Are Rush fans really this stupid?
Are Rush fans really this stupid?

I was listening to a local conservative talk show on my way home. They were taking calls about the Rush BS. I was amazed how stupid these people are.

First lady.

“Remember JFK had doctor feelgood? What did he need that for, he didn’t have any pain. Rush has had so much pain in his life. First with the back problems, then the ear problems. And he has been honest with us the whole time”

The host cuts her off here:
“he has not been honest with us, he lied about his ear problems”

Then she says!
“that’s his personal business he have no right analyzing that!”

Ok next caller
“I’ll bet rush was working with the DEA to find out where these drugs are coming from.”

I was so pissed. I had to change the station. How can people be so stupid?

8. Yes, they're that stupid.
Rush Limbaugh's fans actually think "dittohead" is a compliment. If they got any dumber they have tails.

The Sheeple Loved Being Called Dittoheads!
Rush and Nicole Bush are repeat offendors of misuse of prescription drugs. No prison time. The everday American would be locked away for years. I think it's time we start yelling.

9. how in denial they are
I can't help but think of the post by that one freeper that was on a thread there that said he just knew Rush was collecting all these pills and building a four-foot statue out of them. When revealed, it would look like a blue Smerf. And then he would presumably bust out laughing at all the naive people who thought he--Rush Limbaugh, the pure and moral--was doing drugs.

Man, you talk about a stretch. These people are so deluded and to think, they've been following this drug-addled fanatic for years. And this is what we have voting in this country. No wonder we're in such pitiful shape.

12. Thanks! So Funny!
You mean that this isn't a LW conspiracy after all? You think that El Rushbo chose very poor personsal decisions? Yes. These people vote as instructed by the types of Rush and Falwell and Robertson. That part isn't funny. It's scary. Their wanting to be led is nothing more than a bunch of lemmings running to the sea. Bush depends on these intellectually limited supporters for their votes for him.

10. Yes
I didn't even bothering reading the thread.

For awhile I had to be in the cubicle next to die-hard Rush and Laura listeners until I had it shut down for violating the sexual harassment policy at work.

They really are that stupid.

Now I'll read the thread.

“I’ll bet rush was working with the DEA to find out where these drugs are coming from.”

Oh that is like Simpsen looking for Nicole's real killer, isn't it. BTW: how is his serch going?

14. The sad truth is, his listeners are junkie addicts, too!
They're addicted to Rush, so Rush can do no wrong.

Sad, but true, they ahve as serious an addiction as their own idol. They've been enabling his addiction for years now, just as he enables theirs.

Such is the life of a junkie.

Rush Limbaugh no slouch with the sticks
by John Albers, Golf Press Association

No slouch with the sticks himself after only playing for the past six years, Limbaugh is visiting
Lake Tahoe for the American Century Championship this year for the first time. Limbaugh has
played in the PGA Tour's Bob Hope Chrysler Classic three times and the AT&T Pebble Beach
Pro-Am twice, making the cut in 2003 and playing on the weekend with PGA Tour professional
Tom Pernice. Nevertheless, Limbaugh strikes an unusually humble pose when describing his
chances this weekend.

21. I forgot all about him playing golf
with back pain, a lot of pros wouldn't have been able to do so under similar circumstances. He's truly great, a man's man.

Ya think maybe he's the official dealer to the PGA? Maybe this is the distribution channel that some have wondered about due to the rather large quantity of, ahem, "alleged" purchases.

So this is day #1 of rehab? Looks like it's gonna work this time. Mega doses, Rush!

23. They're called enablers, that's how Bush got elected.
50% of us are co-dependents. That's why the drunk Bush is a popular president, even with a 50% approval rating.

24. They listen to a racist. Yes they are...
Snopes proves he said "Take that bone out of your nose and call me back".

Talk radio host Rush Limbaugh once told a black caller to "Take that bone out of your nose and call me back."

http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/limbaugh.asp

He deserves everything we hit him with and more.

27. Every RW "thinktank" is ordering staffers to call in to spin this thing
...so they can get their mouth organ back on the air again.
