Limbaugh gets a "spade" and "hoe" parody done on Obama!
By John Amato Monday Jan 14, 2008 9:01pm
You knew it was only a matter of time before Rush would do one of his unfunny---racist style parodies about the Clinton's and Barack Obama over the recent and I believe media driven dust up between the two. (It's good to see all sides stepping back from it now.) You've probably heard Limbaugh's "Barack the Magic Negro" piece by now---well, he follows that garbage up with this:
Limbaugh:...Obama is holding his own against both of them--doing more than his share of the "spade" work. Maybe even gaining ground at the moment. Using not only the spade ladies and gentleman---that when he finishes with the "spade" in the garden of corruption planted by the Clinton's, he turns to the "hoe." And so the spade work and his expertise using a hoe.
As I reported back then, Rush inflamed many black talk radio employees at the time when he played his Obama parody song. I doubt it made an impression on him.

This clown is on Armed Forces Radio Network?
How could this rascist be allowed to broadcast to our military?
Sometimes a cigar isn't 'just a cigar'
So wait-- he's doing a bit calling Obama a "spade" and Clinton a "ho"?
Um... people, if this doesn't get him booted off the air... I can't imagine what will.
(I'm not advocating censoring him... I want the free market to work here.)
That this country re-selected Dubya in 2004 and that there are millions of folks who tune in to listen to Rush on a daily basis....true signs our country is in trouble!
Spade?! Hoe!?
What a f'n stupid jerk.
Spade, hoe... does that make Edwards a rake?
I am embarassed to say that I heard part of Limbaugh's show the other day. He mentioned that Hillary had said something to the effect that Obama wasn't willing to do the spade work required to be president.
I'm sure that's why he's pushing this language now, and when he gets called on it, he will say it's ok because Hillary said it first.
wow. not only is that completely and overtly racist, its also stupid and not even remotely funny.
I can't believe how many people listen to this jackass! But wait, their are called dittoheads right? More like ignorant assholes!
Wow, that's low -- even by the standards of bloated, drug-addled race-baiters.
Once a jack-ass, always a jack-ass. I would love to get the total IQ level of the morons who think this idiot has a clue. Probably lower than Bush's total IQ combined.
who does rush pipe when he's not on air? that cigar in his mouth all the time
makes me think he was jealous of monica that he did not have some white
stains on his shirt.
Why? Why do I stay in America? Un f***ing believable that this race-baiting misanthropic neo-fascist swine is allowed to spew his filth.
V
Normally I hate the type of bullshit PC identity politics I hear from the left but this Rush guy is truly a fucking dirtbag bigot. How's he going to spin this one?
Donald @ 11:
that IQ level is .0001
He is still around because his public is from the uneducated. I would not spend my time listen to this ranting drug addict. Why poor Republicans do wants to vote again their own interest is beyond my understanding.
miss_kitty @ 2:
rush does look like he enjoys a good cigar, doesn't he???
And this coming from a lard assed, drug addled, gas bag, who takes Viagra while whoremongering the fourteen year old hookers in the Dominican Republic. The party of morals is shining it's light brightly. This sorry excuse for a pant load is a coward who couldn't serve his country because he had a cyst on his fat repulsive ass. Slush is the face of the GOP.
Bush made Obama the most powerful president in history.
poking racist remarks at the hornet's nest? well.....Rush's days are numbered
hello...gitmo!
Consider the source. We can't expect any better than this from him, no more than we could expect to walk by a hogpen and think it's going to smell like roses. He's just trying to call attention to himself in his usual lowbrow manner.
*sigh*
Yet another example of how the right is completely falling apart. Lousy candidates that all have been exposed as lying, cheating, devious, opportunistic douchebags. And now, we all get to watch the right wing pundits sink into depravity as well. O'Reilly, Rush, Coulter, Hannity etc... have all said and done things that show their true feelings about this country and its citizenry.
I thought this election was a slam dunk for the Democrats, but it's looking like I was wrong.
Are the Democrats going to nominate a black guy named 'husein', who is an avowed drug user, or a woman associated with Bill Clinton. Look before you get all bent, I personally have no problem with either of them as people, or as a leader of my country, but seriously talk about a pitching one under hand for the Repugs to knock out of the park. The idea that the repugs can't find any traction to smear these two is obviously false, and in fact it seems extremely likely that once they stop trying to rip each other apart they will turn on either of these two with a viciousness that will be beyond belief -- hopefully that will alienate people from their cause.
My point is that this Rush Limbaugh piece is just the start. Get ready for all smear, all snear, all the time -- for a year. You think you don't like the news now? This is going to be one ugly year in politics, and frankly, probably in the country in general.
But that's not the worst of it. Throw in Bloomburg as a third party candidate, siphoning votes from both sides, and the reality is ... this election is now wide open. Absolutely anyone could win, except the one person who probably can actually do something, or at least is committed to the right things and really will try:
Edwards (and he isn't quite a smearable)
Is this coming from a guy who needs a little blue pill so his weewee can work?
Rush shouldn't be talking about hoes, since he likes to take money for Republican sleaze.
This idiot wants to talk corruption? ROFLMAO!
The Bush administration redefined the word and expanded upon it exponentially. Even the few self identified republican's that I know, are sick of chimpy's circus of thievery and incompetence.
What genetic pool is this bottom feeder still connecting with anyway? Must be like my Aunt's boyfriend.
The guy is 68 years old, unemployed (although he wants to work and was a government acct.). He lost his job in 92' and had his pension slashed by the repukes, then had his second career job outsourced to China by his GOP buddies. He wouldn't have a roof over his head if he wasn't living in my Aunt's condo; and all he does is listen to talk radio & Fox news, defend Bush, the GOP, and trash any thought of taxation on the rich. All you can do is shake your head.
Gee Rush, sounds like you're trying to spook the left again.
Go fuck yourself.
REMEMBER WHEN ALAN BERG (TALK RADIO LIBERAL) WAS MURDERED BY AN INCENSED, LUNATIC RIGHT-WING EXTREMIST (WHO LISTENED TO HIS SHOW), AND HATED HIM? SIGH...... WHERE CAN WE GET ONE OF THOSE FOR OUR SIDE?
tough talk from a racist pill-head sack o'shit who's into buggering little boys on his overseas "sex vacations"
people who listen to that jackass are knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers and I hope they all get the
payback they oh-so truly deserve..
I recall the 2000 election campaign when Rush was an early adopter of G. W. Bush. And I really do think Rush's big-time on-air support of Dubya has a lot to do with putting him in the Whitehouse. Well, what a total f*ck-up GW has proved to be. He's unpopular in this country and despised worldwide. There is not one Republican candidate willing to hitch their wagon to the Bush "legacy." Yeah Rush... you've done great things for the GOP, this country, and the World!!! yeah...right!
I think he is going to continue to intentionally and willfully push the boundaries until he gets into an Imus type situation. It's a win-win for him. For now he can do whatever he wants and get away with it. Then when he gets fired he will go batshit crazy playing the victim and saying it all proves what he was saying all along about the liberal media etc.
Rush is shooting himself in the foot. His day of reckoning will come.
I might be mistaken but I thought Limbaugh's spade reference was a parody of Hillary Clinton's quote claiming that Obama "hasn't done the spade work. "
to paraphrase eminent philosopher Snoop Dogg, "f*ck Rush Limbaugh".
motorfingaz @ 30:
I can't wait for this pill popping pig to get served. This is only a preview of things to come folks. The rightwing smear machine is revving up for Hillary and Barack. They'll make what they did to Harold Ford a couple years ago look like a day at the beach.
That picture shows a pig slime with a cigar,where's rush?...oh..sorry to all pigs,I ment no offence.
metric @ 6:
Obviously Limbaugh is NOT the sharpest tool in the shed.
What a thoroughly obnoxious DICK.
maybe it was the drugs talking...?
How in the world does this total jackass racist stay on the airways? I don't get it.
Rush, the patron saint of redneck losers.
Rush's audience: big fat white guys who are afraid of change.
I've heard men talk about tools before, but I've never heard a tool talk about people before.
To paraphrase the infamous words of Hermann Goering:
Every time I hear the word 'Rush', I want to reach for my gun.
Dopey Limpdick needs to pop more pills.

Contact your local Limbaugh station

Al Sharpton? Why would Al Sharpton not lead a coalition to get him removed from Armed Forces Radio?
Because black leaders are only allowed to attack center left white people.
Those are the rules.
JM @ 4:
We DID NOT re-elect, let alone ELECT Shrub. Yes, this country is in trouble, but what the hell are we doing about it? Progressives across this land need to make their voices loud and clear on how we feel about Lamebaugh's sense of 'humor'. Boycott any station that carries this fool, any company that advertises on his show. Demand his termination and settle for nothing less. Is that too much to ask? I for one will be doing exactly that. The squeaky wheel gets oiled.
Hey Rus... take another Oxycontin and STFU!
er ah, Rush... STFU
@ John Amato - You keep complaining about Rush's racist Barack parodies, yet you keep posting them. Stop posting them and promoting Rush.
GC @ 48:
I never used the word "elect" if you read my post!
What he has done to our country....fuck, with what he as done to the GOP I'm surprised the Repuglicans aren't riding him out of DC on a rail!!!
Where has that bastard been in a oxycotin coma? He came out long enough to say something stupid and racist. What an ass. Or could it be he's the hemorrhoid that they removed from Glen Beck's asshole. Hmmmm... Starting to make sense to me now.
Great, I just followed up on the Hillary Clinton quote, "(Obama) hasn’t done the spade work." She said it on the Today show.
Now Limp baugh has his little spin. He can add in Hoe references as well and pretend to call "liberals" (as if Hillary were a bonafide liberal) hypocrites. Way to go Hillary, arm the Wingnuts.
Edwards is a rake.......that was hilarious, thanks for the chuckle.
"Ho/e" you hear all the time even though it's really lousy sexist meanness. But I though "Spade" was put to bed a long time ago ago as an unacceptable racist term? How come that NY DJ with the funny hat got canned for calling the basketball team "Nappy Headed Hoes" but Ross Limburg gets a pass on this (which he undoubtedly will.)?
EC @ 7:
Did she actually say that? Or is this one of those repeat a fabrication issues?
I cannot believe that there are still people who listen to this idiot.
He MUST have some listeners - the corporate media would never stack the radio with pro-GOP talk shows regardless if it is profitable or not?
That would be crazy conspiracy talk!
What a sleazebag mother fucker!
I pray to Huckabee's Jesus that Rush's anal cyst comes back and his ass explodes into shards of porkrines.
Check it out on You Tube. I didn't hear her say it, but She never corrected Russert (? is that his name) when he quoted her. I am still looking for more.
Found it on YT after plugging in spade work. There is a short clip of her right before the NH debate.
Sad. Sad. Sad.
The Repugs are salivating at the thought of facing Obama;
A Black with a foreign-sounding name which rhymes with our greatest enemy Osama = Repugs see another four years on the horizon.
Leave it to naive Dumbocraps to shoot themselves in the foot, and choose the wrong time for experiments. Some hate the Clintons, who are proven winners, so much that they'd rather see repugs win.
CaptJasHook @ 56:
Quit giving Rush excuses. He uses any reason to get fellow racist Paul "magical negro" Shanklin to write this horseshit.
In response to Limbaugh one can counter:
Romney doesn't stand a FAT chance. He may have won Michigan but he will still LIMP to the finish line after being DRUG through the mud by his fellow competitors.
Limbaugh dances well for a fat man, doesn't he?
The problem being he only knows one dance and he does it to
all types of music :)
Same people who think that the majority of Americans will vote for Obama, when the curtins are drawn. How much fantasy equals stupidity?
americangoy @ 60:
Given this nauseating pile of blubber's track record, it's no surprise he'd play this card. If it's Hillary, it'll be feminazi and testicle lockbox "jokes". Obama gets the racial insults. Edwards will get the lawyer references and haircut parodies. We should expect it and be prepared
for them. Fatboy has nothing else. After all these years, it should be obvious what their game plan will be. We should stop being shocked and fight back quickly and in effective soundbites, because that's how the game is played.
Limbaugh is so see through its just gotten sad. What a concentrated pile of human waste.
Medical Diagnosis by Video @ 1:
Guess you don't know our military very well. Let's just say he is well received with most of the enlisted white men and unfortuantely many of the officers as well.
I was left dumbfounded when I heard it. It just seems so unfair that there are thousands of sensless killings going on all over ever minute of the day and Rush Limpballs continues to walk the planet. Just doesn't make any sense. His continued existance is proof positive there is no god nor any justice in the world.
Repubs are truly sick people. When Rushmore got caught enroute to Santo Domingo with enough Viagra to excite a giant herd of bull elephants my Repub/Nazi son-in-law was furious. He was not furious at his hero, Rush, for using Viagra (I assume to have sex despite not being married). Instead, he was furious that Rush got nailed and gave people like me the opportunity to point out what a freaking hypocrite Mr. Limpbaugh truly is. What a twisted attitude.
In addition, my son-in-law still believes that GeeDubya has been a good preznit. He would vote for him again. When I ask why he would vote for a president who has undermined our environmental regs, swept away our health and safety standards, neutered the CPSC as well as the NHTSA, the FDA and the USDA, outed a CIA agent, lied us into a war, destroyed the professionalism of the Justice Dept., botched the response to Hurricane Katrina, screwed up the VA medical system, wasted 7 precious years by doing nothing to combat global warming, weakened our consumer protections with "tort reform," almost doubled the national debt to $10 trillion, opposed (until recently) increased fuel efficiency for cars and trucks, vetoed the children's health insurance program, placed 2 anti-consumer, anti-labor, anti-environment, pro-business reactionaries on the Supreme Court, etc. my son-in-law just grins and walks away.
So far in the current election cycle he has supported Giuliani initially, but then switched over to Fredo Thompson. When I ask why he supports Fredo he can't give me a good reason except to say the obvious - he's a Rethugnican. He would never support a Dem unless the Dem was pro-business, pro-the wealthy, anti-immigrant, anti-labor and racist.
He makes me ill, and the fact that no one can convince him that he's shooting himself in the foot makes this tragedy even worse. Sick people.
This turd should have gone down with the comedy half hour ship.
JJohnson @ 70:
TRUE. But what is truly disturbing is that he still has a huge radio audience and has influence.
One more reason to conclude God must surely not exist, because this "sinner" never meets consequences. We should put him in a time capsule to remind aliens 1000 years from now what kind of forces collapsed the American Empire.
Baltimore Colt @ 72:
What can you do? Some people are just born that way I guess.
i'm not for censorship but is it censorship to take this drug addict off armed forces radio? is this what a black gi would want to hear? i'm white and i'm about ready to blow an aneurysm. where is the leadership of this country? this is moral? supporting the troops?
where is the respect in this country?
just puked in my mouth a little after reading that. Man, what a degenerate pig
I'm no fan of Rush Limbaugh, but are you all forgetting that Hillary is the one who used the term "spadework"? And if you don't think the ever-so-forced use of that arcane term was intentional, you haven't been paying attention.
People: I'm guessing most of us here are liberals, right? Well, it's pretty disgusting that so few of us are standing up to the Clintons on this one (oh wait, I forgot: the guy that cut welfare, bombed other countries to divert attention from a sex scandal, created "don't ask, don't tell," gave up on universal health care, and signed the ridiculous "Defense of Marriage" piece of shit is the "liberal").
We are letting the Clintons destroy the Democratic party and it's really fucking pathetic. Is it any surprise that a disgusting right-winger like Limbaugh would find this amusing?
When a cigar is not just a cigar, maybe it's just a training tool. He looks like he's hoping to do a little "spade" work of his own.
Die Rush! If anyone ever needed a hot tar enema, it would be him.
Yes Rush..EMPHASIZE those loaded terms to make sure your gormless,witless audience "gets" the "joke".You're SUCH a fat useless waste of skin.Imagine a slob like this as "Man of the Year".It's enough to make me puke.
WTF?
um, WOW
Rush needs to get his ass kicked
Rush is in no way a racist or a sexist. Any of you who say otherwise are race and sex baiting P/C liberals and should get their minds out of the proverbial gutter.
Rush is the biggest tool in the garden, He shovels more shit that anyone I know of!

Probably because Rush is a bigger earner for his employers. But no, it's not fair is it?
Well there goes my breakfast.
Why can't Limbaugh be "Imus'ed"?
jones @ 85:
Wow - you're either the Worst Troll Ever (tm) or an absolute shithead.
Limbaugh's monster ratings render him completely immune to boycotts from Al Sharpton or any other black leader. There are 140 corporate sponsors willing to replace each and every sponsor who abandons his show. That fat prick is a broadcasting juggernaut.
jones @ 85:
Yeah, what jones says!
Why would you ignorant libs think Rush a racist and a sexist? He loves negroes, specially those with magical powers! And when Rush talks about feminazis, he isn't talking about Hitler or Goebbels- he's talking about Col. Klink and Sgt. Schultz!
And....wait, jones: "proverbial gutter"? Which proverb used a gutter as a metaphor? Damn, you almost had me convinced that Rush farted sunshine and puked gumdrops. You offered such a compelling argument. But you had to go and use "proverbial" instead of "figurative". I guess Rush is racist and sexist.
VoiceFromTheWilderness @ 23:
I have a few things to say about that:
1) Al Qaeda is Sunni, and a very extremist version of Sunni Islam at that. Hussein was a Shia "saint", if you will. Considering what has been going on between Sunni and Shia since at least the days of the Ottomans, which started all the way back in the 1500s, well, the Sunni wouldn't name their kid "Hussein." It would be unforgivable. That Obama's father was Muslim? What of it? Over a billion people are Muslim. Not all of them are the suicide bombers.
See this link:
Obama went to Catholic school. Not some Madrassa. And even if he did.....
you ever seen one of those Fundie private schools? Those things teach Wahhabism, Christian style.
2) Edwards is smearable. They already are doing it. Sorry.
Now, as to my opinions on this:
Rush is a racist hack that ate too much and is suffering from a permanent case of hot air.
You know there was a time fat boy was a lot more discrete about his racism, I no longer really worry about him myself. he has lost listeners since Clinton left office (he used to brag about having 20 million, now he brags about having 15 million), he has reached the pinacle of his success and will have a long way to fall from here, he's a toilet bug and hardly worth thinking about.
Andy K @ 97:
Game....Set...Match....Andy K.
Well said Andy.
Rush you have really drug the the bottom of the barrel.
3 times you have married Obama's name to racist language.
You must be divorced from reality if you don't think your words are racist.
I know that he is getting high in the polls, but your words are a fat, bald attack on a decent man
I know that Hillary is not a perfect heroin and that she can be a pill.
But let's work together to rehab the "coded word games" and raise the level of discourse.
See, it is not hard to do and not very funny.
Your "tongue in cheek, aren't I clever" style reminds me of Stewie on the Family Guy
I tried to listen to limpballs back in the early ninties but frankly i never found anything he said to be the least bit funny and far from intelligent.
I view rush as a person that has never grown up, never become an adult.
Rush remindes me of a guy that used to come to my home he was kind of likeable but was always saying or doing something stupid. Once when he was here and some other people were here when he left the people ask how old is that guy? I said oh he is about 30 they said he sounds like he is about 17. That is the way I have always felt about rush and as far as I can tell his listerners are children also!
Interesting side-story: A "spade" is an old racist slur. But "to call a spade a spade" has nothing to do with it and is just a mistranslation:
http://verbmall.blogspot.com/2006/05/mistakenly-racist-terms.html
Now, maybe Rush is just an avid reader of Plutarch...? Maybe we should give the man a break?
Ahm, no, we shouldn't.
I'm stunned. Is this serious? Did this fat moron really call Obama a spade and refer to Hillary Clinton as a whore? No, somebody's gotta be making this sh-t up. First there's the -- I hope -- parody of Huckabee saying we should scrap the Constitution and just use the Bible. Now there's this. No way. Even Fat Asspimple Limbaugh is smarter than that, isn't he? I mean, when you call an African American candidate for the Presidency a "spade" that gets you thrown off the air, doesn't it?
Holy f**king sh*t.
That's racist
America can thank talk radio for this bush disaster. republicans can thank rush and crew for destroying their party.
the uncontested repetition of the right wing talk radio monopoly is the single biggest soapbox in the country. it sets up a smorgasbord of republican talking points and one liners for the rest of the lazy media who know it's OK to use them because 50-70MIL have already heard them from rush and the wannabes, possibly for weeks. limbaugh and his wannabes are the reason the dems can't get a veto proof majority. they enable the hypocrisy and ignorance that got us into iraq and keeps us there. every day they enable inaction on global warming and the economy. they give cover to the bush boot kissers in congress and threaten those who might break from the party. while they whine about red herring "political correctness" they police the media and harass establishment media who might criticize bush or his disastrous policies or cronies.
the way to treat limbaugh is to boycott his LOCAL sponsors and tell them and to protest at the LOCAL station. the best way is to push for a new Fairness Doctrine so that when he passes on republican think tank propaganda to his 50-70MIL audience there is some chance at rebutal.
it's not a free market situation. in the beginning he was heavily subsidized and stations were paid to play him. with the monopoly there is little chance for competition or truth telling even though radio managers may want a change. many republicans don't consider the right wing talk kings conservative. unless local citizens make it known locally that they don't want his racism, sexism, distortions, and lies filling their public airwaves he will continue as usual with the backing of the national GOP owners who know they have more to gain from the tax cuts and supreme justices they help pass and the pols they elect than a few million they might gain from real competition in talk radio.
progressives and dems who continue to ignore talk radio because it gives them a headache continue to play politics without a front line. one lazy blowhard with a microphone can undo the work of thousands of citizens volunteering a few hours or bucks here and there. for the last twenty years, since reagan killed the Fairness Doctrine, the right wing talk radio machine has made a very small minority much bigger than it really is.
limbaugh didn't get a 1/3BIL $ contract for wisdom and truth. he is paul revere in reverse, making excuses for king george and sabotaging democracy.
I'm not sure why I even bothered to listen to this.

Okay, just to be real here.. does anyone have a link to Today that recorded Clinton using that statment?

And read transcript of Tim Russert and didn't find that reference either.
You guys need to get a sense a humor. The Magic Negro song is funny because it's so incredibly silly. Obama probably laughs at that one himself when no one is looking at him.
If you don't think the dumb joke is funny, at least laugh at the increasingly-desperate-to-stay-relevant-Rush Limbaugh.
You guys are just helping him. He baited you and you fell for it.
Rush Limbaugh is crude, disgusting and moronic. He gives Americans a bad name everytime he opens his mouth. I listen to his show when driving both to know my enemy and to see how long I can stand it. He utterly infuriates me. To think that his NeoConservative anti-liberal anti-democrat rants are transmitted daily for THREE HOURS via AM radio from coast to coast is just unbelievable. He is a racist, fascist drug-addicted mega-wealthy lunatic. Will nothing stop him? I am waiting to pop the champagne cork the day he drops dead or goes off the air - that will be a day to celebrate.

--VoiceFromTheWilderness
Dear VFTW:
Senator Obama tried drugs (as have quite a few Americans) and said no. Your statement shows that you would deny young men and women the opportunity to do something with their lives because they experimented with drugs and chose NOT to continue that experiment. So here's your message to young men and women:
"Even if you experiment with drugs, choose to reject that behavior, and honestly deal with that phase of your maturity by not hiding it or lying about, you will be punished, reviled, and never be allowed to make something good of you life."
Tell me something VoiceFromTheWilderness. Is that an intelligent way to get young people to stop destructive behavior?
PS. Mr/Mrs Racist. Senator Obama didn't choose his name, his parents did. And, anyway, what's in a name? Should I detest all men named "John" because John Wilkes Booth was an assassin?
Is anyone really surprised? reich-wingers = racists. Fact
I hate to admit this but the republicans look downright dignified in their debates. I think Limbaugh is playing the left like violins right now. Everytime the left or the Democratic party argues about race, it looks foolish. We have real problems that absolutly must be solved. Just like Clinton fatigue, the country will go through racial tension fatigue, and Obama will be immediatly associated with it. It's time to stop taking the bait guys. Limbaugh is begging for you to make a big deal about this.
VoiceFromTheWilderness @ 23:
His name is Barack. Only unhinged xenophonic reich-wingers call Barack "husein".
Bud @ 118 -- Thanks for that link. I realize it's the clip from Rush's site, and noticed the voice and tape didn't match up during the specific wording at the time she made that particular comment.. I also enjoyed reading all the other "spadework" comments used by so many people previously. Fun to watch our dictionary being re-written by Rush....
A Spade would make an impression on Limbaugh if soundly delivered upside his fat head.
So would a Hoe.
Just curious to me how this buffoon continues to get away with his crap. His "parody" song was disgusting--worse even than Imus' incredibly stupid comment my opinion, his drug abuse and debauched personal habits are a matter of public record, yet he's still treated like a role model my these morons. (Dood--context and intent are everything. Even if the "Magic Negro song were funny, which is highly debatable, knowing that it came from the tortured, racist and low-class minds of the Limbaugh people totally wiped out any of its supposed comedic value. It was intended to be racist and insulting, so in that context that's exactly what it was. They fact that he tried to cover his rotten intent by being "funny" makes him a coward and a fake--not a brilliant humorist).
VFTW--I assume from your comments about "avowed drug users" that you aren't trying to defend Limbaugh's comments because fixating on Obama's drug use in an article about Limbaugh--well that's just sort of totally hypocritical--right?
Imus lost his job (for a while, anyway, for way less than this, and THAT offended me.
Limbaugh seems to be made of Teflon when it comes to his racism.
Yeah, the "Magic Negro" thing is "funny."
I suppose that those who find that sort of thing "funny" also think minstrel shows and blackface comedy belong on television again...
Are the Democrats going to nominate a black guy named ‘husein’,
You can't even spell his name correctly when you use it against him.
Try. Again.

By my reckoning if this was the case he would have no toes left, and probably powder burns up to his chest!
Imus gets canned for saying "nappy headed hoes" once, Rush lives in the gutter and gets away with it all the time. He will not get fired, not because the corp media loves him, but because he serves some purpose for the GOP/Right wing. He gets the propaganda out for them and they can claim no knowledge of it. Who's worse the puppet or the puppet master?

GW was not elected in 2004. John Kerry would have asked for a recount, but did not want to put this country through another repeat of 2000. There were over 8 million votes that were not counted that election - absenteeism - black voters - native american voters, etc, but Dubya was not elected in 2004.
I have a city mail route. Peole who I've gotten to know and like after 10 years will have Rush on while doing yard work. I don't get it. These are nice people but they listen to this jerk. I deliver in a middle class neighborhood and the ones who listen to Limbaugh are ex-military.
As far as the 'spade' comment, I've talked about doing spade work but I garden. Does Hillary or the person who vets her comments? She may (or may have) not meant anything racial. There is a question...but ther is no question what Limbaugh meant. Can anyone imagine how nuts the right would go if anyone called one of the Bush twins a ho?
NoGWBPolicyLeftinplace @ 26:
Sounds like your aunts boyfriend is a taker and not acting his true age - much like Rush.
Limberger is fortunate he's not Imus (also an idiot) because were he, he'd be peddling pencils out of a tin can by now. Of course, the tiny-brained folk, aka conservative Republicans, think he's just hilarious.
This is the same moron who suggested Chelsea was the Clinton's other family dog. He's fortunate Bill has a better handle on his temper than I would have.
This is old ass second rate amos and andy crap.
Husayn Ibn Ali was the grandson of Mohammed and a martyr to his religion. The Shia in particular revere him, because they wanted leaders directly related to Mohammed, whereas the Sunni didn't necessarily require that.
So someone naming a kid Hussein doesn't necessarily mean anymore than naming a kid David (as in the King), or George (as in the Saint).
Medical Diagnosis by Video @ 1:
Um, because there are plenty of racists in the military?
Rush Limbaugh is a cocaine addict.
Insulting jokes.
General_Rennenkampf @ 98:
All of which is utterly irrelevant, because 90% of the American electorate (including the ones that support Obama) are too lazy or stupid to care. For them, Hussein=Saddam, end of story.
I think Fat Slob Limpdick is angry again and projecting the word "whore" at Hillary because he is once again MAD AT HIS MAMMA THE WHORE.
and I think FAT SLOB Limpdick is angry again at his BLACK DADDY.
WTF?????
Damn, what a disgusting piece of filth this guy is. What a shameless waste of food.
Time for me to dust off my "Rush the Racist Bigot" song for your listening pleasure once again.
How can he get away with this crap, but Imus gets pushed off the air?
I don't like Obama but this is BS!
I don't say this very often but the world would be a much better place if this douche bag were dead.
rain @ 131:
Just for the record. I will again point out that I did not use the word "elect" or "elected" in my post...very consciously!
This guy is so repulsive ... It disgusts me that he still gets airtime ..
This is blatantly racist material here. Consider it a testing of the waters in terms of what neocons can get away with saying this election. All the more reason for a serious uproar over this trash that really does nothing more than set us back in time. Sets us back to a time when white was right and black was a sin. Just imagine where all of the Latinos and Asian Americans fit into Rush's idea of a better America.
And still this will probably just fade away. Here's hoping it doesn't.

god I feel sorry for those poor girls...christ can you imagine? I'd prefer bathing in gasoline and lighting myself on fire.

What makes you think he likes girls?
