Pick up a stone, at least three inches and no more than say six inches in diameter.  Now put it on a window sill that you can monitor frequently.  Wait at least a decade to see if it changed.  This is a portrait of Rush Limbaugh. 

aisbell, are you for real?  Are you insane?  Read what you wrote.  First you whine about attacks on Limbaugh then you go onto immediately attack Oprah!  Okay, maybe you are not insane, maybe you are just a moron.  Talk about attack, I thought that was a fair one by me on you.  And before you even say it, I am known for being egregious.

Now that the Republican Party has done everything it can think of to destroy America, Rush is saying anything he can think of to prevent president Obama from undoing the damage.

Mr. Limbaugh has become a character of himself, a vulgar vile toad of the right, he has done more than anyone ever could to give the people a good look at what goes on inside the so-called thought processes of the neo cons.

Inherit The Wind—-A compliment.  I’m overwhelmed!
Who pays for the loud bag of hot air to spread his
lies and deceptions over the airwaves?  It has to be
a Republician(s)!

“”” Its time for mainstream America to turn ” El Lardo ” off. We have been paying way too much attention to his idiocy.”“”

You touch upon a point that will have much to do with whether this country really recovers its lost republic. The mainstream media is what really keeps the mainstream held back, controlled and stupified with its 4 or 5 owners of the information outlets of tv, radio, magazines, newspapers and books who are all conservative and neoconservative. This is the one point that I had hoped that obama would have attacked but as far as I can detect, obama has NOT done anything to correct this extremely unbalanced part of our democracy. So through his lack of even recognizing a problem with the msm, I can only conclude that the people will NOT be properly informed and will REMAIN always in the control of those traitorous owners of the msm.
Keep an eye out about this and what the FCC is doing and how it is handling the msm. This is one aspect that obama better come up with some ideas or his or anybody’s ideas will never bring the reality of this world to the poor ole msm dumbstruck citizens that still accept it as the unvarnished truth. Really, this is a point that will show how serious obama is about bringing us out of the disaster our past and a lot of present elected officials and corporate criminals have brought down on this country and the world.

Wow!

I have frequently found your posts quite obnoxious and preachy, but this was an amazing one and I compliment you on it! 

A mind clear and open about an issue (Must be driving those dark SC roads late at night. BTDT) and immediately identifies and filters the manure stench in the air.  You show clearly you don’t have to be a liberal or a “Progressive” to recognize the Gasbag for what he is: A hate-filled liar who plays on peoples’ fears.

I’ve always said that if Limbaugh says “Folks, I’m not making this up” he inevitably is doing exactly that.

Great post, C!

Returned Friday after spending over a week helping
my niece move into my Ohio home.  She’s having
financial problems(who isn’t?) so I let her move into
my house rent free.  Must be some way I can use this
as a tax deduction.  I’m starting to drift.  Back to
reality, Rush Limbaugh!  I’m driving somewhere between Columbia, S.C. and Savannah, Ga. and listening to the radio.  Usually, when I’m driving
I like to listen to discussions about Christianity
but on this particular day I couldn’t locate any so
I heard this loud voice blaring through the radio
and decided to listen to him.  It was Rush Limbaugh.
I hate to admit it but I’ve never heard the man before.  I could only stand about 30 minutes of him.
He must have used the word “liberal” at least 25 to
40 times within the 30 minutes I could tolerate him.
Not ONCE did he define what he meant by “liberal.”
It didn’t take me long to realize that he was a
deceptive loud manipulator.  When he made one comment
I about hit the person driving in front of me.  He
said, “The only reason unions exist is so they can
get money from their members to send to the “liberal”
Democrats in Washington.”  I worked midnight shift in
a West Virginia coal mines while attending undergraduate school.  I belonged to the United Mine
Workers of America. PROUDLY!  One night the boss
assigned me a job I wasn’t hired to do, hanging
braddish cloth so the miner running a machine called “the miner” could get air while he cut
the coal at the face.  A dirty and dangerous job.
The miner running a machine called “a joy” hit me
in my heel with one of the arms of the “joy.”
The “miner” cuts the coal, using two arms the “joy”
loads the coal into a buggy which transports the
coal to the main belt to be taken outside and loaded into a railroad car.  When the man hit me in the heel with one of the joy’s arms, I threw down the
braddish cloth, picked up my bucket and went home.
The next night I was called into the big boss’s office and ask how I felt, I replied, “fine.”
He said, “Good, you are going back to hanging braddish cloth.” I said, “No, I’m not.  I was hired
as a laborer not to hang braddish cloth which is a
different classification than a laborer.”  He told
me to go gome.  He didn’t have anything for me to do.  I told my father about the incident.  He said,
“Go down to the union hall and file a case.” I did.
With the union’s help, I got my job back.  If there
hadn’t been a union, I would have been fired.  Now,
I’ve heard Rush Lumbaugh once.  I don’t need to hear the big bag of deceptive wind again.

Aisbell , ” rocket surgery ” ? thanks for your racist ignorant diatribe , it’s obvious you’re no brain scientist . You frankly don’t seem to have the faculties to even be a decent troll . Now why don’t you just slither back to whatever right wing hole you crawled out of so you can grunt and scratch with your brethren , you’ll be happier there . Or put so you might understand it , uh , duh , go away , I mean that in a nice way of course .

I agree that rush is a pig and he’s fat which I hope kills him and the sooner the better, BUT, he did not get fat from eating lard though the fat on him can be considered lard. He is fat because he eats too much carbohydrate food. How is that? Well, consuming carbs triggers the pancreas to release insulin into the body to control blood sugar but one of the other attributes of insulin is the storage of fat. Here you can be a little correct in thinking that rush is fat because he eats carbs because insulin’s ability to store fat also allows it to convert sugar to fat was well at increase the ability to store fats as fat and calories as well. What ever this creep eats he is sure enough storing a lot of stuff as fat in his gut and I hope he dies from from it soon.

aisbell: According to the “comment policy” and the “terms and conditions” here at “truth” dig we are not supposed to make ANY personal attacks.

I think you misunderstand policy – here at Truthdig and here in America.

Comments that attack the person of public figures are not only allowed, they’re common. You think Rush is getting slammed? You should see what the blogging left had to say about Hillary. While personal attacks don’t do much to advance the debate, if it’s directed at public figures, it’s fair game. Just don’t attack me or other commentators personally. Understood?

I don’t know what to say about the rest of your rant. It is what it is: astonishingly bigoted and uninformed. I’m talking about what you wrote, not who you are, by the way.

Limbaugh is precisely the man to represent the Repubican party:  grossly wealthy, grossly overweight, a “family values” joke, drug-addled, despising honest (but not wealthy) people.

According to the “comment policy” and the “terms and conditions” here at “truth” dig we are not supposed to make ANY personal attacks.

Yet all the attacks upon Limbaugh are allowed.  Fine I don’t like him either.  But fair is fair.  Its not fair to allow attacks on Limbaugh but ban all comments that go against the “truth” dig propaganda.

Goodman says that “Oprah is about change”.  hahahahahaha you’re kidding right?  What change could Oprah possibly be about.  Changing America from a white country to a colored one!  Oh yeah that will be a great change.  we can all see how great people of color are.

Take a good look at Africa, India and the Middle East.  Oprah is all about change.  Well perhaps we should start changing things back to the way they were because I remember that America was once the greatest country in the history of the world.

Of course that was before we became diverse wasn’t it.  The very idea that Goodman would demonize a white guy and lift up a lowbrow black woman like Oprah says it all.  Oprah made her money in entertainment, not rocket surgery.  Yet she is lifted up and compared to a white man as a method of opposing what Limbaugh represents!

If you don’t have a better agenda than that then here is the problem with what has happened to the political left - it is bankrupt.

Bashing Limbaugh is a diversionary tactic while writers should be talking about all of the money Obama is taking from mostly white people and giving it to mostly Hispanic and other minorities in his “bailout”.

Why doesn’t Goodman talk about that.  Where is all of this money going to come from when white people no longer even have jobs.  Why doesn’t Goodman and “truth” dig talk about that.

Why women dont like Rush? Because intelligent women despise idiotic slobs! That’s simple.

Shoot, seems like a given that ann coulter would be the perfect ‘mate’ for what’s his face.

So poor Slush Rimbo doesn’t know why women don’t like him?

Top ten reasons Rush is single

1. His attitude

2. His physique and good looks?

3. His cigar smoking

4. His narrow-minded view of everything so far

5. His over inflated idea of his own worth

6. His over all display of lack of etiquette in public

7. His crudeness

8. His bulling personality

9. His lack of common knowledge of simple things i.e said a panda bear was a teddy bear on TV interview and argued he was right-he wasn’t-it was a panda

10. But most of all, there hasn’t yet been located on this planet, a woman who’s self esteem is so low that her life would be improved by accepting Rush for a significant bother/other.

Just imagine Limbaugh in marriage therapy letting his wife speak for an uninterrupted five minutes. You don’t own women unless you can listen to them.
*************************************************

I missed this…don’t you know the Rushster is deaf? Really, truly deaf?  It was quite a riot a few years ago when it was reported and he said “I’ll still be able to communicate with my listeners”, meaning, of course, that communication FLOWS ONLY ONE WAY!

GOP: Party of the Limbaugh-tinized.

Maybe Rush its because millions of women have seen millions of families dashed on the rocks by addicts/alcoholics.  They’ve seen how addicts rant and rave, stomp, dictate and demand while looking positively UGLY.  Triple DUH.
What could Rush have to overcome that impossible hurdle?
If I were a 6’8” female, 260 pounds with a Law degree and martial arts expertise, I’d call Rush, make a date and give him his answers…and make sure he heard them.

Has Limbaugh looked in the mirror lately>  Has he listened to himself lately? Limbaugh is in love with himself.  They deserve each other.

“The Man Who Knew Too Little”

Why does he have trouble with women? There’s always Ann Coulter-Geist—no one will marry her either.

The fact that there is a Republican part at all remaining in this country goes to show how stupid people truly are.  The fact that that a despicable person like Limbaugh is “approved” of by anyone really nails it home.

Ellen Goodman’s article reminds me of one more reason Obama won. He listens.

Watching Obama and McCain campaign side by side, when it came to one-on-ones, we saw McCain talk, talk, talk. Obama listen, listen, listen.

McCain approached someone and you saw his mouth move, a polite response and his mouth move again and again and the recipient of his “pointing out how great I am” stood mute.

Obama approached someone and his mouth moved, a polite response, a question from Obama and the recipient of his question spoke, and spoke again, on and on, while a nodding Obama listened intensely.

If the repubs want to win elections again they need to study Obama, the man who listens. Of course that means they’ll have to relearn everything they’ve ever learned. Like they already know how to TELL people how great THEY are! But they don’t know how to listen. Listen to what the people have to say, listen intensely, and remember.

Of course that will never happen. Just like Rush, republican politicians are far more focused on their own importance than they are on the folks who vote. After all, what is the great battle for leadership of the party of the “pee on we the people” about anyway?

It certainly isn’t about anything the people want. Duh ...
