Question about Limbaugh

I can't stomach listening to Limbaugh, but can anyone tell me whether he ever spoke out on his radio show about the gay marriage issue?

Did he have the nerve to talk about "preserving the sanctity of marriage"?

1. I can stand to listen to the...
Gas bad ever so often. Not sure of his views, but he does avoid talking about religion mostly.... He is probably more in bed with the Neocons and the "fiscal conservatives", not sure if he is really part of the fundie group....

2. I don't know,
and I don't understand how banning gay marriage 'preserves' it. If the religious right thinks marriage is so important, why aren't they banning people living together and having illegitamate children? Has anyone called into Limpballs or someone else asking about this?

5. Well, of course that crew don't like illegitimate children, either.
And it's all libertine white liberal feminist women and black single mothers who do it, white Republican women never have sex outside of marriage and wind up with unexpected pregnancies, if you believe the bloviating people like OxyBoy get paid to provide.

They never get abortions, either.

7. Since when has he been anything but a hypocrite?
Nothing he says has any bearing on integrity or truth, it's all "for entertainment purposes only". At the very bottom of his motivational structure, you'll find an insecure neglected child desparate for parental approval.

8. Hi everyone....I mentioned this before but here goes....
I really think we should push...no demand that a constitutional admendment be passed against divorce...

The problem with "family values" isn't about boys kissing...but people not keeping to their commitments...

After all..."What dog has brought together...let no man pull asunder...";)


We should really throw this "red herring" out for them to chew on...

Being a democrat with no values...or so I'm told...we should show our "true" values and push for this admendment...

My goodness...all those red states would have to live in there own *hit...after all aren't the highest divorce rates in the south?

17. Yes, divorce rates are high here
in the South. My state, Arkansas, has the second-highest rate of divorce, followed only by Nevada.

I'm still on my first marriage (lol) and I'd LOVE to see how a divorce amendment would go over here.

10. I think when Global Warming truly starts to get a lot more intrusive ..
...than it is now, we should form a Lynch mob and string his lying' ass up. He's a large part of the reason why folks think Global warming is a bunch of crap.

12. A man who's been divorced three times...
has no business discussing "preserving the sanctity of marriage."

Cause when I got married, I promised something about "till death do you part." Maybe they leave that line out for 650-pound Republicans, but Democrats gotta say it.

14. For that matter, he also has no business referring to women who...
...think for themselves as "man-hating feminazis." Like a three-time divorcee has any fucking clue about women! :grr::nuke:

13. Rush equates homosexuality with beastiality...

"The FMA would have defined marriage, in the U.S. Constitution, as solely the union of one man and one woman. Now that it's failed, there's nothing stopping activist judges--like those on the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court--from creating not only gay marriage, but legalizing polygamy and even marriages between people and their pets..." -- http://www.rushonline.com/visitors/marriage.htm

18. The other day, a co-worker asked me if I liked Rush Limbaugh.
To which I replied, "To tell you the truth, I don't like most talk radio. It's too nasty."

My co-worker knitted his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

"Well, let's take Mr. Limbaugh. I've heard him refer to women who can think for themselves as 'man-hating feminazis.' Not only is that igorant, it's mean-spirited and childish. But I wouldn't expect a man who's on his third divorce to have a clue about women."

That pretty much ended the conversation! :evilgrin:
