Rush Limbaugh: A Vote For John McCain is a Vote Against John McCain

[Cowpunk]

Okay, this is truly bizarre.

I was listening to Rush Limbaugh this morning at work, as I do most days. The guys at work all know I'm a lefty so I don't feel like I'm promoting him. Anyway, at about 20 minutes into Rush's show, he starts riffing on Sarah Palin's answer to Charlie Gibson's question about her readiness to be president. Seconds later, Rush is making the argument that what this election boils down to is a battle between Gov. Sarah Palin and three members of our corrupt Congress, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and John McCain.

Huh?

Then he said it again, and named names-Barack Obama, Joe Biden, John McCain. Against Sarah Palin.

Rush didn't say anything about a write-in campaign, and I have to believe that's not what he was getting at. So here we have Rush Limbaugh, leader of the right wing media, saying that in order to stick it to John McCain we should...vote for John McCain.

Is this what they mean by "Palin Derangement Syndrome"?

1. WTF??? Well, that fits with McCain's Flip-Flopping-Mania of the past several

months... in a weird way.

[yellowcanine]

2. Logic never was Rush "Butt pimple means I can't serve" Limbaugh's strength.

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

3. Makes as much sense as anything else Limpballs has ever said

4. That Hillbilly Heroin is some heavy shit.

9. It's Friday

pills go down so smooth when you know you don't have to be at work tomorrow

[SurfingAtWork]

5. Well, in his defense... he was probably high at the time.

6. I think it means that Rush is already counting the flowers on McCain's grave...

after the fundies pray him to death.

[BigAnth]

7. Write-in for Palin! Brilliant!

If we can just get all these hyped-up delusional fundies to organize a write-in for Palin campaign it would be great! Sarah don't need no stinkin' old man! She can do it all on her own! Write in for Palin!

[Curtland1015]

8. I think Rush has an honest to God crush on her!

He sits there squeezing blackheads, DREAMING of Sarah and him making sweet, sweet sandwiches together.

Seeing her with other men is what's driving him nuts!

[leftist.]

11. Okay that's disgusting, but ...

"Squeezing blackheads"??? UGH! But I do agree with you. "Guns, babies, and jesus ... HOT DAMN!" was one of the all-time greatest lines ever uttered by Limbaugh (and by greatest I do mean silliest). And I genuinely believe that both he and Hannity have an enourmous crush on her.

[leftist.]

10. I couldn't listen today, are you certain that's what he said? WOW! nt

[TornadoTN]

12. Makes sense - they want Palin, she's the centerpiece

They'll make it so she gets the power in the relationship - they'll make McCain cave to her under the assumption that she was the one that won his election.

This has been the strategy since she was "selected".

13. as I saw one freeper remark: Palin is the sugar that makes the McCain medicine go down easy

The *LOVE* her.

They really don't like him.....but if they elect him and wind up with her one day....then its all worth while.

That is their thought process.

The fact that he's old and cancer prone is a BONUS to them.

[sketchycharacter]

14. Its a tough pill to swallow, but I think I understand his position here...

Oxycontin jokes aside...Limbaugh is clearly anti McCain but he is smitten with Palin...She is the right winger Bonnie to his Clyde. He feels that by voting for this ticket, that Palin's right wing zealotry will somehow balance out McCain's lukewarm conservative agenda and America will be just..."Right?"

Limbaugh and Palin would be prefect for each other... They could do some pills, go hunting from a helicopter, and then drink the blood of dead Iraqis everyday before spouting their kill em all nonsense on the radio. Rush and Sarah in the morning on KKKRW radio...

The Horror...
