Rush Limbaugh was apoplectic today

He was lashing out in every direction - including at the pundits on FOX! Said that Obama isn't "cool", he's "cold as a machine" with "no passion". Then he went off on the bright future of the Communist Party in the US under a President Obama. I kid you not. (Nothing at all about Ayers today, I was amused to note.) I listen to Rush daily (research for DeadEls), but I have NEVER heard him this agitated and frustrated.

1. I don't understand why his panties are in a bunch. Obama winning will
give Rush plenty to talk about every day.

4. I'm sure he "gets a bonus" if Repubs win.
I am also sure he risks being called "hate radio" and possibly investigated by a Democraticly controlled government.

12. HE only got on Vicodin AFTER Clinton was out of office
HE NEEDS a liberal government. The success of his schtick depends upon rightwingnuts being out of power.

3. OK, guess we can add communist to the list
Obama is:

a communist

a militant

a muslim

an extremist

a liberal

an angry black man

a socialist

a terrorist

When are these idiots just going to pick a false label and stick with it?

No passion. Please. If he showed what Rush calls "passion", Rush would then
portray him as the quintessential "angry black man."

It doesn't matter what Obama does or says where Rush is concerned.

14. Rush knows McCain needed to knock Obama out of his serenity. He's frustrated to have failed.

13. That Obama was a mountain meaning he was unmovable and solid no matter what happens
and some other pretty actually nice comments. Rump Leakage was pissed.

11. My sympathies go out to you for having to listen to Rush daily....
...if we ever meet the drinks will be on me. Its the least I can do for a fellow Democrat who has to go through so much suffering. I know I couldn't handle it. Sometimes when I want to see what the rubes on Fox are saying I literally keep my finger on the previous channel button so I can quickly switch away from it.

19. I can't bear to listen to him either...
I think you meant to respond to deadelephant:hi:

Actually, I can't even bear to write his name... I was so glad when that columnist (sorry her name escapes me at the moment:blush:) called him "squealer." Finally a name for the guy that I can use;)

16. Yeah he got that way in 92 when Clinton was rolling to victory. Then he managed to con Poppy Bush
into coming unto his show and blathering about Clinton's trip to Moscow as a Rhodes Scholar - Clinton promptly opened up an even bigger lead after that.

25. I wasn't able to listen, can you answer something for me?
Was he at all happy with McCain's performance from last night? I did read that he was especially upset with Fox News for bashing McCain last night.

31. It's called racism, pure and simple...pigman Rush just can't face a black man as an equal. Democrats
Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 03:40 PM by LaPera
helping the workers of the country, is bad enough for the pigman to spew his lying greedy hateful republican on but a democrat that is also black....he's hated minorities all his life....this is just more than he can handle...remember as tactic to make McCain more palpable to progressives and moderates he said he was against McCain.....Now he's desperate and will spew out even more racist hatred and lying propaganda than ever before....Obama is Limbaugh's worst nightmare coming true right before his wide open eyes!
