How did I miss this one??? Rush defending Saddam!!!!!

Originally I linked to DU from Liberal Slant . I haven't been going there lately because they don't update much anymore. Today I needed a copy of the Hermann Goering quote that they post at the top of their page, and I found this new quote there:

"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

Not real, sorry.
I could easily see Rush saying that, though.

This should be publicized more. Any ideas how?

have been looking everywhere for this info. Have a great weekend!

Claim: Talk show host Rush Limbaugh's 3 November 1988 broadcast included a statement approving the selling of chemical warfare agents to Saddam Hussein and the gassing of drug addicts.

Status: False.

Can't wait for his TV show though...
Oh and thanks you guys, last time he got me Du'ers almost bit my head off for falling for it, I appreciate you being cool about it...

Is Liberal Slant doing us a favor putting bogus quotes up?

It's right up there with the Goering quote which I know is real..

like Limbaugh.

Actually, I don't know what to say. Outrage doesn't begin to say how I feel right now.

Dammit!! Must remember to read whole post before going off half cocked!!

Lol... wheee!

so let's not publicize it, ok?

;)
