      So, insulting someone's lifestyle by debasing it is reichwing humor at it's finest? These are the same people who cry like babies if someone suggests they are acting like hitler's henchmen. What a bunch of two faced phony christians.

        And aren't you insulting someone's lifestyle when you refer to trailer trash, like you often do? Liberal humor at it's finest. Hypocrisy is a better description.

        Not to mention your anti-Christian bigotry also.

        And speaking of two faced phonies, where has your friend harley been lately?

      A great and funny line? Maybe for a 10 year old.

        And even that was too sophisticated for his audience.

        Hey, that's not fair. A lot of us who were over the age of 10 when E.T. came out laughed at the line in that movie -- in 1982.

        Seriously, though, it takes a severely deranged case of megalomania to judge one's own jokes as funny.

      It was 3rd-grade, playground comedy at best. I guess that's HILARIOUS in the minds of these dolts.

      Hey Rush? If that's the best you can do, you should feel more ashamed for your lack of wit than any moral shortcomings.

      Good to see that homophobic, right-wing wackjob 8 year-olds have been defined as a target demographic now...

      It might be moderately funny if Beavis said it to Butt-head, or Wayne said it to Garth. Then again, Mike Judge and Mike Myers aren't paid to offer informed opinion on politics and current events.

        And on a bad day they're still a hell of a lot funnier that this butt-head ever is.

      Truly an Olympian feat of verbal razzle-dazzle. From victimhood to please for sympathy misrepresentation to lying. From lying to lies-by-omission and mischaracterization to cheap shots and misogyny. More sympathy-begging to self-denial, and full-circle back to self-congratulation. I'm just glad he didn't do it while wearing Speedo trunks.

      Limbaugh shows his sense of humor is scatological, which means it is at the level of a 9-yr-old boy. He is also given to using ridicule about personal characteristics which shows he believes that is a fair basis for determining a person's actual worth to society.

      He is definitely not a comedian, professional or otherwise.

      Methinks he is setting himself up for like comparisons from everyone else.

      Let's face it, Rush. You're about as good at comedy as a moldy pear.

        Rush is as good at comedy as he is politics and humanitarianism.
