DON"T MAKE CHRIS CHRISTIE CRY!!!!!
Apparently Rush Limpballs has his knickers in a twist over Springsteens' "lowrent character" in daring to insult his "biggest fan", Chris Christie...
http://www.mediaite.com/online/limbaugh-tears-into-low-rent-character-springsteen-for-making-fun-of-christie-with-fallon/
Bruce Springsteen joined Jimmy Fallon Tuesday night for a Born to Run parody about BridgeGate, but Rush Limbaugh didnt find anything amusing about it, instead going after Springsteen for being so willing to mock the governor, a man who has said time and again he is such a huge Springsteen fan.
Limbaugh was bothered that Springsteen had the nerve to mock and deride such a big fan of his just because hes a Republican. To Limbaugh, the only people viewed as real fans of artists and celebrities like Springsteen cant possibly be conservative.
Limbaugh concluded, And here is the guy who brought him to tears by talking to him making fun of him on a late night comedy show. That is reallyyou talk about low rent character.

Conservative radio host and political commentator Limbaugh was appalled that Springsteen had the nerve to ridicule one of his biggest fans just because hes a Republican.
There's no question that's painful. The nerve of Springsteen! Governor Christie has attended over 127 Springsteen concerts. Governor Christie loves this guy. It's 127 different concerts he's attended, and he's mocked, he's made fun of, Limbaugh said.
Referring to the first meeting between Springsteen and Christie which had the New Jersey Governor very emotional, Limbaugh said the musician ought to be ashamed of himself.
That is reallyyou talk about low rent character, he concluded.

(7,044 posts)He's too tempting a target to resist...Rush is a consummate Chickenhawk Republicon Draft-dodging serial-spousing pill-popping bloviator and spinner. In that way he is a compleat embodiment not of Republicon propaganda, but of the reality of Republicon so-called "Family Values."

You can call them liars and cheats and they won't feel a thing. But get them where they really live, concert tickets and music idols, and their whole worlds fall apart.

Fuck Rush Limpballs it's bad enough he voices his damn opinion when it comes to politics but now he's sounding off on everything else imaginable.

(15,064 posts)piss on stupidly idiotic asshole right wingers like you and your good old boy bigoted friends. You have hate down to a science. You wrap it in false assumptions and fiction so it is palatable and easier to be racist and anti women without really coming out and saying the "n" word or the "c" word. But that "slut" thing it was genius. That word is really working for you. Keep on using it. You could start calling yourself Slut Limbaugh. It's edgy. Sounds better than Rush and puts people in their place. Follow you bliss Limpy and keep people informed of what a true greedy rich Viagra Oxycontin taking asshole you are capable of being. Push it to the max. Courage! Wait that's a Dan Rather thing and you don't want to say something a caring compassionate liberal says.

Go fuck yourself, Limburger.

(34,108 posts)Why would Christie be so crazy about a singer who stands for the opposite of what Christie stands for?
Like Paul Ryan saying Rage Against The Machine is his favorite band.
Do these idiots even listen to their "faves" lyrics?

muriel_volestrangler
(101,368 posts)He sees chances to stir up the mouth-breathers who listen to him, for fun and profit, like this. An advertiser leaving his show - that's what makes him furious. Someone reminding the world of his drug addiction, or his cowardly draft-dodging - these are things that affect him. He is a pure narcissist.

I've seen Bruce live twice in the last 36 years (1978, 2000) and he has more talent and soul and decency in his little toenail than those two losers Christie and Limbaugh.
Limbaugh is a loser crybaby. I thought the parody was funny -- I loved "tollbooths of glory!"
Rush can't stand a bit of mild poking fun, but he has no problem with trying to destroy other peoples' reputations, like Sandra Fluke.

On edit: lol, first post mentions her name! Sandra Fluke, that's her.
