      Dear wingnuts, the following things are fiction: "24", "The Dark Knight", "The Sopranos", "The Lord of the Rings". When you cite them as "proof" that your views are correct, it makes you look stupid, if not outright insane. Just trying to help.

        I can't remember which conservative it was, but he compared "The Dark Knight" to Bush's presidency, comparing Bush to Batman, and even said, "And how did he catch The Joker: wiretapping".

        Expect Bush didn't hardly caught anyone by that means, if any at all. Yeah he killed Zarcawi and got Hussein. Not much else.

      LOL. Oh, Rush. I suggest you cancel your Netflix subscription. It's not helping your lame arguments. I know it's fun to get high as a kite and watch The Wall, but...

      Plumpykins will gain all his weight back after he crashes and burns (again) from all the chemical supplements he takes. Soon his Spanx™ will give out at the seams. He will have a horrible breakdown. That will be followed by a period of insane, angry rants on the radio. More insane and angrier than usual.

      Can't wait.

        That's the thing about this 'diet' he's on... if he falls off the wagon - which he will - not only will he gain back all of what he lost but he will gain more on top of that.

      Would that be the whole system of bank and business fraud? With these cookie bake companies to funnel and wash money through?

      The Joker wore a mask? Aren't you thinking of Jim Carrey, Rush?

        Actually I think this time he was referring to Obama as a charismatic crime lord.

      Any similarity between Rush and human being is purely coincidental.

      Do you REALLY want to start making comparisions to comic book characters, Rush?

      May I suggest Rush that you know actually watch the movie before you talk about it.

      As I'm pretty sure Joker wasnt really out to change the system, just out to prove that the system was corrupt, hence his creating two face, as proof even the shining knight of gotham was corrupt.

      He didnt really want to change anything just to point out he was no less evil then the good guys by exposing the good guys to cercumstances in which they would become bad guys...if that changed the system so be it but to joker thats a side effect. He's out to prove only that he's not evil, he's just part of the normal system, but that no one else is smart enough to see it.
