According to Limbaugh.....
...Paul Wellstone's funeral was "planned by the DNC."

Can anyone prove this to be yet another lie from "The Great American Truth Detector"????

1. And his loyal listeners fail to see him continue to desecrate
Wellstone after death - even as he heaps abuse on DU and Dems in general for any shot taken at Reagan? What mindless, soul-less people.

2. I don't try to prove/disprove things any more with RWers
I just say "Man, what a pack of lies...you must be an ignorant fuckstick to believe that bullshit!!!"

I refuse to be their research assistant.

6. First of all, it wasn't a funeral...
... it was a memorial service. Wellstone's corpse wasn't there.

This is just how Limbaugh operates. These assertions he makes do two things; unchallenged, it works towards his favor, challenged, it wastes the time and effort of those he works against. He just continues this process ad naseum.

7. Fat Pig of a man
How do we defend against such provoctivity that streams from the air in such a torrent as to make grown men weep and the less grounded men flail as if drowning in a heap of elephant dung ?
What do we do ?
Ignore them , Pretend their not there ? Or rant the raving of the righteous and demand at least this cross between unfettered Corporatism and old time Fascism be labeled as obscene and not for the faint of heart.

Personally. I tell em to F**k off and go about my business.

How do you spell hypocrite ?

L.I.M.B.A.U.G.H


Not worthy of your time and efforts.

8. Even if it was, it wouldn't be true
The DFL runs the show in Minnesota Democratic politics.

And Rush claimed the other day that LBJ didn't have a state funeral. Does he ever cite sources for this bullshit?

10. And his death was planned by the "RNC"
Wait, Limbaugh is full of shit.

The DNC had nada to do with it. In fact, the television stations decided to air the event on their own-it was not requested that they do so.

This was a public memorial service and Wellstone friends/family and supporters had a right to mourn any damned way they wanted.

14. It was a public memorial service
See Rush, that's what happens when a beloved politician dies suddenly. And though such a thing doesn't exist in your twisted, little world, out here where real people live free from enslavement to oxycontin, we actually elect people to office because we like what they stand for and respect their passion for public service.

You, however, are a small little-minded person who doesn't understand anything that doesn't involve money or addictive drugs. By the way, how's the wife? Or have you noticed yet that she's gone?

16. Who cares if it was?
What does he make of Ronald Reagan's Three Ring Elephant Circus this week? That is ok? What business is it of Limball's who paid for Wellstone's unless it is the government itself.
