As Limbaugh Eats Himself
05 Jan 2011 12:00 pm

Ticked that the NFL canceled a football game during the East Coast blizzard, Rush vents:

LIMBAUGH: All I could think about was the Donner Party. You know the story of the Donner Party. A bunch of pioneers heading out to California got trapped in a blizzard in the Sierra Nevada mountain range out there near Lake Tahoe and they couldn't get to Harrah's, and they couldn't get to any of the casinos. It was bad. They resorted to cannibalism to stay alive. If you read from the diaries that were kept by members of the Donner Party, you know what you find as a reference to the weather? One, "It was an unusually cold winter." There wasn't any complaining. There wasn't any whining. There wasn't any moaning. It's just what it was. These are pioneers. What would the Donner Party think if they knew that we were canceling a football game because of a forecast?

I imagine it might be difficult to think of anyone in American history who retroactively might have shown more deference to a forecast of heavy snow than the members of the Donner Party. But I regress.

Where was Limbaugh when all this happened? On vacation in Hawaii.

2. If Limbaugh had been along for the trip...
the Donner Party could have lasted several "unusually cold winters".

4. Limbaugh was in Hawaii when the Donner party was stranded?
I find it more disturbing that he may have been on the Islands at the same time as the Obama family for the second year in a row. What's up with that?

10. Is that from the Haney Project?
I'm so tired of hearing the asshole say "What are we on the range for?" I may watch out of fascination of the macabre.

6. But, but ... I thought it was un-American to vacation in Hawaii!
That's what the Repukes said when Obama went during the campaign.

...because of a forecast?

They would probably think "smart move."

"And if you decide not to cancel be sure not to take the Hastings Cutoff on yer way to the stadium."

More efficient use of resources, if you get my meaning.
