K&R if you hope Rush's kidneys don't faill.

[Perky]

He may be a bastard, but how can you wish that on anyone???

[no_hypocrisy]

1. However, I wouldn't have a problem with a nasty rash where he can't reach it.

[badgerpup]

88. I HEARD that poison oak...

...on a guy's junk is just about as nasty as it can get...
because it comes with the fear that even if you cut the damn thing off, it will...not...stop...ITCHING!

:evilgrin:

Not that I'd azackly wish this on anybody...



I've had poison oak on my legs and arms. That's bad enough (and yes, I WAS considering a skinning knife as a remedy!) so I've some idea whereof I spea...er...type. :yoiks:

[Schema Thing]

2. Is there something worse I can wish for him?

[peace13]

If he continues to do drugs eventually his kidneys will talk back.

Not a wish but if it happens it is his own fault not anyone else's.

[kenfrequed]

86. Exactly

Actions have consequences which we need neither celebrate nor tear our shirts over.

That said I did go out and have a drink when Jesse Helms died. I think I can manage that again if I should have to.

[LaurenG]

3. I just ignore him and skip having to hear/read about the crummy things he says. nt

[ecstatic]

4. I'm neutral. I don't wish him well or ill nt

[jobycom]

In joke world it's funny. In real life, no, I don't wish that on anyone. nt

[Cary]

5. Funny, but I just posted something related to this elsewhere.

I don't wish it on him or on anyone.

But, if it has to happen to someone, . . .

[graywarrior]

6. I hope he gets eternal turkey squats

[Cha]

It was a JOKE..surely

fuckhead can take a JOKE?

[MadMaddie]

60. That's just it about bully's they can't take a joke when it's on them

Let the "Whine" begin....screw them!

[Reterr]

77. Yup-a joke and the kind he makes all the time

Can dish it out but can't take it?

[abluelady]

7. I Don't Care What Happens to Rush

but to my way of thinking his wanting Obama to fail affects a much wider group of people. There would be a much bigger loss if Obama fails than if Rush's kidneys fail.

[Kajsa]

8. I don't wish that on anyone.

But I sure despise that creep!

btw, One of my cats died from kidney failure six weeks ago.

Like I said, I don't wish that on anyone.

:(

[Captain Hilts]

9. Here's one vote for us not being as mean and cruel as Rush is and not supporting those who are. nt

[Happyhippychick]

10. I wish he would lose his ability to talk and I'd love for him to live to 100

[JaneQPublic]

11. I hope his little blue pills fail (nt)

[FloridaJudy]

20. Amen!

I hope his career fails. Seeing him try to make ends meet as a Walmart greater seems fitting.

[Faryn Balyncd]

12. I'm confident 90% of the folks here at DU would donate one or both of their own kidneys to Rush....

We support the work of all men of good will.

[truebrit71]

14. I never wish such things, but do admit that it seems a mild punishment for all that hatred.

[vaberella]

15. I don't wish that on him. B/c he has enough money to be put on a list &

that would take away from those more valuable citizens in need of kidneys.

[dionysus]

16. kidney failure's too good for him... leprosy, now that's the ticket!!!

[yourguide]

17. I am splitting the difference on this one

Kicking both threads, I support Wanda's right to free speech but I personally do not hope Rush Limbaugh, or anyone elses, kidneys fail. Karma will bite him on the ass.

[JVS]

18. I sure the hell can

[FailureToCommunicate]

19. My brother just died of kidney failure - related to cancer- and I do believe Rush's

name came up near the end, but I can't quite remember exactly...
Rain falls on the just as well as the unjust alike. God, even if we'd sometimes wish Her to, does not play favorites.

[polmaven]

21. I totally agree with you....

I think we sound more like FR when we start that kind of thinking. We are above that kind of thing.

K&R!!!

[RoadRage]

22. Somehow.. i just don't see this one hitting the greatest page...

Dems might be all "hope & peace" but even we have limits!

In a realated post the "Thoughts & Prayers for Osama Bin Laden" thread isn't doing all that well either. ;) J/K

[Zynx]

23. I only don't wish it because I think he does us a lot of good.

[bunnies]

24. What kind of person would wish that on someone?!

Thats almost as hateful as something Rush would say.

[scheming daemons]

25. Can I wish for him to have permanent erectile disfunction? Or am I too late?

[jefferson_dem]

26. Nah...

K/R. :)

[SemiCharmedQuark]

27. I don't wish specific harm to him, but I'm not going to pretend I hope and wish for his wellbeing.

Neither will I lie and say that if something did happen to him I'd throw pennies down the well until he got better.

[denem]

28. K&R

[Still Sensible]

29. You're right. I'd rather he pulled his lower lip

up over his head and then swallowed... hard.

[Fire1]

30. Don't have to. God and Karma will take care of him in a way

I never could.

[Ikonoklast]

31. I hope he lives a long, long time.

Long enough to see that he and his kind have lost.

Just another old, sad, bitter dead-ender mumbling about 'the good old days' while the rest of us and our nation look forward.

[otohara]

33. Alzheimer's Too!

ahhh....

[endarkenment]

34. He would be forced into the long-existing public health care system

for kidney transplants and dialysis. The irony alone is sufficient justification. The medicare ESRD program has been in place since 1973 and provides nearly universal coverage for all americans with end stage renal disease. Oddly enough, the right wing takes a big shut the fuck up about this program as it is SOCIALIZED HEALTH CARE and it really isn't bad at all and it takes care of almost everyone and it doesn't choose your doctors, and there is no alternative.

[grantcart]

35. We need him alive to live through the "trial of Dick Cheney".

[endarkenment]

36. Oh and by the way "wishing" has no effect. nt.

[Arugula Latte]

48. ... nor does praying. nt

[tridim]

37. I hope his body fails his kidneys

and his kidneys wise up and just leave.

[emulatorloo]

38. It was a joke to show how horrible his "I Want Obama (and the USA) to Fail" stuff is

Of course a sane compassionate person would never wish that someone's organs should fail.

Just like no sane compassionate person would wish for a President to fail.

[unblock]

39. well i hope he lives long, now // i pray the lord his soul to keep

...

but when they finally put him in the ground //
i'll stand on his grave and tramp ... the ... dirt ... down!


(apologies to d.p.a.mcmanus)

[JimGinPA]

40. How About Wishing He Got Throat Cancer? Would That Be Wrong?

I mean, maybe he could live a long life after some radical surgery, but I think maybe he has said enough already.

[Beaverhausen]

41. He hopes the country fails. He brought it on himself

and if he keeps taking all those pills, his kidneys WILL fail.

[progressoid]

42. I hope people grow a funny bone.

[Reterr]

78. Or at least less of a "I am so holier than thou and most outraged over the latest nontroversy" bone

For heaven's sake, nobody actually is wishing Limbaugh's kidneys fail etc.
But seeing a cowardly bully getting ripped on by a fairly competent comedian is always fun.

[Mz Pip]

43. If Rush's kidneys fail

it won't be bacause of anything Wanda Sykes or Barack Obama did or said. It will be because of his bloated, arrogant and self-indulgent life style.

He'll do it to himself.

[vinylsolution]

44. We need Rush alive and kicking....

... and spewing his usual brand of hateful garbage for the next 3 years, driving the few remaining Republicans over the cliff with him.

A thrice-divorced drug addict with private jets, mansions, chauffeur-driven limos and $400m in the bank is clearly not speaking for mainstream (or Main Street) America.

But he is helping more and more people realize that Conservatism was a failed and divisive doctrine, that only benefited the rich.

[Hellataz]

45. Sorry, but there are some people that would make this world a better place if they were gone.

Rush is one of those people. All he does is spread hate and fear and try and divide this country. I certainly would never take action to harm the man, but if he was struck down with illness i would not be upset one bit.

[cwydro]

46. I don't like when DUers stoop to that kind of crap.

I don't find it funny and I would never wish death or suffering on anyone just for their political views.

[Arugula Latte]

47. I don't wish his kidneys would fail ... I wish ALL his organs would fail.

[ShortnFiery]

49. ...

:spray:

[depakid]

50. I wish he his thrice the suffering that they're caused others to endure

[Vinca]

51. Okay. I'll hope for liver failure instead.

A distinct possibility given his drug history. Remember, people, this is a guy who advocates killing the liberals.

[jgraz]

53. Good choice. That'll take him out a lot faster.

[8 track mind]

52. i would prefer rush getting "outed" or something similar

and have a Huuuuuuuge fall from grace. I would love for him to wind up on shortwave radio begging for money to keep his show on the air, just like one of those fly by night radio preachers.

[jgraz]

54. Just follow him on his next trip to the Dominican Republic

[8 track mind]

58. ...........

:puke:
:puke::puke:p:puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke:puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke:

[slay]

55. #1 - IT WAS A JOKE!!! #2 - I will not recommend this as I don't hope they fail or not

I don't waste my time thinking about the health of that scumbag - but for real - it was only a joke!!@!!! Why would anyone take that seriously enough for this thread to have 18 recs while better threads go with less recs? Is it just so we can pat ourselves on the back and feel good about ourselves saying "well I sure don't want him dead" (and have no sense of humor)? :banghead:

[Political Tiger]

56. Maybe she should have said she hopes he gets Parkinson's Disease.

n/t

[backscatter712]

57. I hope he OD's on his Oxycontin and his breathing fails!

Yeah, I'd agree that'd be a horrible thing to wish upon a human being. As opposed to human beings, though, Rush is fair game...

[MadMaddie]

59. Wanda Sykes pointed out the obvious...the guy is a drug

user and one of the results of this behavior is kidney failure.

When he wished that America would fail....

That includes

The health care system that is overwhelmed and being ruined by Corporate America... meanwhile Americans are dying...

What about Michael J. Fox...no one demanded an apology from the bastard Rush mocking Michaels debilitating daisies?

Oh what about all of the racist shit he said....no apology...no?

If Rush's kidney's fail it is of his own doing not because Wanda Sykes made a statement.

[Clio the Leo]

61. We NEED him .........

..... moderate, indepenant American hates him only slightly less than we do.

[cboy4]

62. No thanks.

[WinkyDink]

63. Death ain't funny. Neither was Wanda, right then.

[GoneOffShore]

64. How about cholera instead?

[npk]

65. Wanda wasn't wishing that on Rush

It was a tongue and cheek remark. When Rush said he wanted Obama to fail, which would have meant he wanted the country to fail. Neither was going to happen simply because Rush wished it. Just like Wanda saying she hopes Rush's kidneys fail. It's not going to happen. She is just drawing on the same symbolism as Rush. Brilliant IMO.

[RomanHoliday]

66. I wouldn't WISH it, but I wouldn't mind either..

Like if I could save his life by giving him my kidney, I'd say hell no and then laugh in his face.

[blonndee]

67. I guess I'm kicking by responding but I don't K and R.

Anything that sorry POS gets, I figure he deserves. I don't actively wish harm on him, but certainly would not mourn anything bad that happens to him, considering the vicious harm on individuals he has inflicted and wished upon others as well as the noxious and toxic atmosphere he has had a major role in establishing amongst the American people.

I will also say that if DU still exists the day that sorry SOB dies, I'll be dancing on his grave and being extremely obnoxious myself. It will be a cause for celebration when that cancer on humankind is finally extinguished.

[MrSlayer]

68. Fuck him.

I'd wish for his heart to fail but he doesn't have one.

[Colobo]

69. I don't wish that on anyone.

[Bluebear]

70. THIS is what brought you out of the woodwork?

[Ilsa]

71. Apathy is the best he'll get from me. Not after he puked all over women in

the navy back during Tailhook in 1991 and 1992. He's a misogynist, and I don't think he cares if women survive the treatment of men, so I'm not going to give a good god damn about him.

No, I'll save my kidneys for someone else.

[quiet.american]

72. Can't be a hypocrite - I've wished much worse on that destructive sack of shite.

Yeah -- I'm not perfect. I don't wish everyone a long and healthy life. That is all.

[Egnever]

73. Personaly I would rather he got parkinsons

The guy is a fucking blight on our society. I dont care what he catches as long as it shuts his ass up.

[Dr.Phool]

74. Maybe a case of the Giant Cambodian Carnivore Crabs.

Give him a reason to jump around.

[ima_sinnic]

75. do you take all jokes seriously? wil not recommend bc I couldn't care less

[Raster]

76. It's call a "joke," part of a "comedy routine," in response to his hyperbolic, malicious commentary.

No, I don't want flush limpballs' kidneys to fail. I want him to get caught on film, trying to have sex with an eight year old kid in the Dominican Republic, and have it broadcast around the world. Then I'd like flush to live a long, miserable life in prison.

[Orsino]

79. I want him to live long enough to regret the harm he's done...

...and to wish to undo it.

[zulchzulu]

80. I don't want Rush's kidneys to fail

I want him to just keel over and fall into a pool of pig urine.

[blindpig]

81. I hope his dick falls off.

There, is that better?

[Politicub]

82. This thread wins the bullshit of the month award on DU!

[democracy1st]

83. how in the f...k did you take that sh.. serious?

[Perky]

84. I didn'tthis was in response to aq parallel post

which said K&R if yoy agree with Wand AND want Rush;s Kidneys to fail.


It gotlocked soon after I posted this and another similar themed one got locked as well because of DU rule violations

[salguine]

85. How about explosive diarrhea any time he's at a podium in front of people and cameras?

[Uzybone]

90. +1

[specialed]

87. Not only that...

Someone should tail his sorry fat *ss to the Dominican Republic next time he goes on one of his boy sex tours.

[Uzybone]

89. I also wish Sasha and Malia didn't fly AF-1 over Manhattan

that was dangerous!!!!

[JuniperLea]

91. I wish everyone wore big kid panties...

And understood the stupidity that is the correspondents' dinner.

#1 - The press and the government shouldn't be so palsy-walsy anyway. The press is supposed to have the freedom to print the truth as they see it, not as the government dictates.

#2 - This event has traditionally been a roast. Roasts are NOT for the thin skinned or those with easily wadded undies.

#3 - Don't we have something more important on which to focus rather than wasting so much bandwidth on what a comédienne has said during her purposely pointed, irreverent, and ROAST-style performance?

:eyes:

[yoyossarian]

92. Can't agree, luv...

I have no sense at all of pity or mercy for this Hideous Thing That Should Not Be...



Rush Limbaugh - To this day he remains one of the most amazing founts of misinformation out there, mostly because of the freakishly large blowhole located on his face-thing... he uses this aperture to spew poisonous bile in a wide semi-circle all around him whenever he feels threatened, which is always... though I realize that, from a biological view, he's quite a rarity, unique to nature, my wise primitive instincts make me want to club him like a baby seal, for the sake of everyone... and I know within my heart that he wants this too... somewhere deep inside that huge bloated exterior is a tiny little baby that no one ever loved enough, cuz it was such a hateful little shit...

--excerpted from Some Folks I Profoundly Distrust



President Evil Online has risen from the grave!

Great gift tee shirts, mugs, buttons and other cool stuff at


Laugh City!

[ismnotwasm]

93. What I want for him

Is to go away and stop polluting the airwaves. His health issues potential or real I don't give a shit about. 'Sides, It's quite possibly he's an evil being from another planet and HAS no kidneys.
