Rush Limbaugh And Dittoheads Try Unsuccessfully To Spin His Anti-Troop Comment

<...>

One day, I was kicking back on a rare day off, listening to Limbaugh ranting and raving about how the war was going so well and how “our brave military heros” were being deflated by the “driveby media”, blah, blah, blah — hey, at least I was able to keep my ear to the ground on what sort of rhetoric was being spewed back home by both the Democrats and Republicans, which is why I even bothered to listen to the doomass in the first place. As I was listening to Limbaugh drone on, a caller came on the line and identified himself as a military troop who’d just gotten back from Iraq, and he was appalled at the war rhetoric from the right. Without hesitation, without any “thank you for your service” (as he always greets any dittohead military member), he launched right into a tirade where he voiced doubts that the guy was even in the military at ALL as he bashed and bashed this guy for dissenting with his Commander-In-Chief. That was the last time I even bothered to listen to this idiot in “The Desert”.

Talk about disrespectful, this creep. There I was, serving side by side with brave troops from all sides of the political spectrum, many excited about the war and just as many fed up with it, and here the “Rush Limbaughs” and “Sean Hannitys” kept on taking advantage of the limitations upon free speech via the UCMJ in regards to the other half of the military while trying to stuff money into their coffers by misrepresenting the military as being composed of “right wing, pro-war, pro-Bush, Christian neocon warriors” with the rare and occasional, “fringe” dissenter amongst them. I was appalled then and I’m appalled now, even a few years later by their “we support the troops” crappla they’ve spewed for PERSONAL GAIN. SHAMEFUL. Yesterday’s comments by Mr. Limbaugh have brought to the forefront just how hypocritical and intolerant these right-wing, phony, SHOCK JOCKS really are when it comes to REALLY supporting the troops.

<...>

And, as could be predicted, and as alluded to earlier, this is a typical example of a dittohead trying to spin the cowardly, GUTLESS Limbaugh’s words - from The Weekly Standard’s Brian Faughnan entitled “What Limbaugh Said“, as if we don’t have our own set of ears:

What Limbaugh Said

The folks on the Left are beside themselves today–thinking that by dint of a truncated quote, they will succeed in shutting down Rush Limbaugh and taking him off the air. Before lining up next to the folks from Crooks and Liars, FireDogLake, Media Matters, ThinkProgress, Huffington Post, and the rest, at least read the full transcript. In Limbaugh’s comments after the exchange quoted by the left, he makes clear he is referring to people like Jesse MacBeth–a ‘phony soldier’ the left would understandably like to forget. …”

Let me be clear — Limbaugh’s words were not taken out of context at all. As I detailed above, Limbaugh and his other right-wing talk radio “warriors of Christ” have been bashing left-leaning troops and disrespecting them for YEARS and his disdain for half of the military was simply exposed to the masses yesterday, gaining long-overdue attention to the fact that these creeps have NEVER supported the ENTIRE military.

I’m not going to call for his voice to be silenced; to the contrary since the longer these gasseous WINDBAGS are allowed to speak, the more they dig their own graves. And in the spirit of my appreciation for capitalism, at least a slightly populist form of it, I choose NOT to do any business with his advertisers until they choose not to do business with Rush Limbaugh. I won’t be calling for any boycots, but if any of our readers wish to, here’s the short list of his advertisers and their contact information:

Do what you will with the above info. I was against the left when they called for the firing of Don Imus, I’m against the same thing here with Mr. Limbaugh, but on the other hand, whatever happens, the guy gets what he deserves.
