Second-in-command of hijacked ship blasts Rush Limbaugh’s ‘disgusting’ comments.

shane_murphy.jpg Earlier this month, hate radio host Rush Limbaugh brought attention to the fact that the hijackers of the Maersk Alabama ship were “black Muslim teenagers.” “Now, just imagine the hue and cry had a Republican president ordered the shooting of black teenagers on the high seas,” said Limbaugh, later joking, “If only President Obama had known that the three Somali community organizers are actually young black Muslim teenagers, I’m sure he wouldn’t have given the order to shoot.” Yesterday, Shane Murphy, the second-in-command of the Maersk, returned home and sharply criticized Limbaugh’s remarks:

“It feels great to be home,” Murphy said. “With the exception of Rush Limbaugh who is trying to make this into a race issue. It’s disgusting.”

The president did the right thing. It’s a war. It’s about good versus evil. And what you (Limbaugh) said is evil, that is hate speech. I won’t tolerate it,” Murphy said.

    Boy is he gonna get ripped by El Limbo!


  2. Lora says:

    Good for Shane Murphy. I wonder if Rush is going to try to bully him to retract his words, too.


  3. YoungSloshee says:

    How fitting that those directly involved in this pirate/hostage crisis were confident in our commander-in-chief and were critical of Rush’s hate speech…

    I wonder if Chub Limbaugh will call men like Shane Murphy “cowards” because they were willing to denounce his childish verbal tactics.


  4. And Yet... says:

    And the odds of Murphy walking back those remarks to please Rushbo would be 0/0. What will Rush NoNuts do to counter the honest disgust of this statement? Accuse hometown hero Murphy of be a liberal or an Obamaniac?

    Eat it, Boss Hog, Murphy spoke his mind. You lose.

    If Bush had called this. Rush is right. The liberals would have a duck.

    BWAHAHAHAH! Stick it just right up your own @$$ Limbaugh!

    But don’t get me wrong. Im glad the president call it.

    This is routinely the case. A lot of 9/11 victims’ families were against the PATRIOT act, for example. That didn’t slow down the wingnuts at all in vilifying them.

    .

    jeff2001 Says:

    Nope. Would have been counted as a “win” either way. But you go ahead and tell us about your alternate reality worlds all you want.


  10. ElBruce says:

    The wingnut response on this should be: it’s all Clinton’s fault for pulling out of Somalia prematurely. I’m surprised they haven’t thought of that yet. Of course, they were the ones pushing to get out of Somalia at the time (Blackhawk down!), but inconsistency has never bothered them before.


  11. jeff2001 says:

    And you never blamed Bush for 9-11. Im sure. Bruce.


  12. RealityCheck says:

    I won’t tolerate it,” Murphy said.

    Well…too bad there isn’t a dang thing old Murphy Brown can do about it now is there? Hahaha

    The funny part is the military had to wait an extra day…while B.O. decided if he was going to let them rescue the Captain…or let him die by the hands of the muslim pirates?

    I wonder if he had to contact his good buddy…the Saudi King…who he bows to…on if he could let the Seals take his religious buttmates out? Yea…I’m pretty sure that’s what happened.

    Of couse it was Clin-on who weakened our military and intelligence services that led directly to their family members dying…but you progressives rewrite history in your own minds.


  14. ThomHarvick says:

    Well Rush will never go away since some idiots seem to either like him, or want him to run his mouth in hopes of a way to cream him publicly. As far as Murphy is concerned his comment was about as perfect as it could get.

  15. hivanh says:

    What I find interesting is that we have a nation of citizens who “tolerate” Limbaugh (and his scurrilous mouth) every day, and it took a merchant marine…and a survivor…to say “enough”. Maybe someone else will listen, now. The rest of the posters here who would like to blow this up into an issue of race, slime and bigotry should just STFU.


  16. kdgamergirl says:

    actually Bush was warned that Al-Qaeda was planning an attack in the US in regards to 9/11 but then again you’ve never been one for facts.

    President Obama exhausted all other methods before he ordered deadly force if necessary. Something again you apparently didn’t fact check. Not everyone thinks the answer to every problem is violence.

    As for the bow… what’s wrong with one leader showing another mutual respect. That is the custom for Saudi Arabia. He was simply acting respectful. Diplomacy… get used to it.


  17. ElBruce says:

    RealityCheck Says:

    Of couse it was Clin-on…

    I don’t even have to get into that level of how much you’re wrong about everything. I was merely pointing out that you wingnuts always vilify people who are actual victims of real attacks against the U.S. You’re behaving like the political arm of Al-Qaeda.


  18. ElBruce says:

    kdgamergirl Says:

    As for the bow… what’s wrong with one leader showing another mutual respect.

    Actually, he was like a foot taller than those guys. The video clearly shows he was hunching a bit so he could look them in the eye while he was talking to them.

    I don’t really think it’s a good idea for the wingnuts to get into just who has been playing lapdog for the Sauds and how much photographic and documentary evidence we can bring up on it. Just sayin’. Y’all do not want to even go there.


  19. e_to_the_pOTATO BUG says:

    LMAO REALITY CHECK!

    what reality are you checking here. You better reality check your own sources, I’ll let the others destroy your arguement now.


  20. Hoodathunktick says:

    Can I buy tickets to the show where Rush tries to take on Mr. Murphy? Not that he would dare.

    You are a liar. You are a fool and you are a brainwashed moron. We all know that Rush does ALL of your thinking for you but you just look like a moron repeating something this idiotic. Just because you and the rest of the LimBORG are stupid enough to buy it doesnt mean it wont make you look like a fool when you spew such idocy to normal human beings

  23. Eugene atrax robustus Debs says:

    RealityCheck Says:

    You are so stupid and such an unrepentant liar. The funny thing is that Rush told you to think this and you are so stupid you did. What is funny is your ignorance and lack of decency. It is clear that independent thought, in fact higher brain function of any sort, will forever be far beyond any hope of your worthless brain. You are a fool. Any decent American would be disgusted by your ignorance


  24. Lora says:

    So, Reality Check, do you prefer Dumbya who kissed and held hands with the Saudi king?

    RealityCheck Says:

  25. Hoodathunktick says:

    If Mr Murphy is anything like the merchant sailors I used to work with, Rush had better shut his mouth about calling him out. And judging from the initial statement, things haven’t changed.


  26. Wiz says:

    If this guy was a Republican pol or Fox Newser he would have been apologizing by now. If he had said something Republicans liked he could be the next Joe the Plumber. Or maybe Rush will go after this guy for being a racist praising the death of young black muslims. Or maybe Rush will just shutup, but probably not. Lets put it this way, if Rush doesn’t say anything about this guy’s comment Rush could be called a coward, but thats not exactly news either.


  27. Eugene atrax robustus Debs says:

    Reality check. Just go kill yourself. All you do is lie, spread lies, show the world how stupid you are and hurt America with your astonishing stupidity. Take one of those guns you are so proud of into the next room and do the right thing. It would be a shame if you corrupted our gene pool with your ignorance, your stupdity, your soulless gullibility. Your spawn would be a blight on humanity so just go kill yourself and dont even take the CHANCE it could happen


  28. Eugene atrax robustus Debs says:

    By the way RC yes there IS something Shane Murphy can do about it. He can publicly rebuke the drug addicted Pigboy for being such a hatemongering weasel and in fact he DID do that. What a worthless piece of shite you are


  29. mk3872 says:

    Look OUT! The Rotund One will attack him Monday morning and call him Obama’s butt boy. Just wait now for Jesse Watters to track him down!


  30. hanshiro the antlion says:

    Limbaugh is a coward, hurling rocks from the safety of his audio hole.

    Murphy will no doubt be demonized as leftist and subversive and join the ranks of such distinguished Limbaugh enemies as Michael J. Fox, Donovan McNabb and the ACLU who, ironically, came to Limbaugh’s defense over his medical records during the exposure of Limbaugh Oxycontin addiction.

    Limbaugh is pus.

    His listeners are little better.

    His advertisers are much, much lower.

  32. Hoodathunktick says:

    Mr. Murphy, would you please be so kind as to continue your stance and show Mr. I-can’t-be-bothered-with-facts what a real working American thinks of him? Grab your fifteen minutes and make it count.


  33. ElBruce says:

    Hoodathunktick Says:

    Not that he would dare.

    Do not misunderestimate him. Rush is congenitally incapable of not attacking anyone who says anything less than complementary about him. He’ll go there.

    .

    Wiz Says:

    Or maybe Rush will go after this guy for being a racist praising the death of young black muslims.

    You ever notice how if someone involved in a discussion happens to be black, Rush always has to mention it as relevant? Like in real life, I could see him saying “I bought my coffee from a black guy today. It’s really good coffee, must have something to do with the fact it was made by a black guy.”


  34. neoparody says:

    you know lard mouth Eugene Debs the socialist its his freedom to have guns and pass his stupidity onto as many children as he pleases. i can list numerous other freedoms if you like.


  35. Hoodathunktick says:

    ElBruce, much of my history is involved with the merchant marine. They are a proud bunch. And very independent. Rush made a mistake here. And hopefully Mr. Murphy will continue his position.

    Never pick a fight with a sailor.


  36. upside99 says:

    realitycheck wouldn’t know the truth if it bit him in his soft lardy arse.

    He does a quick drive-by once in a while to protect his butt-hole buddy limpdick and thinks he has won the war.

    It must really suck to be a liberal? I mean what exactly are you a believer in except for not being man enough to stand up to aggression. I guess it has a lot to do with the teachers union who for so many years have installed a sense of playing with keeping no scores…or winning doesn’t matter because it might make the other fellow feel bad about himself.

    That is another reason why B.O. (body odor) took so long in letting the Seals do their job. He had to decide not only if his Saudi King would let him attack fellow muslim’s and he also had to worry about looking too mean…to the rest of the muslim nations…in his attempt to look like a lame dictator of his soon to be banana republic?

    Yea…I’m sure that’s it.

  40. neoparody says:

    on topic, i commend this sailor for speaking out against limbaugh. it’s limbaugh’s freedom to run his mouth but its also the freedom of the dissenters to run theirs. and the truth is that the dissenters have the upper hand. rush limbaugh should take his money and run.


  41. neoparody says:

    where do liberals find any time to care about the poor when they spend all their time knocking their living conditions?


  42. Mathazar says:

    Actually, Bush DID have that opportunity to take action, but he dithered and decided to punt the issue to Obama.

    Obama is the one who FINALLY gave the US Navy the order take out these pirates at every circumstance.

    And does dimbulb seriously think that anyone DOESN’T KNOW the Somali pirates are young black Muslims ?


  43. kdgamergirl says:

    Well if you hate Mr. Obama and liberals so very much then why do you insist on coming back here? You know when you log on, you will be reading liberal commentary that obviously you do not agree with. Is your life so boring and pathetic that you have nothing better to do? Or did the right wing websites hate you too so you have to resort to harassing liberals?

    Check with the Sauds? Citation, please.

    And no matter how much you try to twist it around, that was a clear “win.” Presidents get them sometimes. It’s usually a matter of luck – had Murphy been harmed, you’d have a lot more to work with.

    Just to be nice, I provided a really great talking point for wingnuts regarding Somalian piracy further up in this thread. Why don’t you copy/paste that and run off to freepers with it? It’s not that I really want to help you that much, it’s just that your current line of talking points is frankly, just pitiable.

    U.S. Navy SEALs took out some pirates in a daring rescue mission and brought back a brave American alive. There’s just nothing you can do with that.

    Pick your battles, dude.

The fact you are too stupid to even know what liberals think is YOUR problem not ours.

  47. neoparody says:

    rc, i have to disagree. president obama’s decision was swift and in consultation with the command area of responsibility, centcom. if you fault his performance as commander-in-chief in this instance, you certifiably want him to fail. the vice-gripping of obama is old and mistimed.


  48. wiley says:

    Clinton is to blame for 9/11?

    Bush administration officials told former Sens. Gary Hart, D-Colo., and Warren Rudman, R-N.H., that they preferred instead to put aside the recommendations issued in the January report by the U.S. Commission on National Security/21st Century. Instead, the White House announced in May that it would have Vice President Dick Cheney study the potential problem of domestic terrorism — which the bipartisan group had already spent two and a half years studying — while assigning responsibility for dealing with the issue to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, headed by former Bush campaign manager Joe Allbaugh.

    The Hart-Rudman Commission had specifically recommended that the issue of terrorism was such a threat it needed far more than FEMA’s attention.

    Before the White House decided to go in its own direction, Congress seemed to be taking the commission’s suggestions seriously, according to Hart and Rudman. “Frankly, the White House shut it down,” Hart says. “The president said ‘Please wait, we’re going to turn this over to the vice president. We believe FEMA is competent to coordinate this effort.’ And so Congress moved on to other things, like tax cuts and the issue of the day.”

  72. pbeeg says:

    When the World Trade Center was first attacked, the Democratic administration of Bill Clinton found the people that did it, picked them up, tried tem, and put them in jail–all without wrecking the criminal justice system. Within a year.

    In 1998, on reports of Saddam Hussein building weapons of mass destruction, the Clinton administration launched a massive cruise missile attack on Iraq that destroyed Saddam’s programs and capabilities.

    In 1999, alerted by intelligence reports, the Clinton Administration went into high alert for an extended period, which ended in the Millennium Bombing Plot, which was to have involved dozens of hijackings and slamming planes into buildings on New Year’s Eve 1999, to be intercepted and foiled.

    And the ‘tax and spend Democrat’ Clinton Administration balanced the federal budget and, in 1999, showed a timetable whereby the national debt could in fact be paid off by mid-century.

    OTOH:

    The perpetrators of the second attack on the WTC, specifically Osama Bin Laden, has not been arrested or captured, nor has the organization been neutralized.

    During the invasion of Iraq, 90,000 tons of high explosives were uncovered at Al-Qaqaa. It was left unguarded, and became a major source of explosives for IED’s that caused most of the American casualties in Iraq. Bt the OilMinistry was heavily guarded.

    The Bush Administration’s favorite inteligence source, Ahmed Chalabi, turned out to be a paid agent of the Iranian government. Even after this was discovered, they continued to pay him millions of dollars. While the fictional Iraqi nuclear program was trumpeted about, Dr. AQ Khan, considered the father of Pakistan’s nuclear program was found to be selling nuclear secrets on the black market. Nothing was done about this.

    The second 2001 terrorist attack, the anthrax letter attacks, were not solved and were not even being worked on until it became apparent that the Republicans were going to lose the 2008 election. Then the attacks were hastily blamed on a scientist who had conveniently committed suicide and the case was rapidly declared closed.

    And the ‘party of fiscal responsibility’ Bush Administration took budget surpluses and turned them into record deficits, increased the government at record rates, and managed to give the nation two devastating recessions in one presidential term.

    Hey realitycheck,

    Take a look at how your BFF BushCo almost destroyed the US military that was built over 200 years in less than 8 years.

    (Multiple tours, defunding the VA, lowering enlistment standards, stop loss [i.e. backdoor draft] wasting lives in Iraq for no reason, destroying the us integrity and endangering our soldiers by ignoring the Geneva Convention by condoning torture)

    Just a start, but should provide some points for you to comment on (Unless the rusher hasn’t provided the talking points for these issues to all you ditto butt-heads.)

    Total projection from an insecure right winger who looks at Rush Limbaugh as it’s father figure. These people have very little ego strength and need to look towards people like Rush to tell them what to think and how to act. How sad that is.

    frankly, i’m happy that a guy with a funny name can become president. because now such an unusual name is seen as indicative of heritage. and that helps other people who aren’t born john smith. forget the “b.o” crap. the country passed the national test of strength to see beyond superficiality and see president obama for the intelligent man and devoted husband and father that he is. simply one way of looking at it.

    Perhaps if you believe Rush is some kind of prophet. The fact is that piracy did not begin after Obamas inauguration.

    Rush cannot be ‘right’ and the truth here is that you agree with Rushs opinion which makes his opinion, to those that agree with it ‘right’ [in the subjective sense] it does not, however, make what he said true in the objective sense.

    I can imagine the immediate hue and cry of Rusty Limbaugh if it was a Democratic President who was frozen in his seat, with Pet Goat in hand, on 9/11.


  90. neoparody says:

    hey jeff, you’re going along with this self-pitying “what if …” charade. what if bush made the same decision president obama made? who cares? the point is that the current cinc was regularly briefed, engaged and acted swiftly on a certain request. the military’s performance is most important, not hierarchial dillydallying. i suspect that the main reason such a routine good decision is being amplified is that the republicans have spent so much time fear-mongering that democrats can’t deliver on national security. so even the best decision of all time when coming from a democrat receives immense scrutiny.


  91. P.D. says:

    Is there anyone or any group that Limbaugh hasn’t insulted? Lord knows, he hates minorities, finds nothing but contempt for women, makes light of Micheal J Fox’s medical condition. My God. I really think Limbaugh is the most unhappiest egomaniac on the planet.

  97. KayInMaine says:

    Way to go Shane Murphy! You are exactly right!

    The difference between the way President Obama handled this situation to what George Bush would have done is very simple: George would have killed 3 UNARMED YOUNG BLACK MUSLIMS and then he would have bombed Somali into oblivion just to impress the KKK in America! What President Obama did is come to the defense OF AN UNARMED AMERICAN CAPTAIN OF A U.S. SHIP who was being held hostage by 3 ARMED MEN. Total difference.

    But I thought you right wing ninnies said for 8 years under George Bush that all Americans need to love & support the president to show their patriotism and how much they love America? What does this mean now that you won’t support President Obama? Does it mean you hate America, you’re a traitor, and you have zero patriotism in your heart?

    One little detail overlooked in this is that Mr. Sean Murphy was the acting CO during this crisis, was on site for all of it and acted in a very professional manner. And from the sound of it is very impressed with the professionalism exhibited by the US response.

    Can someone please come up with a decent answer as to why Limbaugh should be listened to at all? He has no government service credentials, has never served in the military and has spent his entire life talking on the radio. So just why is his opinion worth more than a bucket of warm spit?


  121. P.D. says:

  123. P.D. says:

    Hood@120, I think Rush’s audience numbers are inflated. He has been preaching to the same chior for 2 decades. I guess his listeners are as hateful and lonely as he is himself.

    Maybe this Sailor coming out against Limbaugh will resonate with his listeners better than a pundit, entertainer or politician saying something negative about The Fat Bouncing Man.

    BTW: when is Sean Hannity going to be waterboarded for charity (and “the troop’s families” according to Hannity) ?

    Do you not have anything better to do? I would imagine going to a right wing website and discussing issues with like-minded people would be a more productive use of time yet you insist on coming here to pick a fight. It’s pathetic.

    Not to mention conservatives possess a much higher white matter to gray matter ratio, making them much more prone to pathological fabrication….and they are whinier babies:

    Remember the whiny, insecure kid in nursery school, the one who always thought everyone was out to get him, and was always running to the teacher with complaints? Chances are he grew up to be a conservative. At least, he did if he was one of 95 kids from the Berkeley area that social scientists have been tracking for the last 20 years. The confident, resilient, self-reliant kids mostly grew up to be liberals.

    No wonder they’re throwing tea-party-tantrums these days, it’s in their genes…

    Here is the link to the ABC news story about teaching gay stuff to kindergartners

    I am not saying that gay is bad, I am not a Christian, honestly I do not care waht to adults do in their privacy

    What I object to is that the gay agenda, where every tv show has to have a gay character and look at MTV which pushes the gay and bisexual lifestyle with everyone of their shows.

    I stopped watching tv b/c I just dont want to hear from the gay agenda. What is crazy is that the gay mafia has a team of liars I mean lawyers who sue people who are religious that dont approve of marrying gays and then take them to court. They are systematically stealing the right to freedom of religion
    I dont care really but they are nuts

    I mean just leave the kids alone if you want to be gay, fine, I dont care dudes and dudettes, but since gays cant reproduce they naturally want to target kids

    I say no, lets not teach gay stuff to kindergartners

    And for anyone that doesnt think I am a genius, that’s b/c you are not genius enough to recognize the brilliance of me

    How little you understand those you perceive to be your “enemies.” You erroneously say we “worship” these members of Congress. None of us chose either Nancy Pelosi or harry reid top be their respective party leaders in either House. The Democrats ion Congress did that, and without regard for our wishes. I wrote to my own congressman urging him not to support Pelosi for Speaker because of her refusal to impeach Bush. He didn’t listen to me. As I am a New Yorker, neither Frank nor Kennedy represent me, nor do I have any say in their election. Good luck to them both. As for “Clit-on”, no matter which one you are referring to, neither represents me in Congress, either. And since none of us profess to be perfect, we accept imperfections in the character of our representation in Congress, to a certain extent. We did say William Jefferson should resign. We did say Blago should resign. We do not blindly support each and every Democrat just because they are a Democrat. If you honestly read most of the posts on threads of that nature, we often tell these guys to quit before you get tossed out. We don’t condone corruption the way the right wing does.

    You are in the presence of people who love their country. The country is in its present position because of people like you who were running it. The really neat thing about the good old USA is we can pick up and get started again, and we have the history to prove it. We are far better off with less people of your persuasion. The world would be a lot better off with less people like you. You will get no resonance here with your pontifications.

We understand that your daddy threatened you with the “meat hook” and all so, just let go of the hate – it’s OK. It wasn’t you – it was him. You are special so don’t let anyone tell you differently.

  250. Wayne Ant Schneider says:

    brothabill,

    What you are forgetting is that once health care costs are brought down, projected government deficits will drop. This will inspire more confidence in the markets (preferably through investments in green technologies), which will bring in more revenues to the treasury, which will reduce borrowing, which will keep revolving into good things.

    The role of capitalism will necessarily be diminished over time. You cannot have a functioning, healthy society when each and every thing has a price on it because someone, somewhere, has to make a profit on it. You should be more open-minded to systems other than capitalism.

    The way I look at this whole financial crisis is this. Someone, or a few someones, will be at the top of all this inflated wealth upon which the system is resting right now. If things were worth the value they are assessed at, these people would stand to make, collectively, trillions of dollars. Many of them are already multi-billionaires even without this inflated wealth. I say fix the problem in such as way that the people at the top of the income ladder get the least out of all this. They don’t need it, and if they are suddenly worth a few billion dollars less on paper, I won’t shed a tear for them. They’ll still have a roof over their head, clothes on their back, and food on their table. And that’s more than some people have because of this crisis.

    You retards cant see a house of cards collapsing can you? The USA with is 50 trillion plus debt cant print enough money to keep it up. Obama’s plans will turn the USA into the economy of a Banana Republic. Yet, people still say give me free stuff, give me free healthcare lol

    Yet they dont have any skills themselves and do nothing all their live long days.

  269. laworder says:

    For all you right-wing Republican apologists for Rush Limbaugh, here are some facts about President Clinton and his administration regarding terrorism:

    We all know the Bush Administration’s record on terrorism, let’s compare it with President Clinton:

    President Clinton actions and initiatives:

    1. Developed this nation’s first anti-terrorism policy, and appointed the first national coordinator of anti-terrorist efforts.

    2. The Clinton Administration stopped cold the Al Qaeda millennium hijacking and bombing plots.

    3. President Clinton tried to kill Osama bin Laden and disrupt Al Qaeda through preemptive strikes (efforts denounced by the G.O.P.).

    4. The Department of Justice under the Clinton Administration brought the perpetrators of the first World Trade Center bombing and CIA killings to justice.

    5. President Clinton did not blame the Administration of George H.W. Bush for the first World Trade Center bombing, even though it occurred 38 days after Bush left office. However, he worked indefatigably, even obsessively – and successfully – to stop further terrorist attacks from occurring in the United States.

    6. President Clinton named the Hart-Rudman commission to report on the nature of terrorist threats and major steps to be taken to combat terrorism.

    7. President Clinton sent legislation to Congress to tighten airport security. (Remember, this is before 911) The legislation was defeated by the Republicans because of opposition from the airlines.

    8. President Clinton sent legislation to Congress to allow for better tracking of terrorist funding. It was defeated by the Republicans in the Senate because of opposition from banking interests.

    9. President Clinton sent legislation to Congress to add tagents to explosives, to allow for better tracking of explosives used by terrorists. It was defeated by the Republicans because of opposition from the NRA.

    10. President Clinton increased the budget of the FBI for counterterrorism by over 350%, and tripled overall funding for counterterrorism.

    11. President Clinton created a national stockpile of drugs and vaccines including 40 million doses of smallpox vaccine.

    12. Robert Oakley, President Reagan’s Ambassador for Counterterrorism stated of the Clinton Administration and their efforts against terrorism, “Overall, I give them very high marks” and “The only major criticism I have is the obsession with Osama bin Laden.”

    13. Barton Gellman in the Washington Post put it best, “By any measure available, President Clinton left office having given greater priority to terrorism than any president before him” and was the “first administration to undertake a systematic anti-terrorist effort.”

    When people say, “Elections don’t matter” they should remember the fact that 9-11 did not occur on President Clinton’s watch, and it had nothing to do with being lucky, it had everything to do with a president who recognized threats to our National Security and prevented attacks from occurring. President Clinton recognized the danger of Al Qaeda and was proactive rather than reactive.

    When a president recognizes a threat to our national security and is proactive in dealing with such a threat, the president can work with and push intelligence and law enforcement agencies to cooperate, in order to a prevent a potential national tragedy such as the 2000 millennium hijacking and bombing plots.

    There you have it right-wingers, now get back to My Pet Goat!

    The hatred for everything Bill Clinton acutally played into the 9/11 terrorist’s hands.

    Condoleeza Rice ignored Richard Clark’s best efforts to make sure the transition to the next administration would share the same due dillegence over Bin Laden.

    Why did they ignore Richard Clark? Hatred of Bill Clinton. Their personal, petty, hatred weakened America.

    O/T Special Bulletin: Troll watch:

    Since being on TP, I learned about wonderful trolls. I have been keeping a list of those however; I don’t want to post it just yet without community involvement. I feel that those new to the sight should be aware of our little “friends.” Post the IDs to discussions and I’ll keep these user IDs in my “running list.” How? Post a troll ID in a discussion where you see me post to my attention (rightwing-leftwing.) I always pop back in to check how the thread is going because it’s fun. To ID a troll on your own, here are some tips, etc.:

    Many trolls are characterized by having an excess of free time and are probably lonely and seeking attention, Trolls often see their own self-worth in relation to how much reaction they can provoke.

    Definition of a troll: Often targets new users, who are more likely to take offense, hence the term “troll” (as in “trolling” for newbies).

    Some different types of Trolls:
    Spamming troll: Posts too many newsgroups with the same verbatim post.
    Kooks: A regular member of a forum who habitually drops comments that have no basis on the topic or even in reality.
    Flamer: Does not contribute to the group except by making inflammatory comments.
    Hit-and-runner: Stops in, make one or two posts and moves on.
    Psycho trolls: Has a psychological need to feel good by making others feel bad.

  281. Jeremy in Denver says:

    The biggest problem with the USA is 8 years of unfettered Bushonomics that followed 12 years of hard core Reaganomics (wow, that’s recognized as a word by Firefox!) and 8 years of soft-core Reaganomics through Clinton. While we had a bubble in 94 to 2000, we were still suffering at the hands of the Republicans, who were merely checked by Clinton.

    Rush Limbaugh is an agent of that earlier time. From his start through the Bush years, he was the rallier of the Republican Movement, screaming invectives at whole classes of people — poor people, blacks, foreigners, etc. Hopefully he’s now the voice of a bygone era, and the more he bloviates, the less he’ll matter. If the people have indeed had their fill of Reaganomics, then he’s on his last legs, and soon, the only people who will still listen to him will be the 20% that supported Bush until the bitter end.

    The less popular he becomes, the less he’ll feel pressure to moderate out. The less moderating out he does, the more he’ll spout crap like this, and the more likely he is to insult an American Hero and further marginalize himself and the movement he represents. The more marginalized he becomes, the more extreme he will become, and the more extreme he becomes, the more marginalized he will become. He’ll achieve a singularity of stupidity and irrelevancy all on his own. ;)

    Seriously, some of you should go back and read the stupid, reflexive crap you post BACK to them, it’s EMBARRASSING AND DEGRADING TO TP ON THE WHOLE.

    Which President repeatedly said the US doesn’t torture, and now needs his ‘distinguished’ ex VP on a worldwind tour ADMITTING that sure, we lied about torturing, but that’s only because it was illegal and immoral; think of all the good it did, that I can’t show you because we classified all this stuff that might have been used to prosecute us for criminal malfeasance; but who are you gonna believe? I’M THE GUY WHO SAID THE WAR WOULD BE OVER IN WEEKS, BE PAID FOR WITH IRAQI OIL MONEY THAT WE WERE SUPPOSED TO STEAL, AND THAT THE WHOLE INVASION/OCCUPATION THING WOULD BE MORE LIKE SWEEPSWEEK, WHAT WITH ‘IMBEDDED’ JOURNALISTS CAPTURING ALL THE GOOD, CLEAN AMERICAN FUN!

    Didn’t anyone hear me when I said the insurgency was in its last throes, if you will? Are you telling me no one believes me when I shriek about Obama harming the nation?’

    Rewriting history is your party’s game; you saps own BushCo and all the shit they brought; enjoy the hearings on this and all the other crimes they pulled off.

    You’ve just condensed the idiocy of the far Right in one convoluted, specious sentence.

    What is it like to be an amorphous barge floating on the sea of ignorance?

    Kwasimoto predicted the end of the world? And all this time I thought he was a fictional hunchback bell-ringer in the cathedral.

    brothabill, you are a a sad case. If you were smart, you’d use the Google right now, and let the Wikipedia educate you. That’s about your speed…


  315. Mycelium says:

    brothabill,

    Detroit native?

    Where’d you do high school?


  316. Vituperation Toxicity says:

    We probably shouldn’t taunt the mentally ill.


  317. rightwing-leftwing says:

    brothabill, “republicans hate facts” stated in #347 exactly what I meant. I accept your apology for misunderstanding me in advance.

    I have much love in my heart for humankind. I work with many cultures and have much compassion for each. I do, however; have NO tolerance for ignorance and arrogance which is what YOU are projecting here. The sorry state of our country has been born of many things – most of which is what I have intolerance for as stated before – ignorance and arrogance. It’s hard to combat ignorance and arrogance because it’s deep rooted in those individuals. What’s a divided country to do? Well, I will pray to the great spaghetti monster for these transgressions to end. That is what I’ll do.


  318. spring heeled jack says:

    Hey, brotha! Hey, mate! Still drinking? Still Irish? I see you took the pamphlet the Krishnas hand out at the aeroport. Damn, you’re one big fat flake! According to your ridiculous character sketch–you’re American, mate! And you’re spamming a liberal blog all Saturday night into Sunday, instead of actually going out and doing something meaningful. I guess that makes you one of those lazy Ameicans you’re drooling about, huh? The safety and security of the keyboard–your shield, along with a Budweiser tall boy.


  319. spring heeled jack says:

    How did you punk us if no one believed you?


  320. spring heeled jack says:

    Brotha, you just blew an entire spring wkend, antogonizing strangers on the internet.

    Joke’s on you, mate.


  321. rightwing-leftwing says:

    brothabill, I need some medical care. Which hospital are you currently working at? I would only trust you to do the work necessary. Thank you!


  322. rightwing-leftwing says:

    Oh, by the way brothabill. You forgot to ask what each of us do for work. Funny how you assume that we don’t work. Oh well. By the way, don’t accidentally drink from those shiny bed pans because that’s pee not cool aid. Dum bass MTV watching punk.


  323. kdgamergirl says:

    he’s clearly out of his mind. Brotha if you hate the USA so much GTFO.


  324. rightwing-leftwing says:

    Hello brothabill:

    I know you wouldn’t give out your place of work – I was trying to “punk” you. You are far too smart for that! I don’t hate you; it’s just fun to throw crap around at people who come off crazy like you on the internet. I’m just having fun like you!

    I don’t need your medical advice but thanks for the gracious offer for it.

    Good job cutting your cable off – it’s crap anyway and a waste of money.

    I wouldn’t dare water board you – that’s a crime and it’s down right mean!

    And finally, I’m a retired software developer from 2003. I got out when the good in it was gone. I took a buy-out of 100k from the suckers that employed me for the same amount per year for 8-years. I put the cash into real estate and sold off all the crap in 2004 and 2005. So, here I am, living on 10 acres of land with very few neighbors enjoying the nature around me. Life is good!

    Thanks for asking!


  325. Pennsylvanianne says:

    Glad to see Murphy criticizing Limbaugh for his hateful, critical diatribe. Did Limbaugh want Obama not to defend his countrymen? Then Limbaugh would really have criticized Obama. Strange how people idolize Limbaugh, a war-evading, hate-spewing, pill-popping, Viagra-using, Dominican Republic-visiting (and for what? Hmmmm …) glutton who can’t sustain a marriage and has never had a child. What of value has Limbaugh really done in his life? As far as I can see, nothing.


  326. Vituperation Toxicity says:

    Too cute. The troll gets caught out on his stupidity, but now turns it around saying he punked us.

    Adorable!

    Stop sipping from the Foleys, moron.


  327. vsmith says:

    Rush was right. As usual. People just don’t want to hear the truth. They were black teenagers. Were they not? Just because they were black, does that mean they get off the hook? A get-out-of-jail-free card. That’s how a racist like Obama got elected by a bunch of pathetic guilt laden white progressives. The election of Obama was racist all the way. That’s the irony of the situation. He clearly isn’t qualified for the gig and he is way over his head. We are so screwed by this naive fool.


  328. dbadass says:

    vsmith:
    Can you show me how the adjustable bed hawking druggie shock jock is usually right or did I mistake the word right for correct?


  329. vsmith says:

    Hey brothabill:

    I enjoy your BS although I disagree that we here in the US will all die a horrible death or whatever the hell you wrote. Our death has been prematurely reported on more occasions than I can recall. If the morons on this site have their way, your wish very well may be granted. We are closer to your wish than we ever have been but the Almighty has delivered us from the final evil in mysterious last second ways. I hope it happens again. My guess is a terrorist attack will be Obama’s undoing. It will show his insane naivety in all its useless glory.

    I wouldn’t bet against us, Brothabill. We’re a pretty industrious lot when challenged.


  330. vsmith says:

    dbadass:

    He WAS wrong about the bed. It sucked. I returned it. All the rest, except immigration, he’s right.


  331. dbadass says:

    So Rush leans left on immigration or are you still playing the right versus correct gambit? If you mean correct please include your evidences.

    Where to begin. Despite the fact that Rush was wrong, as usual, this troll seems inclined to deny reality. This troll says “people do not want to hear the truth”, I think there is some truth in that, which is why they watch Fox News. This troll then plays the Reichwingnut race card, just to make sure he expresses how much he personally hates African Americans. Then this troll trots out the failed campaign mantra that Obama isn’t qualified. He concludes that “we are screwed” and in that he may be correct, assuming the “we” he was referring to is the Reichwingnuts.

    No race card, you coward. Just simply stating a fact. As was Rush. The Obama voters were clearly the racist. They voted for him BECAUSE he was black. The evidence is incontrovertible. I’ll offer Colin Powell as but just one example. I’m for the color blind society that King so desperately pleaded for. We didn’t get it with this election. Instead, a naive anti-US racist fool was elected by gullible white guilt-ridden elitist (That being people like you).

    Now to my favorite issue, Fox News. How one channel can be such a threat to a whole party is beyond incredible. One channel! You guys have all the rest, including PBS & NPR paid for with my overtaxed income, and you’re whining about it. This despite the fact that an independent study clearly showed that it was by far the most balanced network on the air. That is a FACT!! You just make yourselves look even more ignorant (if that’s possible) by railing against the documented most balanced network. Please. Find something else to rail against.


  335. vsmith says:

    dbadass:

    “So Rush leans left on immigration or are you still playing the right versus correct gambit? If you mean correct please include your evidences.”

    No, he leans too far to the cold side of the right. I simply don’t agree with his analysis of the issue. It’s the one issue that will keep the loonies on the left in power. No doubt about it.


  336. Levi the Dungbeetle says:

    vsmith, if the evidence is incontrovertable then it will be easy for you to provide a link to a reputable source that proves Obama was elected because he was black.

    We will wait.


  337. Levi the Dungbeetle says:

    If an independant study showed that Fox News is the most balanced network, it will be easy for you to post a link to that.

    We will wait.



  338. Levi the Dungbeetle says:

    I asked for an unbias source, you provided me with a source which is funded by conservative groups.

    From the wiki….

    The media watchdog group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) has challenged CMPA’s non-partisan claim, based on the argument that much of its funding has come from conservative sources, and that its founder, Dr. S. Robert Lichter, once held a chair in mass communications at the American Enterprise Institute and was a Fox News contributor

    Nice try Reichwingnut but wrong again. Got any actually unbias sources? We will wait.

    That’s too funny. They voted for the intelligent, well educated, kind black man because of his race. But the people who voted for the angry, low intelligence, barely educated gigolo voted for him not because he was white but because he’s qualified?

  343. Scarlett says:

    I agree with Vsmith. Obama was clearly elected because he is black. It was an unfair advantage, and I always thought that McCain should have been allowed to campaign in blackface to even things up. But the libs would have went nuts if he did that. You know how they are. So Obama was able to take unfair advantage by being a black male. One thing white Americans have always loved it’s a black male. And Obama took full advantage of that. It’s really not right. I can only hope that Sarah Barracuda! is the nominee in 012, because there is a woman who is not afraid to slap a few cards down on the table. McCain didn’t have the guts to buck the phony liberal outrage and campaign against Obama in black face, thus evening up the field and giving the white man a fair shot for once…but I bet Sarah would do it.


  344. rightwing-leftwing says:

    Dearest Scarlett to racist,

    I’m white (Caucasian) and I voted for Obama. Your point is very stupid at best. I chose Obama because he spoke with conviction about the problems we have and how he wishes to approach them. He is a leader which is what WE NEED right now – not some neocon punk from Texass or Arizona. The GOP is irrelevant and have lied to America about many, many thing which I will not list here. You need to do some reading of books and independent research before speaking. Also, you probably need to shut off FAUX news and listed to CSPAN to deprogram the lies you have been told and now consider as truth.


  345. Lora says:

    To Scarlett and VSmith,

    If, as you claim, Obama won because he is black, then why didn’t Republican (token) blacks like Michael Steele and Blackwell win respectively in Maryland and Ohio? I, a Caucasian woman married to an Asian, voted for Obama, first, because he was the Democrat candidate. I would have voted for any Democrat after eight years of a disastrous Republican administration. But I had already been impressed with Obama’s intelligence and eloquence.
    Moreover, in terms of education, here was a black candidate (with a white mother who once lived on food stamps) who managed not only to graduate from Columbia University (my own alma mater) but also went on to become the first black editor of the “Harvard Law Review.” On the other hand, there was the white candidate, who came from from a prestigious Navy family yet managed to graduate only fifth from the bottom of his class of over 900. And then I had to worry whether the old white man/cancer survivor’s health would hold up during four or eight years, since his running mate is a total airhead. (The prank call from the phony Sarkosy really did it for me. There were many places in that conversation that a person with half a brain would have picked up on as fishy but not Sarah Barracuda.)


  346. Scarlett says:

    My most was satiric. It never occurred to me that anyone would take it seriously because of the blackface comments. I mean, it’s freaking hysterical, if any of you have a sense of humor? It’s people like you two right above me here who give lefties a bad rep. This is exactly why people say we have no sense of humor. Really, please get a clue okay?


  347. rightwing-leftwing says:

    Hey Scarlett:

    STFU you troll. Have a nice life being an idiot.

    It’s idiots like RW-LW & dstankass…that show the liberals in the true light they live in.

    Hypocrites


  350. rightwing-leftwing says:

    RealityChick,

    You’ve long since proved that you’re a Hypocrite. How old are you? How much have you done in your life time? Probably not mush if you are so susceptible to the crap the GOP has been spewing over teh past 30 years. You and your fellow GOP trolls are irrelevant. Have fun in your GOP minority – feels real good doesn’t it!


  351. drew3rd says:

    Wow, what a seriously goofed up kid. Rush makes a political lampoon of the whole affair and this kid takes it all serious. Goodness help his crew when he’s in command, no sense of humor. In lighter news, Israeli security teams whacked a bunch of pirates trying to take an Italian cruise ship last night. I guess we won’t hear any Jew bashing here. Nah, everyone here loves Israel and the Jews.


  352. rightwing-leftwing says:

    drew3rd: I’m not a Jew basher and I don’t think that’s a good thing to do but, I do understand why the Mid-East is pissed off at us about Israel. The state of Israel, in the Mid-east’s eyes, is like Iran taking one of our states like South Carolina for their use. I think one could understand their angst in this context?


  353. Lora says:

    To Scarlett,

    I normally love sarcasm, but your “blackface” comment was not funny and in bad taste, and I don’t know what a “most” is. I am only familiar with the usage of “most” as an adverb.

    Scarlett Says:

  354. Lora says:

    To Reality Check,
    I have asked you twice about your thoughts on George W. Bush’s holding hands with and kissing the Saudi king. Since you are still trolling here and haven’t disappeared, it’s about time you face the truth and give an answer, or else do go away for good.
