Limbaugh said something very confusing today....
More confusing than usual. (I was listening on way back from garage)

He was talking about Breyer and Ginsburg being appointed to the Court. He said they never pretended to be anything but the liberals that they are. They were liberals before they were nominated. They were liberals after they were nominated. ANd they have been liberals on the Court. So why do the conservatives have to pretend to be something they are not? Good question Rush. Good question indeed! Perhaps it is because they are deceitful liars and if they told the truth, they would not be accepted by the American people, or even the Republican Party. Just like yourself Rush, if people knew the truth about you, do you think they would really listen to you? Lies and deceit - the cornerstones of the Republican Party.

2. They are not conservatives, thats why
Thats what they are hiding. In reality they are far right religious fundamentalists.

7. He said bush's approval rating was at 41% too
and that the last 7 presidents had approval ratings in the 30's. So I guess he got a really good supply of OC this week. Clinton's numbers never dropped below 60 but the new meds are kicking in and Hophead has new drug induced tales to spin.

8. He used to be named Jeff Christie. Why did he change his name?
This was back in the early 70's.

12. Jeff Christie was outed while cruising for gay sex...
Which could explain why rush had that little anal problem that got him out of the military.

14. His real name is Limbaugh
he took the Jeff Christie name during his earlier, and very unsuccessful, radio days. (and was arrested for solicitation under that name). He became a rightwing hate-jock after a female program manager realized the need for one. Political beliefs were immaterial. Ratings were the impetus.
He's totally manufactured. A creature created for ratings, tapping into old, white man rage.
He's a family values guy who is on his fourth marriage. He's not a father...he just knows, like all the other smug conservatives, what all those fathers out there in the real world are doing wrong.
He's not a college graduate. (nothing wrong with that...but it hardly squares with his "America's anchorman" image he's pushing in print ads). He's collected unemployment on several occasions. And he won't engage in debate. He needs a fixed fight.
In short, he's a fraud.

10. Funny you should say that, because he was also talking about how we
here on the left will never understand Conservatives, because we look for deceit, and they are just so honest and open, we can't understand it.

No, they're not.
