We'll go ahead and close this thread

[Joe the Revelator]

The lure of no thread limits caused me to possibly misjudge what actually needed a thread.

[Doctor_J]

1. OMFG.

:crazy:

[Hugabear]

2. Sorry, I will never give that assclown any points

What else is he going to say? The fact that he shows a human side doesn't make up for all of his years of asshatness.

[Joe the Revelator]

8. Oh I agree, he's still in the astronomically high negative numbers

However, it was nice of him to say, seeing how he like to pretend that everyone is a member of the "liberal media"

Sometimes, when things like this happen, I like to think we can rise above the partisanship for a day and give credit, and discredit, where its due.

[Hangingon]

3. Sad. Passing of a gentleman.

[cliffordu]

4. First a post about his44 and now Rush. What are you really about??

[Joe the Revelator]

6. Not burying my head in the sand, apparently....

I like to look at things from all angles. Try it sometime, it'll give you some perspective.

[cliffordu]

7. OK. Why post it here, then??

[Joe the Revelator]

9. Why not? This is a discussion board right? We're allowed to talk about stuff, right?

[redqueen]

10. This is the Presidential forum... and this really doesn't have anything

to do with the election, does it?

Maybe the rush praise should be moved to GD.

[Joe the Revelator]

11. Look at the entire forum right now. Everything is about Russert

I never post if GD, don't know the people over there, and would rather get opinions from people I "know".

[redqueen]

14. The OP is more about Rush than Russert. (nt)

[Joe the Revelator]

18. Possiably. If thats the way that everyone takes it, then I apologize

And the moderators are free to lock and close the thread.

[silverojo]

26. It's not "Rush praise"

It's the shock of seeing that fat fuck finally saying something that shows a little respect for another human being...rather than kicking them when they're down. Makes a nice change from, say, his revolting "imitation" of Michael J. Fox. :mad:

[redqueen]

35. It's saying "a point for rush".

Regardless, none of this Russert stuff belongs in here.

[Joe the Revelator]

47. Does it really bother you that much? That Russert stuff is being posted here?

Seriously?

[redqueen]

48. Does it seem like it?

:wtf:

[Joe the Revelator]

49. Yeah it does actually. You've taken the time to post twice now about what should or should not be

posted in the forum right now.

[redqueen]

50. Well sorry for giving you that impression.

Cause it doesn't really matter to me one way or the other. I was just commenting cause it's the Presidential forum, and all the Russert stuff really has nothing to do with the election.

:shrug:

[cliffordu]

13. Becoming an apologist for Rush is a bit much.

All the talking heads are making statements. Big deal.

Head on over to Fox and see what O'rielly has to say, why don'cha??

Ann Coulter should have a nice statement anytime soon.

[Joe the Revelator]

15. Nobody is apologizing for Rush.

I am capable of giving credit where it may be due. I'm sorry that offends your echo chamber view of the world. Feel free to hide the thread and put me on ignore, so in the future you won't have to see things from sides that you'd rather not.

[americanstranger]

17. 'Apologist' may be a little strong, Cliff.

File Rush's statement under 'blind squirrel finding nut' or 'stopped clock being right' or something.

Wolsh is a good guy. Slamming him as a Rush supporter is a bit much, IMHO.

[Joe the Revelator]

20. Thank you.

[americanstranger]

24. NP, Wolsh.

I hate Limbaugh just as much as anyone here and led one of the few effective boycotts against him when I was doing Take Back The Media.

I see his statement as part of the larger mosaic of tributes that Russert will receive. Just because we don't like Limbaugh, it's no reason not to recognize one of the few times in his miserable life where he shows a little class.

[cliffordu]

23. Maybe you're right - There just seems to be a lot of postings

like this one and what the ding dongs on Hill44 (his44?) are doing and saying today.

I could give a shit what those droolers say. If I wanted to, I'd go look.

[americanstranger]

27. I find it interesting to see what people are saying.

Not so much the His44 morons. I read two posts on that thread and ran away as fast as I could.

But there are other Repub operatives being quoted here today, and we're prolly in agreement that they're all pretty repulsive as human beings. But I find what they have to say at times like these to be interesting. YMMV.

5. What would Gush Slimebaugh know of 'objective journalist'?

so now gush slimebaugh is only -666,665 points in the hole.

[silverojo]

21. He knows how not to be one n/t

[polmaven]

12. WOW!

First O'Reilly gets a "Best Persons" from Olbermann and now this!

WHERE AM I? AND WHAT AM I DOING IN THIS HANDBASKET?????

[Catherine Vincent]

16. Who cares what he says about Russert? nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. This Is A Funny Thread

But I would be a big fat hypocrite if I didn't defend Wolsh and say I don't believe he likes Rush...

[mtnsnake]

22. Rush Limbbaugh doesn't deserve a point or anything else from us. He's one of the evilest fucks EVER

and partly responsible for so much of the hatred and divisiveness that exists in this country today.

[cliffordu]

25. DING DING DING We have a winner!!! Exactly right.

Why didn't the Lord take him instead?

[Joe the Revelator]

28. Now you're just being reactive

No one deserves to die before their time.

[cliffordu]

32. I was just kidding.....

Too bad bad taste is out of vogue. I wish Lenny Bruce was still here. The early Lenny...

[papapi]

34. Who's kidding? Russert's talents will be missed. The absence of Slimebaugh. . .

rants will be a blessing. The end of it can't come soon enough for me.

[cliffordu]

38. me too, really but keep it a secret, 'Kay??

:rofl:

[papapi]

40. K. My lips are sealed.

:hide:

[L0oniX]

41. Fuck political correctness ...I wish Limpballz and OLiely were dead.

:evilgrin:

[papapi]

43. They are dead, to me anyway.

[papapi]

30. I'd be willing to give him full responsiblity . . .

gush slimebaugh certainly won't be mourned by intelligent people when he leaves this planet.

[shadowknows69]

29. LMAO

Welcome to freedom Wolsh!!!! Spew away my friend!!!

[Joe the Revelator]

31. Stay tuned ....

:)

[charlie]

33. Hah, again

Looks like you took your high holy showboating a step too far. Give it a rest and just ascend bodily to heaven already.

[Joe the Revelator]

wtfau?

[charlie]

37. Indeed

wtfau?

[Blue-Jay]

36. My leg itches. I'm going to start a thread about it.

[papapi]

42. Maybe it needs lotion.

[Blue-Jay]

44. On it's skin?

[papapi]

45. Cha.

[cliffordu]

46. Or it gets the hose again....

[DemocratSinceBirth]

54. I Was Told If You Have An Itch Scratch It

Right...

You're talking about another kind of itch....

[Dharmacrat]

39. whatthewhosit?

[blondeatlast]

51. I know what the SL was. Kind of cowardly to pull the SL and not ask the mods

to delete the thread yourself.

[blondeatlast]

52. "To those I might have offended." Asshole. nt

[papapi]

53. Looking.

Ha! Fooled ya!
