Rush made me so angry today
I posted my angriest post ever on GD. It was so full of profanity they locked it in seconds.
I was driving to take an exam at the U of MD and I heard him take all of the quotes that may look bad (I amsure some of them were by closet freepers) and repeat them on the air. It was savage. I almost pulled my car over. I heard him calling us wackos and nuts on the basis of what a few posters said (many probably out of context).
Then he went on to take Dean's moderate comments and inject his own poison commentary. This man has poisoned so many minds. I hate him.

Don't drop the soap Rush.
You'll be in jail a long time, you cop-killing, terrorist funding wingnut!

3. That's okay - the pig is dangerously close to running afoul...
...of RICO statutes when he incites his followers to keep hitting DU with page refreshes, pings, etc... Same with the fascists at FreeRepublic. I think FCC laws might've been broken, as well.

If fatboy doesn't get sent to prison for his drug running, I hope he can be shut down through RICO...

5. I've posted that concept, too.
I thought disrupting the internet is a violation of the Partiot Act. If there are lawyers on DU, they should check it out, document the disruption and file suit against the vulgar pig boy

13. I personally didn't listen to the broadcast today...

...but I would assume his dittohead audience wouldn't have enough smarts to hit DU on their own, without some sort of incitement by Rush...

I think it's time to monitor his broadcasts to see if he is specifically asking his minions to hit DU with page refreshes and/or pings. If so, then we get the law involved.

4. his wheel is spinning
but the hampsters dead.
Rush is a loudmouthed blowhard who is a couple of clowns short of a circus. He is useful only as an example of how arrogant and willfully ignorant someone can be. Assuming the world at large agrees with him he just keeps pimping for his sponsers to make his money. He has no convictions or morals and would sell to the highest bidder on anyting that makes him money.
A special kind of asshole for sale, that is what Rush is and always will be. Deluded and fearful hearing only what he wants to hear he is always screaming to hear the sound of his own voice to soothe himself. He needs ignoring, not attention.

9. People say I'm the life of the Party
Cause I tell a joke or two. Zuni, do not let evil anger your blood. Although Limbaugh, a dropped bar of soap and bubba nirvana does make one chuckle. Lets just say he is getting in his last shots. Go forth and poke and prod, but with a plan that leaves you unscathed and calm at night when your head hits the pillow.

10. Know us by our enemies,
and measure us by their tactics.

12. Yeah, why?
Seriously, it's not even as if he's tabling the occasional semi-intelligent idea. He's been delivering the same message for years, without adding anything new. If you listened to him once, five years ago, you don't need to listen to him now. There's no dissent, no original thought, just listener after listener calling in to reinforce what he's just told them to think.

It's the biggest, most self-congratulatory conservative circle-jerk in history--why do you want to be a part of that, even as a spectator?
