That should be what you keep in mind every time you hear Fox News amplify whatever Rush Limbaugh says.

And Chris Wallace? Off your knees. It’s just… embarrassing.

    Rahm Emanuel’s strategy to turn Rush into the de facto leader of the GOP has been paying amazing dividends for months now and continues to do so.

    You wing-nut suckers got played so hard.

      How do you figure, Jaim? Obama’s drop in the polls has been nothing short of extraordinary?

      Limbaugh’s popularity rise has also been nothing short of extraordinary.

      Amazing dividends? Ha! Good one.

      Next you’ll be saying Obama’s attack on Edmunds.com has paid off amazing dividends. Woo-hoo.

        Actually, Limbaugh’s a pretty unpopular political figure, outside of the fringe who takes his word as gospel. He’s a great face for the GOP (if you’re a Democrat).

    We’ll see come Tuesday.

    Right. Tuesday is the day Republicans are actually in potential danger of losing a seat that they’ve held for decades.

    And if the wing-nut does win, it only fires up the mouth-breathers, tea-baggers, and birthers to further purge any GOP member who dares criticize Chairman Rush. Meanwhile, only 17% of Americans can bring themselves to identify as Republicans any longer:

    Beautiful. I couldn’t ask for a more dysfunctional Republican party.

    Keep up the awesome work guys!

    Tolerant libs heart using forged quotes to smear Limbaugh.

    “All’s fair in love and liberalism. It’ssss…the Chicago way.”

    Tolerant libs heart using forged quotes to smear Limbaugh.

    Actually, we need only tell the truth about Rush, Dennis:

    Limbaugh thinks it “seems perfectly within the realm of reality” that the H1N1 vaccine was “developed to kill people”

    Louis Farrakhan said that, Dark Avenger.

    “The Earth can’t take 6.5 billion people. We just can’t feed that many. So what are you going to do? Kill as many as you can,” Farrakhan reportedly said during an event in Memphis, Tenn. “We have to develop a science that kills them and makes it look as though they died from some disease.”

    What’s your take on that?

      Wait….are you saying that Louis Farrakhan is behind the H1N1 epidemic?

      Damn~ He got mad skills. BHAHAHAHAH

        H1N1 is just a piker compared to MRSA, and by golly, that’s one disease the human race should get credit for:

        Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterium responsible for several difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It may also be referred to as multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA). MRSA is by definition any strain of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria that is resistant to a large group of antibiotics called the beta-lactams, which include the penicillins and the cephalosporins.

        MRSA has evolved an ability to survive treatment with beta-lactam antibiotics, including methicillin, dicloxacillin, nafcillin, and oxacillin. MRSA is especially troublesome in hospital-associated (nosocomial) infections. In hospitals, patients with open wounds, invasive devices, and weakened immune systems are at greater risk for infection than the general public. Hospital staff who do not follow proper sanitary procedures may transfer bacteria from patient to patient. Visitors to patients with MRSA infections or MRSA colonization are advised to follow hospital isolation protocol by using gloves, gowns, and masks when indicated. Visitors, including health care providers, who do not follow such protocols are capable of spreading the bacteria to areas such as cafeterias, bathrooms, elevators, or various other surfaces.

    Louis Farrakhan is the leader of a minority religious denomination who doesn’t have the radio audience of Flush Rimbaugh, and if either party takes his cue from the other in terms of stupid pronouncements, it’s only win-win as far as I’m concerned.

    Dennis, take that bone out of your nose.

    And when Obama’s approval goes below 30% as it did for Bush II, call me.
