Limbaugh:Secession is "not the rantings of extreme kookism", some say "civil war" is "already on"
Edited on Thu Aug-05-10 02:02 PM by Adenoid_Hynkel
Yet another member of the right's army of failed rock DJ "patriots" who supported the tarring and feathering of the Dixie Chicks for harmless stage banter, but, now that Boosh is out of power, want to start a new civil war and dissolve the U.S.A. simply because their chosen GOP successor lost the election.

Why do they hate America so much?

See also: Michael "Savage" Weiner, who just 6 years ago wanted to reinstate the Sedition Act, and had a petion going on his website to amass support for locking up non-Republicans.

Media matters has the video:

Limbaugh: "Secession" is "not the rantings of extreme kookism anymore," "some might say the civil war is already on"

1. They are all so disgusting, and potentially, so dangerous.

7. Yep
Becks says it, Rush says it, faux news says it, so they simply use the other "morons" as sources for "some say"! These people are insane, pure and simple. Beck wants to be the head of his own religion, and turn them into an army. It's amazing that so many "christians" who would never allow a Mormon in their house, or talk with them because they don't think Mormons "are" christians, listen to Beck how is a Mormon and gets a lot of his stuff from very radical Mormons! He tells his listeners if "YOUR" church teaches social justice, giving to the poor and trying to help those who need it, then you should "LEAVE" them because it's all a plot to get socialism to take over the country, and the morons who listen to him buy into his BS! He is a con man, much like Hitler was. He use fear and lies to gain peoples trust, and then promotes his "own" ideas about religion, says God is telling him what needs to be done, and then promotes violence and the take over of the government! This guy has a very unhealthy infatuation with Hitler, and I really think he wants to be just like him and try and take over the country. That or his is simply completely insane and needs to be locked up!

4. Let them secede. The Blue States can have Progressive Policy
and the Red States can have their Regressive Conservative Policy.

We can trade with each other and visit back and forth and
live happily ever after.

10. I'm not giving them a goddam thing!
They can fucking well live by the laws of this country or else get their pasty backsides somewhere else! We've already fought a war over this horseshit. Guess what? The secessionists lost! They don't get to walk away with a fucking dime's worth of infrastructure or property that has been publicly funded whatsoever!

5. Rush will say
anything he believes will get him noticed and potentially increase his ratings.

Of course that doesn't work on most and it works on enough to make him very wealthy.

is for Limbaugh to get permanent laryngitis.

9. No chance of it...dear ol' Mississippi wouldn't last 15 minutes
Mississippi can't pave its roads, repair its bridges, or educate its children without massive infusions of federal assistance. Same thing with Alabama, Arkansas, and many other "red" states. Truth to tell, the more prosperous "blue" states would be all the better for scraping them off, but it will never, ever happen.

13. Someday they will have to put up or shut up on the "secession" talk.
After "Round 1" many years ago resolved but not entirely forgotten, no sitting American President will allow it, either major political party. Only a complete fool openly wishes for "Civil War". It would be a dream to see Limbaugh on the losing end of a war of secession, hung for sedition by the military he pretends to support. Even the so called "red states" have sizable numbers of civilians who will resist secession to the end. I am surprised this ass did not openly say "Bring it on".

15. Let's give the whackadoodles their own state and see how long it lasts.
Seriously wouldn't it be fun to watch it implode since they don't know how to handle finances and think the rich deserve everything? I'd give it six weeks tops before it turns into Somalia (which is ideally what they picture our government) and they come crawling back. I want to see them on their hands and knees begging when they do.
