Limbaugh uses Fargo floods to express anti-gay disgust (use of "dike" makes him uncomfortable)

[Bluebear]

As North Dakotans are forced from their homes and struggle with a flooding river, Republican Party leader Rush Limbaugh has other things on his mind.

Said Limbaugh: "I heard some top of the hour news and it made me feel uncomfortable. It's about the flooding in Fargo, North Dakota brought on by the melting snowpack and the icepack. (reading from news item) "As the Red River threatens to overflow, they're filling in the dikes." Isn't there a more appropriate word? Do we have to say, I mean, we don't have any dikes here. The 'dykes' are over there...They're filling in the dikes. Couldn't we change that to 'they're filling in the contingencies' or something?...We really need to change that word."

8. Don't bother, he wouldn't feel it

Try renting something from Bobcat. He might feel a little discomfort.

11. His ass wouldn't FIT in a double-wide

And neither would his ego.

However, his mind could easily fit into a jack for a stereo miniplug.

9. It's kind of sad...

I came up with a similar joke when I was six and heard the story of The Little Dutch Boy...

'twould appear that it took him about 28 years to catch up to a six year old's level of humor

10. They could fill the gaps

in the dikes by parking his ample butt and fat head in them.

12. It Isn't Limbaugh

who is the problem. It is people who are stupid enough to let him think for them. These are the same people who still think chimpy did a good job.

13. He has the sexual maturity of an 8-year old

No, I take that back. Some 8 year olds have more class than he does.
