Limpballs: "The Republican Party is today's oppressed minority"
Rush Limbaugh: The Republican Party Is "Today's Oppressed Minority"
by BarbinMD
Wed May 27, 2009 at 05:02:04 PM PDT

From the titular head of the Republican Party:

"If ever a civil rights movement was needed in America, it is for the Republican Party. If ever we needed to start marching for freedom and constitutional rights, it's for the Republican Party. The Republican Party is today's oppressed minority, and it know how to behave as one." The GOP, Rush continued, know to go to the "back of the bus" and drink from the right water fountain. Rush then assured us that he is an "intellectual," whereas Obama is a "narcissist." And just in case you're not sure what that means, Rush elaborated: "He's like Narcissus." Washington, D.C., Rush concluded, is the "Old South" for Republicans, and they are comfortable being an "oppressed minority."

Please mock and deride.

7. I mean really. I've been sitting here
trying to think of what to say, and you just summed it up: That drugged-up motherfucker just gets crazier with each passing day.

Wow. What a fucking loon.

3. Oh, WAAAAAAH!

I'm sure Emmett Till is in heaven weeping and praying over what injustice has wrought upon poor, (but disgustingly rich) white males.

On edit: I feel the need to invoke Emmett Till as often as I can, first, because it is the most horrific thing I've ever read done to a human being, and I can't forget this young, beautiful boy, and thereafter, because maybe that means his torture and death, and the injustice that followed weren't in vain. I do not do it to be glib, in other words.

4. rush needs a course in demographics. White males are NOT a majority in America
Nor are they oppressed. He just thinks so because all those brassy woman and people of color refuse to bend over and kiss his fat white ass.

I am liking government that is FINALLY looking a bit like America. Still mostly white males, but getting more representative of the population all the time. And THAT is what rush is really pissed about. He isn't the boss of us and he feels threatened when we don't pretend he is.

5. And how exactly are Republicans oppressed?
Can the legally marry? Yes. Can the speak without fear of government reprisal? Yes. Do they have the same access to education as everybody else? No. They often have better because they have more money. Can they practice their bigoted and backward version of Christianity openly and freely? Yes.

Are Rush Limbaugh and the Republican Party the biggest, sorriest, most pathetic pieces of whining shit on the planet? Yes.

6. Make that SELF-oppressed minority, Rush.
The party's problem is that they're about their leadership, not their members. That's why they're their own worst enemies.

15. Bwahahahah! Oppressed? OK Rush, now go back to your 24,000 sq ft estate and be oppressed some more
This would be pure comedy if it wasn't for the fact there are some mouth-breathing knuckle-draggers who'll buy into that idiot's statement.

17. In Limbaugh's own words: "Na Na Na Na Na Naaa!!" I remember back in the 80's when a caller took him
Edited on Wed May-27-09 09:12 PM by Pushed To The Left
to task for doing that, saying something to the effect of, "Na Na Na Na?? That's your definition of excellence in broadcasting?"

21. OxyMan doesn't actually know what is an oppressed minority.
When Republicans are denied basic human rights for more than a century, then yeah ok.

When Republicans are beaten or killed because they are such, then yeah, ok, maybe.

Until then, no freaking way.

Oppressed minority DOES NOT MEAN that because you are no longer in power that you must now pay an extra 1% in income taxes for being a rich idiot.

Comparing Republicans as being "oppressed" on the same level of that of blacks, women, and GLBT is stupid.

22. The rhetoric has impact because many of his listeners do have it rough
Rush and the like help them to stay distracted from seeing how they are screwing themselves. There are crap loads of poor and working-middle class Republicans, stupid assholes, and like all poor and working class-middle class folks they are up against it so they're extra pissed. I say good for them, I hope the stress of their "oppression" is so intense they either reboot their locked up brains or blow a circuit.

24. I'm gonna burn an elephant effigy on his lawn, while wearing a pointy rainbow uniform?
Wow. Just..... wow.

Maybe he's saving up his Holocaust references for a future show, about 'how the "liberals" are killing them and sending them to gas chambers'?

(Actually, a rainbow KKK uniform would be a hoot, just for the head-turning confusion...)
