Default Limbaugh: The most dishonest gasbag on the air.

OK folks, when there is time will research the specific link that I aquired these Rush quotes from. All I can tell you now is that I heard BOTH of these on the radio with my own ears. The one about the soldiers just today.

1. "These liberals actually rejoice everytime a U.S. soldier dies in Iraq".


2. "Bill Clinton's approval poll numbers were once down in the low twenties".


The first statement is so SICK that it is more in the category of a Nazi propaganda than something trying to pass for opinion in America today. I have met many Republicans or "Conservatives" who want to nuke Iran or shoot illegal aliens in the back. They say this all the time.

But I have never met even one Liberal express anything except sorrow over the loss of even just one American troop.


Bill Clinton's approval polls never dropped lower than 36% in any major poll during his eight years in office.

During Clinton's second term these polls never dropped BELOW 52% and averaged in the 60's. Nearly TWICE the Dubya "Idiot In Chief" poll numbers today!

Conservatives like Limbaugh WISH that Liberals rejoice whenever a soldier dies in Iraq becaues they could then claim they tell the truth about ONE thing in their lives... but that is not the case. Rush is a liar thru and thru.

Limbaugh Lies!

07/20/05 : Limbaugh Offers Pathetic Assertion Regarding Timing of Bush's SCOTUS NomineeEven though there is no basis for suggesting so, Limbaugh asserts Bush announced his nominee after happy hour so that Ted Kennedy would be too intoxicated to appear for a public statement. This comes from a man who is addicted to Oxycontin.

03/10/05 : Limbaugh Blithely Tells Real America to Stop Whining About Oil PricesIn an astonishing display of just how out of touch Limbaugh is with working people, Limbaugh tells us to stop whining about high oil prices and go earn more money.

02/28/05 : Limbaugh Lied to Troops in AfghanistanIn one of his most appalling episodes, Rush tells listeners how he went to Afghanistan and told the troops the left and the media want more of them to die. This based on an utter distortion of a Reuters story.

02/19/05 : Limbaugh says Liberals Cannot start BusinessesLimbaugh insists "liberals" cannot start businesses because of government grants. BUt Limbaugh fails to consider the billions in coporate welfare doled out each and every year.

02/18/05 : Limbaugh USO Sends a bunch of "liberals and leftits"Limbaugh likes to lash out wildly. Right wing rhetoric has turned the word "liberal" into weapon and he used it to attack the USO as prefering "liberals". Thing of it is, Rush spoke without facts and undermined the whole "liberals don't support the troops" mantra in the process.

01/11/05 : Rush Attacks and Racially Distorts the Term "Neocon"Rush loves to divide people. When there is no substantive disagreement, Rush will just make something up. In this case, Rush is attempting to redefine the term neocon as a racially pejorative, thereby branding all of those who use it racist.

10/28/2004 : Rush shoots from the hip and lies about missing explosivesLimbaugh really out did himself with this one. With no facts in hand, Rush launches a completely basless attack on the media and John Kerry in order to provide cover for the latest Iraq failure of this administration to come to light.

06/29/2004 : Ties, Connection, Contact, Relationship : GOP Wiggle WordsLike the rest of the right, Limbaugh mixed words to cover up that while Americans are dying, this administration made claims that were simply unfounded.

06/29/2004 : Rush Knows Nothing About CivilityToday, Rush distorted Reagans record and turned it into yet another unfounded attack on the media.

05/04/2004 : Rush and His Curious Hazing IdeasRush speaking about the humiliation of prisoners in Iraq, insisted that stripping people naked, stacking them into piles, forcing them into homosexual acts, being menaced by dogs and even being beaten to death.. are just like the hazing rituals of fraternities.

04/23/2004 : Rush Uses the Death of Pat Tillman to Attack the NY TimesLimbaugh asserted the NY Times reported on the death of Pat Tillman in such a way as to "maasge it to be less in the minds of readers". However, there was nothing about their reporting to back this up. Rush is doing exactly what he just told his listeners shouldn't be done.

04/14/2004 : More Attack on Kerry, Clarke and Using the Word HateRush uses prejudicial rhetoric and factless gibes to attack liberals, Kerry and Clarke.

04/13/2004 : Rush, Race, Music and John KerryWith distinct racial mischaracterizations, Rush takes Kerry's statement out of context and attacks him for a simple statement about contemporary music.

02/16/2004 : Pandering the Prejudice of Listeners With the Word HateRush casts all democrats as hateful and Bush supporters as positive. Of course Rush did not involve facts anywhere in this "discussion".

02/16/2004 : Mischaracterizing the discussion and attacking Kerry some more..In a huge display of hypocrisy, Rush suggests Kerry really isn't a war hero and then goes on to endeavor to define democrats in ways that are untrue by mischaracterizing the comparison between Kerry's Viet Nam service and George W's draft dodging.

02/10/2004 : The "Dangerous Road"..In defending Bush's campaign appearance on the Meet the Press, Rush insults the intelligence of listeners, suggests that asking questions is a "dangerous road" and ignores facts regarding the differnce between the Viet Nam era National Guard and that of today..

02/10/2004 : They HATE war heroes!Without even a shred of substance to make such a divisive, irresponsible statement, Rush determines what all liberals think about war heroes.

"Look ma no facts!"
02/03/2004 : Rush Further Confirms His HypocrisyRush continues to influence the thinking of his listeners. Part of Rush's personna was that of a moral authority. Now that it is known he is not, Rush continues to ignore his hypocrisy and still claims that his understanding of morality is something all should hear. Rush also denies that he says what people expect him to say.

01/30/2004 : Rush Focuses on Attacking Front-Runner Sen. John KerryNow that Sen. Kerry is the front runner, Rush bombards his listeners with distortion and unjustified attacks. And of course he includes wider attacks on democrats again suggesting they would "negotiate with Ossama" even though facts soundly contradict this.

01/27/2004 : Rush Attacks the Patriotism of Those Who Question BushYet again, Rush launches a volley of condemnation and attack against those who question the Bush administration. As is usual, Rush's demagoguery is stiffles debate, provides cover for the administration and is most unfounded.

01/21/2004 : Rush Distorting Clark's Statements (again)Ed Gillespie took pieces of Clark's testimony before congress about Iraq out of context and added words that were not there. Rush in his onging to tell people what they wish to hear, casts truth aside and misinforms his flock fo faithful listeners.

12/24/2003 : Mooing at the Media Over Mad CowDespite the fact the first occurence of BSE in this country is a big story and the media did in fact frequently report that the beef supply is safe, Rush demagogues the issue and suggests the media is really interested in attacking the beef industry and pursuing politically correct avoidance of beef. Maybe the Atkin's diet people are all republicans?

12/22/2003 : Oxycontin Investigations.. Blame the Other GuyHere, Rush attempts to blame the investigations into his illegal acquisition of controlled substances on Democrats.

12/11/2003 : Rush Attacks Hillary for Stating Basic FactsMost people have read about the Hajj and at least have heard mention of it. But when Hillary Clinton refers to it during a discussion about terrorism, Rush charges her with showboating and acting intelligent.

No wonder he has three ex-wives. Living with a hate filled windbag has to be the job of a saint, not that any saint would wish it on their worst enemy.

Thanks for the links, Spyder.

What do you expect? He has an audience of uncritical thinkers who want to hear what they want to hear.
