was referring to McBeth and guys just like him. He'd done a morning update on it the day before. You are choosing to ignore that simply because you don't like him.

Fenian_Bastard · Oct 29, 2007

Oh, so it's the secret Rush code in which he was speaking, Or in those frequencies only Dittoheads can hear.
Sorry.
He didn't cobble together the lame excuse, and the edited transcripts, until after it hit really hit the fan. The idea that he's fundamentally too decent and honorable to have done what he clearly did is laughable. Ask Michael J. Fox. And the way he responded -- fake tapes, threadbare alibis -- are of a piece with a number of other examples of his public cowardice.

Oh, please ... how many times have liberals of the moveon.org or daily kos stripe thrown around Nazi and Hitler in relation to Bush? Give me a fuckin break.

Flying Headbutt · Oct 29, 2007

How many times were they right to use it as well?

Fenian_Bastard · Oct 29, 2007

Gee, I don't know, hondo, but I suspect that the Good Doctor is not one of them.
Look, over here, shiny keys and an irrelevant non-parallel!
