Best Rush Limabaugh quote ever.

[Jade Fox]

Best Rush Limbaugh Quote Ever! (and before he was on drugs)
"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling
chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and why?
Because Saddam 'allegedly' gassed a few Kurds in his own country. Mark my words.
All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a 'war criminal' or 'committing
crimes against humanity' is the same old thing. Liberal Hate Speech! And
speaking of poison gas...I say we round up all the drug addicts and gas them."

-Rush (OxyMoron) Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988

10. But Rush did say on his radio show.....

the day before the 2000 election:
"if George W Bush wins the popular vote but Al Gore wins the electoral college - there will be such an outcry in this country - that Al Gore will NEVER be inaugerated. The people of this country wont stand for it!
