Rush (face of GOP) is defending AIG's bonuses & calling critics "Socialists for wanting to dictate"

[AnotherMother4Peace]

how corporations spend their money. This is no lie - I heard the tirade on his show today. I can't believe this GasBag actually has people who agree with him. I really think there is a cult mentality going on, like Marshall Applegate of Heaven's Gate or Jim Jones of Jonestown. Both these groups would do anything for their leader, including committing suicide (which is what they did).

1. That is NOT going to help him. nt

2. Typical fatcat republicon draft dodger with a drug-addled mind.

As far as the 'elite' republicons are concerned, their leader Rush Limbaugh has got it ALL going on: hates America, wants America to fail, looks down on working people and women, loves tax cuts for the rich --- and gets paid $38 million pieces of silver a year to spew the corporate fatcat propaganda.

3. Without controversy.... Rush would simply evaporate, strange as

that may be to envision.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

9. He doesn't do controversy for controversy's sake- he is who he is, he believes the crap

he spews forth. He constantly mocks and belittles women, gays, blacks, Mexicans, Democrats, teachers, union workers, retirees (yes, lately he's been saying retired people are on the dole), etc, etc. He defends corporations unconditionally. That's why, for the life of me, I can't figure out why anyone in their right mind would agree with this guy.

13. Actually, I think he'd sublimate

that is, go directly from solid to gaseous state, like dry ice. :P

4. AIG is spending OUR money, dickhead!

[Deja Q]

7. Penises have far more intellect than that brainless gassy blob would ever begin to contemplate.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

10. Yet there he is spewing forth his lies, unchallenged in the RW talk radio monopoly.

[Pirate Smile]

5. Good. Keep ranting for the Fat Cats, Rush. People associate him with the entire Republican Party

so the more he advocates extremely unpopular views, the better for the Democrats.

[Deja Q]

6. With all the methane that farts out of his mouth, I'm surprised that, when lighting his cigar,

he doesn't explode and provide enough natural gas to keep his home town brightly lit for a month.


BTW, Rushtoilet, here's a hint: Giving out taxpayer money to people who don't need it, don't want to work to earn it, or prefer to steal it from hard working folks is called WELFARE. You should know; especially regarding all the people you put under the same category - 80% of which don't deserve to be in there either.

Especially if they can say they can happily live on $1/year until the company remains profitable. (AIG, Citi, they're all the same.)

8. Naturally. His following thinks like this:

"Tax dollars for people other than upper-middle class to rich white guys such as myself = SOSHULISM!

Bailin' out 'n' bonus'n corporations that I'm a'gonna run someday . . . well that's basically OK."

[Naturyl]

11. If opposing the bonuses is socialism

Then color me red, comrades.

The GOP obviously fails to realize that by identifying "socialism" with increasingly reasonable populist positions, they are helping make the term LESS frightening to people.

[Berry Cool]

12. I believe Mr. Limbaugh just proved how out of touch with mainstream America

he is becoming with each passing day.

Uh, Rush, the average person is not defending AIG. The average person is royally PISSED. Perhaps even some of your listeners are pissed. Imagine that!

[AnotherMother4Peace]

16. He is taking less calls lately. He's been made a fool of several times by callers who have

outwitted him, & several loyal callers who were just plain pissed at him, e.g.: the elderly retired man who lambasted him for calling his retirement "being on the dole" (paraphrased) Rush finally hung up on this gentleman.

Limbaugh does not do well at all when he is challenged. He is only successful when he talks to ditto heads / his cult followers.

[Strelnikov_]

17. On the other hand, he is completely in touch with his paymasters n/t

[donheld]

14. That's great news

Just more ammo against the gas bag.

[bridgit]

15. Pft-BooWHAhahahaha!!! So he is a comedian after all?

"their money"!? What a twisted piece ah'freakish spew Limbaugh is :freak:
