Limbaugh minimizing Duke Cunningham's crimes....

[kentuck]

He asks if any of his dittoheads remember William Jefferson? Or Robert Torricelli? But I don't recall any of these guys admitting guilt and crying for forgiveness?? If they did something criminal, don't we have a Republican Justice Dept? Are they not doing their job? If the Democrats have committed crimes, then investigate and prosecute. Or shut the hell up!

1. Of course embezzeling 2.4 million isn' t much!

:sarcasm:

[LondonReign2]

8. $2.4M??? Chump change!

Mr. Dukestir simply isn't even in the *same league* as Mr. Big Dick, Poppy, and Rumfilled. Getting caught is for the little guys-- the pros in the admin are above these antiquated little things called *laws*.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

15. In fairness, he didn't embezzle it. He took it in bribes, to sell out his

constituents for his personal financial gain.

[sakabatou]

19. Ah well...

:boring:

[Flying Dream Blues]

2. Desperados have to stick together, ya know. nt

[Warpy]

3. Well, think of the crimes that Fatso has committed

and spent the last several years trying to rationalize away. He's an experienced personal responsibility dodger who's just trying to share the wealth.

[DemoTex]

5. Bingo. Limbaugh is a drug user hanging under threat of indictment.

Maybe Ru$hbo and the Duke could share a cell together in the Big House.

[Double T]

4. Limbaugh believes that it is OK to be an INDICTABLE CRIMINAL......

as long as you are 'conservative' and a member of the republican party.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

16. Duke isn't "indictable", he's pled guilty, resigned, and going to jail.

[gratuitous]

6. War profiteering isn't so bad, says Rush

Who cares if old Duke chiseled the Defense Department so he could get a bigger, nicer house? I mean, it's not like we're at war or anything. You know, where people could die because of defense contractor corruption. Certainly nothing nearly as serious as an extramarital affair!

[snippy]

7. How very republican. n/t

[Cleita]

9. Well, crooks always minimize crimes, not only theirs but

those of others. What I was struck with was the apology. It sort of reminded me of Jimmy Swaggart, when he was caught with a hooker. The right wing is full of corruption and decadence and they think an apology when caught is going to make it all good and they will be forgiven.

Well, I'm for bringing justice and then incarceration to these clowns as well as instant poverty by siezing their estates and paying back national debt with the money, or replacing what was stolen from the Social Security fund.

[Marr]

10. Hmm. I thought Bill Clinton was reprehensible. Now he's the standard for

acceptable conduct?

Interesting.

[MadisonProgressive]

14. I never had a BJ I didn't like!

[jsamuel]

11. but stealing diapers from a walmart after a hurricane is treason

:eyes:

[TheCowsCameHome]

12. They (R's) commit so many crimes it's tough to pick the biggest crook

Even the drug addict can't keep pace with the thieves and robbers in the GOP.

[bowens43]

13. It's a lame variation on

the "Clinton's Penis Defense". When caught just shout out 'What about Clinton's Penis?'.

[Loonman]

17. Clinton and Toricelli have nothing to do with this

Drug addicted idiot. Republicans are such brain dead morons they can't sneeze without bringing up Clinton.

[JohnnyRingo]

18. Rush is not a Republican.....He's a conservative Independent

...Who ALWAYS sides with republicans.
To the point that his broadcasts seem ghost written by Mehlman and Rove.
Or maybe the other way around, I can't tell anymore in this echo chamber.
What a GOP liar

[cantstandbush]

20. Just s he tried to minimize his own crimes. n/t
