Rush Limbaugh: "Pat, why didn't you include Castro?"

[kilo]

Yesterday on Rush's show, he said he wanted to "tweak the main stream media" about Pat Robertson's calling for the assasination of the president of Venezuela by saying: "Pat, why didn't you include Castro?"

I guess it didn't work. I haven't seen any outrage over the comment, have you guys?

1. I think people are so used to hateful, venomous bluster...

from that vile, disgusting, trough-feeding pig that no one reacts to it.

:argh: :argh: :argh:

2. You forgot druggie. nt

3. You won't see any of these guys apologizing for their

comments, that's for damn sure! It's such a frustrating double standard!

4. Why doesn't Rush take his fat Oxy ass down there and try himself

or will his anal cyst prevent him from doing it again this time?

[ewagner]

5. He was jealous

that Pat was getting all the attention and this was a pathetic attempt to steal Pat's "limelight"....

Rush can't stand NOT being the center of attention.

[Why Syzygy]

6. There is evidently money in creating outrage

Today, Mr. Chávez was visiting Mr. Castro in Havana, where he shrugged off Mr. Robertson's assassination call. But Mr. Castro, standing beside the Venezuelan president, said of Mr. Robertson's remarks, "I think only God can punish crimes of such magnitude."

7. LBJ tried to whack Castro several times

(exploding cigars and a wet suit with some kind of skin poison, since Castro liked to SCUBA dive)

Kissinger/Nixon whacked President Allende of Chile in the 1970s.

We whacked the president of Viet Nam to install Dieu in the 1960's.

Scottie McClelland's predecessor called on Iraqis to whack Saddam before the invasion (remember his 'one silver bullet would take care of the problem' statement?)

So when Robertson, who is close to this administration, makes such public utterances, its not just some whacko talking out of turn. He probably knows that the administration has this in the works and he couldn't help but open his big yap to show how smart he is, or more likely to pretend that Gawd told him it was gonna happen before it did to be more like the prophet he pretends to be.

This country is sick.

8. And his sorry ass gets a free pass to spew his crap to our troops overseas
