I'll bet he is as happy as a lark that DU let these guys post here today.

71 people were shot in Colorado, 12 were killed, and all these guys can say is that Rush is innocent.

Incredible.

He's on the phone to his masters, trying to figure out Warpy Jul 2012 #2
More than likely Rush is on the phone trying to apologize to Mitt for causing this shooting. Major Hogwash Jul 2012 #56
Please. He took a three day weekend. He's in an Oxy induced coma by now. nt DCKit Jul 2012 #78
