1. good
i believe that everytime rush opens his mouth it helps our cause

his rabid dittoheads wont ever change, but you know he alienates just a couple more ppl everytime he speaks.

sort of like, whenever bush would talk, the stock market would tank.

Why make Rush and his idiot screener have to go nilly-willy all over DU to find the WE HATE YOUR GUTS PIGBOY type of posts. Pin it at the very top,my guess is more people would send that fucking hypocrite a message of love and compassion.

73. Hmm a pinned note might not be a bad idea
Still, I hope it doesn't keep freepers from wandering around and learning something from other threads.

5. An invasion by people who listen to the logic of a dry drug addict?
Haven't these people ever heard of Jim Jones? Hey Freepers, I heard Rush bought property in a third world nation and is planning a pilgrimage with treats and kool-aid! :evilgrin:

Great to hear it! I'd been thinking that it's been a while since i heard a good "Whatta" Rush Limbaugh joke. Maybe today he'll go a little more in-depth into his weight-loss/hearing loss Oxycontin regimen he has been so diligently following.

One of his freepers challenged me yesterday (to prove that Rush 'lost it' on a liberal caller that called him a hipocrite) Of course I cant say the name and accuse them of being a freeper...but he couldnt stand it when I critiqued Rush.

Has anyone seen the 'Titanic' movie?

18. The "Truth" can withstand scrutiny ...
Spin, lies, and BS can't.

I think it's great that freepers or anyone else come here. If they are willing to read and discuss issues in a sincere manner, maybe their views might change. Remember, these people have been fed a steady diet of spin and propaganda. I think most freepers will just be confrontational, but for some, the ideas here might take hold?

I used to be a hard-core republican religious zealot, intolerant and ignorant. I was brought up that way, and believed what I was told. Thankfully, I grew out of it. Now I think for myself, and am much more left. ;)

23. Hey Rush,did that woman who called you a hypocrite come back today?
She kicked your fucking ass until you finally cut her off yesterday,in fact she bounced you around so much I was surprised she was on as long as she was.

She hit the nail FIRMLY on the head,you are a GD hypocrite! Awwww,no one should call the sitting President a Nazi. How about your little quip about the Clintons and Vince Foster? Oh sure,you came back after break and kind of laughed and joked about it but you know your idiot listeners all to well. Anything coming out of your pie-hole is the truth and nothing but the truth.

Screw you and Bush!!

24. Wanted:
Edited on Tue Jan-06-04 01:25 PM by Cannikin
Transcripts from the last 15 minutes of yesterday's show, and the first 15 of todays...

Oh the contradictions...I could go on for days!!!!!!



In just the last few minutes I've listened to him talk about liberals...

All of our pain and problems are self induced. We creat our own pain.(Nobody made you take more than what was prescribed, Rush)

The Clintons are guilty of being connected to moveon.org because theire EX-web master created it...(Then by the same logic, you ARE a drug pusher because you employed one for years..and not only are you an employer, but also a client!)

Moveon.org trying to pass the buck and evade responsibility for the ad..(Crying conspiracy in court, Rush? You've been in treatment at least twice! Who's fault is it you're on drugs?)

PLEASE let me have the requested transcripts so I can go into the detail that I'd like!

31. This is a conscious effort on their part
to separate "democrat" from "democracy" They have been doing this for about a year now. It's no mistake. They aspire to make democrat a dirty word, and to attack "democratic" is just too close for comfort as it reveals their actual agenda: democracy in name only.

He claimed that it should be called the "DEMOCRAT" party because "There is NOTHING 'democrat-IC" about THEM..."

OK, so when you change your party name to the FASCIST party, we'll think about it.

Oh, and you Ditto-Monkeys, Hi-DEEEEEE-Ho kids!

36. We can learn from everyone.
Even our adversaries. And take my word for it. You NEED to be able to de-spin Rush's propaganda. He has many listeners who hang on his every word. It's important that the truth be filtered out from the BS he spews. Otherwise, this campaign year would be like stepping out onto a battle field not knowing what weapons the enemy has in its arsenal.

You NEED to be able to de-spin Rush's propaganda. He has many listeners who hang on his every word.

It is important to be able to point out the flaws and respond with truth and logic, but in the case of the dittoheads, probably the only appropriate response would be to laugh at them. People who have willingly surrendered whatever intelligence they were born with really don't deserve respect and they wouldn't understand pity.

38. No need to worry about freepers.
The mods will get them immediately.

And if they troll well then they'll post plenty of democratic arguments and then the mods will get them when they come out of the closet. Hey, they've banned disruptors after tens of thousands of posts.

But there are democratic Rush listeners, rubberneckers if you will, and some of them have never heard of DU before. So everytime Rush mentions DU our ranks swell.

Face it, conservatives. You are old, weak, and your arguments hold neither logic or merit. We're young, we're smarter than you, and are numbers keep growing while yours are dying off. No matter how hard you try you can't stop us.

Reward yourself with the Limbaugh Letter! It is written specially by Rush Limbaugh. The letter is filled with easy to read talking points. Rush Limbaugh is famous for marshmallow fluff like rhetoric and the letter is no different. Who can be bothered with facts and accuracy? Certainly not Rush Limbaugh and his listeners. The Limbaugh Letter is ideal for those who like to be provided with things they want to hear. You will also help to make Rush Limbaugh and Premiere Radio Networks even wealthier.
thanks for listening!... Rush Limbaugh

41. Hi Rush fans!
Hi Limbaugh fans. Here is some important information for every American patriot, and I sure wish Rush would cover the facts about BCCI and current politicians in office since the Bank of England is facing a trial in England right now for bilking everyday depositors by hiding BCCI's crimes...sort of like Bush buddy Ken Lay and Enron, but on a global scale.

---
Mohammed Mahmoud Hammoud, an important figure in BCCI, links up with Bush via Charles Hostler starting in the 1950s.

Hammoud, also a good friend of Orrin Hatch, died under odd circumstances, which some federal investigators claim was foul play because Hammoud is on the record as saying a couple of days before his death that "the Americans are dirtier than the Pakistanis" as far as the illegal dealings with BCCI. Hatch, btw, did what he could to impede an investigation into BCCI, and also an investigation into himself and his connections to the same.

But back to Hostler, a major campaign donor to Poppy and Bush's ambassador to Bahrain when that nation awarded the shocking oil concession to Harken, Jr.'s oil company.

The award was shocking because Harken had never drilled outside of the United States, and the Bahrain contract was one of the most coveted in the world.

****The Bahrain contract was signed on January 30, 1990, only TWO WEEKS after a BCCI plea bargain was announced (over drug money).

Junior's Harken company had to be kept afloat by injections of money from his Daddy's powerful friends for the life of its existence, just like all of Bush Jr's failed biz ventures over the course of his life. Bush Jr. sold shares in Harken and failed to declare this fact until six months later. He left Harken shareholders to get shafted while he made off with funds he didn't earn, didn't back...except for the fact that he was Daddy's little criminal.

Did Rush report the facts of the Harken case, or was he too busy filling his listener's heads with bullshit propaganda so they would ignore the real threats to their economic liberty and Constitutional freedoms?

People connected to Harken and the Bahrain oil deal who are tied to BCCI, which, btw, was the largest bank fraud in WORLD HISTORY and which has been tied to funding for terrorism, especially because of bin Laden's brother-in-law, Khalid bin Mahfouz.

1. Jackson Stephens (Stephens, Inc.) Harken's investment banker--arranged financing from Union Bank of Switzerland, BCCI's Swiss banking partner.

2. Sheik Khalifa bin-Salman al-Khalifa, Bahrain's prime minister and BCCI stockholder.

3. Sheikh Abdullah Taha Baksh, shareholder in Harken, investment partner of Ghaith Pharon, BCCI's most important front man. Th Sheikh's principal banker is Khalid bin Mahfouz.

4. Charles Hostler, long-time associate of BCCI front man Mohammed Hammoud. Hostler was connected to both the CIA and its predecessor, the OSS.)

About this moment, Poppy's White House spokeman, Marlin Fitzwater, said, "There is no conflict of interest, or even the appearance of a conflict of interest, in these business arrangements." ----From False Profits, various pp, including 370.

Maybe there were some conflicts of interests, and are, since Khalid bin Mahfouz runs Delta Oil, which, as Fortune magazine reported, was in biz with the head of the 9-11 investigative committee until three weeks before Kean's appointment.

Saudi bander and bin Laden brother-in-law, Khalid bin Mahfouz was also an 11% shareholder in Bush's failed Harken energy company, as well. As of 1999, bin Mahfouz was listed as a financier of terrorism because of the two American embassy bombings attributed to bin Laden.

As more than one investigative reporter has noted, Bush allowed House of Saud family members to fly out of America when all other planes were grounded, no doubt protecting Jr's financial interests, and also impeding any questioning of people on board those planes who were suspected of ties to Al Qaeda. You can read about it in the October Vanity Fair, or via Seymour Hersh in the New Yorker....both liberal rags, to be sure...but isn't it strange that you can't get this same truth from Rush?

Why did Bush impede an investigation into 9-11 for more than a year, and then only budget 4 million, while Republicans in Congress were willing to spend 70 million investigating a blow job? Which is more important-- if a prez lied about a blow job, or if a prez lied about knowledge of a terrorist attack on this nation?

btw, this doesn't get mentioned by Bush, naturally, because it would make him look so bad, but does Rush ever mention the way that America and international organizations were able to foil the terrorist millennium attack plot? --is Rush too busy claiming "dereliction of duty" to note which sitting president stopped an attack?

Maybe Bush was too busy rigging energy policy to favor Enron and screw the American people to care about what his family friend, bin Laden, was doing. After all, it gave him and his buddies the catalyst they needed to invade Iraq, which, everyone with one ounce of common sense and integrity knows, was NOT connected to Al Qaeda.

Why is Bush distracting man power from the hunt for terrorists to launch a war in Iraq? Why did he lie before Congress to justify this war? Don't give me the b.s. that it was because Saddam was a tyrant.

Ask Rush if Bush has buddied up to the leader of Uzbekistan now...(he has)...and ask Rush why he doesn't mention that this leader boils his opponents to death?

p.s. - Rush, I honestly hope you are successful in your attempt to overcome your addiction to oxycontin. Even though you got your drugs through the doc, which is how rich people usually deal with their addictions, it's an addiction all the same, and, as you surely know, it's health problem...just like poor people with addiction problems.

Just like Noelle Bush and her crack cocaine habit, too. That she only got ten days for a third crack cocaine offense...does that mean that Jeb realizes it's a health issue, or is it once again an issue of "noblesse oblige" --do the Bush's think their shit doesn't stink because they have enough money to spray air freshener all over the radio waves?

49. We could offer up several good places to look at , but do you think.....
they will read any of it? I think the original Nazi's were probably the same way from what I have read. They have that preordained spite gene in them, the only time they start to get a clue is when several members of their own family get killed or murdered. But even that is not a lock if you know anything about Hitler or Stalins life story (at least my take)

I will throw this one on in, maybe somebody will accidentally click onto it

It's time for another Bush/Nazis thread

56. Which opinion were you disallowed?
Just curious.

I haven't seen any evidence of wide spread suppression of anyone's freedoms here.

55. Dittohead Encounter...A Soul Saved!
Last weekend I was chatting with a kindly, 50'ish lady. We were at a local school function and somehow the name Hillary Clinton was dropped in and this lady launched into a tirade of how evil incarnate the Junior Senator from New York was.

In the past, I'd sit back and let the Wingnuts rant...but now, I confront...or in this case, play 50 questions. This lady's rant had "Rushbo" written all over it...even more of a reason to start debunking lies that many people, including this lady, consider truth since they haven't heard another side.

First I stated that if Hillary Clinton was so evil, why was she voted the most admired woman in the country? I knew that would bounce off...so I went a step further, I said how I can't wait when she's elected the first woman President. This woman looked mortified...I smiled like the Cheshire Cat. She said it couldn't happen. So I asked why?

She started into the dittohead garbage of all they put poor Chelsea through by staying with the "creap". I asked her, a divorced woman who had to raise several children on her own when her ex walked on her (she gladly tells anyone who asks that), how losing a parent was on the kids and she started slowing her rant...finally. Then I mentioned that there are a lot of children facing bleak times right now since there isn't money for education or they could be shipped off to fight a dead-end war (and even the Freeper won't argue that one now...and all this lady cared about was someone's libido and the relationship of two married people. My next question was how would she have felt if her life were invaded the way the Clintons were...to completely embarass and destroy them. She couldn't answer...damn straight she couldn't.

Now that I had her attention, I asked my favorite question I strongly suggest to ALL DU'ers who confront even moderate Repugnicans..."Is the country better off than it was 4 years ago". First, this lady did the knee-jerk "of course it is". I followed with the simple "how"? Are you safer to travel today than in 1999? Are American interests around the world safer? Are we closer to a more peaceful world? She went to the economy (totally avoiding Iraq...seems they don't like to discuss that one)...a slam dunk...as she herself just went through a job change...I simply asked "is your job situation better now than it was in 1999?" She moved on of how "moral" this regime was...there was the opening to question about this invasion and the many scandals and how the media is covering things.

I asked her how she knew this was a more moral government. She said that's what she heard (buzz: Rushbo, O'Reilly & Ophra)...how the GOOP represented America (Country muzak) and how liberals (never used the word Democrat) are for promescuity (gays, abortion). I asked her if she knew how many people are hungry tonight in this country...live in fear of either physical or economic ruin and how polarized this country is. I asked how her manchild (of course we used the name...Mr. Bush) had united the country as promised...then clicked down a bunch of promises turned lies...nation building, no child left behind and so on. Then I asked, "how moral are people who lie about the best interests of our children"...at that point a crowd had gathered around us.

It was time to strike while the iron was hot. First, I smiled and complimented her on how I appreciated her interest in events (yes, I was laughing inside) and how she needs to QUESTION what's going on. No, I'm not expecting miracles, but the least one can do is challenge someone who thinks they're informed to expand their knowledge base. I then said to her...take a closer look at things...see how you've been treated (not duped) and how another four years of what's going on will affect you and your future. There was a definite hush all around. I smiled and then asked about how everyone's New Years was.

A lot of Dittoheads are conflicted...they know their "leader" has been winged...not by the "liberals", but by his own avarice, but they are in a denial as refuting the fat tub of protoplasm means going back on years of unchallenged lies and fabrications. This won't be easy and take long...and not all Freepers and Dittoheads are salvagable...honestly, who'd want those waste of neurons? But there are a large number who just need the push in another direction...and either hope they see the light, or at least get so frustrated they just stay home next November.

61. Wow. What a great response!
I can never think that well when I encounter someone like this. I just get so angry and disgusted at their ignorance and selfishness that I can't think of a single thing to counter whatever talking point they are harping on at the moment.

63. Script / Outline Needed
Very nice response. I too feel that I could be better prepared when I get into these discussions. I wish there was a a primer that I could quickly study before heading into these discussions, that reminds me, for instance,

a) Top 5 Lies of the * Administration, the Facts, and the impact of the lies.
b) Top 5 Freeper Rants and Effective Responses
c) Top 5 Critical Economic Changes since 1/20/2000

If I had that, at the ready, I'd feel much better before going into these discussions.

57. It's been said
"If you're not pissing somebody off, you're not doing anything important."

It warms my heart that the Limpburger feels the need to "counter" our position.

65. You mean convicted drug user Rush Limbaugh?
That drugged up looney?
Yeah. He says a lot of fucked up shit.

"Whats that Rush? The spiders are crawling on your skin? You can tell that the neighbors dog wants to steal your soul? The evil Saddam loving liberals are going to destroy all that good Americans treasure? That's great, Rush. Maybe its time you got yourself back into reahab..."

68. Convicted, alleged - unimportant really
What matters is that if snakes help control the rats, it's good to shove a few wrigglers their way.

High ground, my ass. Not with that vermin.

74. Good point. Most likely he will never be convicted.
Apparently if you are a republican, you actually do have to kill someone to get convicted of any crimes.

70. If I woke up as Rush Limbaugh one day I'd want pain killers too!
The pain of being Lush Limpballs would be too much to bear.

Oh, poor little closested gay Rush.

Being Rush Limbaugh however is an unbearable condition.

75. How dare you compare him to gays....
Edited on Tue Jan-06-04 07:08 PM by Cannikin
We have much more class, much better dressers, dont usually play golf or watch football (I only watch sports without bulky pads in the way of the view).

I think he could never get his fathers approval. I always imagine his homelife like an nightmare episode of 'All in the Family'. His dad screaming at the tv (like Rush does on the radio) about how he'd do things if he was in charge. If Rush showed any emotion he'd be put down for being a sissy. His mother was probably a stay at home woman who cooked and cleaned with no help from them. Rush probably never did anything right in his fathers eyes.....and now, we get to enjoy the product of a warped childhood. No wonder he fell prey to drug abuse. It was in the cards for him his whole life.


When it comes down to it, I dont hate him. I pity him. A sad, empty, spiritless man.

77. An old gay proverb....Dont hate. RETALIATE!
Or was it mast...anyway...We're not crazy. The word 'hate' is used very loosely I agree.

The best thing we could do with all of this energy is arm ourselves with good arguments and keep calling his, and other talk shows.

Its been happening more and more lately. And nothing has given me more pleasure than hearing Rush lose his temper at callers with good opposing views that he cant honestly argue.

I hear Hannity got several doses today too. He seems like easier prey.

80. we have a lot of compassion
but Rush used his fair share up when he put his party above his country; now he apparently puts his drug use above his so-called principles. Does he sound even one bit humble after his junkie experience? No, he is still blaming everyone for his problems and trying to enlist his millions of dittoheads to crash and bash our litte DU site. LIMBAUGH CAN F*** HIMSELF.

79. I don't hate RW'ers
I just think it's funny they need to be told what to think...by a drug addict no less.

If they want serious hate, they should spend some time grazing with Savage Weiner's happy little flock.

Those folks are two tacos short of a combo plate.

81. honestly, I get it...
he doesn't like to use the work "democratic" when referring to the democratic party...about what a 5 year old would do but fine...

But seriously, Rush...this site is fucking called the "democratic underground"...that is the fucking NAME of the site...the name isn't democrat underground...it actually is democratic underground...

I swear I have to pinch myself to realize that I'm not playing in kindergarten when I listen to these people...grow up!
