Rush takes on "You seminar Guys"
hey anyone know w_ _ Rush was talking about? During a lull in the Jim Rome show, I bumped into Rush and he was ona diatribe against someone who had sneaked in under the radar and embarrassed him witha question. Didn't catch the question but I did catch " you guys, you seminar guys, who don't even have your own network, think you can call in here and not get caught, and something about knowing when his mother died and I don't know what else because, thankGod, I'm not a regular Rush listener.

But what was this "seminar guys" crack? Are any of YOU out there seminar guys? Sorry I missed it if it came to my town!

1. One of Rush's myths is that unfriendly callers all went to seminars
in order to learn how to infiltrate his show.

Pathetic.

2. Who the hell would go to a seminar to learn to do that?
And who told Rush that?

3. there was a thread here a while ago on it

4. Rush doesn't think we're smart enough to fool Bo Snerdley...
So we need to go to "seminars" to learn how to get on the EIB when we're Liberals.

Just say "Yeah? I wanna talk t'Rush about Klintoon? What he did t'some lil' 21-yr.-old when he was out in California?"
And you'll get right on.

5. Wait, we "don't even have our own network," and yet it's
the "liberal media"???

more flawed reasoning from el Dopo!

6. I didn't know what "seminar" meant, but Rush is losing it.
He's ecstatic that he's able to say ASS on the air now and he says it a lot. Rush the shock-jock. Today he enjoyed the use of the word testicles. A couple of women called in and tried to give him some advice, but of course he does not take advice from women--they listen to HIM. (He lets them know this.) And he tried to embarrass them with sexual innuendo. If a woman says something about testicles to him, he can't stand it. So he hits back with innuendo to try and make them feel uncomfortable. It really is the behavior of a 12-year-old. His recovery is not going well, I'm afraid.

He has really lost it, and it was one of the most pathetic performances on radio that I've ever heard. Really sad.

7. yes I agree
he is floundering and jumping about from topic to topic with no real focus. I also think he is receiving more calls that are judgemental of him and this is getting to him as well. I think he needs to be spending his time in rehabilitating himself rather than pretending to be the same old gift from God. He is coming apart and his employer should recognize that and take him off the air before he makes a major faux pas.

8. I'm not anything like a regular listener of his, but I tune in
occasionally in the car or if something happened that I know he'll go crazy over; today, it was campaign finance reform. While he ranted and raved and freaked about that for awhile, he then became unglued and went into the "testicles" B.S. From there he just couldn't seem to stop.

10. I'm Glad Other People Are Picking Up On This

Limbaugh's performance since his return from treatment has been really bizarre. Unorganized, slurring his words, weird laughing incidents, ridiculous mistakes (last week he referred to Hubert Humphrey as one of this country's ex-presidents). I think the guy is toast. And I'm overjoyed about it.....

13. But the slurring and hysterical laughter were things he used
to do when he was still USING.

...uh-oh.

12. I listened the other day for the first time in years
for about 5 mins. He was getting his jollies saying "sperm donor" over and over again, it was weird.

9. I went to one of those seminars.
It was pretty much just the show's telephone number and how to put on a really good southern accent. (They assumed you didn't have an accent already.)

16. Oh really? Please give us some more information
Edited on Wed Dec-10-03 07:35 PM by Bandit
Who sponsored the "seminar" you attended? How long did it last? How much did it cost? Where did the money go? In what city did this "Seminar" take place? Was it solely to learn how to get on the Rush Limbaugh Show? Was to fake a Southern accent all they taught you at this "Seminar"? Please fill us in on the juicy details.

14. He's been spouting that same ole s#%t for years....
Rush wants his faithfull bunch of loser listners to ALWAYS think that someone is do him in or ruin him. Shit,he does that on his own.

His newest fable that he keeps repeating: There have only been 300,000 people laid off under Bush. In fact a few days ago he spouted that not only could their not have been 2 million laid off but in fact we have GAINED jobs under Bush.

GD,I don't think I've ever laughed so hard in my life. Gained jobs?? Shit,I'd be the 11,000 laid off aviation workers here in Kansas that used to make $$15-20 per hour or more would like to dissagree with Fatass on his ridiculous remarks.

15. Btw, guys, see you all at the Secret Seminar tonight!
You know, the one where we coordinate all our hate-rants and get our Anti-Bush talking points. Same place as usual: the Buddhist Temple on the corner. Ssshh! Don't tell Rush!
