OMG...You'll LOVE this Rush Limbaugh 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 (OxyMoron) Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988

I got it from Ray Dubuque who runs http://www.liberalslikechrist.org . I'm an atheist and I'm on his mailing list. I first heard him on the Mike Malloy Show, pissed that the reich-wingers had hijacked Christ for their own purposes. If you're a liberal Christian you ought to love this!

1. I am not surprised Rush bites his own ass.
He does it every day.

2. Too good to be true! Hope it is, though. It was certainly their attitude.
Of course, Rush would deny it, even if there is a tape of him saying it.

7. Yeah, it was--and still is--their attitude, but I'm getting info it...
...may be debunked.

Geez, I never get a good scoop. :) :shrug: Oh well. The truth is always more important than a good sound byte.

12. Quote is not authentic, comes from a Boondocks comic strip.
Aaron McGruder had the quote coming over a radio while children were listening. The children in the next frame ask their father, "Who's that on the radio?"

Father says, "Some guy named Rush Limbaugh"

Limbaugh again, "I say we round up all the drug addicts and gas them, too!"

I don't want to spread rumors, if it is a rumor.

11. I saw that earlier today,
and was planning on using it after I had checked it out. There were only a few Google-search 'hits', but the "primary source" links they referred to were dead. I saw nothing indicating that it was "debunked" (just checked Snopes.com), but as far as I'm concerned, it's "undetermined".

As tempting as it may be, there's plenty of VERIFIABLE stuff about that scumbag that could be used instead.

13. Don't worry Ladyhawk, it "sounds like something Rush would say!"
Kind of like the Texas lady who said she didn't type the documents sent to Dan Rather, but that they sounded like what Killian would have said!
