Irony of Rush Limbaugh's comments today

[kingsbury]

I personally don't listen to this "man", but heard that he said the charges against him were part of some politically motivated conspiracy. Wasn't this same guy who made his whole career off the politically motivated investigations (won't use the word conspiracy ) against former president Bill Clinton?
I don't know really what my point is here...but I just thought it was amusing reading the story about him calling it a politically motivated conspiracy, while remembering how he mocked Hillary for her statement on the Today show about "A Vast Right Wing Conspiracy".
Personally I think Rush's crimes are, well, they're crimes....and what clinton did was just immoral. Don't know what my point is there either, I'm tired and its late....grrrrr

Rush Limbaugh should be buried in the sand up to his neck and have jelly donuts hurled at him.

from what i understand it is.

politically motivated conspiracy.

I used to listen to Rush's radio show everyday. It seems he became "Holier than Thou" after he got his TV show.

Now, he seems paranoid that everybody is out to get him. He has to understand that if he is going to be in the public spotlight with his political views, his personal life is going to be looked at through a microscope.

It's amazing what happens to most people once they get wealth and power. Rush's story is sad because he has lost all of his credibility and he doesn't know it.

Actually, I think he hasn't become more paranoid at all, it's just that he can actually SEE all the people that think he is a useless ignorant scumbag now that he is sober.

i like how he really never took any personal responsibility for his massive drug problem. that shit is probably why he lost his hearing for that short time.

Well, as Rush said himself, all Druggies should go to jail. As a nation we have to stop letting celebrity goofballs get off because of their celebrity. You break the law, you should do the time.


LOL


Pretty funny for a money laundering, addict that likes little boys...

I love his radio commercial. It says "THE TRUTH IS BACK ON THE RADIO."


I guess that only applies to his version of the truth, and when he's not talking about his pill popping self.

if you don't think what clinton did was illegal and think that its just immoral then if I were you I'd treat myself to a reading of the definition of perjury. You see cheating on your wife is immoral, lying under oath is criminal.

It takes no special intelligence to understand this simple fact. Opinions as to whether or not it was justifiable to ask Clinton whether he was having a sexual relationship are irrelevant.

For instance if a man is starving and steals a piece of fruit from a store to alleviate his starvation then he has broken the law regardless of how you feel about the situation.

Similarly if you buy and are in possession of AAS then you are also breaking the law. Again opinions about the justification of said illegality are irrelevant to its status as criminal.

Too many people are so oblivious to the simple fact that Clinton did in fact perjure himself to a Grand Jury.

The blowjob was not the point and to persist in believing that it was is a strenous attempt to be stupid. It was his second term, he did not have to worry about reelection he should have just been a man about it and answered honestly, that would have taken all the wind out the sails of those trying to get him.
However honesty is not a trait commonly found in politicians.

Any prominent individual is going to have enemies that would seize on an attempt to take them down if the opportunity arose.
Common sense tells us as much. Clinton was not paranoid to think there were people trying to get him, there were. Similarly there are probably those who would relish taking Limbaugh down.

There are a great many people who hate Limbaugh and have never listened to him. You see it is sheik to think like you are told to in this day in age. Limbaugh's political insight is EXTREMELY astute, you don't have to agree with him on every belief he holds to appreciate that. Additionally his research put in to his programs is amazing. I enjoy listening to a differing opinion than all the clones in the TV media collectively share and I am sure there are many of you on this board who hate him with intense vitriol. But for those of who do I wonder if you have arrived on your judgement on your own or if you have just adopted the feeling because of some sheepish instinct to do what you are told.

Agreed. Clinton commited perjury which is illegal. But, Limbaugh is/was a celebrity drug user that will walk. Further, his faithfulls don't even care that he has never accepted responsiblity. I just don't get it.
