Re: Comment #66163 by that obviously unbiased conservative bush supporter, Paul Harrington! First of all, congratulations for using your full name, or is that a nom de plume for your obvious heroine, annie-I’m-so-colder?? Secondly, kudos for wiping out 99.9% of the liberals in the country with those scathing comments about “he sure was crazy and out of his mind!” I for one can guarantee that we are feeling completely and utterly chastised by your grasp of logic and the persuasive repetion of the conservative mantra! A very clever ploy most often used by neocons to express the same exact thought several ways. You are obviously a graduate of the russie limburgher school of “I’ll appeal to the lowest common denominator of IQ in the country, and still make millions”! As a liberal; a term I’m enjoying more and more every day since brain-dead jerk-offs like you started your moronic bleatings of coma-induced ravings, I see it’s becoming so easy to point out your short-comings, that it’s almost not fair to engage you in dialog. The .1 percent of liberals that are not; by your inaccurate count, and come’on now paulie baby, admit you had help with the math, “crazy and out of their mind”, could verbally trash you like a al gonzoles Senate Commitee hearing! But paul, don’t get discouraged because nobody pays attention to you; climb out of that conservative sewer, chalk it up to heredity and ease up on the “crazy” dialog: someone may think you’re talking to youself again!!

Rush is a sad commentary on the “state of our country”.When a charleton is allowed to appear and/or be heard as a respected commentator,the fault lies with the enablers. That’s us folks! Rush should be ostracized by getting to his sponsors, ala IMUS, and removed from his spewing of hatred and right-wing ideology. But,we(the silent majority)are too busy with living to devote our personal(and deserved)time off to spent this time on his removal.So,unless all of a sudden,we find the time to object, he will be able to continue with his slanted drivel.
Report thisMaybe we “bust his ass” for drug abuse? The Right side is real big on drug abuse. Therefore, they really can’t shield him. How about a call for “contributions” to fund a lawsuit against him? The charges? Don’t worry, with our existing legal system and $ to to fund an exercise,he’s in court. Once there,we make him the “poster boy” for them.I like it.What do you guys think? Possible? Shut down one of their primary voices? Get him to plead,in return for some pertinent info? Like a drug dealer. Give me someone, if you want to “skate”? In other words…play dirty. They live in that world. We can fight “fire with fire”. Paybacks, you know?

Obviously, Rush is full of crap. We didn’t need this latest example to prove that. The question I have is how should we, as liberals, respond to it? I’m afraid that getting into an argument about whether Cho’s actions were more stereotypically liberal or conservative is just legitimizing his tactics. What are our best options here?
It’s too long to post directly here, but I have some thoughts (although no great solutions) on this issue on my blog. If you have thoughts to share, I’d love to hear from you. I think this is an important issue.

So saith Paul Harrington in his contribution of scripted excrement:
“All I see here is hatred and malice for anybody who does not agree with you.” (Like that spewing out of the Cheney-Rove-Rice-Bush White House?)”
“I can just see this nation if Evita gets the White House” (You might have a realistic look at it now under the gross incompetence and intellectual mediocrity of The Puppet as he loiters in the Oafel Office between propaganda and fund-raiser trips and awaiting, as well, being trotted out for an unscripted press conference for more of his babbling incoherence.)

Hark! Were sound available to us in his post, we could hear the primordial scream of a pathetic Dupe, who refuses to see the state of the Nation under the current hatred and malice he describes, as extant under the Chief Chickenhawk-Puppeteer Cheney and his Puppet dangling on the strings, which is not to mention the hatred and malice that has grown steadily among the assortment of sycophantic ultra-Right Stooges in Congress assembled and among the propagandists in the right-winger media.

@paul harrington
Lauren Bacall tells of something Humphrey Bogart used to tell her. One thing in this world you’re not allowed to be is a bigot. Except against hatred and stupidity. It’s O.K. to be a bigot against these. It’s the kind of bigotry that will make you the most hated of all.

When I see people with such a big cigar in their mouth, I want to ask them “What is that a substitute for?” “What do you suck on in the privacy of your own home?”

I guess Rush could tell he was a liberal because he shot himself in the head to hit his brain - a Limbaugh listener would have to put the bullet in his ass to achieve the same effect.

Rush is the poster-boy for birth control. He should be off the air. He is a drug sucking freak who makes enough money for his corporate benefactors who keep him on the air.
A movement to boycott all products advertised on his show should be started here and now. Join me. I listened for a few days to get a list of companies advertising on his show so I could make sure I’m not supporting this pathetic pond scum.

It’s only a matter of time until we find out that Cain was in fact a closet Liberal, as was Judas.
Conservatives, otoh, are from the womb on completely perfect, totally blameless. And down yonder in “LimbaughLand” will it ever be thus, amen.
Pathetic…

Rush Limbaloney, Shill O’Reilly, and Sean Hannutsy will remain on the air sponsors or no sponsors. The plutocrats will pay for their air time (as they have in the past in many parts of the Country)just to keep them bamboozling the pathetic Dupes all across America but cloistered mainly in the backwaters of Dupedom South. There are found the vacuous clods who emerge from substandard housing to go to dead-end, no benefits, non-union (by choice)jobs, and who jump into their less than reliable flivvers adorned with Bush-Cheney stickers. They cheer and vote against their own interests and wholly agree with bigger and better tax cuts for the plutocrats in the interest of American greatness and many who do so in the name of Jesus. They are devoted to politically, economically and socially fornicating themselves and all the rest of us. Meanwhile, their broadcast heroes are collecting substantial salaries for their half-truths and mendacity based on their willingness to say anything on behalf of the comfortable.

Since Ann Coulter has gotten away with several ugly things, like her felonious fake anthrax and calling for the assassination of several so-called liberals, is it all right for us to call for the mercy killings of Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, and the ueber ho Ann Coulter?

Rush is clearly psychotic. Why he remains on the radio (he is not on tv here in Japan) is beyond me when so many other more lucent and relevant commentators are available is beyond me.
