Ohmigod--I thought I'd never say this

[hyphenate]

but I agree with Rush Limbaugh. My head is spinning. I feel like I'm in another dimension, but yes, a transcript from today's Limbaugh show makes a point to which I wholeheartedly agree. Geez--anyone see any of those icicles in hell yet?

Have you heard what they're doing up in Wisconsin? Killing cats! "Feline lovers holding pictures of cats, clutching stuffed animals and wearing whiskers are facing off against hunters at meetings around Wisconsin to voice their opinion on whether to legalize cat hunting. Residents in 72 counties were asked whether free-roaming cats — including any domestic cat that isn't under the owner's direct control or any cat without a collar — should be listed as an unprotected species. If listed as so, the cats could be hunted.... La Crosse firefighter Mark Smith, 48, helped spearhead the cat-hunting proposal. He wants Wisconsin to declare free-roaming wild cats an unprotected species, just like skunks or gophers. Anyone with a small-game license could shoot the cats at will." Now, we can't go out and kill a kangaroo rat. We can't go out and kill an Arkansas Fat Ass. We can't go out and kill a snail darter. We can put down people's homes; we can stop their construction projects. We cannot allow people to use their backyards if they want if there's a little water in it if there's a wetland, but here a bunch of people want to go out and start shooting cats up in Wisconsin. Cats are killing birds? What do you think cats do? Cats kill wild birds! I have a cat. You ought to see what my cat does when a bird flies by! My cat tries to jump through the glass window to get it. It's call instinct. I have little lizard geckos. You have where I live we have these little geckos; sometimes they get in the house. A cat sees it, the lizard's dead.

1. I cant..I tried...but I just cant bring myself to say "I agree with him"

Although, my feelings on the issue at hand are the same as his.:puke:

2. Rush doesn't seem to realize why you can't kill a kangaroo rat

or build on a wetland. They are endangered and rare. I don't condone the killing of cats, but to compare them with endangered species is ludicrous.

But hey, if he wants to break federal laws and do that, go ahead. Lots of druggies break laws, why not him?

[Mr. Flibble]

3. What next, any human that isn't under direct control or registered gets

shot too?!

Oh, wait, that's Patriot II-a.

4. "We can't go out and kill an Arkansas Fat Ass?"

WTF? Code? What is talking about here?

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

6. Guess. Just guess.

Who did Rush rail against all those years?
And where was he from?
Yes, Rush is using code to say "We can't go out and kill Bill Clinton."

Fucking scumbag. (Rush, not you.)

[Algorem]

5. "We can't go out and kill an Arkansas Fat Ass"?

Where's the Secret Service?

[tjdee]

7. Does he know about Bill Frist?

That Republican standard strikes again!

[politicaholic]

8. We'll isn't it illegal to discharge a weapon in a populated area...

unless you're in law enforcement?

Awwww, screw it, you know what? He's probably fabricating this story also. From the brain of a drug addict comes twisted facts.

10. Here is the AP story.

9. You have to weigh his imbicillity in building it up with the punchline

Sure he's right about the cats, but he's dead wrong about the rest of the shit that he spewed in building up to the cats - e.g. the endangered species protection assault.

11. You're right about that

but the mere fact that he cares about the cats enough to argue the point is what is the most shocking to me. I would have figured him for a bull terrier man. ;)

[RevCheesehead]

12. Typical Rush - an oversimplification of the facts.

"They" are not now "killing cats," and it is unlikely that this proposal will ever make it to the legislature, let alone the DNR.

13. A broken clock is right twice a day...nt

14. Boy, what an intellectual heavyweight.

"Cats kill birds." If a lizard gets in, it's a dead lizard.

:eyes:

Wow, he really knows his stuff, eh? LOL!
