Composing a birthday message to Rush. Additions welcome
On his birthday, I wanted to take the time to remind him of things he's taught us over the years that he seems to have forgotten.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Rush's 'Undeniable Truths'

Character matters; leadership decends from character.

There's a simple way to solve the crime problem: obey the law; punish those who do not.

If you commit a crime, you are guilty.

Compassion is no substitute for justice.

Too many Americans can't laugh at themselves anymore.

Follow the money. When somebody says, "It's not the money," it's always the money.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm also including these 'Commandments of the Religious Left' he wrote, that he seems to embrace..

Thou shalt have no other God except thyself; after all, it's thy self-esteem that counts. If thou doth not love thyself, who will?

Thou shalt not bear false witness. Unless thou art discussing the history of the 1980's, art campaigning, or can afford good legal counsel in the event that thou art discovered.

Always hide the real truth about thyself.

Never admit who or what thou really art when campaigning for office.

Always blame someone else for what thou dost - even so far as to blame the entire society. (Or vast left wing conspiracy)

Thou shalt oppose all punishment

---------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to include a few excerpts from the poem 'Sir William Rushes In' by the non-existent 'Mr. Snerdley', that still apply today.

"His cabinet offers
a chance to see why
the best or the brightest
don't need to apply

A quota will do it
a "look" for success
don't worry about it
we'll hire some
illegal immigrant
to clean up this mess...

So when the Democrats attempt
a huge spending spree (Who's spending $87 billion in Iraq?)
this time we'll have Rush Limbaugh
telling them the Way Things Ought To Be! (Unless you're convicted, of course)


Happy birthday, Rush!

2. An Aside
Edited on Mon Jan-12-04 10:55 AM by StClone
If you watched the FAUX pregame show you saw a humorous (bordering on vicious) skit slamming on LIMBAUGH! "Humble one" took it upon himself to take credit for McNabb's success this season because "his (Limbaugh's) comments lit a fire under Donovan's ass."

McNabb pushing by Snirdley to bash Limbos's face was funny but kinda shallow humor. McNabb does his in your face on the field and won't pick on paunchy, defenseless, old, white gas bags.

4. I second that...
I'm really angry at myself for missing it, because Frank Caliendo's impressions of Rush are always spot-on.

GO EAGLES! :yourock:

5. He did
Limbaugh's grandious pompiety came shining through in Caliendo's portrayal.

6. Dear Rush,
You'll admit to your hypocrisy
The day that piggies fly.
So Happy Oxy-birthday, Rush,
Now overdose and die.

7. Forth and Twenty Six!
This is a play that is destined for the Hall of Fame.

Not bad for an over rated QB.

Rush has made me a Philly fan, Go Eagles!!

13. I'm not a big football fan, but I'm rooting for Philly, too
All because of one bigoted drug addict.
