Limbaugh: Kennedy Will Be Dead By The Time Health Care Bill Passes

[Top Cat]

On his radio show Friday, Rush Limbaugh suggested that Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) would be dead by the time health care reform legislation passes. "Before it's all over, it'll be called the Ted Kennedy memorial health care bill," the talk show host says. He says President Obama has moved on to health care because he can't solve the economic crisis. Listen, via Media Matters:

I know that Rush is a son-of-bitch but he has gone to far with his hate. We have to shut his ASS up now.

[Imperialism Inc.]

1. A nasty thing to say to be sure but that's OK

As the official head of the GOP now that kind of talk reflects poorly on the whole party.

[firedupdem]

4. You're right. Any MSM person worth their weight will remind them

that their leader is saying some pretty nasty stuff. I won't hold my breath waiting for that to happen.

[Cha]

12. Yes, the rushafication of the gop

just made it a whole lot nastier.

[firedupdem]

2. OMG! This ass is really clowning! n/t

[Wetzelbill]

3. the face of the GOP

not pretty.

[jobycom]

5. Possibly. But he will be beloved and remembered well by history.

Unlike Limbaugh.

[LakeSamish706]

6. Well as much as I would like to shut him down, we are not in control of that....

The FCC needs to come up with something that will get this POS off the air.

[Top Cat]

8. I agree.... Rush is like Jim Jones brainwashing his followers and this should be illegal

I know this cannot be done but he must be stop. What about a gag order for Rush because of the anger and hate that he is fueling? Just a thought

[RoccoR5955]

14. Not a gag order, just people with tar and feathers for him.

A good 'ol lynch mob!
He surely deserves it.
Every time I see that shot of him bouncing around at CPAC last week, I only wish he was bouncing up and down with a rope around his neck, from a tree!

[alexandria]

9. I guess you do not believe in the first amendment?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment


The First Amendment to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights that expressly prohibits the United States Congress from making laws "respecting an establishment of religion" or that prohibit the free exercise of religion, laws that infringe the freedom of speech, infringe the freedom of the press, limit the right to peaceably assemble, or limit the right to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

[Top Cat]

13. Yeah... I know but there are always loopholes maybe we can find one

[alexandria]

19. Loophole? Everyone has the right to free speech.

It is what made America great.
If you disagree with the person do not listen to them

[LakeSamish706]

27. Welcome to DU by the way (sort of)... I'm guessing by your posts that you are...

a Rush fan, and so be it..... Yep, you are correct, there is free speech in this country and I do believe in it. My bigger problem is if/when this POS breaks any laws, I want him held accountable NOW... Not like the Bush Administration that he has stood up for over the past 8 years....

[olegramps]

51. I believe in the First Amendment, but do you believe in provocative speech?

Rush Limbaugh is a provacateur that is attempting to incite people to the point of assassinating President Obama. He would consider it his tour de force.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

57. Be easy, it's all hyperbole. Nobody wants to censor your friends. -nt

[jefferson_dem]

20. Nah...Let him spew his vile shit.

The more he talks, the more he reflects poorly on the party he leads, and the more his minions will be forced to either condemn him or cozy up closer.

Besides, I'm not keen on governmental regulation of media content, however well intentioned, and whatever the regime in power.

[NYC_SKP]

7. Maybe, just maybe, Rush will go first.

The asshole.

[Top Cat]

10. music to my ears the Bast--d

I've been listening to his racist show this week to get a better understanding of just how sick he is.

[RoccoR5955]

11. That rat should be dead... NOW!!!

It's high time that he was put out of our misery.
Can someone just go and see that the fat freak has a heart attack or something?
It would do the WORLD a whole lot of good!

[Danger Mouse]

17. He's doing plenty of good right now. He's killing the Repukes.

He's so egocentric, he'd rather take the whole party down with him than let the Republicans disown him. They're terrified of him.
I say let him.

[Danger Mouse]

15. Rush Limbaugh is both the face AND the ass of the Republican Party.

Not that anybody can tell the difference.

[Top Cat]

16. agreed

[Pab Sungenis]

18. One way to solve that pronlem

Pass it quickly, before he passes. Like next week. Kucinich already has the best bill, just introduce and pass it.

[TXDemGal]

21. It may be true that TK will have passed by the time the health care

legislation becomes law. TK's death, though, unlike Limbaugh's eventual death, will be grieved by MANY.

[Top Cat]

22. This is Ted's baby and I think he will see it through.

The lion still has some roar left.....

[Ex Lurker]

23. Honestly, he's lasted longer than I expected

survival times for what he has are measured in months, sometimes weeks.

[Top Cat]

26. I know but his job here is not done until his project is passed...

Ted has been a big campaigner for the healthcare bill and when it is a done deal he can rest in peace. This will be his major accomplishment to the millions of American people that he has fought for.

[Arkana]

24. Go crawl back into Satan's asshole, Rush.

No one but your loyal brainless listeners and that fringe party called the GOP cares what you think anymore.

[Raine1967]

25. you know... Rush has admitted something...

He admitted that The legislation WILL pass.

Somehow-- I think The Lion is smiling about that.

[backscatter712]

28. This is why Rush should be front-and-center as Dear Leader of the Republicans.

That way, everyone sees Boss Limbaugh for the asshole that he is, and the GOP gets pilloried as well for following him.

[windbreeze]

29. Karma is a nasty bitch....

shame on him for saying this...n/t

[zulchzulu]

30. Limbaugh is a year away or less from having a myocardial infarction event

I bet he's taking a dirt nap by 2010 by the way he looks. Hell's waiting...

[Top Cat]

34. Rush looks like he maybe dipping again

[old mark]

31. But the Republicans really LOVE people - they even said so!

I have absolutely no good feelings for republicans of any degree, type or kind. We need to start now to get candidates in position to get even more republicans out of office in 2010, and certainly more in 2012.

I'd love to see them reduced to the level of the miniscule third and fourth parties we have now. I want to see them completely crushed.

Well, I feel better now!


mark

[Zavulon]

32. No, we don't.

Let him keep it up. Such psychotic blather helps our side. His alleged twenty million listeners would never vote for our guys anyway, but with words like that it's no wonder he hasn't been able to claim an increase in his audience. He claims the same twent million now that I heard him claim during the Clinton years.

Words like "We have to shut his ASS up now" scare the shit out of me. We don't have to do anything of the kind, and we shouldn't. Let him rant, and let undecideds keep hearing that shit and come to our side. We won't gain new voters by "shutting his ASS up now," we'll lose them.

[DailyGrind51]

33. Not if obesity or drug addiction gets you first, Rush!

[marshall]

35. Isn't Kennedy getting better?

I thought he was at the SOTU, and I know he's attended some of the voting.

[BamaTideFan83]

38. Yes . . .

You are correct. He has made many public appearances. His recovery has been astounding. He may be our nominee in 2016.

[marshall]

40. That would really show 'em!

With age comes wiscom.

[Top Cat]

42. I thought he was improving he's lost some weight which is good i'm sure.

[JayMusgrove]

36. I would rather it be Limpballs that is dead, and

I would rather that we pass a health care plan, next month!

I'm not advocating murder or anything, just wishing maybe Rush has a coronary heart attack when it passes and the attack is fatal.

I think America has had enough of Rush, and needs to move on.

[Jennicut]

37. Disgusting and morally bankrupt = the leader of the Repuke party

[chrisa]

39. Rush = A little kid crying for attention.

The more he fades into the oblivion, the more he slams his head into the wall, or holds his breath. It's the same with Ann Coulter. They know how to get the attention.

[Top Cat]

43. yeah negative attention ...

[mattclearing]

41. That's okay. When Rush dies, there won't be any memorial. Just celebration. n/t

[AndrewP]

44. With any luck Limbaugh will have a heart attack and be dead by the time Health Care bill passes

yeah.....i said it.

Hopefully the viagra and cheeseburgers finally get to him.

[Top Cat]

46. wow

[fortyfeetunder]

45. Yo Rush, regardless what happens to Kennedy

you will still be a stupid #$*#&()&$....

[jenmito]

47. Alex Witt saw nothing really wrong with it, saying he's just saying what's most likely true...

she said this on MSNBC today. I forget who she was talking with, but the guy agreed with her! She said MAYBE it wasn't said with the right tone, but he's really just telling the truth.

[Top Cat]

48. To hell with both of them burying a man before he's gone

Teddy may out live both of them only god knows when Ted's time is up.

[jenmito]

49. I know! I couldn't BELIEVE she seemed ok with those ugly comments!

:wtf:

[MrsMatt]

50. Stay classy Rush - n/t

[fed_up_mother]

52. I wanted single payer "Kennedy Care"

[kiranon]

53. and Rush care for Republicans who are dittoheads.

[Geek_Girl]

54. To many people listen to this guy

The most disturbing thing about Rush is there are so many stupid people in this country that actually agree with him.

[iamthebandfanman]

55. poor rush, so jealous...

heres a guy whos beaten addiction and accomplished 30x more than rush will be able to in the short life he has left(that oxy is gonna catch up to him sometime) and he has the nerve to stick out his pompous ass and make a comment...

please...

jealousy is a hellava emotion, aint it rush?

[Sheltiemama]

56. Rush is a heart attack waiting to happen.

I wouldn't be totally shocked if Teddy outlives him.

[Ilsa]

58. Too bad if Rush isn't gone first. nt
