Limbaugh spreads Clinton Body Count urban Legend 9/26

[scoobiedavis]

I was listening to Limbaugh's show as I had finished writing a post on the "Limbaugh's full of (expletive deleted)" comment first recorded on DU. The story is here: http://www.scoobiedavis.blogspot.com/2003_09_01_scoobiedavis_archive.html#106459216926407706

It was at the end of the first hour of Limbaugh's show on 9/26 when Limbaugh noted how many around the Clintons died under mysterious circumstances and that might explain why the Democratic presidential candidates are allegedly afraid to cross them about their supposed support for Wesley Clark. Unfortuantely, the tape I was recording it on ran out and I didn't record the comments, but in the second hour, Limbaugh said, "Howard Dean, John Kerry afraid to go after the Clintons and that's understandable, given the history of what people who have crossed the Clintons have had happen to them."

Anyone who knows the kook right knows this is the urban legend The Clinton Body Count which was an idea that Scaife subsidized and is common to find on the Freeper web site. It's sheer paranoia. This is a good article on it http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/outrage/clinton.htm

Did anyone record the first hour of Limbaugh's show who can give me a transcript of these comments for my web site? thanks

According to Snellius it was:

"How many people do you know that have suddenly -- how do I say this -- died? Not very many, I would think. But, with the Clintons, quite a few."

3. I know that Bush has 303 on his body count...

...as well at the 2885 who did at the Trade Towers, the 100+ at the pentagon, and the plane that crashed in Pennsylvania.

Man, clinton can't even compare.
