Rush's "Who you gonna believe ME or your lying eyes?" moment just now
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 11:47 AM by underpants
I just heard this running to get lunch.

Rush couldn't believe this story from the "John Kerry transcript service" better known as the AP wire:
http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/politics/9924478.htm?1c

For 83-year-old Dorothy Van Asdale, of Yuma, Ariz., the debates offered a firsthand look at a Democratic candidate she knew about mostly through the narrative of conservative radio commentator Rush Limbaugh.

"I listen to Rush Limbaugh when I'm in my car," she said. "We can only get one radio station really clear around here. It's so negative. I never heard a good thing about Kerry."

But when she tuned in to the presidential debates, she "liked Kerry's presence. I liked the way he spoke."


Rush couldn't figure out how to pronounce her last name and then said, ~"How can Dorothy have been listening to what I have been saying and then watched the debate and NOT have concluded anything other than that I have been right all along???".

Seems Dorothy can only pick up one radio station and so all she knew of Kerry was what Rush had told her.

WHO ARE YOU GOING TO BELIEVE ME OR YOUR LYING EYES?

His Rush-ness dedicated today's show to Dorothy Van Asdale or Arsdale or whatever it is and said that he would love to talk to her...."Let's call someone we know in the CIA Hey! Let's call Ashcroft!!!"

Commercial break.

2. Dorothy strayed from the script. It's supposed to be "Heil Rush/megadittos
". Be a good nazi Dorothy, and follow the script as outlined.

4. You know why
he has to make such a big deal out of this lady don't you?

If it gets out that a true "dittohead" has been converted, his rating will drop like a rock. He can't have NEWS showing Rush to be wrong on ANYTHING! He's got to ridicule her and "flip" her before she starts a stampede.

Ego-driven.

Ratings-driven

Out-and-out fear.

Dorothy:Well Mr.Limbaugh it was just that what you had been saying..

Rush:WHAT DID I SAY?

Dorothy:Well you have been very negative

Followed by more screaming and yelling at an 83 year old woman and occassional pounding his fist on the desk.

11. The problem is that the airwaves are filled with
hideous anti-Kerry propaganda and the debates were a chance for him to show his mettle.

12. Yes sadly he has to be a one man media army
I think a lot of people were surprised to actually see him and take a measure of him.

He catches flack for not saying everything WE want him to but he would seem like a crazed maniac. He couldn't present himself as he is.
I was guilty of doing this when W said that flu vaccine could be coming from Canada....a week after saying that we should FEAR Canadian drugs even the re-imported ones. That was set up to hit out of the park but Big John decided to take another route, which worked.

15. Good for Dorothy!
Kudos to her for watching the debates herself and seeing the light. I hope she encourages other "dittoheads" to do the same.

As Al Franken said, "Rush Limbaugh is a big, fat IDIOT!":kick:

16. Okay, first, he attacked a "loyal" listener, which probably pissed
her off.

Then, what's likely is that she just may go out and get herself a satellite radio. Not the one tied in with Clear Channel.

Wow. Someone who has nothing to listen to but Rush, and she's had her mind changed!

"Hey, come back here, you're not supposed to think, I'm supposed to tell you what to think!"
