Sailwind- And we should trust it because Rush would NEVER be biased in his own favor... You must think us thick.

"the scumbag Limbaugh"...And Kennedy's a saint...Some people are clueless.

Some people truly are. Sarge, if Kennedy made such remarks about Limbaugh, we would still object. Many of us here do not base everything we do on WHO people are, such as Repub or Dem. We base our thoughts on principles. An alien concept to you, I am sure.

This site most ignored Limbaugh over the years

I pray they return to those blissful days.

sailwind you miss the point completely (perhaps willingly), talking openly and publicly about someone's death is extremely rude and low. Surely reasoned objections can be made by Rush and others without being insulting. As likeitis said basic decency is evidence of having principles. Even GW Bush, gaffs and malapropisms aside, did not speak like this.

Amazing. Obama's foreign fans have taken it upon themselves to tune in to el Rushbo? What does his site charge for the podcast?

I wonder if President Obama will chicken out on Limbaugh's offer to fly him to New York and drive him and his entourage to the EIB Building to debate him, all-expenses paid...

Sarge is the type of person that would claim victory for Rush because the egotistical, pompous ass yells over another individual. Rush has no skills; he is simply politically pretentious and pretends that being obnoxious is some kind of a desirable trait. Of course sarge and rollonarte would say their man won just because he yelled louder, ignoring all decorum. I remember when they were so convinced that McCain had won a debate simply because he would obstruct Obama from making a point several times. Then they were dumbfounded by the American people's response and the apparent victory of Obama in every debate.

For some people it is very hard to distinguish the success of an alley fight from a debate of serious consequences. They simply can't understand why others would find a megalomaniac repugnant. Could it be that the boorish find it comfortable to flock together? Believe me most Republicans would find the impudent Limbaugh too uncouth to invite to their dinner party.

I am afraid you give the pair too much credit. You are accusing them of having reasons. In fact, they would say their man won simply because he is their man. Its the reason of having no reason, the natural choice for the far-right.

The far-right do not fool us half as much as we fool ourselves by giving them too much credit in the intelligence department, which is a natural mistake for an intelligent person to make. Its hard for intelligent people to understand and accept just how unintellectual some people are. That being said though, intelligence is not the only nor even the greatest power in the world, so we still must be cautious. Even dumb-luck poses a danger, and the far-right, being industrious, hardy and hard headed buggers, are more likely to get lucky (in sheer volume of getting lucky, with a disproportionate amount of stumblings).

Limbaugh made a career out of offending people. No one should be shocked when Russ opens his mouth, Kennedy probably took it with a grain of salt.
Sarge at 09:41 PM JST - 8th March

"Kennedy probably took it with a grain of salt"

Kennedy more likely took it with a swig of grain alcohol.

That is okay though, at it does not require "doctor shopping" and fake prescriptions to obtain grain alcohol unlike with oxycodone and hydrocodone.

a health care proposal will be named in memory of Sen Edward Kennedy

Since the man is very much alive, I think a better term would have been 'to honor' instead of 'in memory of'.
