Limbaugh furious about Springsteen/Fallon parody of Christie in "Born to Run"

[Rowdyboy]

DON"T MAKE CHRIS CHRISTIE CRY!!!!!

Apparently Rush Limpballs has his knickers in a twist over Springsteens' "lowrent character" in daring to insult his "biggest fan", Chris Christie...

Bruce Springsteen joined Jimmy Fallon Tuesday night for a “Born to Run” parody about “BridgeGate,” but Rush Limbaugh didn’t find anything amusing about it, instead going after Springsteen for being so willing to mock the governor, a man who has said time and again he is such a huge Springsteen fan.

Limbaugh was bothered that Springsteen had the nerve to mock and deride such a big fan of his just because he’s a Republican. To Limbaugh, the only people viewed as real fans of artists and celebrities like Springsteen can’t possibly be conservative.

Limbaugh concluded, “And here is the guy who brought him to tears by talking to him making fun of him on a late night comedy show. That is really––you talk about low rent character.”

Conservative radio host and political commentator Limbaugh was appalled that Springsteen had the nerve to ridicule one of his biggest fans just because he’s a Republican.

“There's no question that's painful. The nerve of Springsteen! Governor Christie has attended over 127 Springsteen concerts. Governor Christie loves this guy. It's 127 different concerts he's attended, and he's mocked, he's made fun of,” Limbaugh said.

Referring to the first meeting between Springsteen and Christie which had the New Jersey Governor very emotional, Limbaugh said the musician ought to be ashamed of himself.

“That is really––you talk about low rent character,” he concluded.

4. Somebody call the drug addled pedophile the Whaaaambulance

Poor wittle thing

[Rowdyboy]

7. He's having a breakdown

[WinkyDink]

6. As a digression: I've seen women who follow artists this much get derided, but when a MAN does it...

[malaise]

8. How ironic given that

Scumbaugh and Christie are the low rent characters.

The Boss has long seen through both ReTHUG sleazebags.

[Berlum]

10. I bet a sack of doughnuts that Jimmy + Bruce do a NUMBER on Rush next

He's too tempting a target to resist...Rush is a consummate Chickenhawk Republicon Draft-dodging serial-spousing pill-popping bloviator and spinner. In that way he is a compleat embodiment not of Republicon propaganda, but of the reality of Republicon so-called "Family Values."

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. Oh dear, I hope Rush doesn't pop an artiery.

or maybe I do.

[Rowdyboy]

13. Or worse!

[Hosnon]

12. Rush's show is constantly doing musical parodies.

And why does he think he is any sort of authority on what a "low rent" character is?

[Rowdyboy]

14. Oh he's an authority on "low rent characters" all right

[Brickbat]

15. Bruce made him cry?

[workinclasszero]

16. I don't care what a draft dodging pill poppin drug addict fascist bastard

thinks about anything.

So a big FU to limpballs.

WTG Bruce!

[Frank Cannon]

66. You forgot thrice-divorced pedophile sex tourist.

I mean, let's just be clear about whom we're talking about here. Your post was a little vague.

[workinclasszero]

68. Thats right sorry

Yup Rush is the poster child for Republican family values.

[spanone]

17. bwahahahahaaa... i love anything that pisses off that ignorant asshole!!

do it again bruce!!!!

[Rowdyboy]

33. His tears taste particularly sweet this morning!

[catbyte]

18. Boo fucking hoo

[sendero]

19. Limbaugh..

.... wants to impugn the character of ANYONE? That's laughable. Hypocrite.

[Rex]

20. Who is Rush Limbaugh?

Must be some has-been.

[dembotoz]

21. you tube parady song will have much greater legs than any press confernce statement

and rush knows this

[CreekDog]

22. Limbaugh then ate a meatloaf the size of a Volkswagen

[marions ghost]

23. AWWWWWW

Poor Gov Crispie is soooo hurt by the fact that his idol doesn't care for his behavior...

Crispie's Springsteen Luv was only an act anyway.

Thanks Bruce, for speaking out.

[jsr]

24. The Big Fat Idiot is jealous

[Kingofalldems]

25. He would know all about low rent.

[Baitball Blogger]

26. Guess what? I think Christie got his feelings hurt over this and news made it through

the Repub grapevine.

You can call them liars and cheats and they won't feel a thing. But get them where they really live, concert tickets and music idols, and their whole worlds fall apart.

[deutsey]

28. Blow it out your ass, Limbaugh n/t

[Liberal_Dog]

29. Well, Now My Whole Day Is Ruined

Knowing that Rush is so upset, I think I will spend the whole day in bed.


Nah, not really.

[giftedgirl77]

30. As a groupie you would think Christie would be

ecstatic that Springsteen acknowledged him at all.

Fuck Rush Limpballs it's bad enough he voices his damn opinion when it comes to politics but now he's sounding off on everything else imaginable.

[whathehell]

67. Actually, he just might be..A lot of high profile people are, at best, complimented and

at worst, indifferent when they're being parodied

[calimary]

31. Low-rent character? Well, you would know, wouldn't you, rush?

[Boomerproud]

32. I wouldn't listen to him if I was paid to-but isn't he an "entertainer"

who mocks Democrats and liberals on a daily basis. Another example of Limbaugh's hypocrisy.

[El_Johns]

34. "low rent"? lol.

[Blue Owl]

35. Just makes it that much better

[Gothmog]

36. This video hit home

I love it when Rush is unhappy

[Iggo]

37. If you're pissing off assholes, you're doing it right.

[William769]

38. Kick & recommended.

[3catwoman3]

39. Anything that pisses off...

that blowhard brings a smile to my face.

[no_hypocrisy]

40. I thought Rush didn't like Christie.

Bruce agrees with him.

[Lint Head]

41. But Rush. Hurting people is YOUR thing. I know it's hard when those weak liberal types

piss on stupidly idiotic asshole right wingers like you and your good old boy bigoted friends. You have hate down to a science. You wrap it in false assumptions and fiction so it is palatable and easier to be racist and anti women without really coming out and saying the "n" word or the "c" word. But that "slut" thing it was genius. That word is really working for you. Keep on using it. You could start calling yourself Slut Limbaugh. It's edgy. Sounds better than Rush and puts people in their place. Follow you bliss Limpy and keep people informed of what a true greedy rich Viagra Oxycontin taking asshole you are capable of being. Push it to the max. Courage! Wait that's a Dan Rather thing and you don't want to say something a caring compassionate liberal says.

[City Lights]

42. LOL!

"you talk about low rent character" - Limburger is the lowest of the low rent characters.

Go fuck yourself, Limburger.

[Lex]

43. Most everything that Springsteen sings about is the exact opposite Christie's politics.

Why would Christie be so crazy about a singer who stands for the opposite of what Christie stands for?

[carrowsboy]

45. Yeah

Like Paul Ryan saying Rage Against The Machine is his favorite band.

Do these idiots even listen to their "faves" lyrics?

[adirondacker]

44. Ah, the stench of Pure Projection. nt

[MrScorpio]

46. More proof that Rush is merely a parody of himself. nt

[Skraxx]

47. Poor, Poor, Delicate Flowers

[malaise]

48. Then it's a good day

He doesn't get to decide how others think about ReTHUG scumbags like himself or Christie.

[muriel_volestrangler]

49. I don't think Limbaugh is furious about anything that doesn't hurt him directly

He sees chances to stir up the mouth-breathers who listen to him, for fun and profit, like this. An advertiser leaving his show - that's what makes him furious. Someone reminding the world of his drug addiction, or his cowardly draft-dodging - these are things that affect him. He is a pure narcissist.

[Initech]

50. LEAVE CHRISTIE ALONE!!!!!!

[shenmue]

51. Pot calling kettle

What a maroon.

[onethatcares]

52. who paid for Christie to attend

127 concerts??? Jeebus, those tickets to see the boss ain't cheap, neither is the parking.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

60. That money would buy a lot of charity.

And Bruce wouldn't miss it.

I've seen Bruce live twice in the last 36 years (1978, 2000) and he has more talent and soul and decency in his little toenail than those two losers Christie and Limbaugh.

Limbaugh is a loser crybaby. I thought the parody was funny -- I loved "tollbooths of glory!"

Rush can't stand a bit of mild poking fun, but he has no problem with trying to destroy other peoples' reputations, like Sandra Fluke.

[bvar22]

53. So Christie attended 127 Springsteen concerts,

....but never listened to the words of Springsteen's songs?

[alcibiades_mystery]

55. That's what I'm fuckin' sayin!

Who are these people who don't recognize Springsteen's on the sleeve politics. It's incredible!

[alcibiades_mystery]

54. Springsteen is a New Deal, union LEFTIST...the sooner today's conservatives get that through their

thick skulls, the better.

Do they even listen to the damn music?

[Rowdyboy]

56. The only explanation I've ever come up with is that maybe Christie hoped to glom on to

Springsteens' popularity and working class image in NJ. The fact that Bruce despises the pissant just makes it all the better.

[Kurovski]

57. Aww, Rushie, honey...

no one is lower rent than you.

You thump on your entire species.

[Arkana]

58. Boo hoo, Rush.

And he's really one to talk about low-rent character.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

61. Hey, he sends his maid to buy his OXY.

That's high rent. Or is it low rent?

[Rowdyboy]

63. Or the classy way Limbaugh made fun of Michael J Fox's Parkinson's disease...

Class act, that Rushbo

[Hassin Bin Sober]

64. Forgot about that one

[Lunacee_2013]

62. They sure can dish it out,

but they just can't take it. I wonder how that one women, the one he basically called a whore, is feeling. Although, now that I think about it, she probably doesn't give a damn what Rush says.

On edit: lol, first post mentions her name! Sandra Fluke, that's her.

[SidDithers]

65. Here's the video, for anyone who hasn't seen it...
