Is this a real RUSH LIMBAUGH quote???

"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and why? Because Saddam 'allegedly' gassed a few Kurds in his own country. Mark my words. All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a 'war criminal' or 'committing crimes against humanity' is the same old thing. LIBERAL HATE SPEECH! And speaking of poison gas . . . I SAY WE ROUND UP ALL THE DRUG ADDICTS AND GAS THEM." - Rush (oxycontin) Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988

Someone mentioned this quote in another thread and I said that I thought it had been debunked and that it, in fact, sounded fishy to me.

1. Sounds fishy to me too.

If it were two separate quotes, I would be a bit more inclined to believe it.

3. debunked on Snopes

"Whatever opinions Mr. Limbaugh may have expressed on his radio program over the years regarding arms sales to Saddam Hussein and the social issue of drug addiction, the item cited at the head of this page is not a genuine transcript of something broadcast on his show on 3 November 1988. It's actually a lampooning taken from the comic strip The Boondocks"

5. Thanks all.

I knew it sounded WAY too good to be true. The guy on the other thread said he actually heard Rush say this. Hmmm.
