Limbaugh is rude, crude, dismissive, pompous, and most of all
is a fucking jerk.

Just saw the interview on Countdown.

He really had nothing but disdain for the reporter.

1. Some of Limbaugh's past statements
"I mean, let’s face it, we didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back; I’m just saying it had its merits. For one thing, the streets were safer after dark."

"You know who deserves a posthumous Medal of Honor? James Earl Ray. We miss you, James. Godspeed."

"Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"

"Look, let me put it to you this way: the NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it."

"The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies."

"They’re 12 percent of the population. Who the hell cares?" (referring to black people)

"Take that bone out of your nose and call me back." (to an African American female caller)

"I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. They’re interested in black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well. I think there’s a little hope invested in McNabb and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn’t deserve."

Limbaugh has attacked Obama personally, calling him a ‘halfrican American’ calling him the ‘affirmative action candidate’ and playing a song about ‘Barack the Magic Negro’.

And in the unfortunate aftermath of the destructiveness of Hurricane Katrina, Limbaugh kept referring to the black Mayor of New Orleands again and again as "Mayor Nayger", not by his actual name of Mayor Nagin. Everyone knows what word he was actually trying to call him. All the while, he was being hyper-critical of this man.

2. I just saw the clip too--what is the earpiece all about?
And yes, he is really being an asshole. I would not dare watch a Rush clip on my own, but now that it's been shoved down my throat... why does the MSM keep covering Limbo? WTF?

7. Rush did so many drugs he actually went deaf. Not kidding.
That's what the earpiece is about. It's a cochlear device.

14. Poll on AOL
Aol is running a poll on Rush and the last I saw it was 55% to 39% in favor of him. A lot of ditto heads out there.

13. Public airwaves certainly don't belong to the public anymore

10. Limbaugh lives in his own world where he is the King...
And everything he touches turns to gold, and the people bow down to kiss his feet. The problem is... thats what
happens when you have self delusions of grandeur. He is simply the King of Pig world... and thats it.

11. He's PT Barnum 2009


It's all show biz to him. Smoke and mirrors. And everyone within range of his voice is a sucker as far as
he's concerned. I honestly don't think he's ever had a moment of 'sincerity' in his entire miserable life.

And I don't feel one bit sorry for that lowlife asshole.

15. Unbelievable level of misogyny that he could barely contain. I've
actually had the displeasure of listening to him on occasion for nearly 20 years, and he has ALWAYS had that attitude toward women!

16. Limbaugh is just an overall piece of shit. He contributes nothing of value to society.
