Rush Limbaugh is not funny when he is desperate....
istening to him in the background, I do not hear any humor or comedy? All I hear is the desperation in the shrill voice of a nervous propagandist with a boil on his butt. He's intent on telling his devoted dittohead listeners about those "socialist" Democrats and how wrong Mike Moore is with his piece of "propaganda"?? :) I guess he is funny...not funny ha-ha, but funny-I'm so fucking stupid-funny...

2. Good....
some of my hard-core conservative co-workers used to tell me (especially when I cornered them on an obvious Limbaugh lie) that they listen to Rush because he's entertaining.

The more desperate he becomes. The more shrill he becomes. The most serious he becomes...... the less entertaining he will become.

I can't wait to see the effects of his pending drig arraignment and Air America have on his arbitron ratings.

3. I've been listening to fat ass for 10 years...
And his peak was when the Monica scandal was front page news. After that he is all down hill. It probably hasn't been a good year for El Drugbo with his divorce and legal woes. Let's hope Marta cleans his ass out.... :toast:

Mary you missed all the fun.. Get this Marta and him have been married for 10 years so the prenup is probably no longer valid. And the divorce happened just around the 10 year mark. Also she knows all the skeletons in his closet and could potentially write a tell all book. He has also take out several ads in a newspaper proclaiming himself as the victim of an investigation for doctor shoping.

And he shows are a total joke, many times in his program he is incohesive and confused....Wonder if he is still trying to sneak in some oxy.hehehehe

But to tell you the truth, I would rather that he remain in the top spot as he is the devil I/we know. It's all downhill from there with the likes of Mike Weiner Savage who totally scares me with his speech..

4. he's not even funny
when he isn't desperate... :evilgrin:

I tune in on my ride home, but never more than a few seconds -- although I did make it through 5 whole minutes before I had to :puke:

Rush is crashing -- drug charges may be pending, marriage crashed and burned, and he's spending his own money to publish full size ads in the paper for his rants about being a victim of an evil-vast-left-wing conspiracy...

poor Rush, once the icon of RW-radio-rants, expounding the virtues of family values and taking responsibility for one's own action --- and now we discover that he's a druggie with a failed marriage and it's all someone else's fault

:nopity:

12. Correction: THREE failed marriages
He's got no money or employment worries, no kids to worry about, and he still can't make any of his marriages work. And yet he acts like he is SO MUCH ABOVE Mr. or Ms. Regular Person.

although they cut it our of the movie:

"Whale shit eventually floats to the surface."

It looks like that day may be at hand.

10. He didn't say that.
Maybe "The surface, eventually to, the whale shit floats, it does..."

Yoda flunked diagramming sentences in high school....:-)

7. Years ago, I remember one time I thought he was funny:
the sketch he did of Ross Perot to the "Coming to Take Me Away, ahh hahh" song from the late 60s, early 70s... It was actually pretty funny. I only heard that by accident and don't think I've listened to him sense, except excerpts.

Can't imagine anyone thinking of Saudi Arabia as "free" anything.

13. He's correct...
It's the Beacon of Freedom for the powerful to do what ever they dam well please. It's probably the perfect country from a bushita's point of view.

14. Rush is over the Hill, a has been, a dwindling star who has lost its
luster.

His shrill demogogery is pathetic and sickening. Only the misled Sheep listen to the Nazi crap.

America is waking up and the Rush Guys are trying their best to keep us in bed. Too little too late.

F9/11, and other books/films are on the cusp of getting Americans to THIMK.

He's finished. They have some local wingnut in his spot. Actually worse than the G man, but surely Rush won't be far behind.

18. I've heard this before...
...from other O'Republicans, that Moore spreads "propaganda."

But from what I understand of the term, propaganda is produced by a government... is that correct?

19. Propaganda -
1. The systematic propagation of a doctrine or cause or of information reflecting the views and interests of those advocating such a doctrine or cause.
2. Material disseminated by the advocates or opponents of a doctrine or cause: wartime propaganda.
3. Propaganda Roman Catholic Church. A division of the Roman Curia that has authority in the matter of preaching the gospel, of establishing the Church in non-Christian countries, and of administering Church missions in territories where there is no properly organized hierarchy.


Which definition most closely resembles the propaganda of F911?

24. the "F9/11 is propaganda!" argument is sooooooo fucking weak...
... especially when it comes from FOX talking heads, who apparently have had their senses of irony surgically removed.

Edited on Wed Jun-30-04 07:40 PM by Cyrano
crap. First of all the turd isn't down. He's still out there spewing poison. Second, this particular wingnut has broken every "don't kick them when their down" rule. Third, I don't think I can ever forgive a man who called Chelsea Clinton a "dog" when she was 13 years old.

This particular discussion (battle) isn't over until this dangerous right-wing propagandist thug is exposed for the lying, corrupt, unscrupulous, despicable, ogre that he is.

Don't get caught up in any "desperation" fantasies. This particular piece of shit will keep coming back until most of the people in this country realize that he's something that you really need to wipe off the bottom of your shoe after you stepped into it.
