Limbaugh: The Dem Presidential Candidates Are "Metrosexuals"

[CO Liberal]

That's apparantly a term someone recently coined to refer to straights who pretend to be gay.

Rush is lower than whale shit. Three hours a day of hate speech.

[kwolf68]

1. Rush

No longer makes me angry. He's just a hypocritcal windbag and a complete clown.

His lies and distortions have been so exposed that its almost a waste of time discussing this guy anymore. He's pathetic.

[goddess40]

8. His 'ditto heads' upset me more

The complete stupidity of these mindless groupies disgusts and saddens me.
Rush is just a whinebaby windbag who grabs attention by putting on airs and acting like he is better than everyone else. (just like O'Reilly)

[bluestateguy]

2. Is he on drugs?

Oh, wait, that's not funny. HE IS!!!

[ignatius]

40. And That is the beautiful irony here. The ditto-head's straight

talking,tell it like it is guru, has been spouting drug addled musings for the last 4 years(at least) and they lap it up like mama's milk.

It's pretty darn hilarious if it wasn't so pathetic.

[StephNW4Clark]

3. Metrosexuals

apparently, Alex Rodriguez of the Texas Rangers and David Beckham of Real Madrid are also metrosexuals.

So if Rush says our candidates are metrosexuals, I guess that means they're famous, handsome well-dressed guys. Not so bad :)

[Oberst Klink]

10. What about homosexuals pretending to be straight.

Has someone coined a term (not a phrase) for this?

[thebigidea]

13. yeah, "sad"

[meegbear]

16. SAD?!?!?!

This "straight acting" homosexual would like to have a word with you.

[thebigidea]

21. and that word would be?

it wasn't "straight acting"

the poster said "pretending to be straight"

ie, being a hypocrite.

Obviously, I wasn't posting some deranged notion that if a guy didn't camp it up to the gills and utter Warholian "Fabulous! Oooo how Glamorous!" comments he was sad.

[Oberst Klink]

20. S.A.D.?

Straight Acting D????????

G.A.S.

Gay Acting Stright?

[webtrainer]

42. We know for certain he's a . . .

GAS-BAG

[leesa]

14. You mean...like Rush?

[Evil_Dewers]

41. LOL!

Rush has no children. He's a closet homo. He can't stay married. He pays his ex-wives millions to keep them quiet about his homosexuality. NTTAWWT (Not that there's anything wrong with that). He'd be a lot happier if he'd come out of the closet. Then he wouldn't have to suppress his sexual urges with thousands of narcotic pills.

Rush just said on the radio he had to go to the bathroom--to snort/smoke some more ground up Oxycontin.

He needs more cabbage for another MOTHERLODE!!!

[mithnanthy]

53. um...

You mean like Bunnypants...the cheerleader?

[goddess40]

18. I can think of one but it would be nasty to print it here

it would be seen as a slam on church leaders

edit:
if they are 'pretending' then I guess the term would be repressed. It is to sad that people can't be who they are.

[Zero Gravitas]

38. Rush "talent on loan from a bottle of pills" Limbaugh

fits that description and he calls himself "A Conservative".

[jab105]

4. Listen to Thom Hartmann instead...

much more productive way to spend your afternoon!

[Cha]

6. How's Gainsville?

:)

[Bozita]

11. Hartmann has Paul Krugman coming up...

...in the next hour.

[Cha]

5. And what's rush.....besides...a Big Fat, pill poppin, hate spewin',

Lard Ass, Idiot?

[nannygoat]

7. I was channel surfing this past weekend and happened upon

one of those shows about the rich and famous ("It's great to be ________________", I think) about Schwarzenegger. In the few minutes I watched, they referred to Schwarzenegger as a "metrosexual" because he is so used to being pampered and catered to (they said he has to have his regular pedicure and only has the finest haircuts, wears the finest clothes, blah, blah, blah).

[Maple]

9. They don't

pretend to be gay, they just believe in good grooming and not being slobs.

Strange charge coming from a radio host who has had plastic surgery, diets using drugs, and wears very expensive suits.

[Supply Side Jesus]

12. metrosexual is a straight male with a sense of style

not that Rush the pill popping, lying closet homosexual himself would know anything about it.

I heard a story on NPR about marketing targeting metrosexuals, guys who really pay great attention to style and other narcissistic activities.

[Terwilliger]

33. it's another label in order to divide people

I wish you folks would stop playing into it

[tishaLA]

15. The NYTimes first used the metrosexual term, IIRC

to refer to ambiguously str8 men. You know, straight guys who use moisturizer and good hair care products.

Rush is perverting the term--of course--because of his moronic mind.

[izzie]

17. OH Rush is a closet homo I am sure.

If not he is the most womenly man I have ever heard. He is always off on some sex thing that seems to turn him on. My God I had better not say this under my name. What can I call my self? Please a new name now.:scared: :scared: :scared:

[West Coast Democrat]

19. Rush really needs to go on "Queer Eye"

he looks like a freak!

[Darth_Kitten]

25. haha.....

he sure could use a real makeover. :)

[patdem]

36. Sniper kitty...first I've seen since the dump of Davis...love that sniper!

[Terwilliger]

22. Rush is like other dim conservatives...

they talk about other people having sex because they can't get any themselves

Hell, even Rush's hand won't have anything to do with him

[bif]

23. Does he ever say ANYTHING positive?

about anyone? Just curious. I've never listened to Hate Radio so I wouldn't know.

[Darth_Kitten]

24. He's just ornery......

cause Kerry got in that fantastic shot in about him and everyone LAUGHED!!! :)

[lbailey]

27. Sen. Kerry looks like a metrosexual.

You gotta admite that Sen Kerry does look like a metrosexual. He's got the nice hair, nice nails, nice skin. I mean his shoes match his belt -- much like my gay brother.

[West Coast Democrat]

30. Kerry?

I think Edwards is better groomed

[lbailey]

39. You may be onto something.

After running a "google" search on Sen. Edwards; I have to admit that Sen. Edwards is better groomed then Sen. Kerry.

28. Maureen Dowd Applied "metrosexual" to Bush, Rummy, Arnie

Is Arnold Schwarzenegger metrosexual?

Everybody was watching the big guy at the debate on Wednesday night to see whether his high-priced handlers had managed to mold all that muscly clay into Serious Arnold. The tyro Tyrolean pol had to offer more to California voters than the same message he gave to the distressed Linda Hamilton in "Terminator 2": "Come with me if you want to liff."

Let other reporters poke Mr. S. to see if he can go deep; I wanted to see if he can go light. At a cafe the other night, I asked Arnold if he's a metrosexual. Puffing on his stogie, he looked uncertain but intrigued. "A metrosexual," I explained, "is a guy who likes traditionally female activities: manicures, shopping." Unlike most soup-stained politicians, this Republican clearly spends time grooming. In person, he looks a little unreal, like a top-of-the-line Madame Tussaud figure: taut skin, buffed nails, designer shades.

New York Times, September 25, 2003, Thursday

On the defense secretary: "In his own sort of antediluvian way, Rummy is a metrosexual. He works. He may be a warmonger, he may be intemperate, but just about every third woman I know wants him."
...
"Everything else about him just shouts 'Butch, butch, butch!' But to throw Bush a metrosexual bone, whenever you see him walking off Air Force One with that little furball Barney under his arm, that canine puff of air that most drag queens wouldn't be caught dead with, it's like he's halfway to a Chanel rabbit fur handbag.

New York Times, August 3, 2003

29. metrosexual is. . . .

metrosexual
(MET.roh.sek.shoo.ul) n. A dandyish narcissist in love with not only himself, but also his urban lifestyle; a straight man who is in touch with his feminine side.
—metrosexuality n.

Example Citation:


The only problem facing the metrosexual in an otherwise carefree existence is the inescapable effects of ageing. If 30 is 45 in gay years, then 26 is retirement age for the metrosexual — and no amount of biotechnological, rehydrating, whale sperm dermo-care can alter that.
—Jonathan Trew, "I love me so much," The Scotsman, July 24, 2002

Backgrounder:
Mark Simpson invented this term in 1994 (see the earliest citation, below), but it has been picked up by numerous media outlets, including The Observer, The Herald, and Maclean's magazine. Here's Simpson's succinct description of the metrosexual type that appeared recently in the Salon.com online magazine:



The typical metrosexual is a young man with money to spend, living in or within easy reach of a metropolis — because that's where all the best shops, clubs, gyms and hairdressers are. He might be officially gay, straight or bisexual, but this is utterly immaterial because he has clearly taken himself as his own love object and pleasure as his sexual preference. Particular professions, such as modeling, waiting tables, media, pop music and, nowadays, sport, seem to attract them but, truth be told, like male vanity products and herpes, they're pretty much everywhere.
—Mark Simpson, "Meet the metrosexual,"

44. That's has to be

the most stupid hybrid word I've ever heard.

Metrosexual? Sounds like someone who likes to get it on with subway cars!

Why do we feel the need to keep coming up with labels for everyone?

[Evil_Dewers]

31. Rush is a strung out junkie...

After his show is cancelled and he's spent all his money on Oxycontin, he'll be selling his ass for a hit. He would have to suck so much dick to satisfy that Oxy habit that he'd break Nina Hartley's record.

He judges everyone else, now it is time to judge him.

The Bible

Luke 6:37
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.

The Bible according to Rush

Rush 9:11
Drug use, some might say, is destroying this country...And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up.

[wtmusic]

34. Don't listen to Pigboy

Pointless.

[supernova]

43. Does he think 'Metrosexual'

is some sort of insult? So there are guys who like to be stylish? So what?

I would so love to see Rush get a Queer Eye makeover!

[eleny]

45. So, guys who practise good grooming...

are now going to be labeled? And what's so bad about being homosexual in the first place?

After only a few days of listening to parts of his program, I hope he drops dead. No wonder the country is so divided, he feeds the beast five times a week. No wonder he's rotting from within.

[Cat Atomic]

46. Ok, Rush. But you're still a junkie.

:)

[madrchsod]

47. isn`t it amazing that

rush doesn`t have a morals clause in his contract? i bet every radio person in america has one but him..but i guess,when god tells you what to say ,you don`t need a morals clause...

[Kahuna]

48. He calls Clark, "Ashley Wilkes," Dean is, "Nikita Dean," and

Kerry is the "French-looking Kerry." :eyes:

[Evil_Dewers]

49. And Rush is the "strung out junkie who has to run to the bathroom"

during his show. His Oxy high must be wearing off.

[eleny]

50. What's next - Rush fart alerts?

52. It has little to do with Political Correctness

It has more to do with being a gentleman rather than a rightwing ass.

[shanti]

55. again, who cares?

why are you giving him a platform?

[Must_B_Free]

56. Pot calling the Kettle Black, hmmm Jeff Christie?
