W called Limbaugh a "national treasure"

[scottxyz]

"The president noted Rush Limbaugh is a national treasure," said one senior White House staffer.

Kinda reminds me of Ashcroft telling the Southern Partisan magazine we shouldn't think the Confederates sacrificed themselves "for some perverted agenda"... or Trent Lott saying if Strom Thurmond had been elected president we wouldn't've had "all these problems"...

Good ole boys, playing the race card...

1. The first treasure that ever

buried itself.

2. Bush called a California dump a national monument too.

So take that into consideration.

3. Well then treat him like you treat our other national treasures

You know...Yellowstone and the coastlines and the Arctic Refuge and....do whatever you can to rid the world of him..maybe divvy the pig fucker up to your corporate cronies.

4. Thank God Almighty...

We are free at last.The hiring of Rush Limbaugh sent me,a rabid fan of the violence filled,brutality based sport of football,(which i love dearly)into a near psychotic rage.I wondered what I could have done an a conscienious objecter to deserve such a horrible punishment.My mind raced at the things that which my apathy would have warranted such a racist and bigoted human being hired at a post in which the HUGE majority of America(Right and Left)would be subjected to his idiotic philosophies.My only reward is that his stupidity would cost him his job before he can subliminaly infect every football fan,who are,on the majority,casual political observers,with his idioic and disgusting views.The previous week he made a comment about the NBA,an obviously veiled(racist) comment to those familiar with his right wing agenda,which wasnt picked up by the mainstream(liberal?)media.The lucky SOB managed to sneak by another week before the entire nation caught him.Shame on you,ESPN,for hiring someone with a proven and documentable history of racist and politically motivated point of views.Shame on you for not doing your homework and accepting ratings as the standard at which someone is judged.I hope America views you as what you are,another media source hungry for whatever advertising dollars you can grab,whether it gives a bigot airtime or not.National treasure indeed...

5. That's why these working class white guys believe pigman that...

black people and minoritie are out to steal their jobs...these idiots believe it (also that their dicks are too small, maybe that's why there's all these dick stretching infomercials on the air.)

The pigman keeps these working class fools right where the republicans want them, voting for the rich wealthy republicans.

6. i wonder

the working class gets heaped on for its limbaughitis, but when i listen to talk radio, the white males i hear are very VERY well spoken, well fed (you can tell!) well educated, sounding very articulate, and well paid; hardly guys whose kids' future may need them to rob a bank or smuggle dope across the border or something(?)
I remember there were 4 million germans mostly working class who voted against the nazis in 1932....and i'd bet outside of the loudmouths and bullies (the working classes has its share) and hangers on, very few workers listen to or trust the hideous pig.....
the problem is, the working class hasn't got a voice anymore, so this is just speculating....

8. So? I have no doubt Hitler called Axis Sally something similar

Dioctators and other Third World Types (like Hitler, Marcos, Bush...) simply love their pet mouthpieces who keep the people anesthetized and confused and angry and afraid.

They just LOOOOVE them.

Third World Types like Bush couldn't maintain the power they stole without the love and support of people like Reifenstahl and Limbaugh.

Couldn't.
