rush incites the ignorant
Subject: Limbaugh on "Liberal Hate Speech" 1988 Quote

"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling
chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and
why? Because Saddam 'allegedly' gassed a few Kurds in his own country.
Mark my words. All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a 'war
criminal' or 'committing crimes against humanity' is the same old
thing. LIBERAL HATE SPEECH! And speaking of poison gas . . . I SAY WE
ROUND UP ALL THE DRUG ADDICTS AND GAS THEM." - Rush (oxycontin)
Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988


if anyone can get this to airamerica or like minded people to use go for it

2. It is a fake...
It came from a satirical Boondocks comic strip that went back in time.

8. No he didn't say that.
As I posted above, it is satire. A quote that originated from the comic stip "Boondocks" which featured right wing political punditry from the past.

11. True!
But given the fact that he espouses crap all day every day, there's plenty of other things to nail him with!

12. How have we not gotten rid of him already? His teflon has to
be wearing thin in spots by now.

13. What I don't understand...
Edited on Fri Jan-14-05 08:26 PM by Luminous Animal
Is why he hasn't been brought to trial yet. I'm all for rehap and I don't think he should serve time, but I don't want to miss the spectacle of him blubbering before the court on how addiction is a disease.

15. I would suggest you use it in multiple letters to the editor
Also, Franken has a regular feature with a resident dittohead...a calm but exceedingly stupid rationalizer. I'm sure he would LOVE to use this quote.

16. Lowerdy
Doesn't anyone read through these posts?!

The quote is a fake! It originates from a Boondocks comic strip which featured "historical" (i.e., fake) quotes from the right wing punditry!
