      Why would you assume authentic slaveblood? Could it be because you're a racist pig? I can only speculate.

        It's not the assumption that makes him a racist pig, it's the simple fact that he mentions "authentic slave blood" when slamming Michelle Obama.

        Better yet, why doesn't our corporate media call him out? Don't they love "reporting" on celebrity miscues? They could bring Rush down in a week if they wanted to...what an ugly system of oligarchs rolling in their money and congratulating each other for "controlling" information. B*stards.

      This man is a disgusting waste of flesh. What is wrong with the girl who married this monster? Is money really worth living with someone like this?

      Ah, that's where we have an advantage over you, Rush. Whenever you use the phrase, "We can only speculate. . ." we rarely have to ponder what's going to follow. We're pretty much certain that something particularly foul is going follow.

      Michelle Obama is not your 'belle', Rush. She's the first lady of the United States. I don't expect you to show taste or class, and I am rarely disappointed.

      Secondly, Rush, just because YOU can only speculate, don't think the rest of us are stuck with that option. We can choose not to care. Easy enough. An actual journalist would investigate, and find out the facts of the matter. But, you're just another circus clown who wants to bad mouth his President for no reason whatsoever.

      Please understand that your money, and your house, and your young Dominican boyfriends do not add one iota to your importance as a human being, and neither do the hundreds of morons who take you seriously.

        He was trying to be clever because "Michelle, my belle" is a Beatles lyric. But yeah, it's a stupid, classless "joke." If John Lennon was alive, he'd punch this fat MF out.

          I'm familiar with the Beatles song, Lord of Light, but thanks :) I find it mildly humorous that you think John Lennon would punch Rush Limbaugh, and even more humorous that I tend to agree with your assessment!

        ***Limbaugh Classic***

        We do see things from a different perspective, and I am frustrated when I learn of the perspective that many black Americans see things through. I with they would see things through my perspective. And I keep thinking that it's possible. Because I like my perspective. Very proud of it

      Another point to be made here is that he's saying this crap while they're burying someone who just died. When people tried to point out the real Reagan record when ol' Ronnie kicked the bucket by merely stating facts, Rush was screaming bloody murder.

      Yet another example of right-wing hypocrisy.

      I'm sure I have "authentic slave blood," and it never determined whether I attended a certain event or not, but a conflict in my schedule did.
