Limbaugh: "McVeigh was not inspired by anybody's words, he was inspired by Mr. Clinton's deeds."
Limbaugh blames Clinton for the Oklahoma City bombing, 9-11

Limbaugh asks Clinton, "What words caused Timothy McVeigh to act," says McVeigh was "outraged over the government invasion" in Waco. Responding to Clinton's statement that "the words we use do really matter," Limbaugh asked of Clinton: "What words caused Timothy McVeigh to act? Name one. I want to know what words and who spoke them. What are the words that Timothy McVeigh heard? What are the words he admitted that he heard that prompted him to act?" Limbaugh went on to say: "All I've ever heard is that Timothy McVeigh was outraged over the government invasion led by Janet Reno of the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas. And the Murrah building was blown up on that exact date two years later. ... Somebody show me the words, Mr. President, that McVeigh heard and caused him to act."

Limbaugh: "McVeigh was not inspired by anybody's words, he was inspired by Mr. Clinton's deeds." Limbaugh said that "McVeigh was not inspired by anybody's words, he was inspired by Mr. Clinton's deeds. And this is what they're trying to wash over; this is what they're trying to erase from the historical record."

13. This comment was flagged by Media Matters and posted to DU...
in order to expose the destructive rhetoric of the modern-day conservative movement...not to "spread their lies". Get real. We best acknowledge what's going on so that we can combat it.

30. For what reason!!?
Mouthing total disagreement with the value of discussing Limbaugh? Years pass and Limbaugh is still there, making more money spreading the same crap. If it isn't obvious we must be abetting rather than hurting the goon.

37. Like I Told Another Advanced Thinker Such As Yourself Recently:

You're not George Patton, and that fuckhead Limbaugh is certainly not Erwin Rommel. Trying to impose this bullshit Mutual Respect Between Worthy Opponents notion would be laughable, if it weren't so pathetic.

Know what I mean, "General"?

3. He was inspired by his fear of losing his gun rights.
McVeigh 2.0 was getting 'inspired' yesterday.

4. So according to Limbaugh, we can talk about why Al Qaeda says they attacked us on 9/11?
re: US support of Israel?

Does this deed of the United States justify the 9/11 attacks in Limbaugh's mind?

Does the Waco incident justify what McVeigh did in the slightest bit?

Does Limbaugh expect us to believe that McVeigh's only motivation was the Waco incident?

Well, that's enough questions Limbaugh would never in a million years try to answer.

6. Is Flush Now Claiming That Bill Clinton and Janet Reno Wrote The Turner Diaries?
So is Flush now claiming that Bill Clinton and Janet Reno wrote The Turner Diaries, the notoriously racist right-wing propaganda novel that Timothy McVeigh not only read and re-read but pushed on other people as often as he could?

:sarcasm: :tinfoilhat: :puke:

7. Koresh could have protected his family by walking out of
his compound and turning himself in. He could have gotten a good lawyer and we wouldn't be talking about this.

I do hold the government culpable in stupidity, they did watch Koresh go to town alone several times and didn't arrest him then. Why?

Rush conveniently forgets to talk about Koresh playing into the tradgedy.

10. In right wing Limbaugh world, armed white men who claim to be
Christian are without fault. Personal responsibility is for welfare mothers and immigrants, right leaning white men are entitled to unregulated behavior!

Your point that our system gives everyone the chance to stand before a court and plead ones case and we are all to be heard and considered equally. Koresh at Waco and the whackos at Ruby Ridge believed themselves to be above the law and chose violence.

9. Fat mouth with 0 brain power never takes responsibility for
his lies. Fucking mcveigh killed innocent people because he was an ignorant asshole.

A fucking weak little coward who killed children to make him seem like a man. I don't happen to know if he turned into limpbaugh's dirty lies or not.

11. Tim McVeigh was inspired by the words of nuts. Christian Identity, Unintended Consequences,
The Turner Diaries. McVeigh hated the govt. He even hated some of the stuff he saw in Iraq by our own govt. during the first Gulf War. His hatred for the govt. was pushed deeper into him not by Clinton, though he hated him too, but by others who hated the govt. first.

15. Rush continues to construct his own reality
where conservatives' shit doesn't smell and liberals are evil America-hating terrorists.

God, I can't WAIT for the day he dies on the toilet of an Oxy overdose.

16. Limbaugh again ducks the truth, just like he tried to hide his instigating of "operation chaos".
Edited on Tue Apr-20-10 09:46 PM by political_Dem
America continues to get punished by the verbal pummeling of this ingrate. Why can't the Oxycotin King travel to the Bermuda Triangle and disappear off the face of this earth?

22. by trying to defend what happened at waco he's giving cover to that pedophile david koreche.
It's like nobody gets outraged when these idiots say stupid things. If a liberal had said that fat bastard would be calling him all sorts of things right now. It's like the left is asleep.

27. You want to shut up the fat freak. Boycott his sponsors.
If every Democrat agreed to boycott his sponsors he would be out of business in a couple of months. The Gays showed the way when they boycotted Coors. Coors not only stopped their attacks, but initiated a program of tolerance and understanding. When their crap sits on the shelve for a month they will dump the loud mouthed fat ass. The same should be done in regard to FOX.

28. What a delusional fuck....
Rush (and now Sean and Glenn and etc.) are on the air day in and day out. They're talking about how the government is lying to you. They're talking about about how the government is stealing from you. They're talking about how the government is taking away your freedom. They're talking about how somebody had better do something to stop this. And when some deranged loner takes what they say at face value and murders a hundred or more people, they stand back and pretend that they had nothing to do with it.

Hell, all I did was bought the guy a gun and loaded the bullets in it. And then I guess I helped him aim. But he pulled the trigger ALL BY HIMSELF. I had nothing to do with with it. Nothing at all.


By Rush's standards, we really ought to release Charles Manson from prison with our sincerest apologies because, after all, he really didn't kill anybody, now, did he?
