Rush Limboxy: "Don't visit this democratunderground"

[angka]

Rush runs delayed here in Denver, so I got the chance to catch his rather lengthy advertisement for everybody's favorite progressive forum.

Some memorable quotes:

"Don't visit this place. I know you're all going to."

"You rank-and-file Democrats are worse than (your leaders)."

"It's just scary."

"It will only stir up more unrest."

The best part was this absolute straw-man post he dug up. I'm trying to remember anyone who ever advocated these things without getting immediately smacked down for it, if not tombstoned outright. And he said this post was 'tame' compared to most of what's posted here.

With that kind of setup, it will be even easier to demonstrate what kind of bellicose domagogues people like Limboxy really are. I hope his dittoheads show up here in droves. We'll give them an education.

1. Good point--remember Jack Nickelson in that famous scene?

"The TRUTH? You CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"

Apparently, that's how the ditto heads / Coulter-heads live their lives--"don't give me the truth, give me what I want to hear."

"Conservative, good; liberal, bad."

[Robin Hood]

2. The dude is all doped up.

How can anyone trust what a dope fiend says?

35. Pill popping pigboy ought to see a shrink instead of giving advice.

Get help Jeff Christie.

[w13rd0]

3. Educate them?

Well, if we could accomplish that, we might have pointers for the school systems. You can't teach old lying dogs new tricks. The dittoheads can only be dealt with one on one, they seldom manage to stray off their reservation in groups.

4. lol hes doing for DU what fox did for al franken

[arcane1]

15. yep, we're being "Frankened" at this very minute :-)

even though I must admit I've been in a biting mood all morning, I can assure lurking freips that I don't find them tasty...

:evilgrin:

[DarkPhenyx]

5. I think some have already been in today.

Ah, well...as they say even bad press is good press.

[Qutzupalotl]

7. Wasn't he found in a compromising position with a young boy

back when he was Jeff Christie, a DJ in Pennsylvania in the early 70's?

We know the answer, it's just fun to phrase it as a question sometimes.
:)


On edit: Ah, yes. Here it is.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=497179

So far we have:

1. The rumor about DJ Jeff Christie being fired from KQV in 1973 after an arrest on Winthrop Street for gay pandering. This rumor supposedly circulated on the UPitt campus for weeks following the firing. Verified parts are that Christie was fired by KQV, that Winthrop Street was a gay pickup spot in that era, and several people have confirmed hearing that same rumor at the time. One person confirmed having heard the rumor a couple of years later in water-cooler gossip at the Richmond VA radio station where he worked. < That would be WRVQ-94, where he was "Dr. Jacques Roque"...faux-French for Jock Rock. Paging Dr. Freud! > At this time, nobody knew who Jeff Christie was.

2. Verification that KQV's Jeff Christie went on to become the man behind the Golden EIB Microphone, Rush Limbaugh.

3. Verification that the fellow who helped him get his second start in radio, and who taught him how to dress, was a gay man. Not that significant in itself. but you know, it is rather odd for a guy to be going clothes shopping with another guy.

4. The mysterious "cyst" that kept him out of 'Nam. One cause of anal cysts can be receptive anal sex, but of course we have no way of knowing in this case. We do know that this was on his draft deferrment documents, and that he now denies that he ever had an anal cyst. (He did so on the air just the other day.)

5. He keeps getting divorced. Not a lot in itself, but one wonders why? And we hear exactly nothing from him about his current wife.

6. The hearsay from a posting elsewhere on this forum that Rush used to go drinking at gay bars in in CA. Mind you, I do know that some open-minded people who are not gay go drinking with friends at gay bars. Rush has never struck me as an open-minded person. Or do I mis-read him?

7. In spite of the sexual preference of his mentor, and in spite of having socialized with gay people in the past, Rush has spared no effort to trash "the gay agenda" on his program. He has been especially nasty to Rep. Barny Frank.

[Robin Hood]

12. What is a pedophile Alex?

Daily double.

[no name no slogan]

33. Not that there's anything wrong with that (n/t)

[oasis]

37. Knowing this, would Freeperzoids still worship Jeff Christie...er Rush?

[angka]

43. i think there's something about the term 'dittos'

that implies you're willing to drink the koolaid if necessary.

[xxqqqzme]

68. reading all your post, one name instantly

springs 2 mind -
J Edgar Hoover

There is something w/ these closeted minds - the self hatred goes a long way 2 explaining the failure 2 rehab.

[slappypan]

9. poor Rush

Ranting and hallucinating in a state of drug-induced paranoia, like Ellen Burstyn in "Requiem for a Dream."

[charlie]

10. "I know you're all going to."

Indeed. They certainly love received wisdom and orders from on high.

Nice Freepers. Good Dittoheads. Roll. Fetch.

[Cat Atomic]

11. Rush is a junkie. I rest my case.

Who cares what Rush Limbaugh thinks? He only ever had credibility with ultra conservative hate mongers, and now I have to think his credibility is pretty much limited to ultra conservative hate mongers in the Betty Ford Clinic.

[omshanti]

13. that's really sad

that the great and mighty *sarcasm* Rush Limbaugh has to resort to bashing a MESSAGE BOARD!
What is he, skeered??? Skeered of a big ol mean nasty message board Rush boy??? Skeered of all those democrats out to get you?

What a chickenshit.

[Cat Atomic]

18. Shows how marginalized we've become, dunnit?

Can't bitch about the White House. It's Republican. Congress? Same thing. They've got the media, too.

Now he's down to attacking Democratic MESSAGE BOARDS.

Running out of targets, are we Rush? Sort of ridiculous to point at a message board and say, "liberals everywhere controllin' everything!".

[janekat]

45. He's hoping to start a war with us - so they feel sorry for him

he can run to his supporters saying we're "beating up" on him.

[angka]

46. i hope you're right.

because we would not let up until he's a rhetorical smoking hole

[WoodrowFan]

58. Smoking Hole?

I will resist making a joke about his anal cyst, I will resist making a joke about his an anal cyst, I will..... :spank:

[truthseeker1]

14. Why would Rush give DU free publicity?

He knows how it works. Any publicity is good publicity.

[info being]

67. Well...he's prepared his sheep well

Our posts will sound strange to the unquestioning and pre-programed mind. These guys aren't worried about giving us a platform anymore...all they have to do is call us names and our voices are muted.

[Kolesar]

16. We extend love to all the visiting dittoheads

:puke:

[illini]

17. Its good PR! All publicity is good!!!!!!

NT

[angka]

25. i agree, and so does rush himself.

he talked about this last week in defense of himself.

[Cha]

20. "worse"? oh limburger, you pill popper, you have no street

cred.

[spindoctor]

21. More memorabilia

I too had a chance to listen to Mr. Limbaugh's show over lunch. Very amusing, I must say.
Here's what I caught.

"Democrats are more loyal to their party then to the country." (??? - no explanation given)

"What if Rove is innocent? He already has been cleared." (Bush: "Karl, did you do this?" Rove: "No, Mr. President." - can't argue with that).

A very entertaining show, but just like the people who voted for Schwarzenegger, the majority of its listeners must have a hard time separating fact and fiction.

[DuctapeFatwa]

23. Muslims and Socialists will HYPNOTIZE YOUR PUPPIES!!!

FLEE! from the dangerous DUngeon of Deviant Delinquents who hate Halliburton's freedom to have a really spectacular 3rd quarter!

Mothers, hold your little ones close, lest the Perfidious Posters turn your precious babies into Polyglots!

[angka]

26. don't forget lust after your white women!

the media is very desirous of a black man doing well with your wife...

[DuctapeFatwa]

28. And spill anti-American tabouli on your WHITE PUPPIES

Send Federally Funded Free Pizza to Africa with FREE VISAs on EVERY BOX!!

29. helter skelter's comin down fast!

39. Isn't it against FCC rules to broadcast under the influence?

[mumon]

56. We SHOULD ALL COMPLAIN TO THE FCC.

And tell Clear Channel/Premiere, we're going to the FCC to get their licenses pulled if they don't pull Limboxy.

[tjdee]

30. D-R-U-G-G-I-E.

Can you say druggie?

Possible arrest?

I knew you could.

It just cracks me up that his situation seems to not have checked him at all. Wasn't there something about removing the log from your own eye??

[angka]

31. hypocrisy is doubleplusgood.

how else could all those fundies in garden grove vote for arnie?

[meisje]

51. what's your view on soft drugs?

[tjdee]

52. They're fine, in moderation.

I've never used drugs illegally, but I certainly know people who have (basically marijuana). They weren't popping hundreds (thousands?) of pills a day, or even smoking 5-10 joints a day. A druggie, IMO, is someone who abuses drugs, not someone who recreationally partakes.

I got no beef with soft drugs, as long as I'm not involved and people don't overdo it (and yes, I realize that it's hard to say how much is "too much").

:)

[Jacobin]

34. Why are all those "good" solid RW Murkans still listening?

He should be in rehab or behind bars, not walking the streets peddling drugs.

What's this country come to anyway? I know. It's the damn libruls who let him out!!

[9215]

36. I likes it when he thinks we is SCAAAARWEEE!!!

BOO! hee, hee, BOO!

:bounce: :bounce:

[Cooley Hurd]

38. Since I can assume this particular thread is being read...

...by Limbaugh and his dittoheads, let me just say:

Are you people out of your minds???? Was there lead in your drinking water, or were you just born stupid???

Thanks for letting me vent...

[oasis]

40. piggybacking your post to add : Take your "dittoheads" out of your asses!

[eleny]

41. stirring up unrest - let me just say....

:hi: hi from lakewood, angka!

you're right - bring 'em on!

[angka]

42. they always get shrill as they begin to see it slip away

:hi: from arvada!

[janekat]

44. Rush just wants to make DU the demon instead of himself

he's trying to distract his listeners.

[OneTwentyoNine]

62. Thats the ticket...We DU'ers caused Rush to abuse drugs....

Ahh well,to bad Pigboy. Gawd as much as I can't stand those supermarket tabloids I LOVED seeing Rush's mug on the front page!! ROFLOL...................

David

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

47. Hey, Rush!

Chew up a handful of Loritabs and get over it.
We hit the "trifecta" with you and yours...

1. The Whitehouse leaker
2. Your getting fired
3. Your being exposed as an Oxy eater!

Bwahahaha!

[9215]

48. ROTFLMAO!!!!

Goddamn I hope, I wish, I wish he sees your post.

Nothing like a thump Rush week to get the creative juices going.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

54. I wish I could take credit for the graphic...

I ripped it off the bottom of the Bartcop E! page.

[angka]

53. a hahaha

just when everything was going so well for him and his bitches...

[Lefty48197]

49. The dildo-heads must be so proud of Rush

He was able to get his weight under control, and all it took was illegal narcotics. Wow, talk about picking yourself up by your bootstraps.

[OneTwentyoNine]

60. Hell,this the SECOND time Rush has mentioned DU....

Thanks Rush,you must like the place!!! Log in won't you?? We'd love to discuss things without being cut off like you do on your program.


David

[Nlighten1]

50. The great thing is he is giving DU great publicity...

Publicity from Rush gives you traffic you can't buy cheap.

[9215]

57. That is what has me rolling on the floor

Rush is actually doing DU a favor, plus it is so good to know we are getting to him. All the revelations about his shady past: four wives, nailed for sodomy on Philly's Main, drug use and maybe dealing, etc., etc. have gotten to him.

Now that lard ass has bitten the dust we can focus on bony ass Ann Coulter or O'Lielly.

[angka]

55. a kick for limboxy's morning crew

hope they see this
hope they see this

[MrPrax]

59. Hey Freepers!!! Your Messiahs' Are Big Fat Drug Addicts!!!!

Whether it be Rush or Elvis...and as a result of being big fat drug addicts, they vote Republican.

[Catherine Vincent]

61. I proudly drive around with my DU bumper sticker on my car.

I hope some dittohead monkey don't slash my tires or something.

[markus]

63. What post? Which? Where?

What does he claim we say around here? I mean, some of us get a little goofy after a hearty breakast of Little Babies in Satanic Sauce, but really?

Perhaps he'd like to adress some of the things Freepers say, or Ann Coulter's threats of death and torture.

[PATRICK]

64. Maybe they'll read this

After too much, far too much exposure to the lopsided right wing media, their special spokespersonas that is, I have come to the conclusion that they are not completely disingenuous shills. In their own minds, that is.

They are, in layman's terms, certifiably nuttier than a fruitcake. They are constantly looking into the mirror darkly and see their own rage and fear reflected within. Constantly they accuse those different from them of being themselves, because it IS a mirror and not a window. As insane as they are in behavior, I believe the passionate volume belies total madness. Instead they are drowning out the deep truths they know and cannot face, mostly about themselves.

From the post-WWII era when the terms "fascist" and "fifth columnist" were quickly and wholesale translated only to Stalinist communists, every properly fearful, hateful and derogatory term more aptly applied to the renegade right has been thrown against the rest of humanity. "No, YOU are!" Only worse. They believe black is white and their judgment is absolute. Funny, when God speaks absolutely He contravenes most of their dictums and values. Maybe God should just shut up and listen and stop spinning human moral behavior to mercy and compassion?

Listening to the tentatively mild NPR interview with Mr. Anti-Spin Zone(preceeded by a vicious recorded slam by that wounded, aggrieved bully) I am totally convinced- because HE is totally convinced- that he believes whatever judgment drops from his mouth is absolute. A paranoid delusionist. Immature adolescence grown insane with power. I can think of no other set of journalists in past generations as extremely nutty and less reliable than these better organized, commercially backed, glitzier shadows of the old hate radio days. In his day Fr. Coughlin's following was a national menace against the fight against fascism. Our coporate deified lunatics ARE fascism, not just its harbingers. That some receive scripts and others crackers makes little difference in their Planned Parrothood confrerie.

The rage and fear causes one to listen in amazement as they sputter echoes of the truth into twisted diatribes. It's as if you found someone robbing your bank and he turned his gun on you and said "I caught you, you crook. You can't be trusted with the people's money!"

And they have reason to fear, because any nut can enthuse a large crowd and seize the spotlight. And the boring people who actually rule need that service to work their black magic too. So you are a nut with a hundred thousand little nuts. Such are still doomed one way or the other and their frenzied fear and rage will not die until the planet does- and according to Christianity, not even then. Whatever. The goats cannot win the hearts and minds of normal people, the silenced majority. They cannot cope with the real world or survive. By their actions, the fearful or reactionary always guarantee the triumph of those very fears starting inside their innermost being. Blindness is their only shield.

But they just may take us all down with them, blaming us, the truth, and the God they cannot recognize, all the way down.

And you can take that to the septic tank or Free Republic.

65. who cares?

Who cares what some moronic junky says?

66. kick for limboxy - now a matter of record...

or should i say...FIX

sympathy? nope. he cashed that chip in years ago.

i do hope, however, that he comes out of this as less of a demagogue scumbag. maybe getting off the smack will help him see the world as it actually is...
