So...When does Limbaugh get suspended?
Edited on Thu Apr-03-08 05:25 PM by lynyrd_skynyrd
"Why should Blacks be heard? They're 12% of the population.
Who the hell cares."


"I think this reason why girls don't do well on multiple choice
tests goes all the way back to the Bible, all the way back to Genesis,
Adam and Eve. God said, 'All right, Eve, multiple choice or
multiple orgasms, what's it going to be?'
We all know what was chosen"


"Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive
women easier access to the mainstream of society."


"One of the things I want to do before I die is conduct the
homeless olympics...the 10-metre shopping cart relay,
the dumpster dig, and the hop, skip, and trip."


"I don't give a hoot that Columbus gave some Indians a
disease that they didn't have immunity against"


"have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted
criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"


"If we are going to start rewarding no skills and stupid people--
I'm serious, let the unskilled jobs that take absolutely
no knowledge whatsoever to do--let the stupid and
unskilled Mexicans do that work."


"The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get
a liquor store and practice robberies"

WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE LIBERALS THAT GET SUSPENDED?

1. Our taxdollars pay to broadcast Limbaugh to our troops all over the world...
.... via The Armed Forces Radio Network, where people from foreign countries are presented with Rush Limbaugh as a representative whose views are officially endorsed by the U.S. Government.

Same goes for "Doctor Laura."

13. I think we are talking about Limbaugh, not Obama.
You could start your own thread.

2. Because Rush;s boss doesn't care about decency.
His assholishness is his selling point.

But I agree with he other poster that he has no business being on Armed Forces Radio.

4. That last quote is jaw-dropping.
Sure, Limbaugh tries to pass it off as "irreverent humor," but unlike Imus, it's clear he isn't even joking.

5. Because his base operates in lockstep belief with his venom.
On the left there's enough difference of opinion to where an activated number may disagree with a leading light and complain vociferously. Limbaugh's dittoheads would NEVER be self-reflective enough to let a little thing like uneasiness with coarse words from a racist bomb-tosser bother them to where they'd publicly challenge him.

6. Because.....
his bosses don't have the scruples of Air America, who sees no dignity, or honor in taking the road that lies beneath the low road.

""Geraldine Ferraro turned out to be David Duke in drag.
She's such a fucking whore! Hillary is a big fucking whore, too.
Oh, fuck you, Hillary."

Nuff said.

17. That's hilarious...
"Because his bosses don't have the scruples of Air America, who sees no dignity, or honor in taking the road that lies beneath the low road."

You don't know much about NYC or you wouldn't use "scruples" and the "bosses" of Air America (i.e. Mark Green) in the same sentence. Mr.Green has a reputation, and it extends way beyond being a dedicated Clintonian:

Mark Green, You Can’t Hide
Unmasking a Phony White Liberal
by Peter Noel
October 16th, 2001 12:00 AM
The Village Voice

http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0142,noel,29155,5.html

Mark Green, a Rudy Giuliani in the making, may have replaced the ironfisted Republican mayor as the most hated white man in the African American community.

Last Saturday, I sat riveted to my chair in Al Sharpton's House of Justice listening to the black activist read the Harlem riot act to the two-tongued Democrat, who many blacks now believe stole the mayoral runoff election from Fernando Ferrer. Sharpton, his jowly cheeks pouted in characteristic bullfrog ire, accused Green of remaining silent while racial alarmists—white editorial writers, columnists, and cartoonists—portrayed him as the man who would be the real power behind the mayoralty if Ferrer were to win.

The day after the election, Green, according to black activists and political leaders, launched a half-hearted attempt to repudiate the Sharptonphobia and reject the racialization of New York. His plea to people close to Sharpton is intended to get the angry kingmaker to put aside hurt feelings and come out in support of him against Republican nominee Michael Bloomberg.

But blacks like me are too traumatized by the racism that Green failed to put in check. We don't hug and make up that easily, bro. It's like being raped by a great uncle: You don't ever want to embrace the scumbag again.


What? "Leftish" Democrats who seem to play the "race card" every time... it's not possible, is it?

I will take the bet that if the situation were reversed and Obama was the target, then we would have heard a lecture on the First Ammendment (and no, I am not an Obama supporter).

8. What a disgusting piece of shit.
He'll never get suspended, never, he'll get to spew as much hate as he wants, indefinitely.

16. Rush is sacrosanct. Wish one of his ex-wives would talk.
They have to know the dirt on the dirtbag. He must pay beaucoup bucks to keep them quiet. Maybe one of these days a publisher will open up some big bucks to them in return, and we can finally find out about America's cyst.

Until then, he is protected. Glad to see Keith taking him on regularly now. He's in "worst persons" a lot.

19. Because he basically owns his own radio station.
Affiliates can drop him, obviously. But Rush doesn't really "work" for anyone.

23. Coming soon! The end of Limbaugh and RW Radio...Plan in works!
My friends, we will be finished with this crap if you all are ready to do your thing. For now, in preparation, tune in to your local broadcast of the idiots and jot down every local and national advertiser on that station during Rush's show. Then, if you have time, copy the address and Email addresses of said advertisers and soon there will be a special web site that will allow posting of these to make these available to other democrats, blacks, women and others who's business is apparently not wanted at these business establishments. What happens next is up to the listening (or not listening) public. I say enough, time to respond to Rush using the free enterprise system he loves so much.
