I listen to Rush Limbaugh. Not because I like it; but I want to know what he’s saying because bootlicking ditto-heads parrot him religiously. Now, most people have seen or heard Rush calling former Senator John Edwards “The Breck Girl”, and remember that Rush called a teenage girl, Chelsea Clinton, “the White House Dog.” Women that believe in equality before the law are “femi-nazi’s.” The list goes on. Rush Limbaugh likes to slur and smear people – it’s his shtick. What bothers me most about Rush Limbaugh is not what he says; it’s that people actually take him seriously.
If you think about it, how can a guy who dodged Vietnam because of a pimple on his backside be taken seriously as a war promoter? How can he be taken seriously, when at first Rush proclaimed that anyone abusing prescription drugs illegally should be locked up, until he illegally abused prescription drugs and got off on a technicality? How can a guy that’s been divorced THREE TIMES, and celebrated his third divorce by loading up with Viagra and heading to an island infamous for is prostitution, be seen as a paragon of “Family Values”?
I guess to some, Rush is an expert on families, because he’s had three of them. Well, three wives, but no kids. Guess that makes him an expert on education, to some.
As demonstrated above, Rush Limbaugh loves to call names. So on a discussion board I’ve been posting at for years, I respond to his bootlicking ditto-heads by calling Rush “El Druggo”, in reference to his hillbilly-heroin habit. Well, “The Maja Viagra” too, due to how he “celebrated” his third divorce. “Drug Limpstick”, in reference to both. Oh, and “The Round Mound Of Hate Sound”, due to the name calling he does.
And to no surprise, the bootlickers on that site go ballistic, accusing the ol’ TwoPutter of bein’ a name caller. The point they miss, is they love it when El Druggo calls names, but hate it when what they do, is done to them. Kinda like bullies, don’t you think? Which gets me to what The Maja Viagra said, just a couple of months ago.
Last November 19th, Rush Limbaugh was talking about the November ’08 election, and he proclaimed (and I quote):
Yes, Rush Limbaugh is proclaiming he’s excited that dirty politics are in the future. Meanwhile, here in Eden Prairie, republiCon Party LEADERSHIP practicing dirty politics has never really stopped. We can look back and see when the local republiCon website was distorting letters to the editor on their website, or when candidate Phil Young tried to claim the local republiCon party wouldn’t be helping him, even when it was. And, of course, there was that dirty rumor they started about me being an alcoholic. When someone has the audacity to point out the emperor (local GOP leadership) has no clothes, those folks get uglier than normal.
Recently, Mayor Phil Young tried to claim that the former city council, comprised of 5 republicans, was “left of center.” Today, the local republiCon website says, and I quote:
Now, most reasonable people would assume that an all-Republican council that earned an AAA rating from Moody’s, could be reasonably called “fiscally responsible.”
Folks, I have to tell you: the local republiCon party leadership, and its local elected officials, cannot be called “reasonable.” These people are the epitome of intolerance, and the epitome of why GOP now stands for GreedOverPriniciples. Those Republicans that don’t bootlick to their dictates, are called RINO and worse. It’s a mighty small tent these people own, and if you don’t agree with it, you’re not welcome.
But, no worries, for the local republiCon Party Leadership: – Rush Limbaugh is excited, and will help keep it interesting.

OK, John Forbes Kerry shouldn’t have asked it, the way he did. That was dumb. Very dumb. But then again, I’m an old soldier, and that kind of salty language doesn’t bother me in the least. If salty language bothers you, dear gentle reader, stop reading, right now.
Kerry’s question was a good question; one that needed to be asked even though it should have been worded differently.
What am I referring to? John Forbes Kerry’s interview with Rolling Stone magazine, where – referring to Boy Blunder’s handling of The War Of Choice – John Forbes Kerry asked, and I quote:
- “Did I expect George Bush to f— it up as badly as he did? I don’t think anybody did.”
And that IS true; who expected that Boy Blunder would create “The Mother Of All FUBARs?”
What John Forbes Kerry also didn’t expect was how the republiCon’s would respond.
After all, Boy Blunder repeatedly dropped the F-Bomb in his 1999 interview in Talk Magazine. Would Republicans rip Kerry for using the same word Bush did, just a couple of years earlier?
Of course not. “Republicans” wouldn’t do that; that would be “hypocritical.” But, today, GOP stands for GreedOverPrinciples, “Republicans” have been kicked out, and “republiCons” are the inmates running the asylum.
So when Kerry dropped the F-Bomb, republiCons went ballistic.
Drug Limpstick and the rest of the EchoChamberRadio gang jumped all over it; El Druggo started callin’ him “John F-ing Kerry.”
Andy Card, Boy Blunder’s Chief of Staff, was all over it, too. As reported on FauxNews.com:
- “That’s beneath John Kerry,” the president’s chief of staff, Andrew Card, said in a televised interview.
“I’m very disappointed that he would use that kind of language,” Card said. “I’m hoping that he’s apologizing at least to himself, because that’s not the John Kerry that I know.”
WOW! In 1999, Boy blunder repeatedly drops the F-Bomb, no problemo. In late 2003, John F’ing Kerry drops the F-Bomb, BIG DEAL. With me so far?
In his duties as Vice President, Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney presides over the Senate. And one day, a few months after the republiCons jumped all over John F’ing Kerry, Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney was over at the senate. Now, two things notable happened at the Senate on this day: the Senate passed “The Defense Of Decency Act” which addressed indecent language on TV, and VPOTUS Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney told Senator Patrick Leahy, in the Senate:
“Hey! Senator!! Go F*** yourself!!!”
Or, as I like to say, to point out the blatant hypocrisy of republiCons:
“Hey! Senator!! Go (cheney) yourself!!!”
Asked about it on FauxNews, in addition saying it was “appropriate”, and that he “felt better afterwards”, Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney said, and here’s the whole quote:
- CHENEY: Well, I think that a lot of my colleagues felt that what I had said badly needed to be said, that it was long overdue.
In that interview with Neil Cavuto, Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney also weasels out of breaking a rule by dropping the “(cheney)-bomb” in the senate, on the technicality that the senate wasn’t in session. Other places covered for Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney by noting that, technically, Cheney’s a member of the administration, so rules governing senator’s behavior in the senate, don’t apply to Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney. Hmmm…. republiCons citing “technicalities” to cover THEIR guy….who’da thunk?
Now, let’s revisit what Andy Card said when John F’ing Kerry dropped the “(cheney)-bomb”:
- “That’s beneath John Kerry,” the president’s chief of staff, Andrew Card, said in a televised interview.
“I’m very disappointed that he would use that kind of language,” Card said. “I’m hoping that he’s apologizing at least to himself, because that’s not the John Kerry that I know.”
What was the official White House line on Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney droppin’ the “(cheney)-bomb”?
Zip. Nada. Crickets.
But, here’s what Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney’s spokesman said:
- “Reserving the right to revise and extend my remarks, that doesn’t sound like language the vice president would use, but there was a frank exchange of views.”
republiCons count on people not remembering history, let alone recent events. IMNSHO, here’s why: “Those that forget the lessons of history, tend to vote republiCon.”
And it appears to me that our friends over at Minnesota Democrats Exposed know that, live that, and breathe that. Lately, they like to rip Al Franken as havin’ a potty-mouth, or some such silly shit like that.
You think the boys at MDE would criticize Dick (cheney)in’ Cheney for droppin’ the “(cheney)-bomb”? Or criticize Boy Blunder for when he did? Or, Wolfie, who went “(cheney)-bomb” ballistic this last spring?
Not on your (cheney)in’ life.
Which, of course, only goes to show, once again, why GOP now stands for GreedOverPrinciples, and in the GOP party, the inmates are running the asylum.
They’re in an uproar ’cause someone said Norm “Smokescreen” Coleman, R=Lapdog, lacks “balls.”
Gentle reader, let me tell you that from this veteran’s perspective, Norm “Smokescreen” Coleman, R=Lapdog, not only lacks balls; he lacks guts, he lacks spine, and he lacks honor.
