Rush Limbaugh

I’m not certain which is worse: this oxycotin-gobbling, bloated, arrogant, self-important, ubber-wealthy, gasbag of the airwaves that passes for a human being or his mindless, drooling, knuckle-dragging, imbecile audience that hangs on his every lying, twisted word. Apparently his audience is numerous, a frightening condemnation of American intelligence, as evidenced by the sponsors that are lined-up checks in hand to pander to his Kool-Aid guzzling listeners who would eat steaming bovine droppings if he told them to do so and gladly pay his sponsors for the privilege.

In evidence of this observation I was leaving the doctor’s office one day and, as I strode through the parking lot to my motor, I saw an elderly gent of perhaps eighty, no doubt having left his wife to get the bad news alone, sitting in his Buick, windows down, as he listened to “Rush to the Druggist” at about 800 or more decibels (those Buicks have some serious speakers from the factory). What was eerie and damned frightening was that this old fellow was staring at the hedges before him, mouth agape, with a vacant expression. It were as if he were totally mesmerized and that is no exaggeration. I stood in disbelief ready to perform CPR and call for paramedics if he didn’t blink within the next three minutes. However I was certain he was alright as he wiped some spittle from his lower lip so I straddled my motor and rode off.

What was more frightening was that when I did the math of how many there were just like this old gent who not only listen to America’s Joseph Goebbels but follow his every command as evidenced by those who voted for “I Got Mine So Screw You Shipmate McCain” and “Caribou Barbie” I absolutely shuddered. There are millions of normal appearing people who are functionally developmentally disabled that have voted for those in the pockets of the very people who would make them homeless and destitute in the blink of an eye for a nickel of profit.

But when old “Let This Idiot Do YOUR Thinking For You Limbaugh” stated on air that he wants Obama to fail it was most telling of how he bows before his masters and leads his lemmings to their demise for his fat paydays. This pompous pile of lard would sell his soul (if he had one) as he leads his blind, deaf and brain-dead faithful to work against their own interests because if Obama fails EVERYONE fails. Jobless, homeless, destitute people are not consumers but Rush and his pals are in it for the fast buck now and don’t care who gets hurt in the process. He and his sponsors will be living fat and large as millions of his listeners eat dog food under a bridge in a blizzard.

Then again what could one expect from a cowardly, souless, draft/service evading, drug addicted, pompous piece of excrement who cares nothing for anyone but himself and his owners. If Limbaugh were in a lifeboat should the ship on which one of his “Rush to Excellence” cruises takes place sinks he would hit the drowning with an oar to keep them from pulling themselves aboard so he could have all of the rations to himself.

Obama's Citizens' Briefing Book

Need a laugh? Then check out the Citizens' Briefing Book at change.gov.

Damned few post anything addressing the subject of the individual threads but rather want to spout their self-centered and all too frequently hair-brained rants all over the board. If the thread is about oranges then rest assured people will post about legalizing pot as that what seems to be on their minds (or clouding them). One knucklehead even offered a free donut to anyone who could guess the number of donuts he could fit on his "pole". Add in the angry, bitter right-wing hacks posting and voting down anything with which they don't agree and it gets funnier if not more pathetic (Sarah? Is that YOU?). And, of course, the most popular idea is making the US the "greenest nation on the planet", obviously posted and supported by those who plan to ride their unicorns over the rainbow bridge to the beach campfire to make smores with Smurfs. Apparently they don't live in the "real" world but are in college or high school and have copius free time to post idealistic dribble between bong hits and classes while sucking on the teats of both mommy and daddy.

Meanwhile, in the "real" world, people are losing their savings, jobs and homes. Thousands of disabled veterans are being tossed into the streets to fend for themselves. Banks are being emboldened with cash infussions from our tax dollars to cover their bad bets that resulted from their sheer, unregulated greed so that they can continue business as usual - which is screwing people at every opportunity. While the rich get richer the average American is tossed under the economic bus. Institutions are "too big to fail" yet we are "too small to succeed". None-the-less smoking dope, being green and mass transit are the "most popular" issues on the Citizens' Briefing Book.

Whatever may reach PE Obama from the Citizens' Briefing Book will appear as if it were written by a bunch of stoned imbeciles who deserve to be abused and ripped-off by government as usual. The PE would be better off if he were to poll all of his donors that gave $100 or less rather than have his staff wade through this endless stupidity. Then, perhaps, he'd know what his thinking supporters actually have to say other than "we want free twinkies 'cuz we're stoned". Unfortunately the only ones who donated that got "face time" with the PE are the select few that donated $100K or more. The rest of us are just voices in the wilderness to never be heard because we can't write out checks with a lot of zeroes before the decimal point.

For the record I voted for Obama being sick of being sold out by the Republicans (of whom I was never one) but I fear, the more I read and learn, that Obama has debts to pay and not to the voters that brought him to office.

This just in: Bush Advises Republican Party to Be 'Compassionate'

That was from today's WaPo. Now that I've stopped laughing at the absurdity of Bush's hollow, vacuous statement the anger over his endless arrogance has again taken hold. How could this empty suit and his heartless, soulless minions know anything of compassion?

What pathetic modicum of compassion could he or his party of miscreants possibly muster for anyone but their wealthy masters whom they've allowed to pillage every cent of wealth in the country to be found? His pals, aided and abetted by the Republican Party to which they hold the deed, have made people homeless, jobless and destitute at home as they profit from the suffering they’ve caused. As his cronies fatten their coffers from the war in Iraq he warehouses a whole new generation of service-disabled veterans then directs the VA to deny them benefits as they join the swelling ranks of the unemployed.

His concept of compassion is as twisted as he as evidenced by that $350B that he directed be given away to those who hold his leash. That money didn’t create one job, save one home from foreclosure or put money into the hands of those most in need. Rather that money paid the salaries and bonuses of the recipients, who deserved neither, and the rest was hoarded.

If you want compassion from Bush and his party than you’d better be able to write a check to the Republican Party with no less than five zeroes before the decimal point.
