My fantasy re Rush Limbotomy

[Speck Tater]

Did you see the movie 28 Days with Sandra Bullock? She went into detox/rehab and came out of the experience totally transformed.

In my fantasy Rush Limbotomy goes into detox, makes contact with his inner child, learns to confront his irrational fears head on, experiences a deep personal transformation and emerges 28 days later as a liberal.

Would that be cool?

1. It would be good for Rush personally

but his program would be dropped. You see, it isn't about Rush. It's about his message. If Rush doesn't deliver the message of his corporate masters, someone else will. There has never been a shortage of people willing to sell their soul for money.

2. *My* fantasy: Rush in "28 Days Later"

...being chased by plague-infected zombies, then cornered, and eaten whole!

Your fantasy is indeed cool. I just like the ending of mine better. :-)

3. I'm afraid the repukes would use the transformation...

...as a way of juxtaposing the dangers of addiction with their own negative views of the left. "Look what drugs did to this poor man - turned him into a liberal!" Like that.

Besides, I think we're better off with his stuttering, non-backin'-up-his-propaganda ass representing the right instead of the left.

4. Did you see "Requiem for a Dream" starring Ellen Burstyn?

That's my fantasy re our portly pill-poppin' pal.

5. Has there been any confirmation that he actually did have back

surgery 5-6 years ago?

6. me too, janx

Exactly what I thought. 5-6 years ago I listened daily just to see what the enemy was up to and NEVER remember hearing him talk about a back operation, pain, or anything of the kind, then or now. Wouldn't he have been complaining then and all these years if he had all this problem with his back.

7. Lots of people pointed out that if his back hurt him so much

how come he was a regular golfer?

Rush Limbaugh Claimed He Had No Physical Limitations When Playing Golf, Even Though He Says Lower Back Pain Was the Cause of His Becoming a Junky on Illegal Drugs

He's a hypocritial liar on so many levels...

8. But surely he wouldn't be so foolish as to make it up...?

That would be insane! He'd have to know that people would try to check up on the story.
