Comments on: Limbaugh on Hispanic mayor of LA: I thought he was either a ’shoe shine guy or a Secret Service agent.’ http://thinkprogress.org/2008/05/05/limbaugh-on-the-mayor-of-la-i-thought-he-was-either-a-shoe-shine-guy-or-a-secret-service-agent/ Fri, 27 Nov 2009 04:45:01 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: HighPlainsJoker http://thinkprogress.org/2008/05/05/limbaugh-on-the-mayor-of-la-i-thought-he-was-either-a-shoe-shine-guy-or-a-secret-service-agent/comment-page-2/#comment-4947192 HighPlainsJoker Tue, 06 May 2008 18:49:58 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/2008/05/05/limbaugh-on-the-mayor-of-la-i-thought-he-was-either-a-shoe-shine-guy-or-a-secret-service-agent/#comment-4947192 Wow, I missed #48. What we need is a definition of hate, it appears. I personally think the comments about Rushie are assinine and have very little value other than some copy-cat response to Rush himself, or for self satisfaction, such as that may be. But, hatered? How do you expect normal people, say Los Angelinos, to respond to Rush's obvious hatefu comment that their Mayor is a shoe shine guy. FIrst, he trashes shoe shine people, who work for a living, then Secret Service agents as if they were the shoe shine guys he has already has denigrated. Your problem is that you have been lisstening to RL so long that hate only goes one what with you, as it does with Rushbo. Listening 16 years says a lot about you. When I started listening to him, it took me two months to decide what he was, and I have changed to the Democratic party partly because of what he stands for, what he is. Even as entertainment, I cannot listen to him anymore. Try it, you'll feel better. Wow, I missed #48.
