Hey, @oldfella1962 your pal Rush is in the news again: Rush is quoted as saying: "The coronavirus is being weaponized to bring down Donald Trump. It's nothing more than the common cold." He added that the media was desperate for ammunition against the president: "They would love for the coronavirus to be this deadly strain that wipes everybody out, so they could blame Trump for it." So, what do you think? Still a "fine American" ?? Personally, I find it very telling that this man, who is VERY much at risk due to his condition, is spewing this sort of nonsense.
you seem very upset! Lucky for you there is a little known radio "hack" that involves channel selections and volume control if you prefer not to listen to him.
Here's more. Coronavirus is a Chinese biolabs creation ( now we know where zombie gets his stuff). https://www.mediamatters.org/rush-limbaugh/rush-limbaugh-coronavirus-effort-get-trump
have any preachers said that god is doing this (or allowing the devil to do it) to punish the world for gays/communism/heathenism/etc yet?
Alternatively, if you have to listen to TalkRadio, you can compare one crazy to another and draw your own conclusions. Or just listen to some music. Does it ever occur to you that half the time you don't know what's going on because ?
Rush is a fine American. I don't have to agree with everything he does. Obama was a fine American. Charles Manson was not a fine American. Lots of people are fine Americans, lots are not.
So unless Rush orders his minions to murder people, he's a "fine American." Great criterion you've got there.
What does one have to do to get cancelled on the right? Well, it's handy that we have a case we can look at! *Rewinds to the 00's* Yep, if you sing for a living, have a vagina, and say that the Republican president is a disappointment, boom, cancelled. So, that's as bad, or worse, than Charles Manson. So, Manson wasn't bad for the killing, it was for calling the cops pigs. So "a fine American", is one that kisses authority's ass. Y'know, like how Rush kissed Obama's ass. Oh, wait.... Huh....
work with or support the dems. Trump tried doing that on something way back in his first year and as soon as he did his people turned on him. He stopped doing that right away and has learned he can say he is being bipartisan while being as partisan as possible and his cult members consider that how to be bipartisan. Never ever believe in the democrats. Which has brought us to things like CO2 is healthy, and therefor breathing in coal pollution is patriotic. Coal is the most energy efficient fuel out there, so we should all go back to coal for heat, energy, and to power our stupid pick up trucks. Cancer is really cellular freedom to reproduce, and those evil dems are trying to limit good old christian cell reproduction therefor Rush is actually a hero for promoting cancerous growths, and for being one.
At this point I disagree with or question everything that everybody has said about coronavirus except for the basic scientific facts. Experts have ideas and strong suspicions of where it originated and how it is being spread to people with no connection to China, and how we can contain it, but nothing so far is set-in-stone.
Dear Moderators: I keep clicking on this thread to see the glorious words "Limbaugh is dead," but for some reason that has not come up yet. I respectfully demand you fix this thread so that Rush is dead. If you don't immediately grant my wishes I will be forced to say nasty things about your pets.
Your inability to express disagreement with such an egregious falsehood shows that you are carrying Rush's water. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Here is my carefully worded response: who the fuck gives a shit? Why are you so concerned over how I feel about a radio talk show celebrity you (or myself) rarely listen to? Did Rush get inside your head? Show me on the doll where Rush touched you!
So how do you feel about a radio talk host who's not worth your time to listen to getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom?
I care because you are a cock-holster for a racist who got awarded the Medal of Freedom and he's got his hand so far up your ass that you can't even make the slightest pretense of disavowing even his most ludicrous statements. You say "I don't have to agree with everything he does", yet you've yet to show any disagreement with any of the statements that this "fine American" has said.
They give those away like candy. Typically the medal is bestowed upon the recipient by the sitting president who has chosen them. However, the first recipients selected by President John F. Kennedy before his assassination were formally awarded by his successor in office, Lyndon B. Johnson.[2] President Barack Obama awarded 123 medals, the most ever, followed by President Ronald Reagan with 102 medal recipients.[3][4][5] Two people, Ellsworth Bunker and Colin Powell, are two-time recipients of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Colin Powell received his second award with Distinction,[6] while Ellsworth Bunker was given both of his awards with distinction. This list does not include those awarded the similarly named but very distinct Medal of Freedom, an antecedent award issued prior to 1963. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Presidential_Medal_of_Freedom_recipients
and this negatively impacts your life how exactly? If his hand is up my ass then why are you the one who is affected so much by him? Your therapist must really be earning their money!
Oh that's right, unless it affects you directly, you don't give a shit. I mean, hey, those furriner Puerto Rico...who cares about 'em? They ain't real 'Muricans anyway. As long COVID 19 doesn't hit you, you don't care. Right?
So, are you saying we should just ignore you? If so, are you admitting your contributions to this board are meaningless static? If so, why contribute static unless you're a troll, and thus essentially Dayton 2: Electric Boogaloo?
OF admits he's really dumb, but also sticks to the position that everyone who calls him on his cognitive dissonance, ignorance and obtuseness is dumber than he is. He also thinks he's really funny. IMHO opinion he's right on one and wrong on two others.
Is this an attempt at moral relativism? Other Presidents have given the medal away to controversial people, therefore Trump giving it to anyone else is fine? Okay. To even begin that sort of argument, you'd need to name a fair amount of recipients whom you consider to be less than "fine". It doesn't. When I log off of this board, thoughts of you are further away from my mind than Dayton ever was. However, I am genuinely curious about the moral compass of someone who considers Rush to be a "fine American" despite the things that he has said. I am honestly trying to understand your thought process. Rush's hand is up your ass, but we're the ones who get splashed when you drop his water all over this board. And I suggest you consult one yourself. Anyone who thinks Rush is a "fine American" despite the things he has said and done is in dire need of some self-reflection if not therapy.
Sadly, Rush is still not dead from Coronavirus yet, but Mike Pence is interviewing with the guy: https://www.mediamatters.org/corona...baugh-coronavirus-conspiracy-theories-another
