Rush Limbaugh and other hate radio talkers have aggressively attacked the candidacy pf Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). Today on his radio show, Limbaugh responded to the explosive New York Times story on McCain’s relationship with lobbyist Vicki Iseman by spinning it as a victory for hate radio.
According to Limbaugh, this episode is the predictable consequence of McCain shunning him and other hate radio pundits:
The important question for John McCain today is, is he going to learn the right lesson from this, and what is the lesson? The lesson is liberals are to be defeated. You cannot walk across the aisle with them. You cannot reach across the aisle. You cannot welcome their media members on your bus and get all cozy with them and expect eternal love from them. You are a Republican. [...]
There’s a great opportunity here for Senator McCain to learn the right lesson and understand who his friends are and who his enemies are. He’s had that backwards for way too long.
Listen to Limbaugh’s comments here:
Right-wing pundit Laura Ingraham was similarly self-righteous today, stating:
I ask the McCain campaign this question: Do you think you need talk radio now? Do you think that talk radio’s important to set the record straight, or do you think a press conference, where the media is shouting question after question at you — do you think that’s going to put an end to all of this?
Right wing pundits still don’t like McCain, but they’re willing to give him a second chance — as long as the senator is willing to see the light and change his ways. David Brody of CBN believes that this New York Times “hit job” may seen as “a conservative badge of honor” and “could actually help John McCain.”
Always classy, Limbaugh ended his segment by saying that he wasn’t surprised that The New York Times published an unfavorable piece on McCain. “It’s as predictable as Ted Kennedy finding a bar at happy hour,” he said.
Transcript:
RUSH: Would you give me a break? You’re surprised that Page Six-type gossip is on the front page of the New York Times? Where have you been? How in the world can anybody be surprised at the New York Times? I cannot believe how everybody’s missing this! I even have guys from The Politico, Jonathan Martin saying, “You got a reaction?” I sent him a couple paragraphs, and it’s being misinterpreted a bit. I guess I wasn’t clear enough. Anyway, greetings, folks. Here we are with another three hours of broadcast excellence at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies. It’s great to have you with us. The telephone number is 800-282-2882. The e-mail address is ElRushbo@eibnet.com.
What have I always said that today is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt? It is this: If you let the media make you, you are subjecting yourself to the media being able to destroy you. Senator McCain — the important thing about what has happened here in the New York Times, the only important thing to me — I don’t care what’s in this story. The story is not the story. The story is that this paper endorsed McCain, sat on this story and now puts it out just prior to McCain wrapping up the nomination. And McCain says he’s disappointed. Why? Why is anybody disappointed or surprised but this? They are who they are. A snake is a snake. A tiger is a tiger. The New York Times is the New York Times. Folks, if you expect me to be angry about the story and angry at the New York Times, you have tuned to the wrong radio show. I refuse to get mad when something I have predicted is going to happen, happens. I refuse to get mad when something I know is true, is true. It’s a total waste of energy.
The important question for John McCain today is, is he going to learn the right lesson from this, and what is the lesson? The lesson is liberals are to be defeated. You cannot walk across the aisle with them. You cannot reach across the aisle. You cannot welcome their media members on your bus and get all cozy with them and expect eternal love from them. You are a Republican. Whether you’re a conservative Republican or not, you are a Republican. At some point, the people you cozy up to, either to do legislation or to get cozy media stories, are going to turn on you. They are snakes. If the right lesson is not learned from this, then it will have proved to be of no value. There’s a great opportunity here for Senator McCain to learn the right lesson and understand who his friends are and who his enemies are. He’s had that backwards for way too long. He has thought the New York Times is his friend. He has thought Chris Matthews and these other people in the Drive-By Media are his friends. They aren’t. That’s the lesson today.
The story is not the story. The story is the Drive-By Media turning on it’s favorite maverick trying to take him out. The media picked the Republican candidate. The New York Times endorsed that candidate while they sat on this story, and now with utter predictability, they are trying to destroy him. This is what you get when you walk across the aisle and try to make these people your friends. Why should any of us be surprised or even angry at what the New York Times is doing here trying to take out John McCain? Those of you who listen regularly should have been expecting this all along because it’s utterly predictable. It’s as predictable as the sun rising in the morning. It’s as predictable as Ted Kennedy finding a bar at happy hour.
The 19% Militia to the rescue!
Charge!

February 21st, 2008 at 3:28 pmthis is actually getting to be funny – please dems – win “everything” this year and put these fools out of their misery.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:29 pmLaura Ingraham:
I ask the McCain campaign this question: Do you think you need talk radio now?
After all, someone’s got to catapult the propaganda!
February 21st, 2008 at 3:31 pm” Do you think that talk radio’s important to set the record straight, or do you think a press conference, where the media is shouting question after question at you — do you think that’s going to put an end to all of this?”
Translation: do you want us to spin the news your way, or would you rather have the truth exposed?
February 21st, 2008 at 3:31 pmListen to the way these maniacs talk. Being a Republicans means simply opposing Democrats according to Limbaugh. It’s not about being for certain issues, or wanting the best for the country, it’s simply about opposing Democrats. Rush’s dream for America is seeing us back in a Civil War killing each other, and his biggest fear is a truly united country that doesn’t see everything along party lines.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:34 pmOxyRush: “The media picked the Republican candidate.”
Translation: The wrong media picked the Republican candidate. It should have been us, radio, ME!! I’m the “excellence in broadcasting”. I’m the “talent on loan from God”. It should have been me. *sniff* It should have been me. WWWAAAHHH. I want my oxy!
February 21st, 2008 at 3:35 pmIs Limbaugh or the NYT more to be despised? Hyenas pulling at the same carcass.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:35 pmGood point, Rush.
Comment by good_golly — February 21, 2008 @ 3:34 pm
Now, roll over. Play dead. Don’t speak. Good boy.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:36 pmsoooo, according to that fatass blowfly limpbawls, mc cain’s true friends are impotent drug addicts? perhaps mc cain should choose better “friends”
February 21st, 2008 at 3:37 pmRush: “You cannot walk across the aisle with them. You cannot reach across the aisle.”
Translation: Bipartisanship is something to be avoided. DO NOT bring America together, drive it apart!
So much for yet another Bush Promise! Well, we knew that one was a lie the second it left his mouth, but still, it’s good to have proof that Republicans hate America!
February 21st, 2008 at 3:38 pmThe NY Times of Judith Miller who sold us a war? The NY Times that held off on the NSA Spying program during Bush’s 2004 run? The NY Times that cancelled a story of Bush wearing an earpiece during his debates with John Kerry days before the election? The NY Times that didn’t cover the Downing St. Memos which were smoking gun proof of being lied into war?
Must I go on?
February 21st, 2008 at 3:38 pmAh.. I wondered how Limbo was going to work his way back from McCain trashing: He’s going to embrace McCain as a born again conservative who has rejected his moderate past.
Oh, wait… thats what McCain is doing. Nevermind.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:39 pmThis is like the fights you have with siblings where anything goes. But let just one outsider attack a member of the family, no matter how righteous, and the family closes ranks and defends.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:39 pmHumans are an odd species.
I heard earlier that the Drudge Report actually broke the affair story a while back. If that’s the case, how can Republicans spin this as some liberal media conspiracy? Is Matt Drudge now a liberal? And if the sources are former McCain staffers, doesn’t that hurt the whole “liberal smear” argument? Was it a vast liberal conspiracy that infiltrated McCain’s staff?
February 21st, 2008 at 3:41 pm‘The lesson is liberals are to be defeated. You cannot walk across the aisle with them. You cannot reach across the aisle. ‘
That’s why this country is in the mess it is right now. Thanks to Newt, everyone stopped talking to each other and working together. Are these people still in high school? It’s like the jocks and cheerleaders against everyone who isn’t like them. It just makes my skin crawl.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:41 pm“McCain should understand who his friends are.”
Yeah, and Rush Limpdick isn’t one of them, nor is Trannie Coulter.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:41 pmComment by Badmoodman — February 21, 2008 @ 3:39 pm
Limbaugh, Ingraham, Coulter, and McCain – human? Please. More like snakes willing to slither all over each other just to get their place in the sunlight.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:43 pmyou know what i was thinking?
maybe the NYT – who ENDORSED mcCREEPY – wanted to put this out
so that the righties would think “hey, he IS one of us… he’s corrupt
too… he MUST be a real righty… and a young blonde *wink*wink*
(nice goin’ maverick!)”…
guess it didn’t work for limpballs…
just a thought…
February 21st, 2008 at 3:43 pmI don’t understand why these dis/mis – information radio talkers hate McCain so much.
He’s for the tax cuts.
He’s for continuing the occupation 100 more years.
And now he’s pro-torture.
Isn’t this almost their entire agenda?
Do they think that a President McCain would defy a policy paper from AEI?
February 21st, 2008 at 3:44 pm“The lesson is liberals are to be defeated.”
what a sad, sick, life…
February 21st, 2008 at 3:45 pmDavid Brody of CBN believes that this New York Times “hit job†may seen as “a conservative badge of honor†and “could actually help John McCain.â€
ah… yep, there it is…
February 21st, 2008 at 3:47 pmThe NYT put this out now because it was ready and the the New Republic was going to put it out first if they didn’t.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:50 pmMcCain run, don’t walk to the darkside with Limbaugh. Nobody wants you anywhere else.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:51 pmMust I go on?
Comment by 2MillionLightYearsToAndromeda
No, those of us with half a brain get it, and those of us who don’t get it never will. (You know who you are)
February 21st, 2008 at 3:51 pmHis email address is elrushbo? Ewww – is that what the sweet young things in the Dominican have to call him?
This story gave me an image of a bunch of sneering, jeering yahoos circled around someone who is drowning yelling, “Have you learned your lesson yet?! Are you ready for us to throw you a life preserver yet? Will you beg us to help you and tell us how much you need us?!”
Bullies and thugs and definitely a negative element that is not good for this country.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:52 pmAnd again the mainstream media partisan tricks continue

Or limbaugh at an all you can eat breakfast bar at Shoneys, with a plate full of bacon. Or Limbaugh on a sex tour of the Domincan Republic with a vail of someone else’s Viagra.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:54 pmRush: “You cannot walk across the aisle with them. You cannot reach across the aisle.â€
Rush wants a 1 party system? He’s a phuck’n COMMIE!
February 21st, 2008 at 3:54 pmI hope that hateful fatass thug Limpballs froths himself right into a heart attack. Blech.
February 21st, 2008 at 3:57 pmMcCain and Limbaugh were on the same side mocking teenage Chelsea Clinton’s appearance in public in the 1990’s.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:00 pmMcCain knows that his chance of getting elected does not lie with emnity airwaves, it is the moderates and the independent that caused McCains Phoenix like rise after the first crash and burn.
And now Limbaugh thinks theym who helped cause his demise, will slink back to them for doing the same thing the Times has?
LMAO
February 21st, 2008 at 4:02 pmI love it when Republicans eat their own.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:04 pmHand them some more ketchup.
Come on folks, apparently Limburger misplaced his drugs. Not to worry, little Cindy will be glad to share, they cost her nothing, so I am sure there are plenty to go around. The fat, pasty, toad has nothing to live for except his dimwitted repug audience. After the show they will all head over to the family reunion to look for that next wife.

Fixed it for you.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:04 pmRush Limbaugh – Official Commentator for the Reich Wing Republican Nazi Party.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:06 pmFinally, the right-wing radio nutjobs found a reason to back McCain. He has been selling out to law breaking mega-corporations for sex and money. He really is a Republican after all.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:08 pmLet’s see if I have this straight. The New York Times runs a story on an old lobbying/conflict of interest/possibly sex scandal concerning McCain — fueled by conservative sources such as Drudge and former McCain staffers.
Rush is playing the “be afraid — be very afraid” card to McCain, the message being “these are LIBERALS out to get you, and for you to be safe, you must become one of us!”
There was a time when I wouldn’t believe that McCain would be dumb enough to fall for that. However, in light of his recent whoring to the right in order to gain acceptance that he doesn’t need, I’ll believe anything.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:08 pmWith friends like this, who needs enemies?
Rush – A fat, bloated, drug addict, who takes “Special (Sex) Vacations” in the Domincan Republic with a vail of someone else’s Viagra.
Hey Rush, what does “little boy meat” taste like?
Nice crowd to hang with McInsane
Buck Fush
February 21st, 2008 at 4:12 pmOnly we, emnity air, can hate McCain for being a liberal, because hes a Conservative like us!!
I think radical radio has drank too much of its own Orwellian kool-aid. They dont even make sense anymore
February 21st, 2008 at 4:13 pmLimbaugh should love McCain. After all McCain has a special affection for drug addicts who get busted for perscriptions drugs just like his wife Cindy. With McCain as President Rush could get all the illegal perscriptions he wants and never be prosecuted. Cindy never went to jail.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:15 pm“It’s as predictable as Ted Kennedy finding a bar at happy hour”
— said the addict Rush Limbaugh. Typical Repuke hypocracy.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:16 pmActually, Rush had predicted that the liberal media was selecting McCain for his eventual undoing. Romney was just too clean and too competent to slander, so the liberal media steered everyone towards people on whom they had dirt.
Today, Rush got to say that “I told you so….”
The only thing that Rush left out was that Michelle Obama’s hatred of America was getting too much play in the press, so this story was inserted to divert attention away from it.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:16 pmIs Rush mad at the NYT’s for releasing this story, or is he mad at Drudge?
February 21st, 2008 at 4:16 pmLet’s see if I have this straight. The New York Times runs a story on an old lobbying/conflict of interest/possibly sex scandal concerning McCain — fueled by conservative sources such as Drudge and former McCain staffers.
Comment by missmolly — February 21, 2008 @ 4:08 pm
Drudge didn’t fuel it, missmolly, he alluded to the existence of the story and the fact that McCain was urging the NYT to spike it. I have read the article; it seems like every allegation in there is second hand, unsourced and 8 years old. I would be very surprised if this story had any legs unless there is more forthcoming.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:18 pmStupid Comment by Jason M. Hendler
Full of Sh!t as usual there J M Hitler
February 21st, 2008 at 4:18 pmI did a search for Rush’s claim “What have I always said that today is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt? It is this: If you let the media make you, you are subjecting yourself to the media being able to destroy you. ”
Can’t seem to locate the fat tub of goo saying it before this time.
Hendler, you seem to enjoy that paper rustler, could you find where he said this so you can prove him right?
And if you can’t, would you be open to the idea that Rush is nothing more than an alarmist entertainer.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:19 pmYou forgot to mention that GEORGE BUSH never went to jail for his illegal purchase and repeated use of Cocaine through the age of 40, and possibly beyond.

Hm! Whether deliberate or not, it does take attention away from her ill advised comments….probably a coincidence though, they have been sitting on this “story” (still can’t find any news in it) for months, they were afraid a rival was going to “break” it.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:21 pmgood golly, where was your outrage against Bush when he was cutting lines and shirking his duties for his military service?

Rush doesn’t pass the smell test. (In more ways than one). I expect the reincarnated lizard, Newt, to appear soon as a ’save the day’ option for McOld. Of course, Newt will suck the oxygen out of any room, and considering the Maverick’s age, well…
February 21st, 2008 at 4:21 pmYeah, the NYT was a very big part of the “librul media” when they were running Judy Miller’s bullshit articles cheerleading for Bush’s War, weren’t they…?
Oh, but that was DIFFERENT, wasn’t it?
/sarc off
February 21st, 2008 at 4:22 pmOR…
It’s as predictable as Rush finding a stragler OxyCotin pill that fell behind his toilet?

She doesn’t hate America. She hates racism, you racist scumbag.
Keep it up bigot. Your blatant racism will be the last nail in the coffin of the Republican party.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:23 pmWhy does Limbaugh hate Bill Kristol?
February 21st, 2008 at 4:25 pmBush served. That’s a good one. Could you provide some evidence to that? Because there’s a $10,000 reward out there for anyone that can place GWBush in the Alabama National Guard when he said he was there. No takers for going on 8 years now.
Bush was AWOL so he didn’t fufill his military obligation.
Bush served. Funny.

Bush signed up for a 6 year tour and bailed after 4. He did not keep his promise to America.
As for McCain, the swift boaters said he helped the enemy, and if the swift boaters said it, its true, right?
February 21st, 2008 at 4:27 pmBush served…???
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
Oh yeah, right.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:27 pmDid Michelle Obama say she hated America Mr. Hendler? Or are you spreading a lie? hmmmmmmmmmm.
I thought you were better than that. Thanks for opening my eyes and seeing you aren’t.

BTW, her explanation of her remarks made no mention of race, but of the change Barrack has brought to the political process.

I don’t get what she said that was so awful, although it was badly phrased. Maybe you could explain why “I’ve never been so proud…” is such a gaffe, other than how it’s given creeps like Michelle Malikin an opening to attack her.

Classic. According to Hendler, Republicans are so stupid that they allowed the liberal media to select their candidate for them, rather than voting him in as their candidate.

Comment by gummitch — February 21, 2008 @ 4:33 pm
Because she didn’t say that. She said “This is the first time in my adult life I have been proud of my country” – big difference.
Even assuming her comment DID pertain to race, which she has never said and I do not believe, was she not proud when we got our first black Secretary of State? Or FEMALE black Sec. of State? For that matter, wasn’t she proud of her country when her husband was elected to the US Senate?
I actually understand what she is saying, but saying it the way she did was an unnecessary screw up, and I am a big Obama supporter.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:40 pm“It’s as predictable as Ted Kennedy finding a bar at happy hour,â€
Thats so true.
No wonder Rush is one of the most powerful people in this country.
I’m glad to know a rich black woman like Michelle Obama doesn’t hate her country anymore.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:40 pmI don’t get what she said that was so awful,
Comment by gummitch
Because everyone knows what she was talking about. 99% of American history has been pure hell for black women. An African-American being elected president is the best thing that has ever happened to people like herself, and for our country.
The racists are afraid that most of the country is becoming enlightened, and they will be left behind to wallow in their bigotry alone.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:40 pmJK, you saying Drudge is wrong? Are you saying there is no truth to any part of it as well?

February 21st, 2008 at 4:41 pmMcCain is cornered now and he will be a very weak candidate.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:42 pmHe will be spending a good percentage of his time trying to look clean and to protect his image.
A candidate like that will not win.
He can talk all day about bombing this country or that country…his character is questioned.
Had this story been published two months earlier,McCain will not be the front runner now. He might be a history.
It is not enough for a candidate to think that he is the greatest, the most honest and the smarter…It is up to people to judge him..and that’s where McCain has problem now.
You forgot to mention that Obama never went to jail for his admitted illegal purchase and repeated use of Cocaine through the age of 20, and possibly beyond.

Yeah, Gigi is right; it’s much worse for someone to admit that they used cocaine when they were younger than to dodge the question with a casual dismissal, oh, like this:
Bush refused to discuss his younger years for fear of sending “a signal to children that whatever I may have done is okay.”
We see the point Gigi is making.
(The problem is, she’s making the point with her mashed potatoes.
I told you not to play with your food, Gigi!)

What you don’t realize is how many of us have been embarassed by Reagan, Bush 1 and 2 and for allowing the Rethugs in congress to persecute Clinton without organizing protests against their behavior. We all will be “really proud” as Michelle said when this long dark era is finally over.

February 21st, 2008 at 4:53 pmI see some of the 19 %ers are here – it’s a wonder they had enough functioning brain cells to even log in
February 21st, 2008 at 4:53 pmJK, so there is nothing to the possibility of favoritism to this lobbyist and her causes by McCain. None.
Let’s focus on that. I don’t care if they were romantically involved. It doesn’t matter to me. What matters is how my tax dollars are allocated and if something went on that is not above the table then I want that out in the open.
It makes no difference to me what side of the aisle the accused is on. Wouldn’t you agree with that? Wouldn’t you want to know if there is any truth to this part or not.
February 21st, 2008 at 4:53 pmMan, the trolls have nothing to work with.

February 21st, 2008 at 4:57 pmWhen exactly did Obama serve in the military?
Bush served.
McCain served.
Obama gave speaches.
Comment by good_golly — February 21, 2008 @ 4:23 pm
Are you implying that Obama is inadequate to serve as president because he has no military experience? Or are you just trying to deflect attention from hellinabucket’s point about the way Bush handled his military service?
Bush skated into the Guard to avoid getting sent to Vietnam. And then reneged on his 6-year contract to the government. To compare Bush’s service to McCain’s is laughable.
I served in the military, too — in the U.S. Navy. I was in for six years, most of which was reserve duty (one weekend a month, two weeks a year). I was never in any physical danger, and the farthest I ever had to serve away from “home” was on the other side of this country. My service was very similar to Dubya’s (with one critical difference — I DID attend all my drills until my six years was up). However, I would NEVER equate what I did with the service of somebody who actually went to a war zone and got shot at.
That said — I believe that military service is pretty irrelevant in this election. First — Bush isn’t running. Second — Bush beat Kerry (who actually DID go to Vietnam and get shot at) in 2004, showing that Americans really aren’t swayed by war records. Third — Even though McCain has some legitimate cred as a former POW, most voters are going to evaluate him based on his record and positions today. Fourth — Obama came of age after the draft. He was never drafted. Is he to be blasted because he never volunteered? If that’s the case, I hope you remember this litmus test in future years when GOP post-baby boomers are running.
Lastly — you appear to be jumping on the bandwagon of “Obama’s speaking ability is a bad thing.” What’s up with that? What’s wrong with being eloquent? After eight years of Bushspeak, I’m kind of looking forward to a president who has a command of the English language.

I’m not too happy to note than rich, fat white Americans hate America far more than Michelle Obama, who merely alluded that she wasn’t proud of the America brought about by the racist, hateful policies of Reagan and Bush. Which over 70% of Aemricans agree with her on, by the way. This country is nothing to be proud of right now, and hasn’t been for at least 7 years. and only because the right wing has done its best to destroy everything good about the USA.

I was gonna say the same for your poll samples
February 21st, 2008 at 5:04 pmI think it is very revealing that conservatives will not repeat Michelle Obama’s quote correctly. She said:
“For the first time in my adult lifetime, I’m really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. And I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction. And just not feeling so alone in my frustration and disappointment I’ve seen people who are hungry to be unified around some basic, common issues and it’s made me proud.â€
———————————————————–
It logically follows that she was proud of her country before, but not REALLY proud. The qualifier “REALLY” is always left out of the argument.
And Rush, it is not unusual for a politician to have a drink. But it is unusual for someone to get their maid to get someone to buy 3,000 Oxycontins from a Denny’s parking lot. You got very preferential treatment to stay out of jail!!!

Unless they radically changed their sampling technique (which no one has claimed) the recent results in line with most other polling organizations lays waste to the troll’s “attack the messenger” strategy. It also says that there was a serious erosion of rightwing support for the Chimperor as conservatives finally recognize that the economy is sliding south and their candidates for president flat suck.

February 21st, 2008 at 5:30 pmfrom Brian Williams NBC anchor re: Rush Limbaugh…
“I think Rush has actually yet to get the credit he is due because his audience for so many years felt they were in the wilderness of this country,†Williams told C-SPAN interviewer Brian Lamb in December 2004.
“I think Rush gave birth to the Fox news channel. I think Rush helped to give birth to a movement. I think he played his part in the [Republican] Contract with America. So I hope he gets his due as a broadcaster.â€
Williams added that when he worked in the White House press room, he would join with his “friend Brit Hume,†now a Fox News anchor, in citing alleged examples of liberal bias by “you members of the perhaps unintentionally liberal media.†[C-SPAN’s Q&A, Dec. 26, 2004]
February 21st, 2008 at 5:32 pmThe republicans accomplished bending the checks and balances in our system of government in favor of the president. They believe it’s ok for the president to ignore laws they passed.
I believe they had the french fries renamed as well so they did something.

The Village People never came out with an official statement on the Swiftboat Liars that I’m aware of.
February 21st, 2008 at 5:44 pmI just took a short walk into right-wing world and I have to say, those people are truly delusional. One site is saying that McCain is leading Obama in national polls! What polls would that be? I sure haven’t seen any of them.
I am also starting to smell a rat on this NYT times story on McCain. I’m wondering if the story isn’t a plant. Look at how it’s rallying the right to McCain’s defense. The McCain people are also using the story as a campaign tactic. Isn’t it possible that this was the design of the story, to drum up sympathy for McCain?

February 21st, 2008 at 6:19 pmI wonder if David Broder and the Unity ‘08 crowd are getting any of this? I doubt it.
According to Fatboy, Republicans “cannot reach across the aisle” because if they compromised, then they might not have everything their way, and as we’ve learned in the wake of the Newt Gingrich’s “Contract on America”, when Republicans are in charge, it’s their way, or the highway.
In reality, over the last decade of Republican “leadership” in Washington, bipartisanship has ceased to exist — unless Democrats simply cave and give in to Republican demands.
But I guess that’s one of the big problems with “conservatives”. In their blighted world view, always insisting on having everything their way is considered a good thing; to grown-ups, it’s considered self-centered and childish.

If he does it before the convention, he might have a better chance of building momentum within the party, cause they’ll all be rowing in the same direction. But he also will alienate many paleo-cons, who see his pandering for what it is.
If he does it after the convention, it will look better with the moderates and independents, making a restive republican voting bloc seem less important in the general scheme.

Is this a nervous twitch, or is it meant to depict a more-permanent myopia?
I guessing the latter…

Difficult to take when you’re hung over, bud? ;)
February 21st, 2008 at 6:57 pmAlways classy, Limbaugh ended his segment by saying that he wasn’t surprised that The New York Times published an unfavorable piece on McCain. “It’s as predictable as Ted Kennedy finding a bar at happy hour,†he said.

All this is intended to distract from Michelle Obama showing she is part of the “Hate America First” crowd.
Is Michelle Obama claiming that you don’t have any real pride in America, unless it is black pride?

Did you think that constant repetition would make this (a) relevant, (b) amusing, or (c) accurate? Or are you really as moronic as you demonstrate with this behavior?

I’ve been known to use a rhetorical question or two once in awhile, also. But I’ll just make my point with it and move on.
I don’t keep posting it and posting it and posting it when everyone ignores me.
That’s just pathetic.
It might be even more pathetic than the point the troll is trying to make.

Hi-larious!
February 21st, 2008 at 7:09 pmLook, on the upside, at least I have started to find things on which I can agree with Hillary Clinton, i.e. that Obama gives good speaches, but has no substance, has never accomplished anything, and would be bad for our Country. I agree with Hillary on that at least. We’ve found common ground.

LOL! Wow! The wingnut racists are so scared of Obama, they are now taking up for Hillary Clinton! I never thought I’d see the day.
Get used to it now. President Barak Obama.
February 21st, 2008 at 7:12 pmObama should take a lesson from Fatass. As Senator Edwards warned, “You can’t make nice with these people.”
Obama errs when he promises to “reach out to Republicans.” The bastards will bite his hand off.
Hillary will fight them tooth and nail and that’s what we must do if the Constitution is to be restored!

No. She is saying that she can not be really proud of the more than 200 years of American history in which a member of her race could not even be considered for president.
Of course, an obvious white supremacist like you is very proud of that fact. You are just scared to death that era is coming to an end.
February 21st, 2008 at 7:19 pmThere seems to be alot of accidents around the Kennedy mafia..
Her clothes just fell off , it was a accident.
I was trying to hit a golf ball i didn’t mean to hit her in the head with my 9 iron.It was a accident!!
Da plane!! da plane!!!
February 21st, 2008 at 7:26 pmIn a packed hearing room on Feb 19th, under a carved wooden sign reading “Live Free or Die”, the New Hampshire House committee of State-Federal Relations and Veterans’ Affairs heard testimony on Representative Betty Hall’s HR 24, which calls on the U.S. Congress to begin impeachment hearings for George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
Just some more bad news for all the sick reichtard phucks.

Could this post possibly be as glaring a sign of desperation as it appears?

February 21st, 2008 at 8:12 pmOooh John Kerry is going to vote for McCain. You’re scaring us you big brave neocon. But really who gives a rat’s ass what you do loser?
February 21st, 2008 at 8:13 pmI love it. I love it, I love it, I love it.
These Reich-Wing Radio A**holes are going to single-handedly put Obama in the White House come November!

February 21st, 2008 at 9:01 pmLimpbaugh is just trying to make himself seem relevant. It’s sad when people lose any perceived power they might have once wielded, but when the truth gets out…
February 21st, 2008 at 9:12 pmWhy would anyone want that fat draft dodging cowardly pill popping drug addict as a friend?
February 21st, 2008 at 9:17 pmEveryone knows a junkie can’t be trusted. They will steal, lie, back stab, whatever. They are sociopathic.
I consider Rush to be a junkie. Despite making millions with a microphone and a set of headphones, HE TOOK SO MUCH HILLBILLY HEROIN THAT HE LOST HIS HEARING AND GOT BUSTED FOR SENDING HIS HOUSEKEEPER OUT TO SCORE FOR HIM!
He hasn’t appeared to change one bit since then in his speech and mannerisms.
If you watch the video of him going off today you will see that he appears to be a complete nut.
Awesome. Keep slinging that message, JK. In those exact words. You’re doing a service for your country. How does that feel? Actually doing something that will benefit this country?
You’re positively an asset.
February 21st, 2008 at 9:24 pmThe biggest fear all Republicans should have is when the millions of voters who show up for Obama will be pulling the levers for Democrats across the ticket. McCain is the new face of the Bush/GOP/Neocon failure. No wonder Rove bailed.
February 21st, 2008 at 10:58 pm#50 – “You forgot to mention that Obama never went to jail for his admitted illegal purchase and repeated use of Cocaine through the age of 20, and possibly beyond.” Comment by good_golly — February 21, 2008 @ 4:17 pm
Since Pres. Bush already set this precedence, it’s no big deal.
Pres. Bush’s answer to “Did you ever use cocaine?” was “When I was young & stupid, I was young & stupid.”
Translation: Pres. Bush used cocaine!

Yes. Yes, it did.
Again, I’m using the Pres. Bush method: I do NOT have to show proof of evidence. YOU have to prove it DIDN’T happen!
February 22nd, 2008 at 7:04 amIt’s a foregone conclusion that McCain will crawl on his hands and knees to Rush’s studio, and like he did with Bush after the S. Carolina primary, will hug Rush and abjectly ask for his approval.
February 22nd, 2008 at 8:34 amWhen Rush Limbaugh talks about McCain’s Republican “friends”, could he be referring to the South Carolina primary in 2000? This was when a desperate Bush Jr campaign took the McCain’s adoption of two dark-complexioned orphans from Bangladesh, and turned that into a sneaky, phone-based rumor attack claiming that the children were the illegitimate product of McCain’s extramarital affair with a black American woman!
February 22nd, 2008 at 10:49 amAs if that wasn’t enough of a heartless smear, the Bush/Rove team used that same automated phone rumor technique to spread the idea that McCain’s 5 years as a POW in North Vietnam had left him mentally and emotionally unfit to be U.S. President! Good Lord! Is that the patriotic way those dreamland-only-combat-veterans, Bush Jr, Cheney and Rove go about Supporting and Honoring the real Troops and their sacrifices?? With GOP armchair-warrior friends like that, who needs enemies?
I can understand what Rush said. It makes perfect sense. As a southern Democrat who voted for Hillary, I can not in good stead vote for man such as Obama who has no experience and is going to use, more than likely, race as an issue to harm whites. Not a pleasant thought for southerners.
