Is Rush a "Gonzo" journalist?

[Dr Fate]

He's hip- he's fat- he's STONED IMMACULATE!!! He's like a Fabulous Furry Freak Brother come to life- with a microphone! FAR OUT MAAAN!

I love to hear old "Cosmic Charlie" Limbaugh spin his blissed out line...it's like- WOW MAN!

One time I saw GOD while listening to EIB radio- I mean it's THAT psychedelic!!!

Who said Republicans cant have fun with some "insense and peppermints?"

Here are some totally freaky quotes from the 70's Elvis of talk radio:

"Tax cuts really blow my mind, maaan..."

"Whoaa dude- dont bogart that private school voucher..."

"My formally nicotined stained fingers are now stained with resin- and it's some good black tar, I tell ya...."

"Where's my 'glass dick?'- I need a hit of CRACK!!!!"

"War protestors are like, crazy bald-heads, and we gonna run dem outta town..."

"Excuse me- while I kiss this guy!"

"Like, I went on a SPIRIT journey and a saw Richard Nixon, and he, like sprouted 3 heads and we discussed the necessity of nuclear proliferation...my totem animal is Elephant with a TOP HAT...and a monocle- can you DIG IT!!!"

Good ol "Tokes" Limbaugh-it's a true out of body experience every time...

1. Yes he is...

just wait for the encore.

[pinkpops]

2. define "gonzo"

If it means "big fat idiot" I say he is gonzo.

[Clete]

3. He says he's an entertainer when his ass is on the line.

Gonzo journalist is giving him too much credit. The man is not a journalist but a racist hate monger. I don't find him entertaining either.

4. I imagine his face is in the toilet bowl a lot lately

actually I have no knowledge of what kinds
of reactions take place to withdrawal to opiates but
this visual does come to mind.

5. He merely balances it with booze and a cocktail of other drugs...

So he can "plane out" Can you dig it?

7. Faantastic Quotes, Man!!

I never knew the man was, like, so hip! The Brother is Groovin', Jack!

8. A Dittohead Christmas

Rush is going to be away for a long time, possibly till Christmas. I'm planning a weekly reminder so the dittoheads can prepare themselves for his return. That way they can ratchet up the nastiness because the Oxy Con Man will be back telling them The Answers.

9. Nah...

Being the Right Wing Hunter Thompson is P.J O'Rourke's (extremely cynical) schtick. Rush just sits on his can in a windowless studio bellowing into a microphone. He's no "journalist" in any sense of the term.
