Hehe... Limbaugh.. too many Oxy's today... hehe...
He's gone off the deep end again over the Foley thing. He goes from "it was a setup" to "I'm not defending him" to "there's not even a real problem with what he did" to they've (dems) defended it over the years" all in less than 60 seconds. Media Matters has the audio clip:
http://mediamatters.org/items/200610020013

Here is the gist of it:

LIMBAUGH: "I'm just thinking out loud here. What if somebody got to the page and said, you know, we want you to set Foley up. We need to do a little titillating thing here. Keep it and save it and so forth. How would you get a kid to do that? Yeah, who knows? You threaten him or pay him. There's any number of ways given the kind of people that we're dealing with and talking about here.

Now, folks, I don't want to be misunderstood here. I'm not trying to mount any kind of a defense. That's a bad word. I'm not trying to get into a defense of what Mark Foley did. Please don't misunderstand. I'm just telling you that the -- the -- the orgy and the orgasm that has been taking place in the media since Friday and with the Democrats is -- it's all coordinated, and it's all -- it's all oriented toward the election. There's no concern about the kid -- no concern about the children.

There is -- there is -- there's not even any real problem with what Foley did, as we've discussed. In their hearts and minds and their crotches, they don't have any problem with what Foley did. They've defended it over the -- over the years."


A tip for you Rush, your audience isn't as high as you are, you are going to need to start making complete, coherent thoughts or they'll end up listening to O'Reilly, who was brave enough to blame the Pages...

1. No concern about the children Rush?
Then why don't you call on Foley to make a public apology to his victim?

3. This is a prime example of why there needs to be an investigation
right away. I'm looking forward to hearing about the other congressmen involved (per ABC). By the time the rightwing idiots permeating the public airwaves are done with their demented spin, they will have hung themselves.

I'm still wondering about that excursion Oxycontin took alone to the Dominican Republic when he got arrested for those forged prescriptions of Viagara. I think this Foley matter has struck a nerve with him.

:puke:

I had the impression that he couldn't believe his own words and kept throwing out more b.s. Anything to shrink the elephant (!) in the room.
Train wreck, train wreck.

6. Holy shit, I have to post again.
What kind of "setup" can a 16 year old boy do where you instigate a conversation about feeling horny, and the kid tries to sort of push you off? God what a fuck-dip-tard.

10. These GD 16 year olds will run the world yet.
Just think of the power they have? It is so scary. Next to the terrorist now we have to worry about 16 year old pages.

14. he's not trying to "mount any defense"
but my money says he'd mount an underage boy on a trip to the Dominican while jacked up on Viagra.

Just thinkin' out loud here.

15. Remember...this is the same man...
Edited on Tue Oct-03-06 05:24 AM by TwoSparkles
...who said that Vince Foster was murdered in an apartment owned by Hillary Clinton.

Limbaugh's rattlings are bread crumbs--for the Republican base--that lead to the polls.

Limbaugh fully understands that this scandal could infuriate Republicans, so much so that they stay home on election day.

He's attempting to use Mark Foley's pedophilia to enrage the base into voting. Isn't that rich?

It's not going to work. He sounds utterly ridiculous. His rantings are intellectually inconsistent. Limbaugh is saying that the Dems set up Foley. However, Foley has been instant messaging and emailing multiple pages for years. This is Foley's doing. Not any Democrat's.

Furthermore, Democrats didn't even know about this. Hastert never informed Pelosi about this. Foley was a Republican dirty secret that had been kept for years. No Dem knew about this.

How ridiculous to suggest that this was some kind of Dem-orchestrated pedophile trap. Did the Dems make Foley discuss masturbation? Did the Dems force Foley to call a 15-year old boy a "hot stud" while setting up dates with him? It's ridiculous.

They'll nail Clinton to the wall--for his affair with an adult intern. However, when one of their own goes after a 15-year old boy---again, it's the Democrats' fault.

I think enough Republicans and Dems understand very well that Rush is full of horseshit on this one.

Limbaugh and the Republicans are desperately scrambling to do damage control. They look like fools. Let's just sit back and giggle while these clowns turn a pedophilia scandal into an even bigger scandal---as they minimize, rationalize and blame others for pedophilia in their own party.

19. petard hoisting time?

Some day, some day, the muck will pull Limbaugh under and drown him. If this issue can be part of the cleansing, we'll all be better off.

16. This is the most vile...
"I'm not defending him" to "there's not even a real problem with what he did" to they've (dems) defended it over the years".

I heard Rush say this. He's suggesting that the Dems have no problem with 45-year old men going after 15-year-old boys. He says we've defended pedophilia.

Those are sickening lies.

He's attempting to equate Clinton's affair with an intern---to a middle-aged man going after a teenager. Another sickening lie.

If Limbaugh doesn't see the difference between sex between adults and pedophilia---then he's probably a pedophile himself.

And anyway...who defended Clinton? I think we all accepted that what he did was wrong. Who defended Clinton's affair? No Democrat ever stood up and said that what Clinton did was ok. Not one.

Rush is so full of shit. The problem is--his audience is so gullible that they won't see the glaring hypocrisy that saturates most of Limbaugh's mindless ramblings. They'll think he's just brilliant for saying these things and they'll be parroting these musings like drooling robots.

So bizarre.

17. Gee, the Dems didn't even have to
subpeona the kid, threaten to withhold treatment to his mother (like they did with Lewinsky when her mother had health issues), take him into custody, lock him in an interrogation room for hours on end with no bathroom breaks until they forced a signed statement from him and threaten him if the kid ever spoke ill of the "captors" ...\

Wow, for a bunch of "losers", we're pretty persuasive, aren't we?
