"It offends me that a man running for the president of the United States knows 10% of what I know about this. It offends me. In the case of Obama and Hillary, they know what they're spewing is a bunch of BS. They know they're spouting lies. I don't know what McCain is doing here, but if he honestly believes this, then it is offensive. I'm not supposed to be smarter than the guy running for president, neither are you."

-- Radio host Rush Limbaugh, reacting in outrage to John McCain's speech on global warming

The thing is...

If this is a participatory democracy and Limbaugh is so smart, why isn't he looking to get elected himself or accept a position in the government to effect the changes he wishes to see?

And I'm not even going to comment on how "smart" a man is that review the research being done of GCC and conclude that it isn't happening.

don't blame rush

it's the oxycontin talking.

A little off topic, but

listen to a Limbaugh show and note the crude predatory ads. Advertisers know their demographics and are taking advantage of the Ditto head crowd which must be top heavy with dumbasses.

I can imagine the pain

he has endured over the last 7 1/2 years, funny he hasn't talked about that. Let it out Rush, you'll feel better.

If a twigg falls in the forest but nobody is there to hear it, it's probably best because there is bound to be cussing.
The Person I Love To Hate

Why has no one put this man in his place. You have no idea the influence he has on his listeners. They almost place him in a "god-like" position. Surely the "wackos" have someone who could go toe-to-toe with Rush?!? What's the matter? Chicken?

Rush is a huge, and I'm not pointing out his weight problem, dissapointment to man kind. He makes me want to vomit and then suck it back up through a staw.

Anyone?
