LIMBAUGH'S SOCIOPATHY FOR ALL TO SEE, THE PROOF
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 10:27 PM by steve2470
<snip>


Frankly, I'm also fed up -- not fed up. I retract that. I'm weary, ladies and gentlemen, of even having to express sympathy. "Oh, she lost her son!" Yes, yes, yes, but (sigh) we all lose things.<snip>

1. "... we all lose things ..."
I wish he'd loose what's left of his brain in an unfortunate Rx overdose!

3. He doesn't have any children does he?
How would he know what it feels like? That's right, he has no feelings. He has no feelings beyond his own selfish needs.

14. Why isn't he in jail
where he himself said people like him belong? He's a monster, and has harmed this country immeasurably.

He has no feelings, except for himself ~ no children, can't keep any relationship going ~ couldn't serve his country when other people his age were doing the fighting in a war he supported. Why does anyone even listen to him anymore?

He laughed about the torture, could care less about the troops, probably looks at them as idiots and they use him to break down normal decency barriors, which is what he is doing with that statement. The same thing he did to diffuse the reaction to the torture photos.

We need to not allow him to do this anymore. I am personally outraged to hear him say that and outrage is what he needs to hear from thousands and thousands of Americans. He's been given a free ride for way too long ~ it's time to take him on.

He needs to be challenged to a debate on Air America with Randi Rhodes (who did serve in the military, btw). It was he who made such a big deal about Clinton and military service, all the time hiding his own draft dodging. Now that he made such a big deal over being in the military, it's coming back to haunt him.

What a useless piece of human garbage he is ~ I don't understand why his trial hasn't started yet.

18. I'm going to personally make sure this stays kicked until
ALL DU'ers see it. If Cindy finds out, Rush will go to his grave regretting the day he said this.

36. Have you seen this?
Limbaugh baselessly compared Cindy Sheehan to Bill Burkett: "Her story is nothing more than forged documents"

Nationally syndicated radio host Rush Limbaugh equated the actions of Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a soldier killed in Iraq, with those of Bill Burkett, the retired Texas Air National Guard officer who provided CBS' 60 Minutes with unauthenticated documents regarding President Bush's National Guard record. Sheehan is currently staging an anti-war protest outside Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas. Limbaugh said that Sheehan's "story is nothing more than forged documents."

Sheehan's "story" is, in fact, that her son died while fighting in Iraq. A Humvee mechanic, Spc. Casey Sheehan was one of seven U.S. soldiers killed in Baghdad's Sadr City on April 4, 2004, by rocket-propelled grenades and small arms fire.

From the August 15 broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show:

LIMBAUGH: I mean, Cindy Sheehan is just Bill Burkett. Her story is nothing more than forged documents. There's nothing about it that's real, including the mainstream media's glomming onto it. It's not real. It's nothing more than an attempt. It's the latest effort made by the coordinated left.

Is that what you're talking about, you heartless bastard?

And our troops are over there listening to this garbage. Well, listen up, troops, because if you die, well, it ain't no big loss, is it, because (sigh) "we all lose things".

13. Ok, here's some good news about Rush...
...he's threatened by Cindy.

I've listened to Rush for several years and I know his modus operandi.

When he (or the administration) feels that something on the Dem side is gaining ground--Rush attacks it and makes fun of it. More specifically--he cackles a fake laugh and explains that, "This is good news! It shows that they're imploding. I'm not worried about this at all. It just shows how desperate they are."

Trust me. Rush and other Reps are scared to death of Cindy Sheehan. They know that the media coverage is only drawing more attention to Bush's failings and the failure of Iraq. They also understand that Cindy's event could draw further interest, more protesters and that it could grow into the breakthrough event that causes the entire country to turn against junior.

I wanted to scream through the radio, "Ok Rush! If you're soooo not concerned about Cindy Sheehan--why did you just spend the entire first hour of your show trying to convince America that you're not threatened by her?"

Rush is incredibly transparent and ineffective. I wish I had a dime for every time he says the word "dovetail". The man needs some new schtick.

27. HE HAD BETTER HOPE THAT REPUBLICANS CONTROL THE WHITE HOUSE FOREVER
Because as soon as our side elects a president--I don't know when, but it will be someday--he is going to be forced off of the air by the feds and possibly thrown in jail for his treason.

30. Yea he sure is tired
They all are tired. They are tired of PRETENDING to support the troops. That support the troops crap is code for "support this war at any cost" and that means human cost. This idiot went on air and insulted Marines and didn't have the nerve to open his phone lines that day. He was all over Armed Forces radio spewing his vile crap about Hackett, demeaning the man's service.

These people only support themselves they could care less about the troops. They are showing their true colors. All the world can see how they really support the troops. As long as that troops is a Bush lover they will support them. The yellow ribbons should say "support the war" because that is what it really means.

50. "I am weary ...of even having to express sympathy"
He's weary of having to express sympathy? Having to express sympathy to families who lose loved ones in combat is a wearisome chore for him now because "we all lose things"? This morning I lost my glasses. According to this dope fiend, this somehow is supposed to put me on even footing with someone who lost a child in the war?

:grr:

This also caught my attention from the transcript of his comments:

If she (Cindy Sheehan) represents a body of thought in this country, it is minuscule. It's not that big. This is being made to look like she represents a majority of opinion. This is being made to look like she represents a whole host of people.

Aren't something like 60% of Americans opposed to the Iraq war? That's miniscule? Is that like how 51% is a mandate? :eyes:

This guy's brain is fully pickled.
