Drudge just lied about SNL, Rush, and Robert Downey Junior.
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 12:22 AM by norml
He said SNL showed Rush OD ed, which it didn't, it just showed him zonked, and passed out. Drudge also said SNL never did this to Morton Downey Junior, but SNL did. They had a similarly animated skit which showed Anne Hecht, Margaux Kidder, and Robert Downey Junior, all whacked out, and engaged in bizarre behavior. What a liar Drudge is!

1. Robert, not Morton...
Morton is dead. Robert isn't.

Saying Drudge is a liar is not news. It is fact.

8. Actually, that;s quite an interesting faux pas
In a war Morton is a precurson to Rush.

Remember who he always had on? Curtis Sliwa

4. Whaddya expect from some Greedy Old Prikkk's mouthpiece?

7. Drudge's page has a link to The Nation.
Drudge's news reports are sometimes wrong, but his wide diversity of links to sites with many different political views is one of the best collection of links anywhere on the internet.

5. Oh my....Did they hurt Rush's feelings?
I know what a sensiitive guy he is.

Maybe Drudge is jealous 'cause he's not famed enough to be subject to SNL parody.

6. Rush Limbaugh.....
...... has always supported the war on drugs, and said that people who use illegal drugs should go to jail for a long, long time.

And then he obtained large amounts of prescription medication illegally by "doctor shopping" or whatever they call it.

Now, if he had come out and said that he was wrong about the war on drugs, and that those people shouldn't be in jail, he would be a good, decent man, and he would have learned an important lesson.

But he's Rush Limbaugh, so naturally, he didn't learn a thing!

9. With Rush it's a "medical problem" with presciption drugs
With everyone else, it's a "crime problem".

AKA: hypocracy

10. Drudge is a paid disinfo operative. He always lies.
That's his job. Anyone who expects that visiting his site and boosting his ad revenue will yield anything but lies and spin is a fool.

11. TV FunHouse, Not SNL - "Downey, Kidder & Heche"
Robert Smigel cartoon featuring a whacked-out Downey, Kidder and Heche searching for a missing dog (after taking various drugs) by wandering through people's houses and eventually finding, killing and eating the lost dog. Just saw it the other day as a matter of fact.

18. Thanks, I should've said TV FunHouse, on SNL.
I wasn't thinking of it as something separate.

12. The real lie is this:
That people on the set bitched about some double standard with Belushi and Rush. Belushi never condemned people who use drugs or insisted that they be put behind bars and have the book thrown at them. It's the rank hypocrisy that makes Limpballs a legit target.

Drudge lies again.

13. Not to mention Belushi's been dead for almost 23 years...
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 06:19 AM by Cooley Hurd
...and Rush lives on.:grr:

As far as the "senior production source," he's never lived because he's a figment of Drudge's imagination...

14. Belushi wasn't the catalyst to the ruination of our country
Rush is. He started the ball rolling with his hate and his lies, hiding it all under "I'm a harmless little fuzzball." The bastard is a criminal and I have no pity for him whatsoever. None.

17. Poor Rush! LMAO
If there ever was a more accurate portrayal of him, that was it. Stoned on his bathroom floor. He's a Junkie, albeit, a rich one, but a junkie nonetheless, who never showed any compassion for anyone else. A junkie hatemonger. Whose "morals" were better than everyone elses. Glad he's upset, it must have hit a nerve. I still can't stop laughing over that clip, especially when his maid came in. So true to life! LOL!! I guess just making fun of Clinton is the only thing that's allowed. Boo Hoo Rush!
