Rush Limbaugh did not, repeat did NOT, like the Politco article about the "anti-Palin movement."



Did you notice that to make his point, Rush had to misquote the article?  You know if the truth is not enough to make your point, then you don't have a point.

And the reason that nobody went after Republican icon Ronald "cue the halo" Reagan like this is because he was not an absolute fraud like Sarah Palin.  Oh he was bad alright, just not Sarah Palin bad.

And just to be crystal clear, nobody is trying to make up things to "destroy Sara hPalin."  All we are doing is trying to get to the truth which hides behind the fallacies surrounding Palin.

If that truth "destroys" her that is on her, NOT on the people reporting that truth to the American people.

    Destroy Palin? Does he mean like SHE has destroyed others? Troopergate, the young man in prison for hacking into her computer, the young man she is accusing of threatening to rape her daughters? Destroy like that? Dare I mention "destroy" in the case of Curtis Menard with water in his gas tank? Incidentally, coming from a despicable, fat blob like Limbaugh who's life work is destroying people, this is laughable. Another right winger who has absolutely no respect for intelligence, just loves him some "dumb and clueless" bimbo.

    Sarah's problem is simply... too many lies, too many skeletons in closet and too many lapses of ethics.

    If these did not exist... there would be no books.

    Rush, limp balls, has no crediability whatsoever and spews venom and lies every time his ugly mouth opens. This country would be so much greater without his ugliness. How anyone on the left or right stands to listen to the sewage coming forth from his mouth beats me.

    He should have never had a job in tv or radio cause he is just the bottom of the trash heap. God Bless America and screw Ruch, the limp one.

    Rush and the rest act as if we are afraid of Sarah Palin. Our only fear is that if an uneducated shill like Sarah Palin can command so much attention for doing so little, where is our nation headed? We have seen the results of her fear campaign....instead of a deficit reducing single payer health plan, we got the mucky AFA, and the resultant whining from the GOP over that. Instead of respect for the elected President, we have the absolute lie about him, many fed from her first speeches. Ignorance, Mr. Limbaugh is not bliss, and the truth about this woman will set ever you free.

    Well, after Lawrence O'Donnell's takedown of Rush last night, this is probably kinda small potatoes on Rush's hit list now. lol LOD was genius last night--painted Rush squarely in a corner. He can either keep lying about what Jesus said and piss off his entire audience, or he can insist that Jesus was wrong and piss off his entire audience.

    Saint Sarah is still a few rungs down the ladder from Jesus, last time I checked--even for the bots.

    Like Rush has never done anything dishonest and illegal. He knows how pesky it is when people check into things and expose the truth. It's people like him that reinforce the the fact that you shouldn't always take someone's word for something.

    You wonder how a person like Rush can live with himself and have any self-pride. It's one thing to encourage healthy dialog and debate, that's a good thing. It's shameful to do it in a way that fuels animosity. He's just a big bully. What a great way to run the country we love, on fear. How patriotic.

    Rush is such a pollyanna, saying " I have never read anything like this article, where someone is trying to destroy someone"
    What a crock. Hey Slimebaugh, what about your show in 1993 where you portrayed a 13 year old Chelsea Clinton to be a whore in your radio show? That's right, you did a segment where Chelsea displayed the condoms in her purse.

    Picking on a 13 year old President's daughter on national radio as a whore.
    THAT IS RUSH LIMBAUGH, friends.

    What about calling the PResident a "Magic Negro" in a song parody?

    Rush the drug dealing assh*le, you have no credibility

    Rush says he's "wrackin' my brain" trying to remember any other time when anyone was persecuted and vilified like this.

    Can't remember Rush? Lemme help ya: it was Bill Clinton. Bill and Hillary Clinton.

    And YOU were the main one spreading the lies and innuendo.

    It made your career - doncha member?

    Rush harkens even further back - and compares Palin to Richard Nixon. How appropriate.

    Nixon was a self-deluded paranoid that thought he was above the law. He had an enemies list and hey - he, too, had plumbers!

    The Watergate tapes destroyed Nixon - reduced him to a gibbering mess on David Frost's TV show - and it well may be the Troopergate emails that do the same to Palin, except her breakdown is likely to come on Fox News.

    After the Frost interview, Nixon retired to San Clemente - a defeated, disgraced, broken man. A pariah. A punchline. A stain in American history.

    Gryph, if you'll recall, it was here on your blog, over a year ago, I predicted Glenn Beck's end as laughing all the way to the bank - while Sarah Palin's end would be a total mental breakdown.

    I guess we'll soon see, eh?

    I disagree. You all assume she's running for office. There's really no proof of that. She's living the life that was handed her through her personal and professional decisions. You have no control over other people's lives, unless you have a God complex and need a psych evaluation. She's doing a lot more good than harm in today's effed up world of eastern violence and oppression. I think we'd be in a worse place without her.

    Sad.

    Are you fucking serious? Do you honestly believe that Rushblo is spreading love, peace and harmony through the airwaves? Or is it that you are just in complete agreement with a racist bigot who spews nothing but vile lies to anyone who is dumb enough to listen?

    All any reasonable person has to do is listen to Rushblo's radio show to know he is a lying snake who is more than happy to obliterate anyone's reputation who is does not agree with him politically. 1993 my ass. He's been a lying blow hard since he first opened his trap and started spreading lies about President Clinton. He still the same liar he has always been. Just a 21st century version now.

    And how do you know what 'all of you' thought of the Wonkette article. I thought it was in poor taste to demean Trig. Did you get that memo? Or do you just paint all 'libruls' with the same broad brush?

    Now THAT'S sad.

    No one deserves credit if credit is not due. Hence the need to "discredit" when necessary. It is not a bad thing.

    Sarah has made parts of her private life public through her books, reality show, public appearances and interviews. Just because SHE has exposed her kids to the public DOES NOT MEAN that the scrutiny of what she presents as family accounts is an attack on her children.

    Let's put it this way. SARAH'S "CREW" (this is about Sarah's account of her pregnancy, NOT about Trig, pretty easy to figure out and keep straight, bots) claims that Sarah can tell ANY IN-CREDIBLE story about her kids and if anyone tries to "set the record straight" (in other words, call it for the BS it is), they are attacking her kids. You guys have been listening to Mama Griz too long. Listen carefully because this is the way it is: SARAH is the one being questioned about HER claims regarding her kids, NOT the kids themselves. Bristol is another story because she is an adult.

    Sarah seems to think that she can parade her family around (we're not talking about going walking around town or going out for dinner) and tell accounts of how she does things and no one will check on it. But when she makes these claims, then she has made them part of her public persona and subject to verification. It's as simple as that. She can't have it both ways, i.e. look but don't touch. If she wanted her private life to remain private, SHE needed to refrain from making it part of her public life and her public image. That's not too hard to figure out. I have to say, she could learn A LOT from Michele Bachmann in this regard. As wacky as Michele is, she never parades around her family or gives accounts of their private life. I just think that Sarah's professional credentials have always been so weak that she has always used her kids and family life as part of her platform and up until 2 years ago it worked. Now people are questioning her authenticity and much of that includes how she has presented her family because, really, she has used them for most of her campaigning since she is so incompetent politically.

    5:05 am says - thinks we would be in a worse place without Sarah Palin?



    Sit down and listen, you idiot. Without Sarah Palin crosshairs, we most probably would not have had the shootings in Arizona where many died including a little girl and Gabby still struggling to get back to the person she was before Sarah put crosshairs on her.

    Don't you ever come on here and pretend that Sarah has done good for this country. She is as corrupt as they come, check out all the unethical things she did in Alaska and more is coming out about her corruptness and total ignorance.

    You taking up for Sarah who has gotten good people fired, intimidated others who feared for their life, and Sarah calling the President of the USA a terrorist.

    Don't you ever even try to justify Sarah's hate; you simply have just shown how utterly stupid and uneducated you are by taking up for someone who should be behind bars.

    Your life must really suck to take up for Sarah.

    Yes, I agree. Limbaugh talks about keeping things in proportion, but doesn't acknowledge the astounding amount of attention and influence that was bestowed upon Palin, completely out of proportion to her qualifications. He probably avoids that fact because it hits too close to home.

    The KKK is widely denounced for its racism by nearly everyone today; Rush Limbaugh's racism, on the other hand, is rarely criticized in any mainstream media outlet.

    In fact, I can't find anyone in the mainstream media who bothered to report on the astonishing fact that the leading conservative talk show host in the country declared that Obama was elected to make white people serve blacks.

    But Limbaugh's shining example of racism was only the beginning of his bigotry. I investigated his claim that black people said, “From now on you all are gonna be waiting on us.” It appears to be completely fabricated.

    Here's the evidence.

    I struggle to remember one article, or one book other than of her own, that has had anything positive to say about the woman. No praise for charity work. No causes to benefit others. The only thing, Rush, that people can find to write about her is that she is vile and self serving. That is who she is. To answer why all is negative is before your eyes. It is her essence.

    5:05am - Help us understand your statement - First, do you read? Here is some of $P' "fantastic" legacy you refer to:

    Gabby Giffords terrible fate for being in the crosshairs of $P

    The town of Wasilla 20 million $ in debt because $P authorized a stadium built on land the city did not own - left a town of 7000 with this debt

    $P new home built with materials identical to the stadium - after $P removed the need for builders in Wasilla to have a building permit

    $P brings pregnant 16? year old daughter on national stage to show the world she had been screwing & got pg - though "abstinence" is the only birth control acceptable. All this after $P & other relatives had "shotgun" weddings.

    SP sent oldest son off to Michigan for a year ('til he was old enough to go in the military) after he destroyed/impaired schoolbuses & Paylin's were unsuccessful in getting trooper in charge of that investigation fired

    Fired trooper's superior when he wouldn't fire the trooper

    $P Spent millions on the pipeline to nowhere - read the specs on it - it ain't agonna happen - ever

    SP's refusal to assist starving, ice bound AK citizens with a lame excuse about how she couldn't justify the expenditures - but flew there with the dimbulb Graham to take a plate of home-made cookies long after the nation had ramped up care package sending & AK citizens tended to delivery & distribution of the treasured food packages.

    Now, 5:05am - what is it you can tell us that $P has done to improve the world and the US citizens? Think hard, dig deep, because there is nothing there that is positive. If you think so then you need help in your thinking far more complex than what we can deliver on this blog.

    Rush so frequently mentions and defends Palin
    ( like Breitbart ) that is seems pretty obvious he has some type of advisory relationship with her.
    Palin will always regurgitate Limbaugh talking points
    as if he had personally coached her.
    I think Limbaugh seriously believes that Palin could win the Republican nomination and then the presidency.
    And in doing so ,
    make him part of her political and unofficial kitchen cabinet.
    Limbaugh thinks Palin is his ticket to finally having a role at the White House.
    Limbaugh has always backed losing candidates.
    Pat Buchanan and Fred Thompson in the past.
    His political prognosticating skill is as accurate
    as his NFL track record.
    It must be so frustrating for Limbaugh .
    He thinks that he wields power , but, he has never demonstrated the ability to affect election outcomes.
    For instance , he predicted that despite dismal polling numbers,
    Christine O'Donnell was going to win.
    If there was a civic version of Viagra , Limbaugh would be a perfect candidate as he's politically impotent.
    Everyone else knows it , a well known Republican consultant recently scoffed that Limbaugh
    couldn't deliver a pizza let alone a vote.
    This drove Limbaugh into the stratosphere .
    The irony is that the anti Palin movement is
    driven by Palin herself.
    Rational people on both sides of the political spectrum are repelled by her continued bizarre , ignorant and crazytown behavior.
    People may listen to Limbaugh , but,
    they don't " listen " to him.
    And the more Limbaugh " cowbells " Palin,
    the lower her numbers sink.
