Rush Limbaugh calls Democratic rock singers "dope fiends!"
Edited on Thu Aug-05-04 03:47 PM by NightTrain
A caller to Randi Rhodes who can somehow stomach Oxyrush said that today, Limpballs railed against the upcoming tour by several rock bands in support of Kerry and the Democratic Party. He had the nerve to call people like Bruce Springsteen and the Dixie Chicks "drug-addled dope fiends!"

Can you fucking believe that? There is no depth to which those fucking right-wingers won't stoop.

"Big fat idiot," indeed!

31. Need to sample it and then
play it back so it says: "dope fiends, do-do-dope fiends". Put it in a song with some other b*shisms. Nice Disco beat, you get the idea. Wish I had time.

5. Well, Rush would know about being a drug-addled addict
so at least he's talking about something he understands for a change.

As for his accusations, I've never heard that Springsteen is a doper and as far as I can tell he doesn't even drink anymore. Probably Rush is just jealous.

30. Probably oxyrush is just lyin' cause it's another day!
This is just one more example of what the ditto heads listen to each day to get their daily brainwashing. And I take it personally because I had a verbal scrabble with two of them, yesterday!

17. Actually, as Randi pointed out...
...it's NOT the pot calling the kettle black because Springsteen does not take drugs. She also pointed out that the Boss has been married to the same woman for decades and that they've raised their kids in a perfectly stable home environment.

Randi's conclusion was that Limbaugh is a hypocrite. Sounds about right!

14. Incredible
What's utterly incredible is that he could even utter those words, when it is exactly what he (by his OWN ADMISSION) is!

So, don't listen to those DOPE ADDICTS, but listen to THIS DOPE ADDICT. Un-fucking believable. This just goes to show the warped reality these fucks live in.

16. Rush is relying on the very short attention spans...
that most of his listeners have - about 12 seconds worth according to the lastest poll. Rush can reguritate the same old swill day after day and it's like juicy new news for them. I tell ya, there's something in the water that dems aren't quite as susceptable to...

32. And Brit Hume thinks Kerry looks too sad. I see a pattern here.
Edited on Thu Aug-05-04 04:05 PM by Cat Atomic
I'm waiting for Ann Coulter to say Kerry has a huge Adam's apple. Maybe Hannity can say Edward's has a whiny, nasal voice.

That'd lock it up.

35. and the dumbest part
speingsteen and the dixie chicks aren't exactly regarded as drug abusers

if he were talking about ozzy osbourne, it might make a little bit of sense. it would still be hypocritical, but wouldn't sound nearly as dumb

I bet his 3rd wife cleans him out, I can only imagine the shit she knows about him. A note about The Boss. A few of you guys said "it takes one to know one". Being a casual drug user I have to say if you listen to the lyrics to Springsteens, Tenth Avenue Freezout or Blinded By The Light you might think differently on whether the Boss is or was a drug user ;)

48. What kind of justice do we have in this country.
Chong paid his fine, did time, and is OUT.
One group gets the COPS treatment, and the other gets a pat on the back.
Where are the prosecutors? This guy was caught red handed.
