Poverty is not the root cause of crime.
Ronald Reagan was the greatest president of the twentieth century. Rush Limbaugh The last thing they want is a revitalized economy now. I'm not saying the Democrats don't want a strong economy. Don't misunderstand. They just don't want it now. “The most beautiful thing about a tree is what you do with it after you cut it down” “Bigot-A person who wins an argument with a liberal” “Women were doing quite well in this country before feminism came along” "The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies" (radio; reported in the Flush Rush Quarterly, January 1993). “When a gay person turns his back on you, it is anything but an insult; it's an invitation” “They vote with their vaginas” “If we are going to start rewarding no skills and stupid people - I'm serious, let the unskilled jobs, let the kinds of jobs that take absolutely no knowledge whatsoever to do - let stupid and unskilled Mexicans do that work” “The culture war is between the winners and those who think they're losers who want to become winners. The losers think the only way they can become winners is by banding together all the losers and then empowering a leader of the losers to make things right for them.” http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=1895 http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=1159 AIDS "And one of the things that -- that the -- the AIDS activists said regularly back then was, oh, this is only a matter of time before it spreads to the heterosexual community. It's only a matter of time. And they used that as -- as one of the weapons to try to get people like Reagan to start talking about it from their standpoint. And of course it -- it hasn't. It -- it didn't, and it hasn't, other than in Africa, and in Africa it is -- it is being spread not just by -- it -- it -- it's promiscuity that -- that -- that spreads this, if you want to know the truth. It's promiscuity. But it -- it hasn't made that jump to the heterosexual community." Rush Limbaugh June 9, 2004 broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show Blacks "Why should Blacks be heard? They're 12% of the population. Who the hell cares." -Rush Limbaugh ‘take that bone out of your nose and call me back.’ Rush Limbaugh Source:Notable Quotables, mrc.org Choice or Orgasms "I think this reason why girls don't do well on multiple choice tests goes all the way back to the Bible, all the way back to Genesis, Adam and Eve. God said, 'All right, Eve, multiple choice or multiple orgasms, what's it going to be?' We all know what was chosen" (TV, Feb. 23, 1994). Citizen Service Citizen service is a repudiation of the principles upon which our country was based. We are all here for ourselves." - Condoms "Condoms only work during the school year." Drug Abuse "And we have laws against selling drugs, pushing drugs, using drugs, importing drugs. And the laws are good because we know what happens to people in societies and neighborhoods which become consumed by them. And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up." "When you strip it all away, Jerry Garcia (former Grateful Dead guitarist) destroyed his life on drugs. And yet he's being honored, like some godlike figure. Our priorities are out of whack, folks." (well ditto heads? I bet you still love this drug addicted, law-breaking drug freek. Ever hear of 'just say no' or how by buying drugs you are supporting Osama?) Earth "The Earth's eco-system is not fragile." Feminism "Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society." Homeless "One of the things I want to do before I die is conduct the homeless olympics...the 10-metre shopping cart relay, the dumpster dig, and the hop, skip, and trip." Indians and VD "I don't give a hoot that [Columbus] gave some Indians a disease that they didn't have immunity against" (Ought to Be, p. 45). Iraqi Prison Abuse Exactly. Exactly my point! This is no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation and we're going to ruin people's lives over it and we're going to hamper our military effort, and then we are going to really hammer them because they had a good time. You know, these people are being fired at every day. I'm talking about people having a good time, these people, you ever heard of emotional release? You of heard of need to blow some steam off? Rush's Radio Show 5-4-4 Jesse Jackson ‘have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson? Rush Limbaugh Source:Notable Quotables, mrc.org Michael J. Fox (Parkinson's disease) "He is exaggerating the effects of the disease. He's moving all around and shaking and it's purely an act. . . . This is really shameless of Michael J. Fox. Either he didn't take his medication or he's acting. This is the only time I've ever seen Michael J. Fox portray any of the symptoms of the disease he has. He can barely control himself." Rush Limbaugh Source: Rush's Radio Show 10-24-06 Donovan McNabb "I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn't deserve." Nuclear Arms Reduction "The only way to reduce the number of nuclear weapons is to use them." Owls "If the owl can't adapt to the superiority of humans, screw it" (Ought to Be, p. 162). Sierra Club "The Sierra Club wants to limit the number of kids you can have to two. They are into power and controlling peoples lives." Sexual Harassement Sexual harassment at this work station will not be reported. However...it will be graded!!! Stuck "Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old - old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something." "We have more trees in this country today than when the Declaration of Independence was written. The wackos will tell you that's impossible." "There are more acres of forestland in America today than when Columbus discovered the continent in 1492" Rush Lies 1) Limbaugh: "Don't let the liberals deceive you into believing that a decade of sustained growth without inflation in America (in the '80s) resulted in a bigger gap between the have and the have-nots. Figures compiled by the Congressional Budget Office dispel that myth" (Limbaugh, The Way Things Ought to Be, p. 70). Reality: CBO numbers for after-tax incomes show that in 1980 the richest fifth of our country had eight times the income of the poorest fifth. By 1989, the ratio was more than 20-to-1. 2)Limbaugh: "The poorest people in America are better off than the mainstream families of Europe" (radio, 1993). Reality: The poorest 20 percent of Americans can purchase an average of $5,433 worth of goods with their income. Meanwhile, in Germany, the average person can purchase $20,610 worth of goods; in France, $19,200; in Britain, $16,730 (World Development Report 1994, published by the World Bank). |

I was listening that day. And you're all full of shit. Now, back to the nipple thread.
His point was how liberals trot out sick people to parrot their talking points, hoping that the sick person will be held infallible because they have a disease. The idea is that if you are against making cloning a constitutional right, you must be against cures for disease. Conservatives want sick people to die. Liberal media are the foulest batch of users and liars in the history of politics. All sides have done their share, but for pure evil, nothing beats em. Jesse Jackson doesn't want to empower blacks -- his paycheck comes from their misery. And around here, at least, blacks are sick of being told that they are second class humans who can't possibly succeed without the government to break their chains (to the tune of Amazing Grace of course). Yeah. basically the idea is, they send out a sick person who says something. If you disagree with what is said, you are against life, health, and Michael J Fox. Fuck democrats and their sleaze.

The nastiness on both sides can be demonstrated. To believe that the "good guys" will save us from the "bad guys" while another group believes the same, but reversed, is a pointless ping-pong game. Wake up and reject them both. Vote independent. Vote third party. Vote "none of the above" when it comes to Democrats and Republicans: either of the two equals "more of the same" . . . there are no "good guys" in the two-party system.

A vote for a third party is a vote for more of the same. There are no viable third parties in this election. It's too late. If you want a third party to get anywhere, you need to start looking toward an election in the future. |

Rush is often sarcastic in his show. So yes many quotes are prolly out of context and therefore not the actually meaning of what he said.

@glatt:
What you said applies to every election in the rigged system we have.
"You're throwing your vote away" is the voice of the two-party duopoly. Voting in the "good guys" and then the "bad guys" get back in, and then you get the "good guys" back in, and then the "bad guys" muck it all up - is that not throwing your vote away?! What do you ever get out of it? Nothing. More of the same. It's a false hope. It's a perpetual farce... . . . I'm looking at the big picture, and it tells me: we have to start somewhere. If not now, then never. There will never be a convenient time to reject a system which none of us, honestly, are happy with.
