OH MY GOSH - RUSH JUST RESIGNED

[bicentennial_baby]

1. Yep

It was on the ESPN crawl!

[ShaneGR]

40. Want to see how FU**ED up the Freepers can be???

QUOTE: "Let the A**ho** quaterbacks sponsors know. That chunky soup company probably does not want to be draged into this. Hit them in the wallet. We did it to the Dixiechix, now we blitz the quarterback."

[absolutezero]

59. i hope they realize

that the dixie chicks are even more popular, despite being kicked off the radio...

[pink_poodle]

2. snicker. -nm

:

[bpilgrim]

3. FAT A$$ WAS FIRED!

bout time, too :bounce:

peace

[OneTwentyoNine]

57. Yeah,I'm not buying the "resigned" BS....

ESPN told that fatass to hit the road.

David

[bookman]

4. Made my day n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. Should I gloat

snicker

[MUAD_DIB]

63. No. I think that gloating is inappropriate.

Rush is just a sideshow.

He is the champion of small-minded and racist Americans everywhere who really should be flushed down into the septic tank of history and forgotton.

DUers need not gloat.

[Blue_State_Elitist]

6. Mutha Fucka

Hell yeah. Take that swine shit.

[JohnKleeb]

7. party at my house :)

Bring Rush dolls to beat up and candy and alcohol ;)

[w13rd0]

8. May his bulbous ass...

...hit a sharp object while rolling down the hill and pop like the bloated puss and piss filled syphillitic fleshbubble that he is...I just hope no innocent children are around when he goes down.

[44g]

9. Pimple Ass said he was only criticizing the media for exalting a black qb

who in his wee estimation is no good. What a corpulent racist weasel.

[MissMillie]

58. He has a forum to criticize the media...

... that would be his radio show.

ESPN hired him to talk about football.

He's an idiot that doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut. (But of course, we all knew this a long time ago.)

[rudeboy666]

10. We want football analysis___not politics

...something that the idiots at ESPN somehow forgot.

[bpilgrim]

12. i know some of the PLAYERS and COACHES were PISSED

damn straight :bounce:

peace

[abbyhoffman]

11. resigned my ass

The fat asshole was fired!! & if the drug rumors are true hopefully he will be rotting in jail! I wonder if he is Bushies supplier

[NashVegas]

22. You Can Bet He was Offered a nice severance

very nice.

[Bake]

52. Jail? Bush will pardon him in a skinny minute!

He's a "national treasure," remember?

Bake

[PaDUer]

13. same thread..

To: BUSHdude2000

The DemoRat slime machine is in full operation now. First the constant distruction of President Bush with Iraq, the economy, Enron, 9-11, etc. Then the CIA bull. now Rush is getting the full anal exam.

WAKE UP Republicans and Conservatives!!!!! It is time to go on a full court press or an all out blitz to combat this crap. Wake up GOP and spend some of that stinking money you are sitting on and call a spade a spade. IT IS FRICKING TIME TO START OUTING DEMOCRATS AND THEIR TIES TO CRIMINALS AND TERRORISTS,ETC!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sick and tired of this BULLCRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have to fight fire with fire. You can't be nice with them and try this "new tone" crap with them!!

There is something going on....Bush is in trouble as much as we don't want to think so, people are getting dumped on every cable channel, I'll bet if it was said once it was said 10,000 times per channel "the illegal leak outting a CIA agent came from the White House" you hear that so many times if you aren't looking past the headlines and you are going to start to believe it!

Rush didn't mean his words as the libs took it, but then he are always looking for a reason to make conservatives look like racist, and will just on anything.

People this is coming at us like a rapid machine gun fire! It has to be stopped and fast!

I'm extremely disappointed, reason being this gives the EVIL RATS boldness to continue their evil schemes against pubs with success! This is pure BUMMER! He just folded! :{ In other words bend over and get ****!! I'm sick of it! F the dirty stinking vomit RATS along with their WHORE the beast of NY hiltery and the big creep! I HATE THEM ALL!!

[Pale Blue Dot]

14. This is making me smile

They're scared shitless! :bounce: :bounce: :D

[oldleftguy]

19. There's something about Texas...

:kick:

[efhmc]

25. Excuse me, what??

Explain to this real Texan what you mean, please.

[WoodrowFan]

55. I think he was referring to..

I suspect that he was referring to the last post, which was REALLY bile-filled and over the top foaming at the mouth with hatred. It was signed "roseoftexas."

[Kat 333]

51. ROFLMAO

Ohhhh too funny.

Sounds like a bunch of 5 year olds on the playground.

"I am sick and tired of this BULLCRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

"There is something going on....Bush is in trouble as much as we don't want to think so"

"People this is coming at us like a rapid machine gun fire! It has to be stopped and fast!"

"EVIL RATS - I HATE THEM ALL!!"

[RummyTheDummy]

15. Whooooooopppeeeeeeeee!!!!

Eat shit you racist pig! Now go fade off into oblivion you fat fuck!

[Mari333]

16. Hasta La Vista!!

Good riddance. Now he will play the "victim".
He was fired. Period. Bet ESPN called him and said "considering the current climate, resign or be fired".

No doubt that lying sack of shit will blame it on Hillary.

[efhmc]

17. Sometimes the Goddess does answer our prayers.

[Redneck Socialist]

18. Funny...

how when he cannot control the situation he takes his ball and runs home crying.

[Oilwellian]

20. Do you suppose the stress this must be causing Rush....

will physically manifest itself into a new case of anal cysts?

[Chryslin]

21. Now is the PERFECT time

Please copy the threads currently ravaging FR, and send them to the Fresno City Council.

It would certainly be interesting to see how they claim they're not a 'hate group', considering some of the things they're saying at this very moment.

[JackRiddler]

65. Ahem...

Are you saying the rhetorical level of several posts on this thread is any higher?

If we are better, let's do better and leave all this hate rhetoric aside (syphillitic bulbous pus-ass hope he dies and rots in hell etc. etc.) This is indistinguishable from much of the Freep spew.

[unfrigginreal]

23. LOL! Here's a post that I grabbed before it got deleted...

To: BUSHdude2000

roflmao!!!!!!

Well freepers, your golden goose is cooked.

This has more to do with the drug thing than the racist comments. Rush knows it's true, this thing will tear him to shreds. Don't reach for the percocet yet tubby!

and us evil liberals, well you know we'll be dancing around the bonfire, hand in hand, Ted, Hil, Big Dog, Gore, roasting the fat bloated drug infested carcass of Rush Limbaugh

[Media_Lies_Daily]

24. I bet his radio show will REALLY be venomous now. See ya, Rush!

[stickdog]

26. Wow! And McNabb has re-signed

for $20 million.

[in_cog_ni_to]

27. WooHoo!

Please DO let the door hit ya on the way out. Scumbag!

[blondeatlast]

60. And try to have the handle hit your cyst! Hah!

[Andy_Stephenson]

28. Like Mannah

from Heaven

[madmax]

29. The hatred on those freeper threads is scary!!

Those folks are rabid. :scared:

[rudeboy666]

32. lol

I think I'm going to cry. I really wish Rush would have hung in there. I think most people would have been behind him.

[RummyTheDummy]

36. Rabid, and scared....

Oh how I enjoy watching them suffer. Almost better than sex.

[w4rma]

30. Good grief that was fast! (n/t)

[proud patriot]

43. Yeah it was

How long was he on the ESPN show a couple of weeks ?

[hexola]

31. Its going to be a great CSPAN Washington Journal morning!!!

I might even record it...

[Scairp]

33. Ha ha

I guess ESPN just didn't understand that hiring Rush was a recipe for disaster. Rush just doesn't know when to keep his big, racist trap shut. Glad to see him get what's coming to him for a change.

[scottxyz]

49. Broadcast media doesn't really understand "ratings"

Lots of people watch creepy shows on TV - like when you're flipping the dial and you come across a bunch of people yelling on one of those talk shows. It's somehow mesmerizing. For a few minutes. Like watching a car wreck. Like listening to O'Reilly on FOX yell "SHUT UP!"

But it doesn't mean that people are taking these stations SERIOUSLY. That's the distinction that the broadcast media needs to learn. They hired Rush because he was "controversial" and they heard that Fox had high ratings. That doesn't mean that people LIKE watching that crap. If a house was burning down, you'd stop and watch that too. Doesn't mean you like watching it.

[in_cog_ni_to]

34. Also...

I like to think our DU letters helped ESPN to persuade him to resign. :bounce:

[rudeboy666]

35. good nite gracy ;-)

David Limbaugh, author of "Persecution: How Liberals Are Waging War Against Christianity" He should have added his bother and conservatives to the title

42. My personal favorite.***

Let the A**ho** quaterbacks sponsors know. That chunky soup company probably does not want to be draged into this. Hit them in the wallet. We did it to the Dixiechix, now we blitz the quarterback.
*******************************************************************

uh, yeah, perpetuate that racist attitude by going after a guy who was playing football at the time your saviour crapped out his mouth.

[uhhuh]

50. HAHA!

If the Freepers do to Donovan McNabb what they think they did to the Dixie Chicks, he will shortly be named the highest paid, most well known and liked football player in history. I'd like to know how they think McNabb is responsible for the decisions of both Limballs and ESPN. Why should they punish him?

[Must_B_Free]

53. The FREEPERS vs. A CAN OF CHICKEN SOUP!

meanwhile in the near future, the Freepers are engaged in a mortal coil at a chicken soup company

RimJobb: "the enemy here is:

Chicken Soup!, er

Donovan McNabb!, uh

DixieCHicks!?, no uh,

Wait! what are we fightint against?

Rush Limbaugh! no wait, that's who we're for...

Oh yeah, ESPN... We're going to stick it to you right in the soupcan!"

[Maeve]

56. they think they hurt the Dixie Chicks?

Isn't that precious!

[blondeatlast]

61. Yeah, and, uh, really great job on the Dixie Chicks.

You must be really proud of yourselves for destroying their careers.


Can you say, deluded?

[scottxyz]

48. I wrote a couple of letters to ESPN

I was really snide, saying "Hey, Rush is doing a great job! Maybe now you can get David Duke on the air too!"

[FubarFly]

37. Any delusions Rush has of ever entering the mainstream are OVER.

Back you beast. Back to the fetid cesspool of marginalized right-wing bigots where you belong!

The tide has turned. They are on the defensive!

[LincolnMcGrath]

38. This is just the begining. We may need to freep the hell out of ESPN

To: BUSHdude2000


This is just the begining. We may need to freep the hell out of ESPN
The Cultural war is starting to get personal. Noy just with Rush. The libs are going after everyone.

It's up on there. Maybe he heard you :-)

[FubarFly]

39. Forward that to ESPN.

They could probably use a good laugh.

:-)

[leesa]

41. Adios to the nasty racist weanie.

Will they still be able to get their daily dose of hate??? Stay tuned...

[efhmc]

46. The perfect name for him!!

[angka]

44. a hahaha

i'm going to have pork chops in his honor

[Brian Sweat]

45. I wonder if he resigned or if he was allowed to resign?

[Kamika]

54. my thoughts exactly

I think they just told him, either you resign or we fire you.

Pretty much how hitler handled rommel

[0rganism]

47. Ding, dong, Rush is gone

Celebration! I love reading those freepers squirming in discontent.

You know, I wouldn't mind it one bit if the Democrats and liberals start fighting back. It's been a long time coming. For decades, we've been playing defense, and in a gradual state of decline.

What if liberalism suddenly became as fashionable as conservatism was in 1994? Maybe we could have an equal rights ammendment by 2006.

[blondeatlast]

62. I was thinking the same thing; we need to play our offense.

It's become okay in this country to be racist, sexist, warmongering, and homophobic in public. Supposedly, the "majority" of Americans are just that.

I don't believe it for a minute. We've let the media whores ride roughshod over us too ong.

Al Franken needs a daily radio show. For that matter, so does Will Pitt. ESPN should hire John Kleeb in repentance!

This is the beginning--LET THE MEDIA REVOLUTION BEGIN!

[WoodrowFan]

64. Funny Comment from Wash Post discussion page

"But seriously - as I emailed to ESPN earlier, if ESPN needs ratings this badly they should go with Girls on Trampolines. Much safer. Afterall, objectification of women is acceptable in football culture - insinuating that black men can't be good quarterbacks (with all the 'black men aren't intelligent enough to command the field' baggage that entails) is not only absurd from a statistical standpoint, it's absurd from a 'student of the game' standpoint."
