Don't believe rumors you hear today about Rush Limbaugh getting shot.
Edited on Thu May-19-05 03:14 PM by LoZoccolo
Someone at the cuckoo clock is trying to get one of us to post a thread about it in hopes that a bunch of us will pile on and say that it's good. But we're smarter than that.

And don't use this thread as an opportunity to say you wish it happened anyways, disruptors.

1. Maybe what they meant to say was that he "shot up"? Maybe he's
branching out from pills?

2. Might as well try the whole variety of drugs...
...if he's going to be in prison soon.

6. Club Fed is too good for him. Something a little more... "common man"
would be better for him.

7. That would make more sense.
The only person who would shoot Rush with a gun would be a freeper who thought he was a socialist.

20. Wouldn't suprise me if he was
I've seen a few downer freaks in my time, as they progress through their addiction. The next step after the one that he is currently in, ie taking large quantities of pills, is to start hitting the needle. After that, matters progress quickly, with an ever increasing amount of drugs being shot up, usually in veins that are closer and closer to the heart. Pretty soon there is a slip, to much inserted in the wrong vein, and the person falls into that sleep from which they never wake.

I honestly hope that Rush has beaten his monkey, nobody should be saddled with that. But I also honestly don't think that he has. I was recently listening to him(know thy enemy etc.) and he was mentioning that he was having hearing problems again. That combined with his weight gain here lately, and my bet it that he is back on the Oxy, if he ever really got off.

But quite frankly I wish he would pay for his crimes that he has committed. His appeals about his medical records have been ruled against him, so he should be going to court anytime now. Make the man pay for his crime and his hypocrisy.

4. Rush Limbaugh getting shot would be the worst thing possible for the Left
Better him a live, lie spewing asshole than a dead martyr.

5. I'm sure they would like to have a martyr for their cause
Especially after one of their crankjobs threatened to shoot Michael Moore.
Simply a smokescreen for them to get their asses in a lather over that they may talk about it...but the libruls really do it.
Sad really.

19. What's wrong with these morons
who's to say some cranked up religious right gun nut won't try to finish the job for these idiots. I'm sure they'll say it was just a joke, but it produces a climate where Moore could be in harms way, shouldn't something be done about these nuts?

21. You know what really bothers me about the Michael Moore death threat?
Why did he just say it yesterday,? Moore has been almost completely out of the limelight since Nov 04. It has to be a setup for something.

10. Why ?
Why even consider shooting that blabbermouth ? He's ridiculous. Shooting him would make him a "martyr" and give general support to his views. The repukes play the victim enough without us actually making them victims. There's no good reason to take out ONE of those blabbering idiots.

14. There seems to be a presumption on someone's part
that I care one way or another whether the gasbag is alive or not. I think that the conclusion is therefore inescapable that whoever wants us to write such things has an inflated sense of the worth of Rush Limbaugh. Ponderous.

17. Are they trying to get us to do what InstaPundit did to Michael Moore?
Yeah, right, us miserable wussy peacenik losers are going to sit around dreaming of killing some Republican, like they do. No, we sit around dreaming of veggie plates, lattes, rainforest biomes and all the great sex we can enjoy since we don't believe in abstinence. That actually keeps us pretty busy, and besides we don't own guns like they do, so how would we do it? "Om" him to death?.

I don't freakin think so! No, freeper lurkers, we're not just like you except blue, we are REALLY DIFFERENT!!!

Unusually flat top for a winger. They're usually pinheaded.

We could have him apply upholstery cleaner too. I'd give him $2 to do a whole car.

He's entertaining. It's like listening to an alien from another galaxy. Only a really, really stupid one.

26. violence is wrong......even against Limpballs.
We (dems) don't take glee the pain of others, unlike a certain someone(s) I know.

I agee that it's probably another Rove plant to counteract the radio nutjob talking about violence against Michael Moore.

29. Ya know what the freepers have against MM?

28. It'd be terrible if it were true. Then they'd have a martyr. They're
just confused. He just shot-up some OxyContin.
