      Nice - attacking a dead man. Would Rush like it if us liberals and progressives started saying nasty things about Ronald Reagan?

        Where have you been? They already have!!

        But I will agree attacking a deceased person is pretty low. Unless of course they deserve it, you know like an evil dictator ;-)

        Kennedy was not a personal favorite of mine, but I still respected him & he didn't deserve this.

          My point exactly, Jeter. That was a low blow, and I hope Rush catches hell for it.

          Um, jeter2, people, right and left, were saying nasty things about Reagan when he was President.

          Contrary to the musings of those who would have Reagan sainted, some of whom just remember him fondly because he was the first president they really remember, Reagan was not a very popular president, and he did some things that they would not have really approved of at the time.

              People may have criticized Reagan when he was in office (myself inclused), but you almost NEVER hear any criticism of him now that he's dead. In fact, many on the right have practically elevated Reagan to sainthood.

        In a nutshell, Limpy has a self-esteem problem so he attacks anyone who reaches a certain level of success using their brain and anyone who has compassion for others.

          Maybe that's what he sees in the mirror and why he's so rotund, as a result....;-) Of course having to frequent the Big and Tall Man's store might give him a clue. But then it's probably just because he thinks he's tall. ;-)

          OTOH I'm pretty sure I saw him buying some clothing at Bed, Bath and Beyond...only the finest 400 thread count Egyptian cotton will do for our man!

            Seabird, Rush is the one who said he was moving to Costa Rica.

            The comments regarding the Dominican Republic are based upon Rush's apparent love of visiting that country which is known for its outrageously prevalent sex trade market, particularly, a sex trade market which markets young boys. Rush was returning from one such visit there when he was busted for having large quantities of Viagra which were not in his name. He was traveling alone.

              We tolerate your views even though they are the reason our nation is in the mess it is today. Tax cuts do not increase revenue they cut it. Each time Regan or Bush cut the tax rates revenues went down that year. When they went back up they were not to the levels predicted under the old tax rates. This cutting of revenue while increasing waist spending (more waist in DOD budgets under GOP than total budgets under Dems) Is why we are messed up economically.
