Wonder How Rush Will React to the DU Fundraiser Banner

[CO Liberal]

He mentions DU quite regularly on his radio pukefest. I wonder how long it will take for the subject to come up tomorrow......

[SeveneightyWhoa]

1. ROFL...I just noticed the pills!

That's great, ahaha. It makes me want to donate for the second time tonight, just for the hell of it. Help give Rush what he needs just a little bit quicker.

[lovedems]

2. By taking some more pills!

Those god damned liberals! They are always driving me to take my pills!

Edit: I hope DU is prepared for a freeper attack!

[Renew Deal]

3. It was suggested by a DUer the last time pillboy sent people here.

[NoPasaran]

4. Awwww Are we being mean to Rushy Poo?

Good.

[Semi_subversive]

5. Who cares?

I hope he sees it and strokes out.

8. fortunately many DUers can walk and chew gum at the same time

hence their ability to work to oust the chimp from the WH while still finding the time to mock the pigboy.

27. Welcome to DU...

as a poster!

the banner is at the top of every page...pills rolling along as donations go up.

BTW: It is all about the hypocrisy, nothing more, nothing less.

33. the fight is with Bush alright, but his chief propagandists deserve it

Any one else wanna defend Limbaugh and sound a sincere cry for public decency?

[leesa]

35. And what, in your opinion, is a "hate-America" post

I am so glad you value the opinion of Rush. He's such "a good American", in the words of our illustrious Resident.

Hard to miss that banner!

[Parrcrow]

7. piss on him

let him cry cry cry on the radio

[jmags]

9. I think it's in terribly poor taste.

I hate to see our side fall down to their level. We are better than that.

[Cascadian]

11. The right wingers took the gloves off first.

Do you want to just let them punch us and kick us around or do you fight back? I think if you want to live and have some pride in yourself, you'd fight back.

14. What a juvenile approach to life in general.

I would rather the "He did it first!" mentality stick with Republicans.

Of course we should expose his hypocricy on drug sentencing and the like, but their are so many more legitimate images we could use for a fundraising incentive than making light of the actual addiction.

[RapidCreek]

15. No it doesn't

it makes light of the hypocrisy of a man who has invested great deals of time and energy doing the very thing which you find so appalling. Making fun of addiction.

23. Legitimate images aren't always effective images.

DU is trying to raise some cash to keep everything going. Putting the donkey at the end of a red progress bar on a plain white background creates what kind of incentive to get to the 1000 donation goal?

[Art_from_Ark]

24. This is called "political satire"

In a nutshell, it involves exposing, in a satirical way, the double standards and failings of high and mighty politicians and their cheerleaders. It has been around since at least the days of Jonathan Swift. Some other noted past satirists include Lewis Carroll (his Queen of Hearts was a reference to Queen Victoria), Thomas Nast (noted for his Tammany Hall cartoons), and Mark Twain.

[RapidCreek]

13. We are better than what?

than to point out what a hypocrit he is?

26. C'mon, lighten up.

LOL

It is a joke. They are deadly serious in their hatred.

We can laugh at ourselves, too. They cannot.

[11 Bravo]

31. This is the "man" who called a thirteen year old girl "ugly"

because he objected to her father's politics. There is nothing that can be said about him or done to him that he doesn't deserve. I hope he overdoses, spews, aspirates the vomit, and dies of suffocation while lying in a puddle of his own puke. (After spending a little quality time in a minimum security lock-up while ministering to the every whim of his new best friend, "The K-Y Kid".)

[Bandit]

40. He didn't call her ugly he called her "the Whitehouse Dog"

All to get laughs and to ridicule a little girl. He is beneath contempt. I wish upon him everything he has openly wished upon liberals and particularly drug addicts.

[Cascadian]

10. Let him react.

He is getting what he deserves.

12. Fun thing to do

use the mouse to pick his nose...

[Skittles]

16. I am normally very compassionate towards recovering addicts

but that unrepentant, lying bastard can GO TO HELL.

[guitar man]

17. Piss on him

The sonofabitch probably isn't going to get what he really deserves from the courts,so I say any barb he gets stuck in his ass is well deserved!

[LibertyorDeath]

18. His anal cysts will return. :)

[opihimoimoi]

19. May those anal thingamajigs travel to his face and fester.

[rasputin1952]

28. They HAVE!!!!...

just look at that mug!

:hi:

[guitar man]

21. He is an anal cyst

(apologies to any members of the anal cyst community who might be offended):evilgrin:

[CO Liberal]

39. Rush's Anal Cysts: Hannity, O'Reilly, Savage, Gallagher, Reagan...

Etcetera and so on.

[scottcsmith]

20. He'll react

Like a big fucking crybaby. "Oh, wah, the Democrats are so meeeeaaaaaannnnn."

Piss off, Pillbaugh.

[imax2268]

22. Hey Rush...

I need a fix...can you recommend a friendly doctor...???

[catmandu57]

25. Fuck you pigboy

send your goddamn zombie legions over here they'll just get educated, and your ratings will drop again. Anyone who thinks that braindead mofo isn't eating all the oxy he can get his drug addicted mits on is crazier than a shit house rat.

[rasputin1952]

29. Waht a mental picture that is...

zombie legions descending on my house....."megadittos, megadittos"...ewww!

O8)

[southerngirlwriter]

30. I know EXACTLY how he'll react

He'll say something to the effect of "They need me to make their fundraising a success" and "The only way liberals make money is to attach my name to it."

Hide and watch. Bet you anything. If he mentions it at all, that will be his take.

[CO Liberal]

32. I'll Try To Listen In

And post details.

[CO Liberal]

36. Turns Out I Have a Meeting at !0 AM...

...so I won't be able to listen to Rush this morning. Someone else will have to.

[thebigidea]

34. hmm... I don't think he'll mention the drug angle, too embarassing to him

[Paulie]

37. I just donated for Rush!

I know he "needs" the blue pills, they have to be in the bottle somewhere!!!

[YNGW]

38. I doubt he cares.

Probably won't even mention it.

[yella_dawg]

41. I disapprove of the banner...

they should've used the picture from the dustjacket of "The Way Things Ought to Be". Rush looks like a cross between a marshmallow and a toad. Much better picture that this one, where he could pass for human.
