Rush Limbaugh Demonizing Kennedy
So unfortunately, my cleaning lady listens to Rush Limbaugh, and I just heard him say the following things. I wont use quotes because they might not be exact, but they are generally what he said:


Rush on Kennedy:

- He was a drunk

- I have no sympathy for his family

- He was a far left marxist

- He's just living another part of his life

- He was arrested 4 times


-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
How could you possible be such a dick as to actually say this about someone who died, whether he agreed with you or not!

2. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.
More shocked than when I found out that water is wet, deserts are dry and there's gambling going on in Las Vegas.

5. Rush is jealous. He has no devoted family to support him and he
will only leave a legacy of hate and venom. He knows that when he passes it will probably be from an overdose, it won't be pretty and the world will kick him to the side of the road like the garbage he is.

6. This is honestly not news
He and his sheep have always despised Kennedy, because Kennedy did not shy away from expressing his views and because he was so effective. I worked in a conservative, rural area for awhile and alot of people had bumper stickers expressing their hatred for Senator Kennedy. Consider the source...

7. Rush makes Kennedy look like...
A sainted virgin in league with Mother Teresa.

I suspect Karma is saving up for Rush... his Karmic blowout is long overdue.

8. Rush is an imbecile drug addict who is to point fingers at any one.
Rush also can't get it up. Rush had his suitcase packed with Viagra for his encounters with little boys. Yuck.

13. Says a lot more about Rush than anyone else, doesn't it?
Trashing somebody on radio before he's even been buried takes a special breed of low-life, bottom-feeder to do that.

14. He is not fit to lick Ted Kennedy's shoes--he's a hater and pure evil
Ted wasn't a "perfect" man, but he was a human of the times. That he was born so privileged and chose to work his ass of as a public servant who helped the voiceless means nothing to the demon Rush, nor do I expect Rush to have an ounce of compassion for those people.

Rush is the worst America has ever produced.

Kennedy is one of the best, warts and all.


"Every American should have the opportunity to receive a quality education, a job that respects their dignity and protects their safety, and health care that does not condemn those whose health is impaired to a lifetime of poverty and lost opportunity."

Supporting the Troops and Defending the Nation
As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and Chairman of the Subcommittee on Seapower, Senator Kennedy fought tirelessly for the men and women of our armed services and their families.

Ensuring Disabled Americans Can Live Productive Lives
A sponsor of landmark legislation including the Civil Rights Commission Act Amendments and the Americans with Disabilities Act, Senator Kennedy worked his entire career to secure a higher quality of life for men and women with disabilities.

Ensuring High Quality Education for All
Making sure everyone had access to a high-quality education – particularly the most disadvantaged – was a major legislative priority for Senator Kennedy throughout his career in the United States Senate.

Protecting the Environment and Promoting Energy Efficiency
Senator Kennedy had a long and distinguished record as a supporter of clean, renewable sources of energy who sought to reduce the nation’s reliance on fossil fuels.

Providing a Leading Voice for Human Rights and Democracy around the Globe
During his career in the United States Senate, Senator Kennedy was a leading voice for human rights, social justice and democracy throughout the world.

Fighting for Quality, Affordable Health Care
Throughout his Senate career -- and especially during his service as Chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee -- Senator Kennedy championed the cause of quality, affordable health care for all Americans.

Championing Civil Rights & Promoting Fairness and Equal Opportunities for All
Senator Kennedy believed that civil rights remain America’s great unfinished business, and he had a major role in every civil rights battle in Congress for the past half century.

Fighting for Workers’ Rights and a Fair Minimum Wage
Senator Kennedy spent his career standing up for the rights of workers, the backbone of America's economy, battling for workplace safety, mine safety, fair wages, the right to organize and more.

15. And when you die, Mr. Limbaugh?
Edited on Thu Aug-27-09 02:34 PM by gratuitous
Well, Ted Kennedy will still be interred at the national shrine of Arlington. Your rotting corpse will be making some poor maggot puke.

18. I honestly think OxyRush's will requests cremation.




He is realistic enough to know how many people would want to defile his grave.

So he will probably want his ashes spread somewhere. Maybe the Dominican Republic. :eyes:

17. Rush is a drug-addicted pedophile who needs OxyContin AND Viagra when he...
goes to the Dominican Republic or so rumor has it. Who cares what a rumored drug-addicted pedophile has to say, I certainly don't.

20. Water is wet, Rush is an asshole
I'm so not surprised but it's the same reaction spewing from the maws of the reich-wing blowhards.

If this crap is being spewed in your house, I'd tell the cleaning lady to turn that shit off, wear an ipod if she HAS to listen to it or pound sand if she can't stop listening. My Mom listens to & watches this crap all of her waking hours. I don't go to her house unless I can turn it off and I won't let her turn that garbage on here in my house. Simple enough.

23. Agree. How can you trust that person to be alone in your house? Replace her with
a real person who would benefit from the job.

Do not waste the employment position on a reich-winger.

31.  This is simply disgusting but I shouldn't be surprised considering who said it.
There is certainly no reason for all that hatred. Didn't agree with Senator Kennedy... fine, but this:

"- I have no sympathy for his family"

Is revolting and speaks volumes about the trash we all know Rush is. I just don't see a point of personal attacks on the deceased or especially the family. I also have no doubt I'll be making these same statements against many here on this board when one someone from the right dies.

33. I glanced through the National Post today (Canada's right wing newspaper that
has never made a profit but keeps publishing). They trashed Kennedy too. I often read them just to get an idea of what neocons are up to. I couldn't stand it. I threw the paper out.

Remember how nuclear the GOP was at Paul Wellstones funeral because it was a "partisan" affair? OF COURSE IT WAS PARTISAN. I hope that the fear the right wing has of people empathising with Kennedy and lovivng his legacy proves to be true and then get crushed by people moving to the centre from the right wing (because they remember a time when Kennedy's were around and one's personal politics wasn't all about fear).

I look forward to a fall filled with great Ted Kennedy stories and I hope his books is a best seller.

37. He's pre-emptying the media-That's Limbaughs job, he does it extremely well & there are good reasons
Edited on Thu Aug-27-09 10:10 PM by LaPera
for it......

Limbaugh doesn't want his listeners to be swayed by any progressive who may be getting some sympathy from the media, and mostly because he doesn't want the progressives views & ideology to be heard and go un-trashed to the uninformed, uneducated robots who do as the republicans want them to.

Limbaugh HAS to trash the liberal progressive...Can't you understand why, from his sick ideology & perspective, that all the liberals stand for is wrong....It's a matter of republican survival to trash, and republicans ALWAYS know trashing ones character is the fastest and most effective way to go about it....the republicans are master at trashing enemies character.

Limbaugh has to jump on it immediate or some of the sheep might listen that Kennedy wasn't such a bad guy....He has to give his dittoheads ammo and stats, as to why they should hate Kennedy (or any liberal in question) so Limbaugh loads them up with all the ugly ammo & trash they'll need and for the other talking heads to follow.

Limbaugh always does this he immediate says the worst to pre-empty any good things and/or sympathy and once Limbaugh does it he gives the cue it's OK for the other republicans to do it and trash liberals and they better because Limbaugh just set the table for the....

It's a wise move for Limbaugh to keep the sheep in the right-wing corner and not to stray...it's done purposely and he does it ALL the time I don't know why anyone would be surprised? it's slimeball tactics and what he's paid to do and he does it because he know he has to for his side and he does it with such glee and hate for the left.

Gee, Rush. Not everyone can be a junkie pedophile like you!! Was Ted Kennedy perfect? Far from it. Was he a womanizer? Yes. That was between him and Joan. The women he had affairs with were adults. They had the choice about this. Hell, Ted Kennedy probably had more women by accident that you had on purpose, Rush. Being born into wealth and priveledge doesn't mean that you are immune to problems that plague other people. It also doesn't have to make you a self centered son of a Bush. You (Rush) seem to forget that one George W Bush was also a drunk and a cocaine addict. He had also been arrested for drunk driving. One time he had his sister in the car with him. Ted Kennedy could have sat around like the idle rich looking for a way to improve his tennis or golf game. He chose to serve the public, especially those who were less fortunate than he was. I get the impression that he and his siblings were taught that to whom much is given, much is expected. That's also a lesson that was passed onto their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

41. Don't worry Rush
Senator Kennedy had more charm, grace, intelligence, decency, integrity and honesty and patriotism during his time here on earth than you could ever hope to dream of having if you lived for inifinite lifetimes

When the history books are written, Senator Kennedy will be remembered as one who changed this world for the better and made it infinitely better for his existence. You will just be remembered as a cancer on humanity
