Hey Rush Limbaugh!

[imanamerican63]

Just shut up! This is an extremely dangerous storm & people had better listen to the authorities warnings!

[SHRED]

1. I'll bet Rush is evacuating

If he's even there.

[Bengus81]

2. He might be there for another day or so and then fire up the jet....

and BLOW for NY or some other location. Hope to hell his Palm Beach mansion gets leveled.

[Tikki]

4. But then...since Irma is a hoax...his mansion can't get damage and he...

better not file for any insurance reimbursement 'cause that would be fraud.

3. I am getting my fake house and my fake belongings.....

.....ready for the fake hurricane coming to the real Daytona Beach area.

I have fake muscle aches from shoveling the fake sand into bags, and placing around my fake house doors. Putting fake plywood on the fake windows. And will probably be going to the fake shelter, unless we decide to get into our fake car with our fake kitties and drive up the fake roads in a fake traffic jam to a fake location to get the hell out of the way of the fake hurricane.

Ugh. It is depressing. A year ago we did the same drill for Matthew. And nobody had the audacity to call it fake.

But I guess we are living in different times now....

Rush is a real prick

[MLAA]

9. Good luck and Godspeed if you hit the fake road away from fake danger😃

[leftynyc]

10. Wishing you

and your kitties well. I couldn't leave mine behind so my choices would be limited also.

5. He's just trying to stay relevant.

7. To he crazies who don't yet qualify for an involuntary psych unit, apparently.

Apparently he's pushing the idea that fake weather news starts as a plot by retailers to panic people into cleaning out their shelves. But that's only the opportunistic tip of the loony-tunes iceberg: It's all about the "liberal agenda" to sink the ship of state, including by manufacturing hurricanes.

WaPo:

More broadly, Limbaugh's bad advice reveals the metastasizing nature of “fake news” attacks on the press, which have been led by President Trump. How did we get from Trump's claim that he has “never seen more dishonest media than, frankly, the political media” to the idea that weather reports are phony, too?

Alex Jones might have something to do with it. The Infowars founder — who has an “amazing” reputation, according to Trump — has for years promoted the notion that the U.S. government possesses the power to conjure and control weather events. Just last week, as Hurricane Harvey battered Texas, Jones devoted part of his show to questioning why the government didn't “use the technologies to kill [the storm] out in the gulf.”

“It is weird how these storms go,” he said, suggesting Harvey might have been manufactured or manipulated. “They just sit over a city.”

Jones's contention is that the government — or, more precisely, the “deep state,” now that Trump is president — uses its “weather weapon” to stoke fear of climate change and promote a liberal agenda.

15. As I Said In Another Thread. . .

. . .when did the big fat idiot start criticizing businesses making profit? Suddenly he's against profit?

[Hortensis]

16. Lol. Never. Just playing his foolish listeners, as usual.

[Dirty Socialist]

6. He's just joking

That's what my brother would say.
Fucking sick joke.

[underpants]

8. The last two days have been nothing but ME ME ME victimization

I've caught some of his show the last few days running errands at lunch.

He said he had no idea about the criticism until Eric Ericsson tipped him off Tuesday night. He said he gets "no feedback" and then went after the reporter on the Daily Beast (same guy who got body slammed) saying that HE lived in an "emotion cocoon" totally cut off from the world.

Anyway since then it's all been about how he was right, he knows more than the hurricane experts, everyone is attacking him, oh and a repeated condescending bit about filling up containers with tap water.

12. When Rush says this crap...abject lies......when is he ever going to be held responsible?

Dan Rather. Brian Williams. And others. Make a mistake and you pay the price.

With Rush, he knows full well this is a lie. It is not as if he is making a bad weather prediction,. He also knows he will not be held responsible for it.

[Dirty Socialist]

13. That's never gonna happen

Commercial radio is a right wing propaganda cesspool. The only thing that will work at all is a sponsor boycott.

[ollie10]

14. And....when is Trump going to attack Rush for spreading FAKE NEWS? n/t

[louis-t]

11. Remember, this is the man who claimed 'El Nino' was fake.

He told his listeners to ignore the warnings and people died. I'm going to look it up and post.

[ProgressiveValue]

17. He is a fake human and fake political commentator.
