Rush, your talent is lying to people who want to believe those lies. This makes the tycoon class richer, and the country poorer. And that is the only reason you have a job.

P.S. The comments are precious. Heck, the comments are "My Precioussss!", as they all seem to have been written by Gollum.

Yes, Politico is clearly showing their bias. They obviously searched their photo archives for hours, deliberating trying to find the only shot of Limbaugh that shows him as bloated and scowling."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Yea, if limbaugh is paul revere and beck is sam adams, who exactly is Obama one might ask??
President Obama is the only of of the three who matters. Limbaugh and beck are insignificant scumbags.
How's that magic eight ball working for you Rush?
And for cripes sakes, Chris, just kiss the big paluka already. You know you want to.
I thought OK, lets give the guy a chance. WRONG the only hope I have is that the country can survive, the only change is what's in my pocket....
The culture of corruption from the top down...
Bush isn't in office anymore.
OK, blackforestcake -- please list for us all the scandals and corrupt acts the Obama administration is currently involved in and/or is under investigation for, and list the names of administration officials who are involved and/or under said investigation.
Tick tock . . .
No I think you are:
Heck, he might even thank you and make it his Christmas Card.
Happy Holidays, you MORON!
Does anyone really think they're losing political points if some photoshop effort of Rush is pointed out as flawed, or what?
Unlike Revere, Rush doesn't need a horse to accomplish that feat.
More like Chickenhawk Little.
Speaking of whom, I believe he and Dom DeLuise were separated at birth:
What exactly do you salivate for, another 9/11 attack...
MOST of you would be able to sit with me and probably find you actually like me. I'm really not so different from you.
The problem here is that I really am an old man from Black Forest Colorado. I don't relish the idea of wasting time with name calling and other childish BS...
If I'm not mistaken the subject of this post is whether NObama is a one term president or not. The first entry starts by name calling "racist". So now anyone that thinks NObama might be a one term president is a racist? how?
In one of these posts I asked about Wright being a racist and never did get an answer. I'll tell you that I DO NOT BELIEVE WRIGHT IS A RACIST. I do think he's said some provocative things, I don't agree with everything he has said or done. BUT that doesn't make him a racist.
When limbaugh called justice Sotomayor I disagreed with him... After all they are both the same race, thus she couldn't "hate" him because of the "race"??
When I heard limbaugh interview justice Thomas, he was very respectful and humble. Hmmm difference between Obama and Thomas? IDEAS, IDEOLOGY oh yeah and Thomas is 100% black with slavery in his background.
Calling limbaugh a racist because he thinks Obama is a one term president makes no sense and is not relevant to the discussion.
Actually why do ANY of you care if limbaugh thinks NObama is a one term president?
If all your interested in is patting each other on the back about your witty name calling and intolerant attacks and never hearing other opinions fine I'll troll some place else. (soze169880 must work as a agitator for MM).
I'm going to tell you all a little about myself. If you don't wanna read it go to the next post and shut up...
1. I am an old man, at least my kids think so. (56)
2. I have very long hair and a full beard.
3. I'm not conservative, libertarian in more descriptive. "conservatives" like "liberals" want way too much government, just different parts of government. Liberals want to run my health care and take my money, conservatives want to throw me in jail for smoking pot.
4. I detest war certainly more than soze169880, having been there and seeing it up close, in person.
5. I'm not a Christian pagan is what most intolerant wannabe Christians call me.
6. I'm loosing my sight to MD. (that's why I have so much trouble reading the screen and finding typos.
7. We (my wife and I) have a horse ranch in Black Forest Colorado. I'm a Sr. Systems Engineer by training (retired).
8. I've read "the audacity of hope" AND "dreams of my father" I find NObama has a good grasp of many, maybe even most of the problems. I DO NOT AGREE WITH HIS SOLUTIONS (mostly)
9. I'm a white guy, my wife agrees with you I'm a racist. She should know she's black...
MY objection to most of the posts on this site is the complete
disregard for factual matter and the assumption that everyone that disagrees should be called names and treated with complete INTOLERANCE.
You can take this for what it's worth. If your goal is to help educate and change minds the name calling and lack of critical thinking needs to at least be toned down. If all you want to do is ridicule and berate anyone that disagrees with you.. well this is the place for you...
soze169880 may you find peace in your life.
The point is that someone who is racist doesn't have to be foaming at the mouth every time they see someone of another race, so saying that he was respectful to Thomas proves absolutely nothing. This is a matter of principle, which would hold true whether Limbaugh specifically could be determined to have a bigoted attitude or not.
thanks
It's also in The Way Things Aren't, from fair.org.

You talk a good game, but it's all empty words when you can't be bothered to even call the president by his proper name.
Name calling is a waste of time.
Welllll---maybe not. Next sentence:
;)
Typical tone-deaf right-winger.
BTW, I can't imagine anyone on this thread giving a tinker's damn what you look like, what your imaginary life is like, or anything else about you. All we really need to know about you we can get from your posts. They tell us you are a clueless moron who wants us to do what you say, not As you Do.
Your "stop calling names in response to my calling names" got really old quite some time ago. Go to bed now.
I'm not one to call anybody racist but I do think many of Limbaugh's comments have been racist by nature. He really needs to use a PC editor. Limbaugh's hate rhetoric leaves me with a sour feeling in the pit of my stomach. I can barely stand listening to him although I try to be open-minded.
oldman,
you don't seem so bad and I totally agree that name-calling should be left out of posts. They gotcha with the "NObama" comment.
jjamele,
grow up. your comments don't seem far off from hate speech. There is no need to retaliate out of spite.
I call for a little civility in our debate.
This is the guy who is going to lecture us on civility.
Hey, if another 9/11 attack is good enough for Stu Bykovsky . . .
Libertarian? Isn't the definition of libertarian a rightwingnut who likes his drugs?
In any case, there sure were a lot of "libertarians" and "independents" that came out of the woodwork this past November. Wonder why.
TRANSLATION: I'm just not getting enough attention paid to me here, despite all the biographical details I released, and nobody's buying into my anti-Obama spew . . . so, doggone it, I'm gonna go back to Freeperville where I can be around some like-minded wingnuts who like me! *pouts and stamps feet*
Can I just cut and paste this after every one of your posts? It seems appropo!
Really? Then what was this crap if not TOTAL and complete childish bull sh*t?
"Actually why do ANY of you care if limbaugh thinks NObama is a one term president?" "I find NObama"
And one thing I truly don't understand is WHY did YOU feel the need to tell us your wife is Black?
Is that suppose to make a difference?
Your IGNORANCE is astounding, trying to give yourself cred by claiming age is just silly.
As for your claim of "disregard for factual matter" and "intolerance," that's asinine. Every post I've ever seen of yours is intolerant and most usually completely lacking in any factual basis.
Carry on, middleagedblackforestman.
You know. I don't want to disparage someone I haven't met but you make it hard dude....You haven't the first idea of what it means to be a patriot....I really do feel sorry for you....
I thought this man was "just an entertainer..."
In any event, didn't Limbaugh say that Bill Clinton would be a one-term President?
BUT seriously have no pity for me, consider yourself, your the one that's going to have to live with this mess a lot longer than I.
You're only as old as who you're feeling.
NObama said unemployment wouldn't go above 8%, it's at 9.8% and going to breech 10%. Did he lie???
No , he gave his best guess (opinion)...
So when did limbaugh lie... YOU lie...
Well, maybe we won't. The rest of the stupid you bring with you to the site is very funny as well.
Funny how Obama's "projection" gets such scrutiny from the right, but Bush and Cheney's "projections" about Iraq, all of which were GROSSLY WRONG, get a free pass. And the big difference is that Obama's awry "projection" didn't cost anyone their lives.
Randy
point is there's NO way the president could have accurately projected the unemployment numbers.
And this estimate was based upon preliminary data from the 4th quarter of 2008, which was all they had in early January when they crafted this estimate.
Later on in the month, they got real numbers from that terrible 4th quarter, and given those much worse numbers, unemployment was going to be higher. So, when they passed the Stimulus bill, it wasn't going to be able to keep unemployment as low as it was before.
That's NOT a lie. A lie is a falsehood that you know is false.
So, Rush, bringing up this estimate? That's a lie, because he knows it was based upon prelim data that wasn't as deadly as the eventual accurate data was found to be.
Obama's pre-inauguration staff's estimate? Not a lie, since it was based upon the best evidence they had at the time.
Facts have a liberal bias, to your detriment. Too bad, so sad.
God what a scumbag. He is always fantasizing that he is some general in some war. After getting out of going to Vietnam by claiming he had an anal boil that rendered him unfit for service he's now had a life mission of pretending to be a war general while talking on the radio to his make believe squad. He is the epitome of intellectual dishonesty.
Well, let's give the fat boy some credit: he did have one successful "mission" -- Operation CHAOS 2008.
Oh wait . . .
For the few of you that are civil and at least tolerant enough to respond with other than name calling and poison.
I did take something away from this.
1. Clearly the halfrica-american and "magic negro" was uncalled for and could certainly be derogatory, and I have to admit racist. I did here those things when he said them, UNFORTUNATELY I laughed ate them which probably says something about my sensitivity.
the other thing I found interesting was the description of "institutional racism" that to makes good sense.
If I wasted anyones time, I apologize... I on the otherhand feel I've learned a few things.. I don't know that I'd go so far as to say I'll never listen to rush again, BUT I will certainly make it a point to be more aware of his comments and how they might impact some.
I don't like to think of myself as a racist, but OBJECTIVELY I probably am. I DO however strive to improve, thuse the questions and comments here.
See, that's your fatal, unforgiveable flaw. Your high opinion of your own abilities is clearly contrary to the facts readily available to us the first time you posted and every time since!
Because, Dolly, blackforestcake is a devoted Rush dittobot . . . and, like any good soldier, he's here to defend his "general" . . .
Off topic: I cannot believe the comment thread went on for so long with that Oldman troll. Please, for sanity's sake, do not feed the troll next time!
And another thing Rush the midnight ride of Paul Revere was make believe ,it was a child's poem.. Paul Revere was captured;
Dawes eluded the English but fell off his horse and had to go back;It was Prescott who jump over a wall with his horse to eluded the British patrol and reached Concord with the news.
