Limbaugh suggests Milosevic poisoned because of Bill Clinton
On the March 13 edition of The Rush Limbaugh Show, while discussing the death of former Yugoslav president Slobodan Milosevic, who was, at the time of his death, on trial for war crimes, nationally syndicated radio host Rush Limbaugh said that there is "speculation" that Milosevic "might have been poisoned by somebody." Limbaugh asked, "Who would want to poison such a guy like Slobodan Milosevic?" He then told listeners: "I'm not drawing any conclusions, and I'm not even making any connections. I'm not dot-connecting or anything else. But it has been reported that Slobo was considering calling Bill Clinton as a witness." Limbaugh added: "He hadn't made the formal request but was considering it. And now, Slobo is no more."

Limbaugh has repeatedly insinuated that Bill Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton were responsible for the July 20, 1993, death of Clinton deputy White House counsel Vincent Foster.

Limbaugh: And, apparently, that's what's happened. So, now speculation is he might have been poisoned by somebody. He even wrote that he thought he was going to be poisoned. Now, how can this possibly be? Who would want to poison such a guy like Slobodan Milosevic?

But did you hear what The Hague said? These -- The Hague -- the people at The Hague were mad because they wanted to get to the bottom of what happened there, and he's the only guy who knows, and now, he's histoire. He assumed room temperature, and they'll never know. So, they're not going to be able to document the case of ethnic cleansing and all this. This trial's gone on for four years or some such thing.

What is interesting about this, and I'm not drawing any conclusions, and I'm not even making any connections. I'm not dot-connecting or anything else. But it has been reported that Slobo was considering calling Bill Clinton as a witness. He hadn't made the formal request but was considering it. And now, Slobo is no more. Wesley Clark was called as a witness. He went and testified. A bunch of high-profile big names went and -- I can't remember any of the other ones.

2. Limbaugh's show is turning into a real life "Colbert Report".
So ridiculous that the satire jumps out at you.
Exception is that he's serious and his half-wit listeners believe it as truth.

5. Breaking: Clinton personally poisoned Slobo...
along with old man Winters, who owns the abandoned carnival!

Winters said as he was taken away: "and I woulda gotten away with it, if not for those meddling kids and that Limbaugh (expletive delted).

Congrats, Limbo! Eat twelve cheeseburgers to celebrate, you've cracked the case!

8. The drugs have finally done his brain in
Logic is no longer any part of that drug-addled fools' thought process. Just make some crap up for the sheep to regurgitate.

"It has been reported..." Typical Thug tactic. They make it up, and then say "It has been reported..." Yeah, by them. No one else.

9. Silly Repugs. Clinton didn't poison him.
It's obvious that Bill killed him with the candlestick in the Dining Room.

11. "...Slobo is no more."
:rofl: Thanks so much, I really needed a good laugh! What his appeal is, I'll never know. He sounds like the kinda guy who, if he was your neighbor, you'd warn the new folks about. You sure as hell wouldn't want to be stuck having to talk to him down at the ol' mailbox.

12. I didn't know Bill Clinton was running for higher office.
Rush is so fucked up from the drugs that he doesn't know what battles to fight.

14. I've raised critters all my life.
One has to, at least, envy someone who has the verbal authority, even in total, illogical hate mongering, to cause all the chickens to cackle and talk, talk, talk it over, merely by sounding off, once again, on something he knows absolutely nothing about and whose judgment is so fatally flawed render him worthless.

15. Projection & Attack opponents with
Exactly what the BushCo Cabal is guilty of itself.

Saddam Hussein should be very worried about his health in captivity, because the BushCo Propaganda Minister, Karl Rove, has given his Master Propaganda Catapult orders to level the playing field with attacks and smears on Clinton.

Perhaps a distraction from bottomed out poll numbers are about to be realized, with the sudden death of an "Brutal Tyrant" that BushCo did manage to catch, so the people can see that their Glorious Leader is winning.

16. the scary thing is
is that there are probably a number of American's who have no idea who Milosevic is - and Rush spits this BS out at them and some of the listeners who don't really follow the news or know what is going on in the World file this away in their brain as - remember that guy that was going to call Clinton as a witness and was found poisoned....

Rush knows it and that is why he spews his absolutely baseless crap - just to f*ck with the minds of people that tune in.

"Rest Easy Bill Clinton, Milosevic Can't Talk Anymore

Slobodan Milosevic is characterized in the obituaries as the "Butcher of the Balkans." If that is the story you want to read about, please go to almost any other media outlet and read it again and again. Some are now suggesting that death is Milosevic's final revenge, that he "ended up cheating history" by dying before judgment was passed.

But the world has already passed judgment on Milosevic and what is being cheated by his death is history itself.

What the corporate media overwhelmingly ignores in Milosevic's death is what they ignored in his life as well--his intimate knowledge of US war crimes in Yugoslavia. While Milosevic was undoubtedly a war criminal who deserved to be tried for his crimes, he was also the only man in the unique position of being able to expose and detail the full extent of the US role in the bloody disintegration of Yugoslavia in the 1990s. In fact, that is precisely what he was fighting to do at his war crimes trial when he died.

Because of the rule of victors' justice in the ad hoc tribunal system (a poor and unfair substitute for a true international court), Milosevic's case would have been the only international trial to potentially expose the details of the illegal, US-led NATO bombing of Yugoslavia for 78 days in 1999. While the US-backed court consistently tried to limit Milosevic's right to speak, stripping him of his right to self-representation, Milosevic battled regularly to raise US war crimes.

Sadly, with Milosevic will likely die the last hope the victims of these crimes in Yugoslavia had of getting their day (if it could even be called that) in court--a tragic and unjust reality to begin with--that speaks volumes about the twisted state of international justice."
