Hello, FreeRepublic visitors and listeners to Mr. Limbaugh!
Glad you found your way here, to the more tolerant, less generally pissy side of things.

Happy Arnold won?

Well, so am I :) - See, now I know that better Gun Control laws will be put in place in CA, I know that a Woman's right to choose won't be messed with, and I have some sort of hope that he'll leave same sex couples alone.

Aren't you glad Rush is on the air?

Well, yeah, I am too. I mean, it says alot for our Country that even a man who ingests 30+ prescription pain killers a day (without a prescription) is still able to have a Radio show that preaches hate and discontent daily. Pretty sad that the same individual is using his Nazi-like tactics to stop people like Randi Rhodes from syndicating, too. Surely, Mr. Limbaugh doesn't fear the competition. I mean, after all, he does have 1/2 his brain tied behind his back, and his Talent, is, of course, on loan from God. (and Merck, and the Neo-Cons, and PNAC, but i digress)

Isn't President Bush great?

Yes, he is one of the greatest failures in the history of modern elected office. To begin with, he wasn't elected to the office to begin with. I LIVE in Florida, I KNOW what went on here - I was hearing reports of voting irregularities as early as 7:15 that morning. I won't rehash the bogus SCOTUS ruling that has appointed your fearless exalted leader into office - no use crying over spilt milk and all.

Maybe if you Freepers & Rushies read some posts here, you might get a better appreciation for concepts like tolerance, understanding, peace, & appreciation for those that are 'different' from us. Guess what, ALL of us live on this planet - ALL of us suffer from the inane decisions of this administration. Even you guys.. If you continue to live in your right-wing cloud of 'everything's great, Go Bush!'.. then you won't have an ounce of my sympathy when a suitcase nuke goes off in D.C. or something similiar because America remains the 'lets stick our nose in everyone else's business' country for no other purpose than to make the rich, richer.

So, Freepers, Rushites, & various other conservatives - welcome. Read a bit, educate yourselves. Go buy a book like 'The lies of George W. Bush' by David Corn, or perhaps something like Al Franken's new work. Guys, you're being lied to. I realize ALL politicians lie - its the nature of politics. But these lies are going to affect your children & grandchildren as well as my own. Unfortunate, but true.

So, to you, Conservatives, I extend the ultimate olive branch - the olive branch of understanding, of acceptance, and of recognizing that you're not the enemy - just misinformed... but that's ok... you'll catch on - especially once Arnold screws over the GOP in some inane way. Careful what you wish for.

3. Well, true..
alot like Drudge, he's basically a self hating repressed homosexual. Unfortunate - if I were gay, I'd be proud of it. God only knows I'd be getting some tail at least.. (or whatever they call it)

I was just posting how I felt. No need to lower myself to their approach of ignore the message, beat down the messenger. Because, History will show you that such a short term solution doesn't ever really work.

7. And while you're here
You might as well learn the truth, not the lies your media spew at you. Everyone here suffers when one of our service people gets maimed or killed in your insane and unjust war. The celebration of death is going on over at Free Republic whenever some old person in Europe dies of the heat.

Look over there if you want to see hate.

10. I'll recommend "Big Lies" by Joe Conason
Edited on Wed Oct-08-03 12:45 PM by underpants
Here is the actual truth:

Dem Presidents are better for the stock market than Repubes (over the last 100 years-three studies prove it)

The Founding Fathers were PROGRESSIVES. The conservatives (Tories) wanted to remain loyal to the Crown.

The only antiwar protests of WWII (both before and after Pearl Harbor) were organized by 'America First' an isolationist movement. Oh it also was the home to Japanese and German agents working in the US, one of them out of a Republican Congressman's home and Hill office.

Facts! Another fact is that that post was excellent darknemus.

11. Wow, they like me, they really like me!
I see that the Freepers decided to link to this post. You might want to be careful with that - sometimes, even to those so deeply shrouded in the cloak of ignorance, a sliver of the truth can seep through. That might just backfire on you - but I admire your attempt to find humor in my words to cover up for your own shortcomings.

See you at the polls in Nov, 2004 :)

12. a very momentary 'victory'
I think that Rush needed an easy 'victory' in order to temporarilly forget the crumbling of his little world.

Granted, some posts at DU ARE idiotic(but thankfully the cooler heads at DU respond with reasonable posts___something that Rush doesn't report).

BUt the man needs some sort of victory. Anything. He is that desparate.

Rush built a straw man and knocked it down.

18. DU infatuated freepers
Let's assume that DU is an insignificant, toilet,(insert insult), etc, etc,........

Then why all of the attention and concern?

Why would the man with 'talent on loan from God' even bother to give DU any attention?

You freepers have to admit it: sites like DU(and others) are a living negation to your isolated world-view.

And you guys/gals hate this fact. Period.

20. Well of course they do
Remember, back in the 1800's, Slaves were killed if they did anything like take an interest in reading or writing. Education & free will are two of the greatest enemies to the Conservative mindset. Why do you think Rush fans are all called 'dittoheads' - its because they are incapable of rational, individual thought. However, Groupthink is a dangerous, flawed concept - and its going to come back to bite them.

By the way, conservatism pretty much goes against the laws of nature - as, in order to evolve, we need to expand .. NOT contract.

19. Due to recent events
Rush Limbaugh has had to reconsider his motto "Talent On Loan From God" to a more appropriate motto "Talent On Loan From OxyContin." The Dittoheads will also have to change their greeting from "megadittos" to "megadoses." I know and understand how hard it must be for you guys to accept Rush being a hillbilly heroin junky. I mean really, it must be hard to accept this man's word as "Godly" now that we know he's under Satan's control and supports terrorism with his illegal drug activities.

Rush has also been famous for denigrating lawyers at every turn, so didn't you find it amusing to see how quickly he went in search of one, when he learned of this "probe" into his drug addiction? And he didn't choose just any lawyer, he chose Attorney Roy Black who was quoted to say, "but John Ashcroft is no friend of civil liberties or the Constitution." You'll also be interested in knowing that Roy Black's career achievements include the successful defenses of William Kennedy Smith on a rape charge in Palm Beach. Remember when Rush raked this guy over the coals for defending Smith? Isn't it absolutely astounding to see your man Rush now resort to hiring the very man he supposedly despised? I know, your head must be hurting. So is mine.

28. Oh, please, many Freeper Brownshirts know EXACTLY
what they are wishing for.

Just go over to Nazistormtrooper.com if you have the stomach. It won't be long until you find a Freeper fantasy of random execution of liberals lovingly told and dreamily relayed.

Just how long before these monsters feel safe enough to bring their fantasies into reality.

Bring 'em on! Got a little surprise for you, Freeper Brownshirts.

35. Another question...
the postings at freerepublic, if that's what you call it, are extremely short. No new ideas, no interesting philosophy, not even moral or religious discussion in your forums. Just one liners, insults, bigotry, and bad jokes.

Is this happening because of a limitation on how many words are allowed per posting, or are all freepers really this stupid?

39. Its more like they're incapable of producing new ideas..
But are you really surprised by this? The 'dittoheads' of the world repeat the same few mantras over and over again,deluding themselves to believe them as fact. I challenge ANY of them to read a book like David Corn's the Lies of George W. Bush and to come up with accurate counterpoints to his statements. They won't accept the challenge because they are incapable of the impossible, even with the Divine Intervention that leads them to believe the 10 commandments are appropriate in a Courthouse Rotunda, but not the 8 pillars of Buddha.

42. maybe so...
but after reading some of their postings, I can't help but wonder if even the 10 commandments are beyond their pea-sized brains.

It would of been comical if not so alarming. I also noticed a copyright notice at the bottom of every page. Does this mean that everything they post on that web page becomes the property of the owner, and if they try to reclaim it they can be sued?

I would have a slight problem with someone else copyrighting my written thoughts, not that the postings at that website are of any value... Finally the gap between shrub's "compassionate" conservative bs, and their hatred is shocking. You would think they would be the ones trying to nail shrub, and get a dittohead loudmouth screamer into office.

I forget who it is by, but it is a pretty fair look at the Reagan years. It can almost show how this all came about. There is so little substance in RR, bush 1 and bush 2, even when all tossed into a pot. There is NOTHING there.

48. remember how Bush's numbers began to drop...
after Fox televised the Dem debate....they thought they were being cute, turns out they exposed their flock of zombies to some truth and the shin came off of Pres. Turd....

Enjoy the slow decline down into the mid 30s for Bush's numbers...

You guys (repugs) are really off your game when you advise your zombies to come around here, they might actually get a spark of life and the next thing you know...poof...there goes your hold on power...I guess that's cause you are all drunk with power and desperate...what with coming to realize that Bush is a dolt...oh well, try the nine steps for a recovering repug...
