Limbaugh: "I think Obama wants me to fail"

[sabra]

http://www.bostonherald.com/news/us_politics/view/2009_01_26_Rush_Limbaugh_fires_back_at_Obama_criticism/

<snip>

According to Limbaugh, Obama “basically told them stop listening to me. That’s not how things get done in Washington. We can’t let Rush Limbaugh stall the stimulus plan.”

Limbaugh, heard locally on WRKO-AM (680), said today that Obama’s more frightened of him than Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) and House Minority leader John Boehner (R-Ohio).

“He’s obviously more frightened of me than he is Mitch McConnell. He’s more frightened of me, then he is of say, John Boehner, which doesn’t say much about our party,” Limbaugh said.

Limbaugh today planned to unveil his own bipartisan plan to “resolve the fight over the stimulus package.”

“I think Obama wants me to fail,” Limbaugh said. “President Obama, by telling you and the elected Republicans in Washington to not listen to me because I am not how things get done in Washington, he has said that he wants me to fail.”

1. FAIL!

nt

[roguevalley]

58. someone confuses the size of his you know what with the extent

that anyone gives a damn. Poor widdow baby.

[boobooday]

2. Too late Rush, you are a big fat failure

If it weren't for the sleep number bed and a bunch of "computer security" scams, you'd have NO advertisers. Oh, and the federal gov't agencies that I hear sponsoring your show, a revenue stream that I hope will end soon.

[totodeinhere]

36. He has the highest rated talk show by far.

No progressive talker comes even close to his numbers. So how is he a failure?

[boobooday]

48. I don't have time to count all the ways

But I have researched it, and he is a subsidized failure as a radio host.

He is a failure as a human being (there is a long string of evidence for this).

Believe me, if a progressive talker had benefited from the vertically integrated media marketing machine that Rush had behind him, they could be where he is right now.

[totodeinhere]

50. He is a multimillionaire. If that's failure, I wish I were a failure too.

[boobooday]

51. Dick Cheney is also a multimillionaire

If you want to sell YOUR soul, perhaps you could be one too.

[TheBigotBasher]

59. Yes please

Although we havea established Church in the UK, most citizens are now pretty agnostic. Whereas in the US, you still have a great deal of church goers, so I am guessing the price of one somewhat abused soul, may still be quite high.

Multimillionaire sounds fine. Especially given current £-$ exchange rates.

[PlanetBev]

67. He is a failure ,Toto

He's ugly and no one wants to fuck him.

He has to go to the Dominican Republic with Viagra and fuck underage prostituted kids.

[totodeinhere]

70. LOL.

With his millions, I'm sure he can find all the sex he wants without going to another country. Money and power can be an aphrodisiac for some people.

I agree that Limballs is a jerk and I agree with Obama's comments about him. But unfortunately, in our society, few people would disagree with the notion that multimillionaire = success, not failure.

[calimary]

3. Hey rush, ASSUMING what you say is true (and that's making a colossal assumption),

Obama's not the only one who wants you to fail. The line forms to THE LEFT, and it's longer than you realize. Asshole. TRAITOROUS, ANTI-AMERICAN Asshole, that is.

It would be good for the whole country, and for our future, if you did fail. Personally, I'd be THRILLED!!!

Just remember, rush dear, the bigger they are...and all that.

4. One arrest from Obama would shut Rush up.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

8. !!!!!!!

exactly. :applause:

[NickB79]

5. Bipartisan implies that he can find Democrats willing to sign their names next to his

[nini]

6. Does he really think he can outsmart Obama?

:rofl: This is going to be fun. :D

[jsamuel]

7. Rush's "plan" is to give everyone who voted for Obama a plan

and all the people who voted for McCain the other.

This just goes to show how there is no way in heck Obama could be more afraid of his incompetence at making "plans."

[Jennicut]

9. News flash to Rush...you already have.

Neoconservatism is dead.

[BlooInBloo]

10. The biggest fail of all is not realizing that you're a fail.

[lumberjack_jeff]

11. Of course we do. The difference is that your failure won't take the country down too.

Quite the opposite, in fact.

[dancingme]

12. What Denny's parking lot is he frequenting now?

[whistle]

13. Just stop tuning into Limbaugh and he will implode like one of those

...huge Pillsbury Dough Boy balloons that has a ruptured seam

[roseBudd]

14. So now Limbaugh is the fourth branch of government?

[Cabcere]

19. I hear his ass boil has its own congressman. n/t

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

31. Good one.

[baldguy]

15. Osama bin Laden - Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - Rush Limbaugh

We can't let people who work for America's destruction to influence public policy.

[Beaverhausen]

16. Who wants who to fail?

Wasn't it Rush who wants Obama to fail?

Oh dear, he's back on the Oxy...

[John Q. Citizen]

17. Limbaugh/Palin in 2012! Please great Buddah let it be so.

[Sebastian Doyle]

25. Don't be asking Buddha for something like that

Unless you know he can knock out the Diebold machines! :)

[John Q. Citizen]

49. In a fair fight I'd love to run against Rush.

[treestar]

18. You already failed, Rushbo!

The past 16 years of your bloviating have not gotten you a permanent Republican majority and a permanent Republican President, have they? You started failing in 2006, and now your failure is complete.

You are irrelevant.

[RDANGELO]

20. Supposedly, he is the voice of the Republican Party.

Considering that his party has lost miserably in the last two elections, I would say, he already is a failure. I don't think he realizes what a dinosaur he is.

[maxrandb]

28. Can we please read this quote

“He’s obviously more frightened of me than he is Mitch McConnell. He’s more frightened of me, then he is of say, John Boehner, which doesn’t say much about our party,” Limbaugh said.

AND STOP PRETENDING THAT HE ISN'T A "5 DAY-A-WEEK-IN-KIND" CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY!!!????

In his own quote, he admits that the Repub Party is "his" party. He's not even trying to scam the folks anymore. He's nothing but a paid shill for the Repuke Party, and everytime he opens his pie-hole Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi should deduct the average cost of 3 hours of advertising from the Republican Congressional Staff budget.

[Z_I_Peevey]

32. I think its official. Limbaugh is the head of the Republicans.

He speaks for the Republicans.

Repeat it often.

Oh, and BTW, I hear he's a hardcore junkie pedophile as well.

[maxrandb]

74. Well, it sure as heck

wasn't the Democrats who made this "Ass-pickle" an "Honorary Member of Congress" in 1994, was it?

He's gotten away with his tired old shit for way toooooooo long.

And for the few DU'ers who want to lecture me about "Free Speech" and "Censorship"....How do you feel about monopolies or anti-trust laws.

This prick is on every "effing" channel that Clear Channel owns, and that's about the entire "effing" radio spectrum

Someone explain to me how this current set-up of talk radio serves the "public interest"?

[mitchum]

72. That'sbecause McConnell has no chin, while Limbaugh has three of them

[DRoseDARs]

21. Rush, if it makes you feel better, I want your heart to fail, you fat fuck.

OD'ing on your ill-gotten pain meds would be acceptable, too.

[ObamaKerryDem]

22. Comedian Rush Limbaugh is getting massively pwned by President Obama ..

and I am lovin' every second of it! :evilgrin: Bet Keith has some fun with this tonight. :D

[ellacott]

23. Wasn't there a Republican who wrote a column telling people not tolisten to Rush

Also, Colin Powell criticized him.

[FSogol]

35. Didn't Newt say that Repubs needed to stop listening to Limbaugh's nonsense? n/t

[ellacott]

39. Yes, that's it

It WAS Newt.

[cooolandrew]

24. Wow, Limbaugh worked it out. Fair's fair Rush if you want him to fail he feels likewise.>

In what instance would he want the guy that plays Barack the magic 'n' word to succeed. The wonderful world of Rush or maybe not so wonderful.

[Dappleganger]

26. They're not even in the same arena, and never will be.

Limbaugh is a fat blowhard with no education who could never make it in politics. He's a failed wannabe, just like the people who listen to him. Typical overweight armchair quarterback, screaming at the refs and making calls from the comfort of his mcmansion. He's only an entertainer, he makes money by being controversial and is inconsequential.

[Forkboy]

27. Jesus. this nutbag is discovering new depths of stupidity previously unknown by man.

What an idjit.

[zehnkatzen]

29. I want you to fail too, you hypocritcal bastich. n/t k/r

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

30. I don't want to see Limpy fail - just want his fat ass off the air. Let him succeed at dog catching.

[Teaser]

33. Please. Rush fails every day

when he attempts to locate his pen0r.

[liberalmuse]

34. Oh WAAAAAAH.

STFU you fat, boil-infested toxic waste dump.

[Politicalboi]

37. Since we have Obama in office now

I bet someone could find the little boys Rush visits when he's in the DR with Viagra and Oxy. To expose him for being the pedophile he is, that would do him in. They could have a picture of his boil and ask have you seen this man? There's got to be someone who knows something.

[mtnsnake]

38. Well, DUH, you ignorant fuck, of course he wants your hateful ass to fail.

You're about to go under you slimy perverted asshole.

[mitchum]

40. That's funny...I want Limbaugh to overdose and die

[AspenRose]

41. President Obama isn't the only one wanting you to fail, you un-American ass

[EraOfResponsibility]

42. I knew that FAT FUCK was gonna think Obama was afraid of him

NOW his already bloated ego is gonna grow exponentially (sp?)

[Monk06]

43. Fail. Obama just got Rush to reveal that he has an overinflated ego. As if O's every thought is

about a cruel, obese, cigar chomping caricature like
Rush Limbaugh

[TooRaLoo]

44. I hope Limbaugh talks forever

I can't stand him, but he sure exposes the mindset of a lot of Freepers. He's getting more and more desperate and loony.

[CitizenPatriot]

45. I doubt he is that classless, Rush

however, it really isn't the same thing -- unless you woke up this AM thinking yourself to be the POTUS after one too many pills?

See, it's not treason when we wish you to fail, like it is when you wish our new President to fail in his attempt to save this country from your people's failed policies.

[TooRaLoo]

46. On the VERY long list of things that are important to our President,

Sorry, Rush, you don't make the cut. No one cares!

[Aristus]

47. Rush failed...

...to convince me that an anal cyst is justification enough for keeping his fat, cowardly ass out of Vietnam. B-)

[Deja Q]

52. Winners don't use drugs.

And especially don't abuse them, cheat to get them when you're not supposed to.

Rush, you don't need anybody's help. You failed. A long time ago.

[Arkana]

53. Wow, I agree with you, O Fat One!

So do millions of other people who think you're a bloated gasbag of hatred.

[cherish44]

54. I doubt the elected officials in Washington listen to Rush

Let's face it, MOST of them (I won't say all) possess IQs in the triple digits. Rush's followers consist of the most stupid and gullible individuals our society has to offer.

[Splinter Cell]

56. I don't know about the president....

But I sure as hell want him to fail. Jackass.

[City of Mills]

57. Can a Republican make a point without

using some derivative of the concept of fear? It's always about being afraid of what Obama will do, or Democrats being afraid of Republicans, or being afraid of muslims, mushroom clouds, taxes, teachers, peace, prosperity, race, religion etc. There's always something to fear, or be afraid of. It's childish and immature. Stop fearing the world, Republicans. Deal with it.

[BrklynLiberal]

60. pigboy is irrelevant thanks to his own assinine behavior

[frogmarch]

61. STFU Rush,

you piece of shit.

[AndrewP]

62. I think I want Limpbaugh to stroke out as soon as possible

[Froward69]

65. I am with you

Obamas next step is to send sides of bacon to rush. as "Pork" for rush to complain about.

I also think people should send Rush Oxycontin Anonymously.

Sooner rather than later rush will stroke out, heart attack or Just a plain ol' OD.

[Qutzupalotl]

63. It's not unpatriotic to want traitors to fail.

[1776Forever]

64. Rush Limbaugh is as low as they go - (no offense to other they's out there) Read on for more......

Limbaugh: Obama "little black man-child"

http://www.brendan-nyhan.com/blog/2008/08/limbaugh-obama.html

Rush Limbaugh called Barack Obama a "little black man-child" yesterday, invoking cultural stereotypes which infantilize black men:

"Obama's patriotism is not being attacked in an ad. McCain's just out there saying he's putting his own personal political ambition ahead of the country's. It's -- you know, it's just -- it's just we can't hit the girl. I don't care how far feminism's saying, you can't hit the girl, and you can't -- you can't criticize the little black man-child. You just can't do it, 'cause it's just not right. It's not fair. He's such a victim."

Previously, Limbaugh compared Obama to a "little boy," attributing this view to "some women" who "want to protect him":

"He can't take a punch, he's weak, and he whines. I’m sure some women find that attractive because they would look at him as a little boy and would want to protect him … But it embarrasses me as a man."

It's loathsome stuff. Remember how many elites associate with this man despite his long history of offensive comments about race (among other things). Just a few weeks ago, all three Bushes (41, 43, and Jeb) called in to congratulate Limbaugh his 20th anniversary of broadcasting. In 2002, he was a commentator for NBC on Election Night. NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams said in 2005 "it's my duty to listen to Rush." And Katie Couric asked Limbaugh to contribute a "free speech" segment to CBS Evening News in 2006.

.........

And THIS bigoted A-holes on our Troops Armed Forces radio's!

[Autumn]

66. Wrong Rush, I WANT you to fail, Obama is above that

and I would call you a douchbag, but a douchbag is useful, unlike you.

[PlanetBev]

68. Just when I thought I couldn't hate Pigboy more

Wish to hell he'd walk by a microwave oven and his cocklear ear transplant would short out.

Please Rush, next time you go to the Dominican Republic to fuck children, please come back with jungle rot.

[TheKentuckian]

69. Rush failing is good for America.

Hell, it is even good for the Republican.

[AwakeAtLast]

71. OMG, Rush actually gets it this time!!!!

BWHAHAHAHAH!

Amazing!

[MadMaddie]

73. Typical of Repugs now Rush is whining and playing the very

victim that he has scorned for the last 20 years.


Get ready folks cause the real whining hasn't started yet...:popcorn:

[LynneSin]

75. Along with the rest of us - yeppers

File that one under "No Shit Sherlock"
