Limbaugh Calls Poor Children Receiving Free School Meals "Wanton Little Waifs And Serfs Dependent On The State"
December 12, 2011 2:43 pm ET

Listen to this all the way through. When I saw the headline I thought he must be trying one of his lame attempts at satire, but he's not. He's clearly of the very serious opinion that feeding needy children is wrong because they won't learn how to feed themselves. He especially objects to feeding them during the summer time, but says that this is to be expected because by feeding them during the school year they have become "wanton little waifs and serfs dependent on the state."

I guess he thinks poor second graders should get jobs so they can buy food. Apparently, he's now supporting Newtie.

1. when will this gasbag be taken off the air

truly he is disgusting

[Ikonoklast]

2. And he wants to touch them, oh, so badly.

[arely staircase]

4. he won't have any work for them - he offshoars that.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

6. Hence his use of the term "wanton"

which according to the dictionary carries the meaning of: "lewd, bawdy, inspiring sexual excitement".

[Matariki]

3. He's in the business of pissing people off

and does a good job at it.

This, about school children. About 6 and 9 and 10 year olds.

5. ps - his use of the word 'wanton' to describe school children speaks volumes about him

[freshwest]

11. +1,000

[Curmudgeoness]

7. Sigh. I don't know why anyone listens to him anymore.

It is all about having to top himself every day, and it has degenerated to the lowest common denominator.

I don't understand how even his dittoheads tolerate him these days.

[pinboy3niner]

8. A subtle allusion to 'curds and whey'?

Serfs and waifs/curds and whey. That's all he thinks the "wanton" little serfs and waifs deserve to eat. Hey, it was good enough for Little Miss Muffet!1!!

[GeorgeGist]

9. Rush is a clown.

Only fools take him seriously. Seriously!

[izquierdista]

10. I'll bet he loves Swift's "Modest Proposal"

”I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled ...”

From the looks of Limbaugh, he could probably finish a kindergarten class by lunchtime.

[Zoeisright]

12. I hate that fucking asshole's slimy guts.

If there was truly any karma, he'd be dead within a week after living in a gutter, suffering.

[tabasco]

13. Well said.

Totally agree.

[Azathoth]

14. What the hell is a "wanton" waif?

I guess the next step after inventing their own universe of conservative "facts" was to invent an entirely new dictionary of conservative definitions for english words.
