I have not posted in a while but this was just too much of a motivation that I just had to write about the latest Rush Limbaugh SHIT SPOUTING SPEWING from his radio show.
Today Rush Limbaugh attacked those criticizing his dumb ass statements and is not backing down from his claim that President Obama is trying to score political points off the earthquake in Haiti.
Challenged by a caller during his show Thursday, Limbaugh said: “If I said it, I meant to say it, and I do believe that everything is political to this president.”
“Everything this president sees is a political opportunity, including Haiti, and he will use it to burnish his credentials with minorities in this country and around the world, and to accuse Republicans of having no compassion.”
I am pleased to say that Limbaugh has come under fire from both the RIGHT and the LEFT for saying that the earthquake played directly into President Obama’s hands, allowing him to look “compassionate.” The host claimed the White House’s response would bolster Obama’s standing in the “light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country.”
He also appeared to discourage help for the island nation, saying, “We've already donated to Haiti. It’s called the U.S. income tax.”
Critics have characterized Limbaugh’s comments as insensitive and tone-deaf at a time when heartbreaking images of the devastation dominate news coverage.
Confronted with some of that criticism, Limbaugh slammed a caller as “close-minded.”
In Rush Limbaugh’s own brilliant debating technique went on to say, “What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a blockhead,” Limbaugh shot back. “What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a close-minded bigot who is ill-informed.”
“If you had listened to this program for a modicum of time, you would know it,” he said. “But instead, you’re a blockhead. Your mind is totally closed. You have tampons in your ears. Nothing is getting through other than the biased crap that you read.”
Yes Rush, what a brilliant logical debating retort showing how complete your debating skill are. Now go overdose on what ever your drug of choice is at this time and continue with your everyday bantering on how brilliant you are.
Limbaugh is a symptom of a national disease...let's do our best to stop it from becoming a plague...we have to work to contain it with intelligence and empathy.
ReplyDeleteJerkinoids like him banalize greed and race hatred and make it appear normal for the spineless wimps who listen to him. This lazy, blame it on everyone else, it's not my fault...don't lay your "white guilt" trip on me syndrome are all symptoms of the disease.
It can be treated....but the cure, reality, is a real bitch!
the cure for Limbaugh (and Pat Robertson) is a massive stroke.
ReplyDeleteI hope it's soon, painful, and fatal.
More examples of the banalization of racism and greed and the cynical political exploitation of the situation by the right:
ReplyDeleteBeck claims that the presidents rapid response to the Haitian earthquake is polarizing the country. Why did he have to stop and "think" about Afghanistan?
Rep. King states that illegal Haitian immigrants in the USA should be immediately rounded up and sent back to Haiti to work as in the relief effort, instead of using American troops!
There is always selfishness presented as self interestin conservative politics, but the level of the desensitivation of our humanitarian feelings for the immediate political gain here is nothing short of chronic.
There is something so psychologically perverse here...a cycle of self abuse that can only be temporarily relieved by abusing others.
In the end, if this plague spreads, America will become its own perfect victim.
The poroblem, gentlemen as I see it, is that there is a large and hungry audience waiting for these miscreants to throw them pieces of raw meat so that they can get on with their miserable lives.
ReplyDeleteIt's like the crack addict or alcoholic- they need a 'fix' from time to time so that they don't have to face the ugly reality of the life they live.
These paid shills provide that fix.
