What happened to Limbaugh yesterday??

[Richardo]

The substitute on today said that Rush fell victim to a hoax yesterday and is in "self-imposed" suspension.

I really don't care WHY he's off today, I want to know where to send the fruit basket for whoever punked the lardass.

27. His Head Exploded From a Gas Leak

While browsing at a neighborhood yard sale I saw a stack of books written or inspired by the bloated corpulent gas bag known as Rush Limbaugh. I laughed at the large stack, selling for .25 cents per book and I mentioned that his books were cheaper than one-ply toilet paper, but that I would not want to wipe my nether region with anything so full of rancid acid and poisonous methane fumes that would deposit more feces on my arse than it may remove. My husband laughed and then a local shrew piped up proclaiming how much she enjoyed Rush's show, "Otherwise, how would I know what was going on in the world?". I judiciously responded, "Your devotion to his program reflects much more about the listener than the purveyor of such tripe.". She snorted, slowly processing the jibe, and then nodded, "I guess it does. uhe uhe.".

The piece of all this that haunts me to the point of distraction and frustration is that the ignorant, underemployed, easily duped, and incredibly bigoted people in this nation seem to nod in unison to the noxious waves of sewage that spew so freely from the mouth of this grotesque primate. Some could not blame such a blob from capitalizing on the stupidity and ignorance of so many foolish Americans with the free press that he manipulates and prostitutes, but I am grossly ashamed that so many of my fellow citizens give any listening time or allow such nasty filth into their homes. These are the same kind of people who would decry pornography, abortion, or other sad reflections of peoples choices, but they willingly allow and welcome this toxic rubbish to fill their homes, their cars, and their thought processes. Then, to add to the cloud of fatal fumes, they extol those same opinions, narrow bias, bigoted mis-representations that they hear from him, in some unifying flood of dumb blind lemurs, all happily flowing to the cliff that leads to bitter contention, cruel judgement, and twisted manipulation of information and ideas.

Their devotion to anything from such a vile slob as Rush Limbaugh only causes intelligent, creative, thoughtful and pro-active people to disrespect them and everything they stand for. I'm embarrassed for them. I'm completely disinterested in their excuses for listening to him, (i.e. "he's funny, or I only listen to see what Hilary Clinton is doing wrong, or He has some good ideas"). Whatever the excuse, it's shameful and reflects their own bigotry, their own ignorance, and especially lack of creativity or ability to think for themselves.

The only action necessary to shut this ass up is to turn off his program. click- JUST DO IT!!!

[Patchuli]

50. You write wonderfully...there's just one thing

"in some unifying flood of dumb blind lemurs, all happily flowing to the cliff that leads to bitter contention, cruel judgement, and twisted manipulation of information and ideas."

I think you may have meant 'lemmings' rather than "lemurs...?!"

[insanad]

51. Oh Crappola, You're right

I'm in awe that I could miss that. OF course I meant Lemmings, but Lemurs sounds even funnier, especially if they all look a little George Bushish. Now I'm mortified that I have sent this out for the world to see and judge my intell-u-junce by such a glaring mistake. So much for writing off the top of my head without re-reading what I wrote. Thanks, I'll correct it and hopefully pay attention in the future. And thanks for the compliments.

[Patchuli]

52. Lemurs does sound funnier

but I think that they're a bit smarter than lemmings!

Don't worry...you are intell-u-gent just the same!

SPECIAL NOTICE: (11/08/07)
TO: Listeners of Rush Limbaugh on Thursday, November 8, 2007
FROM: Roy W. Spencer
RE: GLOBAL WARMING STUDY HOAX

Yesterday (11/7/07), a "research study" was circulating on the internet which claimed to have found the "real" reason for global warming. Even though the hoax was quite elaborate, and the paper looked genuine, a little digging revealed that the authors, research center, and even the scientific journal the study was published in, did not exist. I sent an e-mail to Rush about the issue regarding the hoax, with a copy of the "research study". Unfortunately, my very brief note to Rush was not very clear, and he thought that I was calling global warming a hoax, rather than the study. Even though Rush has told me not to worry about it, and that "the buck stops here" with him, I just wanted to apologize to everyone for this misunderstanding, as I feel that better wording on my part would have prevented this from happening.

[Gold Metal Flake]

8. So, he saw some bullshit in writing that fitted in with the RNC worldview...

...and, without taking one moment to research it's validity, he went off using it as proof that GW is a hoax? He punked himself by being a typical RW dipshit?

How.... not unusual of him.

[Richardo]

14. Not only that, but he apparently disregarded the warning in the cover letter

Someone had already done the research FOR him.

[Gold Metal Flake]

22. Maybe the cover letter didn't get to him.

But I prefer to believe that he would have disregarded the cover letter, because in the rightwing media bullshit is king.

I feel I must, once again, praise your sig as containing what must be the cutest picture of a beagle pup ever taken. :hi: I love that pup! I encourage others to refute my claim, but they must do so with pictures.

[Atman]

11. What's with the republicans? The victims have to apologize for shooting each other in the face.

Truly bizarro world.

"Personal Responsibility" means "I'm holding you personally responsible."

15. It's hero-worship.

They're so riddled with daddy-complexes... ugh.

[Richardo]

13. Excellent!

[OzarkDem]

20. Heard some BS re weather channel guy debunking global warming

this must be what the person was referring to. Some idiot with his own weather web site fed Rush some bad info about global warming.

These people will fall for anything.

[MagickMuffin]

41. His name is John Coleman he started the Weather Channel but is no longer a part of it

Right Wing Trumpets Global Warming Denial Of Discredited ‘TV Weatherman’

Yesterday, John Coleman, a founder of The Weather Channel, wrote an article for the International Climate and Environmental Change Assessment Project, a right-wing climate change skeptic site, claiming man-made global warming is just a “scam“

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM. Some dastardly scientists with environmental and political motives manipulated long term scientific data to create in allusion of rapid global warming.

As proof that the scientific consensus is a hoax, Coleman writes:

I say this knowing you probably won’t believe a me, a mere TV weatherman, challenging a Nobel Prize, Academy Award and Emmy Award winning former Vice President of United States. … I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have talked with numerous scientists. I have studied. I have thought about it. I know I am correct.

more about Coleman here:
http://thinkprogress.org/

He doesn't know anything about Climate Change. He IS a weather man.

6. He was trolling hookers, picked up a TV and when he found her appendage..

He started a fight. She kicked his ass.

At least...some people say that ;)

26. Beyond the pale, insulting a teenage native Alaskan girl

from the linked article about a teenage schoolgirl from Alaska who testified before Congress as part of a youth education program about global warming & environmental issues...

"Mr. Limbaugh’s first-day reaction was to inaccurately and insultingly describe Ms. Lockwood as a 13-year-old Inupiat (she’s Yup’ik) girl from Alaska and cast her on par with the white actor who played the “crying Indian” during 1970s TV commercials aimed at littering. He decried her emotional testimony as a nauseating Democrat ploy.

On Tuesday he added her to his list of “victims exploited by the Democrats” and joined callers in painting her as “brainwashed” and belittled her cultural concerns.

He continued to exploit her testimony, playing it time and again, and would not apologize for his attacks. He made it clear that anyone testifying before Congress was fair game for the same kind of national ridicule he has endured (Just Google “OxyContin & racist”).

The coup de grace was Mr. Limbaugh laughing with a woman caller who claimed to be a former Alaska resident, now “a Texan by choice.” Of Ms. Lockwood’s testimony she said, “if they’re losing their way of life, that would probably mean the liquor store was closing.”

What a POS, I hope she sues him and the redneck woman on his show.

"Information Bulletin
New Drug - JENKEM

On 09/19/07 Cpl. Disarro received and email from a concerned parent regarding a new drug called "Jenkem." The parent advised their child learned about this drug through various conversations with several students at Palmetto Ridge High.

Jenkem originated in Africa and other third world countries by fermenting raw sewage to create a gas which is inhaled to achieve a high. Jenkem is now a popular drug in American Schools. Jenkem is a homemade substance which consists of fecal matter and urine. The fecal matter and urine are placed in a bottle or jar and covered most commonly with a balloon. The container is then placed in a sunny area for several hours or days until fermented. The contents of the container will separate and release a gas, which is captured in the balloon. Inhaling the gas is said to have a euphoric high similar to ingesting cocaine but with strong hallucinations of times past.

Once ingested the onset of the high takes approximately 10 seconds with the most severe hallucinations happening in approximately 20 minutes. Several articles indicate that the subject immediately passes out after ingesting the gas then regains a magical/hallucinogenic state within seconds of regaining consciousness. The high has been described by subjects as a feeling of "being out of it" and talking to dead people. The feeling of being "out of it" may last for several hours or days.

All subjects who used the Jenkem disliked the taste of sewage in their mouth and the fact that the taste continued for several days.

Slang terms: Winnie, Shit, Runners, Fruit from Crack Pipe, Leroy Jenkems, Might, Butthash, and Waste."

25. Hell Rush could make Jenkem simply by sitting in a closet and

rebreathing his own fumes.

16. Why do you listen to that lying sack of sh*t in the first place?

:wtf:

[Richardo]

23. I enjoy the laughs.

Besides, I live in Houston. I have no choice. I'm rarely in my car during the day, so it's not a habit (that's why I did not know what happened yesterday).

I'll take that back - I do have a choice:

Rush Limbaugh
Sean Hannity
Laura Ingraham
Michael Savage
Michael Reagan
Dennis Miller
and any number of other local right-wing blowhards.

Ed Schultz was on one station for about a year, but was often pre-empted by Astros baseball. He's now gone.

[Gold Metal Flake]

29. Oy.

I used to work at KPRC radio when the Hobby's still owned it. Back in the days of Ben Baldwin and Alvin Van Black. God, it must suck now.

[Richardo]

31. You have no idea.

The only highlight in Houston radio is KPFT - the Pacifica Station. But that's a little TOO left for me.

[earth mom]

32. There is NOTHING funny about any of those pigs on your list. nt

[Richardo]

33. I don't know what part of the country you live in...

...but if that list was all you got, you'd make the best of it. Or buy your own radio station.

We get no Air America, no Randi Rhodes, no Tom Malloy, not even feakin' Ed Schultz.

[earth mom]

37. You said yourself that the left leaning station is too left for you.

C'mon now, you can do better than that. Listen to music or borrow some books on tape from the library. But to say that you have no options. Puh-leeze. :eyes:

[Richardo]

39. I already said I like the laughs.

I've got plenty of music to listen to when I want that.

But I usually take a spin through the blow-hard universe before I switch to music. Usually 2-3 minutes of each is plenty. In those time spans I can usually identify at least 2-3 easily disprovable lies or distortions. It's a mind-game.

[earth mom]

42. You do realize that the sooner you turn them off, the sooner they will be off the air because no one

is listening? You know, ratings?

Sorry, but why anyone would give those evil slimy disgusting bastards even a second of their time is beyond me.

Life is too f*cking short.

[Richardo]

43. I've never been asked to keep an Arbitron diary so no one knows WHAT I listen to

My 2-3 minutes per day never shows up on the radar screen. I could listen 24/7 and it wouldn't reflect in the ratings until Arbitron called me up and asked me what I listen to.

[Zuiderelle]

47. Didn't you know that radio is a two-way communication?

:tinfoilhat:

That, or they hire a lot of psychics to compile the ratings.

[Richardo]

48. You're scaring me!

:tinfoilhat:

[earth mom]

49. Again, listening to those bastards is a complete waste of your life. Have at it because it's not

worth trying to discuss rationally with you-I'm done.

Your excuses are TOTAL B.S.

[underpants]

35. Dennis Miller has a radio show?

Wow what in the world of Hali Salasi did THAT HAPPEN?? I wonder

[Richardo]

36. As you can see from my list, the bar is very low here.

Although I do believe he's in NY.

38. Jim Lehrer must be rollling over in his proverbial grave

28. spontaneous combustion? I would include "Human" but that doesn't apply to Rump Leakage.

[Greyskye]

30. This is what he fell for

http://www.geoclimaticstudies.info/benthic_bacteria.htm

It is really easy to tell it's a hoax. None of the people referenced in the paper show up in a web search, other then in this white paper. Very lame. Took me 5 minutes to debunk.

[yella_dawg]

44. Ummm...

Since when has that shit sack given a tinker's damn about his veracity?

53. Going cold turkey on your source for

talking points must be hard on you. I feel your pain. (Not.) Maybe you could try some other sources. Might make your head explode, but it might also cure what ails you.
