EXCLUSIVE AUDIO: Limbaugh Mocks Recession During Speech To Wealthy Right-Wing Donors

cigarLast night, Rush Limbaugh came to Washington, D.C. to address the President’s Club Dinner, a meeting of wealthy donors and supporters of the Heritage Foundation. The audience included Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas, Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), as well as various millionaire trustees of the Heritage Foundation, like Thomas Saunders.

After more or less reprising his radio show routine, Limbaugh went on to brag about his $400 million contract with Clear Channel Communications. As he continued to gloat about his show’s success, Limbaugh mocked the idea that Americans are suffering, noting, “I’ve never had financially a down year” despite the “supposed” recession:

LIMBAUGH: But during all this growth I haven’t lost any audience. I’ve never had financially a down year. There’s supposedly a recession, but we’ve got – what is this May? Back in February we already had 102% of 2008 overbooked for 2009. [applause] So I always believed that if we’re going to have a recession, just don’t participate. [laughter]

Listen here:

Limbaugh is no stranger to belittling the poor and dismissing the economic troubles of others. In March, Limbaugh scoffed at a question on homeless children, asking, “Would somebody tell me the last time you saw a kid sleeping under a bridge?

As Media Matters reported, even Limbaugh’s employer Clear Channel is struggling under the weight of the recession. Already this year, Clear Channel has “shed nearly 3,000 employees, or 12 percent of its workforce.” While Limbaugh jets around the country in his $54 million Gulfstream G550, laughing off the recession, does he even realize that his own bloated contract is contributing to the rising unemployment rate?

    So break the contract and fire his fat ass. I have no sympathy for Clear Channel, but I sure do for their “down-sized” employees. Especially since Limpball continues to “up-size.”

    Way to go Rush…don’t let these leftest idiots intimidate you in preaching you’re beliefs in the Free Market…and it’s success in making America #1 in the world.

    Maybe when some of these morons see the light…we can boot these Socialist out and put them back in the closet where they belong.

    I’m not. I’m a Liberal-Libertarian. It’s primarily the right-wing echo chamber that calls us “Socialists”.


  13. Bobwurst says:

    Actually, I have no problem with socialism. The corporate leaning capitalism we’ve been struggling through is slowly destroying this country and the fools, like realitycheck are too stupid to see they’re slitting their own throats.


  14. tom says:

    There is no god.

    You may be right, Marie. If there were, Bernie Madoff would have been Limpball’s financial advisor and portfolio manager.

  18. Tim Vaculik says:

    Clear Channel would be crazy to dump Rush, he’s the reason they are MAKING money right now!!!


  19. Chessmaster says:

    Rush will get a heart attack someday. I mean, he’s not in great health.


  20. J. Fred Smug says:

    I live in a part of the country where the climate is more forgiving to homeless people who must spend their nights out-of-doors. And yes, Rush, I HAVE seen “a kid sleeping under a bridge.” More times than I care to remember.


  21. Pennsylvanianne says:

    Why should anyone be surprised that Limpballs mocks the recession? After all, the party of GnOPe has just decreed “empathy” to be a dirty word, or at least a “codeword” for something else that’s dirty. The situation is just so funny, as many of these GnOPers also proclaim themselves to be Christian. And wasn’t Christ’s statement to “do unto others as you would have others do unto you” kind of … empathetic? Indeed, a command to be empathetic? But Limpballs hasn’t got it in him to be empathetic.


  22. Doodlebug Shayne says:

    It’s not a fluke, Rush is as big a jerk as we thought. Luckily for him there are idiots like RC and Timmy who are too stupid to know they’re being laughed at by the people they adore.

    Leona Limpballs sez, “Recessions, like taxes, are for the little people.”
    She ended up in jail.


  25. hormiga brava chavez says:

    Lamebaugh is not fooling me. He’s a miserable fool. Anybody that hateful wasn’t hugged enough as a child. He spews too much hatred to be truly happy with himself. Rush is a lonely man and no amount of money is going to save him from himself.
    He’s the face of misery and excess. All the twitching he does reminds me of the tweakers addicted to meth. He’s in bondage to drugs. I wouldn’t want to be him for all the money in the world. Hope all that money is keeping him warm at night.


  26. hormiga brava chavez says:

    Reality Check and Tim Valcunik:

    You trolls are lost fools who worship the face of excess and greed. You’re spineless and incapable of thinking for yourselves so you follow after puffed up Rush eventhough he’s heading for a cliff.


  27. EugeneDebs says:

    RCPunk

    Do you mean as opposed to your informative and kindly post where you called us idiots, morons and Socialists? Stick it up your tarhole PUNK. I know you think that YOU have every right to call us names and be rude to us and WE still have an obligation to treat you with respect but the reason you think that is because you are so staggeringly stupid. Its just this simple. You are a stench in the nostrils of decent people. You have no brain, no soul, no decency and the only good thing you can do for humanity itself is to go kill yourself. The world expects you to do the right thing and the right thing isnt to come to a liberal website for the express purpose of insulting liberals. No the right thing is for you to kill yourself and rid the world of your putrid stench


  28. mk3872 says:

    This puts all of this ignorant hatred squarely on the shoulders of the country’s political party and “think tanks” that refuse to repudiate Rush Limbaugh and have created an entire political message around his 1-line zingers.

    That means the GOP, Heritage Foundation, Club for Growth …

    No let us ask the media to put a microphone in Jim DeMint’s face and ask him, “Do you agree with Rush Limbaugh that there is no recession because Rush Limbaugh is booking advertisers”?


  29. mk3872 says:

    Of course Rush doesn’t see homeless people or the recession.

    How could you when you sit your fat ass in a mansion in Florida and fly your own personal jet around everywhere you go?


  30. Sandoz76 says:

    Heya Reality Check-
    Thanks for stopping by tonight. Quick question: Why exactly is it moronic for people to be concerned about their neighbor’s well-being? Just curious. Was Jesus a moron? Are you interested in having a dialog about this and helping me understand the source of my stupidity?

    Because what I, and I suppose many on this board advocate is not a blanket choking of the Free Market, but rather the elevation of human life and suffering to be at least equal in consideration with markets. Perhaps that has been confusing you.


  31. Purple State says:

    Here’s a better question; not to go into details, but how many people here have been forced to cut back due to the recession?

    I ask this question as a continuation of the “science” debate. Rush is no scientist, so perhaps he doesn’t understand that one data point doesn’t make a full study. Even if he was one case against the recession, I’m pretty sure that we are not a nation of Rush Limbaughs.

    RealityCheck, did you have a good year in comparison to last year? Did your spending habits change? And be honest.


  32. ShadowBoxer says:

    Exactly, mk3872.

    When you live in a bubble, you see what you let in. (Or what is inserted by your minions.)

    I live in Baltimore and the homeless problem is disturbing, to say the least. And, as for the cliche of the homeless living under a bridge, well, those are the lucky ones, that get shelter. Most of the people here just sleep on a steaming manhole for warmth, but then they get wet from the condensation, and catch pneumonia, and end up sick, with no place to get healthcare.

    And the fact that so many are losing jobs adds to the numbers of homeless. No one CHOOSES to be homeless. It’s sick to mock it. But, Limboaheartconstricted is an ass. He was probably mocked in high school and needs to hand it back out to make himself feel better. Swine.


  33. Gregor Samsa says:

    does he even realize that his own bloated contract is contributing to the rising unemployment rate?

    Perhaps he does but, being a good Conservative/Republican, he gives a damn as long as he is doing well.


  34. LibertyLover says:

    “Would somebody tell me the last time you saw a kid sleeping under a bridge?”

    Certainly none of these people, huh? They just don’t look. People are probably starving right outside the windows of the Heritage Foundation Windows and these people would not see them, because they wouldn’t want to.

    Heh, even Disney is having a down year… their revenue is down 46% this year.

    Yes, I think the Republicans certainly have an empathy problem…. or better said… they have no empathy.


  35. ranus69 says:

    Who cares what this racist fat turd says. Rush’s day of reckoning will happen just give it time people.


  36. hormiga brava chavez says:

    Dr. Hussein Matt Says:

    Folks like Rush always think we’re “hating” on them because of all of their money. They fail to see that it’s not about the money, it’s about their selfishness and lack of morals. They just don’t give a damn about anyone but themselves.

    Q: “Are you a crackhead”

    A: I’m less a crackhead than you are a bigotted assclown”

    R (rebuttal): “You are a crackhead!”

    By your logic, you are a biggoted assclown. See?

    First lesson is free. No sweat.

    Rush really is amazing.. after all the crap with his drugs, and the all man weekend/Viagra scandal from his Dominican Republic mini vacation, his hate filled support the right wing fringe. This is the err.. mouthpiece of the newly marginalized Gross Old Perverts Party? One nice thing anyone with any grasp of reality will steer clear of the implosion. Thanks Rush for being you, Loser!!!!!!

    I’m certainly glad that TP continues to catalog these idiots statements, but does anyone really have any genuine outrage left to express anymore when they do what they do best? I mean, what do we expect?


  49. Fool Zero says:

    In March, Limbaugh scoffed at a question on homeless children, asking, “Would somebody tell me the last time you saw a kid sleeping under a bridge?”

    Would somebody tell me the last time Limbaugh cared enough to go check for himself?


  50. questioneverything says:

    If only the fascists like Rush would get their definitions right. Socialism is a system where people pay taxes to get what they all agree they need. Fascism is a system where huge corporations (and their mouthpieces) tell us all what to do for their own profit (and the government goes along). Projection is calling your political opponents that which you are.

    All of these clowns go to projection school–all are fascist mouthpieces.


  51. ShadowBoxer says:

    I think I may have slightly flubbed the logic, but everyone besides RC hopefully gets the point. Kind of rubber-glue angle.

    My bad.


  52. ignatov says:

    These discussions would be more dynamic and fruitful if everyone would stop allowing the trolls to dereail the conversation.

    Don’t let some scumbag show up at a discussion of the odiousness of Rush Limbaugh and turn it into a shouting match about the dangers of socialism.

    Please.


  53. hellinabucket says:

    Ahh the irony of Rush causing the company that gave him his $400 million to go bankrupt.


  54. EugeneDebs says:

    RC You are a liar a fool and a punkass troll. The obvious fact is that you dont know what the word socialist MEANS. That is unsuprising since yo are one of the stupidest pieces of garbage in the entire world. Which brings me back to my point which is just go kill yourself. You are a stench. I can smell your soul rotting right through the moniter screen. Kill yourself to make the world a better place and to save actual humans the torture of having to deal with your monumental stupidity and gross lack of basic decency. The time is ripe just go kill yourself

  57. Sandoz76 says:

    #54- You are absolutely right, but it defies my own understanding of the human neural system to watch this guy come in, drop logic bombs, and then pull his skirt over his head and shriek. I’ve seen a lot of good questions be sent right back to him in order to engage in a discussion (isn’t that what makes the whole interweb thing so engaging?) and he can’t, won’t answer any questions or engage in any dialog. Frankly, I’d love it if I could get the attention on RW blogs he gets here. I really want a conversation with sensible conservatives. Just can’t seem to find them.

    And as for RC, my neutered Pomeranian has bigger balls than he does. This is no joke.


  58. hormiga brava chavez says:

    I enjoy watching Reality Check and other trolls get ripped to shreds for their ignorant comments.


  59. flight says:

    Rush Limbaugh is the best for the country. He is the life blood, spokesman, and face of the Republican Party. If you want a picture of our future listen to Rush and think about what it would be.
    He has instructed his party to teach the American people the conservitive path. There is no interest in listening to the American people.
    Rush is conservatism at its best. Pay attention and take notes!!!!
    Simple question. What the hell is democracy?


  60. Xisithrus says:

    Ah yes, Rush is about Rush, nothing new here


  61. hormiga brava chavez says:

    It shows that the trolls – like their GOP leaders – have absolutely nothing of value or substance to offer. They call people names, spew criticism and run.

    So much for Tim’s evaluation:

    San Antonio, Texas-based CC Media Holdings (OTCBB: CCMO) reported a net loss of $5 billion on revenues of $1.6 billion for the three months ended Dec. 31. This compares to net income of $320 million on revenues of $1.9 billion for the same period a year ago.

  70. Mathazar says:

    I notice he wasn’t bragging about success of the right, or how so many Americans agree with their agenda. Just like Bush, he only gives diatribes to other members of his clan.

    He also carefully screen his callers because he’s terrified of

  71. OutstandingInAPlagueOfLocusts says:

    I can’t say I’ve ever actually seen a homeless child living under a bridge. I did spend the week after Easter providing meals to our local homeless shelter. I met a young man and his pregnant wife who could not find jobs, two older folk with jobs, that Lord willing, they will keep long enough to secure a home, two kids in high school, abandoned by their families for goodness knows what set of circumstances who were trying to hang on here long enough to graduate, and one crazy drunk guy.Probably the only one Limbaugh can actually identify with is the crazy drunk guy. I know the bloviating fool is not a big student of history, but I wish to remind him what happens to those who tell the people to just eat cake.


  72. EugeneDebs says:

He made millions off his books, but I don’t hear him offering to work for $1 a year. You bet he’s taking his full salary, So stop whining about Rush’s success.

    Proud, I am not taking offense to Rush’s earnings; he earned his money, dirty or not, and I refuse to denounce that. Rush has been successful on a personal level.

    What we’re taking offense to is his bullheaded denial that there is a recession based on his own numbers. It’s an ignorant view of society through a narrow-minded vision of one’s own success.

    I don’t hate Rush for earning his money; Clear Channel made the boneheaded move to overpay him, and now have to clear out their own budget to support Rush’s ego. Rush just has no vision to help out those who are suffering from this recession.

    Now…have you been affected by the recession, Proud?


  76. Pachydiplax de St. Augustine says:

    Maybe Rush should remarry to help the right keep the evangelicals happy. I suggest Miss California, she would be a nice match for him and it would really make the base happy to see such a heavenly union.

  80. Purple State says:

    Proud Says:

    No I have not been affected by the recession, thank goodness. Thank you for asking.

    Not even in your spending habits?

    Personally, I’ve managed to do okay in the past year, but since I depend on contracts, I am forced to cut my spending back until the next contract can come around. In a positive light, I have been able to cut back on transportation and have held back on buying a car, but I also see my money being reserved for short-term and necessary expenses, while I cannot invest in long-term alternatives.

    You haven’t cut back at all on spending? At all?


  81. EugeneDebs says:

    Mr. Evil Says:

    And I will continue to insult him because he is a troll. He has no interest in discussing anything with us. He drops by only to derail the threads, insult liberals, say LOOK OVER THERE, anything to sabotage what this site does. He knows he is too stupid to actually engage in discussion so since he cant play the game he wants to screw with the game. I dont know what discussion YOU were in but I have never said I wont insult people. I most definitly will. IF they try to talk TO us and have a differing opinion that is all well and good in fact it is GREAT but if they talk AT us and try to provoke us then as far as I am concerned they deserve no mercy. I consider trollstabbing to be a moral imperative


  82. hellinabucket says:

    So I’ll say it again. Soros has donated more than Rush has ever made.


  83. hollydale1 says:

    Reality Check you are a freaking idiot if you think that Limbaugh believes half the crap he says. He says it because his corporate masters pay him $400 million dollars to say it and you knuckledraggers drool all over yourselves on his every word.

    And I will give you credit for recognizing that we are in a recession. When Rush can look past his own numbers and admit that we are in a recession, then I will be satisfied.


  87. EugeneDebs says:

    Good show Hellinabucket.

    SO ProudMORON since you have once again been exposed as the liar and fool that you are. Are you going to ADMIT that you are a liar and your claim about how liberals talk a big game and dont come through was your usual babbling idiocy? It is a FACT that Soros has donated more than Rush the druggie has ever MADE.


  88. Game of Life says:

    limpydic is one arrogant worthless slimeball.

    Rush is an entertainer and nothing more. He is for Rush and nothing more. He is loving the chaos because he feeds off of it. There is a chance that his audience will tire of the 400 million dollar man if the economy doesn’t improve but it’s more likely that those that want to stay mad will.

    Yes it would be nice if great wealth put more into charity and especially if that charity was actually helping our society in a way that donating to their Alma Mater and to the local Opera house or symphony just doesnt accomplish. Pick something worthwhile that really will help someone who NEEDS help. I dont care if it is a left or right leaning charity. Then give them a TON of money.

    If Clear Channel is willing to pay this gross slob despite what is happening in this country, then Limbaugh will take it. And the fact that some of Clear Channels own employees are now gone, is no skin off this mans nose. He laughs at the suffering of everyone. And Clear Channel pays him to do it. They have no more conscience then they do.

    And the people in his audience that suffer from the recession are so stupid they still listen. I wonder how many of them have heard what he said at this dinner? How he manages to ridicule pain is sick. He is one twisted man. Maybe one day, he will get what is long overdue. I won’t hold my breath. There are people that go through this life, causing pain to others and never feel it themselves.

    What a lame brain audience he must have. And these are the people he needs. No one with two working brain cells listens to him. His base and his mind is limited.

    Chortling over other people’s pain is a symptom of right-wing authoritarianism.

    Right wing authoritarianism is a bona fide personality disorder. The list of symptoms reads like a personality profile of the Republican Party. From Wikipedia:

    “[Right wing authoritarians] generally have a conservative economic philosophy, are highly nationalistic, oppose abortion, support capital punishment, oppose gun control legislation, and do not value social equality….

    “Authoritarians are generally more favorable to punishment and control than personal freedom and diversity….They are more willing to suspend constitutional guarantees of liberty such as the Bill of Rights. They are more likely to advocate strict, punitive sentences for criminals, and they report that they obtain personal satisfaction from punishing such people. They tend to be ethnocentric and prejudiced against racial and ethnic minorities, and homosexuals.

    “According to research by Altemeyer, right-wing authoritarians tend to exhibit cognitive errors and symptoms of faulty reasoning.”

    Note the sadistic tendencies and love of inequality. These are the guys who used to torture animals.

    To all the Rush fanboys posting, remember the man is a gut-less (figuratively of course) coward that can’t even run for office to put his money where his mouth is. He couldn’t face being drafted and got out due to a cyst on his as*. Couldn’t hack college so he dropped out. Knows he can’t run for office due to the multiple skeletons in his closet and won’t because he couldn’t actually face the fact that he would lose any election he entered. He can’t face guests of an opposing viewpoint so he sits in his little bunker in Florida, where he can just spout off his bs. Yet, you all actually listen to him like sheep, allowing him to collect his $40 million a year, laughing at all his idiot listeners at his golf club with his wealthy buddies. And trust me, the wealthy laugh at the morons they continue to get to support their views, despite it being against every thing that would actually make their lives better. There is a reason the GOP continues to shrink into obscurity: some of the sheep are tired of being fleeced and have stopped supporting people that mock them behind their back.

    Knowing his background…is that what makes someone more reliable than the other? Obama hasn’t disclosed his Columbia GPA, true, but it’s likely that it was good enough for him to get into Harvard. He graduated manga cum laude from law school. Rush? He had no GPA.

    Well, the other half of the equation should also be considered; the Republicans provided a lame-duck nominee for President and Vice President. If the Republican Party had any strength left in their policies and politicians, they might have kept Obama out of the White House. Perhaps if your leader ran…well, maybe he would have gotten the South if he was lucky.

    By the way, telling people that you’re “outa(sic) here”…just makes you sound like a lame K-Fed celebrity wannabe here. There’s nothing lamer than someone announcing their exit from a website.

    What will the dittoheads say when it is revealed that Rush Limbaugh is bought and owned by George Soros. That’s right RC, Proud and kwitcher Rush is a plant. Noone could be that stupid, arrogant, hateful and misleading all on their own. Much like Steven Colbert( alater model designed to dumb down the hipster college Republican crowd), Limbaugh was an early experiment by the Soros Foundation. They decided that by planting a faux liberal hater on a small AM radio station, that the dumbing down of Republicans through the continued force feeding of lies, half truths and anti-American rhetoric would eventually lead to a Democratic majority and the installation of a socialistic, fascist, muslim, commie, pinko, babykilling brown man in the White House. Mission Accomplished Mr. Soros, much to the chagrin of the unknowing dittoheads! 400 million might be a lot to most but it was a small price for Soros to pay to obtain his final dream of worldwide socialist domination!

    Are you referring to “Operation CHAOS”? I thought that was the other way around; Rush wanted his “Dittoheads” to cross party lines to vote for Clinton in order to derail Obama’s string of primary victories. Of course, he didn’t stick to his guns when Clinton won a few states in April of 2008, and the plan not only failed, but the whole legality of it was brought into question.

    Operation CHAOS was a big huge failure. Someone should remind Rush about that the next election cycle.

    Shoe. Other foot.

    I understand that Rush’s empire was not inherited. Who wouldn’t be jealous about Rush’s lucrative contract? The feeling I have towards his blindness towards American society is not fueled by jealousy, but more by a desire for Rush to open up his eyes a bit more. Too many times people look at one instance and assume it to be the norm.

    Rush can have his empire. I don’t care about his contract, and Clear Channel dug their own grave, so I have no sympathy for them, as well. I’m just tired of his use of a narrow mind to judge society.

    And I am getting tired of people, i.e. government politicians and their “I am the king and you are the surfs” attitude, that you must have their help to survive and you can’t possibly do it on your own. It’s all about power and control for these people. Those who think that the government should have more power want you to live as they see fit. This whole push for a giant nanny state with cradle to grave entitlement mentality makes those who inherit money and wealth look rather justified.

Nor do I see anyone going on Bill-Gates-hate-fests, even though Gates would probably kill himself if he woke up tomorrow and only had as much money as Rush.

    People dislike Rush Limbaugh because he’s a moronic piece of shit. I wouldn’t expect anyone with the gumption to defend this worthless sack of monkey snot to agree, so I’m not asking for an agreement, nor do I want some stupid response that is intended to make me see why Rush is just a fine member of society, because it won’t. I’ve heard too much of what he’s had to say, and it’s not his opinions, it’s the fact that he is a nasty, vitrolic, bigoted sack of LIES and shit he made up out of whole cloth. God himself couldn’t convince me that Rush is a decent human being, and the world will be a better place when he has left it. Period.

    So when are you going to quit lying and show some personal responsibility?

    trace,

    i’m glad you asked that.

    here’s something a guy by

    the name of geddy lee once

    sang. i think it will help you.

    “leprechauns and doughboys

    each must know his part

    to sow a new mentality

    closer to the heart!”

    i wish you good luck

    on your quest.

    You may wish to let Lisa Dollinger from Clear Channel know about how you feel about Rush’s comments, and his over all value to their company. I don’t think she is responsible for hiring him, but she does handle Communications / Media Relations for the company. Her e-mail address is lisacdollinger@clearchannel.com.

    Somehow I don’t think Clear Channel is going to care what anyone here has to say about Rush.

    there’s architecture to do,

    but you’re still here.

    Why has Rush never been sued for slander?


  173. smidget says:

    Hey, Tracy, I didn’t say it wasn’t an opinion.

    I was telling you that you couldn’t be more wrong about the motivation of people hating that bastard. And you refuse to answer to that. Surprise.

    Seriously, get the fcuk out of here. You don’t make sense, you don’t tell the truth, and no one likes you. You aren’t going to convince anyone of anything, especially with pathetic rebuttals like that.

    Also, I’d say that God doesn’t mind, since there isn’t one. It’s a figure of speech, dipshit.


  174. RealityCheck says:

    Rush is God.

    All you liberals should bow down and pay homage to him.

    Hey dstankass…byte me.


  175. Zarathustra says:

    People should not pay attention to trolls who make no arguments aside from overcompensating with aphorisms. you could be dealing with a 12 year old parroting an ill-informed parent or an unfortunate dullard that just doesn’t understand.

    Wasn’t George Soro’s just bragging about what a good recession he is having?

    Never have. Are you ever going to make that call coward?

    “have you no shame?”

    I am not the one who is lying.

    believe it or not trace when

    you steal from others you’re

    only stealing from yourself…

    think about it.
