Rush Limbaugh tries to talk down emotionally distraught Palin supporter.


Like many children, I was greatly affected by the scene in Bambi where the young deer’s mother is shot. Bambi runs through the snowy woods frantically trying to find his mother until his father, the Prince of the forest, appears and calmly tells him, “Your mother can’t be with you anymore.” The way I felt watching that scene is the same way I feel listening to this Rush Limbaugh clip as Limbaugh tries his very best to explain to a poor Sarah Palin supporter that, dude, it just ain’t happening.

I could not bring myself to listen, but the headline itself is priceless.

3. I listened, and am surprised at the 'seriousness'
of the conversation. Can't believe the subject matter, tho!

2. Rush's show is the Palin-drones' suicide hotline
God, those people are pathetic. How would they fall apart if they ever had real problems?

5. I listened to it and it was somewhat interesting. But I was hoping for the full-on...
...Pat Boone playing in the background, the caller wailing and crying, perhaps alternately threatening to smash his hand-painted (some parts more lovingly than others) plaster bust of Palin and refusing to ever let it go. And so on and so on. I'm sure there will be more like him. I want the deep sea Palin fish, the ones who cosplay her, the ones with the basement shrines. I have a weltschmerz schadenfreude sweet tooth dedicated just to their political agony. Every time I had to use the Hide Thread function and Jesus and Mary that was a lot, I knew this day would eventually come and I am ready for some breakdowns!

Bring on the breakdowns!

7. That's hilarious
Poor guy's probably still in the bag after that letdown.

It's possible that he might've swept away his tears, fixed his jaw, and screamed into the radio: "Damn you Rush Limbaugh. Sarah's going to show you...She'll show everybody! You'll see.".

9. Racist bigot teabaggers are really caught in a quandary
They can't bring themselves to support a Mormon...

They might say they support Herman Cain, but c'mon...he's black...they aren't serious, it's just a ploy so they can say they aren't racist

They don't like Perry because he's not tough enough on immigration...

Poor widdle teabaggers
