Limbaugh's Nickname of the Day: "Nikita Dean"

[CO Liberal]

He repeatedly referred to Howard Dean during today's radio pukefest as "Nikita Dean" - a blatant reference to former Soviet leader Nikita Kruschev. According to El Rushbo, Dean is more liberal than Vladimir Putin, since Putin is pro-capitalism and since Dean is a Democrat, he's anti-capitalism.

I think the right is scared of Dean - that's why Limbaugh and Hannity have been attacking Howard almost constantly.

1. It begins... I said that limboob would label dean as a commie..

Had to happen. :shrug:

[indigo32]

5. Limboob think ALL DEMS are commies

doesn't matter who they are... if they have a D they are commies.

[ProfessorPlum]

2. You can almost smell the fear.

This is going to get ugly for the corporate prostitutes.

Go Dean!

[spotbird]

3. The right is petrified by Dean

There must be a reason.

[killbotfactory]

4. Hope he doesn't move to Canada when Dean wins the white house.

I would feel sorry for the Canadians.

[CO Liberal]

8. LImbaugh CAN'T Move To Canada

Our neighbors to the North have strict regulations on the importation of diseased swine......

[DieboldMustDie]

12. There are still plenty of right wing dictatorships around the world

Perhaps he'd feel more at home there :evilgrin:

[janx]

6. Good grief. Now all of the right wingnuts will repeat this over and

over, as they do with all of that windbag's juvenile nicknames.

I heard it too. But I laughed out loud at the time he spent (an hour and a half?) talking about NOTHING but Dean.

Periodically, especially if I'm in the car, I tune in to see if he's talking about Dean. Today was the best day yet.

Chimpy & Co. are going down, friends! They're going down!

[sable302]

7. Dean? ... Anti-capitalist?

What a joke. What small minded freaks these people are.

[zbdent]

9. Funny, this country needs a Dem President, and the Right knows it

how else are the newspapers going to sell full-page ads attacking a sitting pResident?

Where are all the people going to get their bribe money to come out and say "Yup, I had sex with ---, and his weenie is teenie."

[JHB]

"...and the other's a dirigible."

n/t

[ewagner]

29. LOL

Got the joke!!!!

:+

[Richardo]

10. Man can that guy GET any funnier?

No I'm serious. Can he please get any funnier?

How long did he have to spend explaining to his audience of Rhodes scholars who Nikita Krushchev was?

[janx]

19. He didn't. Of course he didn't. He barely knows himself...

But like his other moronic nicknames for people, he thought it sounded good.

[MrBenchley]

11. Dean should pound on the flabby chickenhawk with a shoe

so we can all see the resemblance <g>

[poskonig]

13. That's pretty gimp.

I thought they would have come up with even Coward Dean by now.

[Ladyhawk]

14. LOL...

Now I know where my brother got his remark! He told me over dinner, "Howard Dean is a commie." Those were his exact words.

Doesn't he ever think for himself????

[ProfessorPlum]

16. No

:)

[CO Liberal]

18. By Definition, If He's a Dittohead - NO!!

Dittoheads are either unwilling or unable to think for themselves. That's why they parrot everything El Rushbo says.......

[BuelahWitch]

17. How Dean should respond:

"I've been called worse by BETTER."

That always works for me :evilgrin:

[whoYaCallinAlib]

20. And who exactly gives a f**k what Limbaugh calls anybody?

We don't need his audience to kick Bush's ass. His dittoheads are a lost cause.

[David__77]

21. Putin is a right-winger... and?

What's Limbaugh's point? Dean, if anything, could be the greatest saviour of US capitalism. Bush surely is threatening its stability, that's for sure, and that's why the establishment may well bring him down. He need to be there, waiting with the alternative.

[farmbo]

22. Laughed so hard I just about drove in the ditch!!! Rush accusing Dean...

of being a loud mouthed ideologue by being...well...a loud mouthed ideologue on the local 50k watt Clearchannel Station. He just about had a cow.

And the irony was totally LOST on the man...he is totally delusional!

[ibegurpard]

23. At least he doesn't need to worry about making a fool of himself

Kind of hard to do with the demographic listening to him.

[Jonte_1979]

24. That's not even the least bit witty

It doesn't rhyme or anything.:shrug:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

25. Maureen Dowd

had it right.

The dildoheads like to listen to Rush because they like to have their own ideas shouted back at them.

I listen to Jim Rome , mostly. He's on at the same time.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

26. I'm suprised nobody addressed the substace of

Rush's charge.

Dean is to the left of Putin. Just as FDR and Churchill were to the left of Franco.

Putin is a garden variety autocrat. Putin is as far from a liberal democrat as Rush Limbaugh is from a serious scholar.

[indigo32]

28. Hello

there is no substance to Rush's charge...
First of all, he didn't call him Putin, he called him Krushev.
He was directly calling him a COMMIE, and there is absolutely NO substance to that charge whatsoever.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

30. I Stand Corrected

Any political theorist would place Dean and the other eight candidates to the right of Kruschev and to the left of Putin.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

31. Using Rush's Definition

the entire congress is to the left of Putin.

To me Putin is in the same category of garden variety dictators such as Marcos, Batista, Franco, Somoza, Noriega, the Shah of Iran, et cetera.

He's not a liberal democrat so that puts him to the right of all Western leaders even Berlusconi.

[RummyTheDummy]

27. It really doesn't matter what he says...

The pin heads who listen to his show and believe every nugget of pure bullshit that spews from his fat mouth wouldn't vote for Dean in a million years.
He's preaching to the choir.
