On Rush Limbaugh passing. Most won't agree with this?

[imanamerican63]

I don’t wish cancer on anyone. Many of friends and family members have gone thru horrible diseases and deaths. I am sure we all have? They went a lot pain and suffering. I only hope that if we had to get thru anything like this? We won’t have anyone tearing us up after we are gone. I never like the man, his views nor his pathetic rhetoric or will I miss him! But his death is not a joking matter. So, move on! There are more rotten people to make fun of!

[lpbk2713]

1. Many people are worthy of pity.

Limbaugh was not one of them.

He would have laughed at your friends and family
if he had reason to believe they leaned left.

[jrthin]

3. +1000

[Mattgoetznolovefromm]

2. Nope

He facilitated the death of and injury to at least hundreds of thousands of people. Piss on him.

[Mr.Bill]

17. Exactly.

He told people the Pandemic was the common cold.

[Jirel]

4. Nope.

No pity for those who ARE a stage 4 cancer themselves.

[SharonClark]

5. Death comes to everyone and that's not the issue.

His was a horrible person who revealed in lies and demeaning people. His death means there is one less despicable person on earth. That’s a good thing.

[Rorey]

14. Agree

A couple of years ago my then-husband told me that his good friend Tex had died. My response: "Good. One less racist asshole." My hatred for Tex began moments after I met him. Shortly after the introduction, he started in on racist comments and spewing hatred. I told my then-husband I never wanted him in my house again. So, yeah, I was happy to hear he had croaked.

[muntrv]

6. Rush Limbaugh denied smoking causes cancer.

No sympathy for him.

[XanaDUer2]

60. God, he said that?

duh

[Rorey]

7. Who are these "more rotten people" that we're allowed to make fun of?

He CAUSED a lot of pain, so I'm not going to feel bad about whatever I'm inclined to say about him just because of his cause of death.

[Happy Hoosier]

8. Choose to be somber if you wish. In my view....

... that man's death is cause for joy. He was a terrible, terrible person and this world is better off without him sucking up resources.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

9. He was a piece of shit while he was alive.

I didn't wish cancer or any harm on him while he was alive. I won't pretend to mourn him now that he's croaked. I'm glad the world is rid of him.

[catbyte]

10. Sorry, but I refuse to waste my pity on the most toxic voice in American media. He did more

to poison political discourse in this country than Rupert Murdoch. I'm not rejoicing, but I couldn't care less that he's gone. That might make me a bad person, but it is what it is.

[louslobbs]

34. It makes you human

And in my opinion, you are a pretty extraordinary human. I can’t tell you how many times your posts have lifted me up and helped me move past a bad day. Some days, the last thing I do is watch one of the videos you posted, and it leaves me feeling peaceful and thankful. Thank you catbyte.

[catbyte]

57. Oh, thank you so much for that.

It means so much to me to know that they help you, too. Things have gotten better since January 20, but there's still a lot of awful out there. Take care, my friend.

[sfstaxprep]

11. I'm Happy

Sorry, Big Smile on my face.

[Autumn]

12. I don't mind making fun of a dead and rotten asshole.

He deserved it so fuck him.

[maxrandb]

13. Name me one person "more rotten" than that prick

[rustbeltvoice]

28. Gingrich

[Cartoonist]

41. Rupert and Mitch

Here's hoping death comes in 3's

[Moostache]

42. Pick a Trump...any of them (save Baron, so far...) (n/t)

[maxrandb]

48. All the folks named so far spawned from that evil fuckstick

No Rush, then there's no Newt, no Mitch, none of the Donnie Dipshit KKKlan, no Sarah Palin, no Hannity, Levin, Ingraham, no Dr. Laura Schlessinger, no cookie-cutter local hatemongers on every fucking station...

Also, there were dozens of racists ass Retrumplican Congressman who got their starts as Limbaugh wannabees on local radio, including fucking Mike Pence

so yeah, other than Ray-Gun killing the Fairness Doctrine and his run if corporate conservative welfare policies, I find it hard to find a more rotten POS than this dead Asspickle.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

15. Nope

"I only hope that if we had to get thru anything like this? We won’t have anyone tearing us up after we are gone."

Then do something good when you're alive to leave a hopeful and positive legacy. Limbaugh will get his honors from the right-wing. Let that be good enough.

[Mike 03]

16. Nobody will tear you apart after you're gone because you're a good person.

I very rarely find myself in disagreement with your posts, but this time I gently and respectfully take issue.

His rhetoric irrevocably altered the neuronal structure of tens of millions of American minds, transforming them from free thinkers into lobotomized propagandists.

He attacked good and decent people, some of whom had nothing to do with politics whatsoever, and cultivated actual widespread hatred for them. He practically celebrated the suicide of Kurt Cobain.

There is also strong circumstantial evidence he traveled to the Dominican Republic on sex tours to take advantage of minors. So today I think about those kids too and wonder what has become of them.

And things that may now come to light now that he's dead.

[Aristus]

18. My father died of pancreatic cancer. I've seen the suffering cancer causes up close.

My father was not always the kindest of men. But he spent his life as a healer, saving the lives of others.

Rush Limbaugh was a heartless monster, and if he was in agony at the end, I won't be the one to say he didn't deserve it.

[ooky]

38. My mom too. Worst 3 months of my life from her diagnosis

to her death. It still haunts my thoughts.

[Peregrine Took]

19. He was a terribly cruel and devisive force in our political dialogue.

May God have mercy on his soul.

[Thekaspervote]

20. Ding dong the witch is dead which ol witch..the wicked witch..he was wicked!!

[LuvNewcastle]

21. The only thing sad about this occasion is that

it didn't happen 30 years ago. He's done incalculable damage to our country and I'm not sure we'll recover from all the evil shit he said and the hate he stirred up. When an evil man dies, that is a great thing, and an occasion to celebrate!

[nevergiveup]

22. I am very happy he is dead because

the fact of the matter is that now he is gone the world is a better place and I am always very happy with events that make the world a better place.

[rustbeltvoice]

23. spitsttt.....

I thought i heard a sizzle. Rushed off and died, thirty years too late. He was unfit for anyplace other than Hell. Thanx Reagan.

[empedocles]

24. Without rush to inflict pain with his insults, etc. the earth is a better place,

[Trueblue Texan]

25. I don't wish cancer on anyone either...

But I’m glad that maggot is dead, whatever the cause.

[Drahthaardogs]

26. The only thing I am sorry is that the sick fuck

Had the means to ease his suffering at the end

[ChubbyStar]

55. Bravo!

The ending would have been better if he died in a gutter.

[solara]

27. I don't want to make fun of Rush, but

I will say his lonely legacy is pathetic & tainted. His bloated soul was consumed with hate, racism, misogyny, self righteous delusions plus he was a liar & a bully.

Yet, at the beginning of his life, he was somebody's sweet innocent baby. Hard to imagine, isn't it? What a filthy waste.

[Mr.Bill]

29. Having that large of an audience

comes with some responsibility. He showed no sense of that.

[arlyellowdog]

30. To misquote Bette Davis

Only say good things about the dead. Rush Limbaugh is dead....good.

[lynintenn]

31. He had enough oxy at his disposal he probable never suffered as much pain

as many who suffer from cancer and other debilitating ailments are never privileged to receive. When I had whooping cough my doctor prescribed Tussinex which has hydrocodone in it. a bottle cost $67.00. Medicare will not pay for some narcotics.

[MoonRiver]

32. I'm glad he's dead. NUFF SAID

[rickyhall]

33. He got what he deserved. He was a cancer to America.

[USALiberal]

35. Nope! Nice try! Nt

[BGBD]

36. It's too bad

He lived this long.

Would have been better off had he got hit by a bus when he was about 20.

[Rustyeye77]

37. I agree 1000%

I don’t wish anyone dead.

[cwydro]

39. Good on ya.

[we can do it]

40. Only one person I can think of is more rotten.

[Captain Stern]

43. His death isn't a joking matter.

But, the world is a better place without him in it.

I'm not joking.

[GoCubsGo]

44. Meh, he's one of the reasons this country is in the shape it is in.

He spent decades fomenting the hatred that led to the insurrection on 1/6, along with a whole lot of other things that caused much needless pain suffering. He was a cancer on this country. I won't dance on his grave, but I'm not going to try to stand in the way of anyone else who wants to do so.

[Moostache]

45. I am glad the world has bigger people in it, people with empathy unshakeable such as you show...

I, however, am not in that select group. My human frailties are overwhelming and my reservoir of empathy too shallow to extend to some people...

I have had cancer once, and lost my mother to it and COVID-19 just 90+ days ago. I saw its wrath, and have felt the cold clammy hand of fate on my own shoulders...but I rejoice that it stalked, wounded, hunted and killed that piece of shit Limbaugh. I only wish listening to him was an actual carcinogen instead of simply a mental carcinogen.

He got way more life than he deserved; and received so much more material wealth and comfort - for being a divisive piece of shit - than ANYONE should receive...so much so that, on balance, no amount of suffering or ill-fate would balance the scales.

I try to remind myself on days like this that my over-riding goal in life is to live well enough that no one is happy when I am no more...perhaps not the loftiest of goals, but if I succeed in that regard, I will have led a more worthy life than the dead dick of the airwaves managed, and that is enough.

[lettucebe]

46. It's hard not to celebrate when a monster dies, that is all

[Dukkha]

47. I wouldn't wish cancer on him

But I have often wisheed for him to drop dead, so I'm glad he's dead and he is not worthy of a single kind words. Because he never had a kind word in himself. The airwaves are cleaner now without his fifth.

[Horse with no Name]

49. I didn't wish it on him

And wouldn’t have but not at all sorry that he suffered and died.

[Dirty Socialist]

50. I'm sad he never had an epiphany

I’m sad his cancer didn’t give him a better perspective.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

51. I pity the man

The death and destruction he brought to his own listeners is immense and will take decades to deprogram them from his misery.

He spewed hate and knew better. His legacy is sadness, he could have used his voice for good but he used for hate and greed and selfishness.

RIP

I don't wish misery on anyone, but the man flaunted huge cigars and died of cancer related to that. I have to wonder if Karma came calling on that...

[blue neen]

52. I watched my mom suffer with Parkinson's Disease. It's horrible.

Rush Limbaugh made fun of Michael J. Fox for having Parkinson's. Limbaugh was a terrible, disgusting POS.

So, I don't need any lectures, thanks.

[lillypaddle]

53. Fuck that bastard!!!

just sayin'

[mvd]

54. My dad died of stage 4 cancer. I know what a trauma it is to

both the victim and the family. But Limbaugh caused the suffering of many with his rhetoric. All I can feel is the world is rid of a bad person.

[MyNameGoesHere]

56. I prefer to save my indignation for Non-Nazis

Ding ding the fucking evil witch is dead. Happy days.

[marie999]

58. Right now our whole lives revolve around our daughter.

She has been at Duke in the emergency ward for 4 days. She called last night. She said that she has stage 4 lung cancer in both lungs and the doctors are waiting on test results to see if it is in her brain. She will be back with us in a couple of days set up for chemo and radiation treatments.

[Norbert]

59. I know of a friend that was diagnosed with brain cancer this week

He is a class individual.

I'm sorry but my compassion can only go so far. Rush is dead and his body is as cold as his heart was in life. He lived a good (for him) and plentiful life.

Let the ones that hung on his every word feel the loss. I will pray for my friend.

[MissMillie]

61. I'm with you, but for a different reason

I lost someone very close to me this past summer--my mom.

On a number of occasions my mom stood up for the people she loved, and stood up to people who treated her loved ones unfairly. When she did that, she made some enemies. Those enemies would be the type of people who would dance on her grave.

I won't behave that way.

My mom wouldn't want me to.
