Rush Limbaugh -- ignorant and clueless
This might have already been covered, but I laughed hysterically when I began to read about Rush's speech at CPAC. the comments I'm referring to are in these paragraphs.

>>>>>"We conservatives have not done a good enough job of just laying out basically who we are, because we make the mistake of assuming that people know. What they know is largely incorrect, based on the way we're portrayed in pop culture, in the drive-by media, by the Democrat party," the conservative talk show host told a mostly young crowd of energized supporters.

"We want every American to be the best he or she chooses to be. We recognize that we are all individuals. We love and revere our founding documents, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. We believe that the preamble of the Constitution contains an inarguable truth, that we are all endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty, freedom -- and the pursuit of happiness," he said, pausing several times for enthusiastic applause.<<<<<


First, the obvious slur that we are the "democrat" party, as per usual by all ignorant pugs.

But then the abyssmal failure of Rush, quoting from the Declaration of Independence instead of the Constitution! How completely idiotic. It just goes to show how ignorant he and his listeners really are. And if they don't even know the difference between the two major documents in American history, you have to wonder how stupid they are about ALL other things historical.

I can name a few:

This is NOT a Christian nation, though they say it is.

Very few of the founding fathers were Christians, though they believe they were. Most of them were Deists.

The original Pledge of Allegiance did NOT include the words "under God" as they believe. It was added much later.

The same goes for our currency--God had nothing to do with it, despite their insistence.

There is likely absolutely NO secret society that runs our country, but with all the shit from repugs, I do begin to wonder.

More gaffes from the pug side of the isle? Name them!
