Limbaugh: paranoid delusional. Holy crap.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

Rush: Obama "indoctrinated as a child...father was a communist, mother was a leftist." Ivy League schools "reinforced" his "contempt" for US"

I don't mean to make fun of mental illness. It's no laughing matter. Does he really believe this shit? And expects others to believe it? If he does, I have to say in all seriousness, he has issues and needs help. And yes I realize a log of knuckle-dragging, low-information, low-IQ teabaggers do believe it. That's why someone like him ought not to have a public platform. He's unstable.

And no I don't listen to the festering boil. But I do follow Media Matters on Twitter (https://twitter.com/mmfa) and they just tweeted this from the old pusbag.

1. Just more insane backlash projection.

2. Pay me $50 million per year.

I'll believe anything.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

3. That and all the Oxycontin one can handle...

...I guess so! Just. Wow.

[Turbineguy]

16. Well, yes

and some other mind altering drugs as well. I'd have to bone up on my lying skills as well.

[Cleita]

4. I don't think he believes anything he spews.

He does it for the money and power, which actually makes him a sociopath, and that is worse than being delusional which is what you are suggesting.

[struggle4progress]

5. He gets paid to grab attention by causing controversy over his outrageous blather

IMO he's not crazy: he's simply completely amoral

What's scary is that some people agree with what he says

[kestrel91316]

6. If he were a delusional paranoid I might have some sympathy for him. But he isn't.

He is a flaming feculant gasbag full of bile and hate, and he CHOOSES to be this way.

7. All repugs trying to out-crazy each other.

8. It's his roar of protest that an upper middle class kid like him

barely got into a lowest tier college (and flunked out) while some member of the underclass--a black guy with a funny name, ferkrssakes!--went through the Ivy League and into "his" government! It's outrageous! They really are taking over! They are going to destroy us all! The sky is falling! Buk buk buk buk buk!

That's what this is all about, he and his listeners are failures and dropouts and sellouts who can't stand it that somebody who should automatically be an inferior went so much farther than they did.

Never mind the 50 IQ points that allowed Obama to succeed while they failed miserably. Never mind the fact that with their intelligence and ability, they've already succeeded beyond equivalent people of color. Obama took their place! Every one of them!

And this is why people are still listening to the pustule. He tells them they'd be successful if only blacks and women hadn't been allowed out of the janitorial squad and kitchen.

That's what we're up against, folks.

13. +1000 n/t

9. Drug-Fueled rages are common from Oxy dust snorters

he should get treatment but he lives in the middle of pill popping heaven S. Florida.

[progressivebydesign]

10. I do worry because they seem to be ratcheting up the hate machine again.. like 2008.

I mean the absolute pandering to the people that REALLY are disturbed and unstable, not the guys that make millions pretending to be.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

14. That concerns me as well....

....that one of them will act upon the crazy.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

11. This is disrespectful to the President of the United States

[BumRushDaShow]

12. So basically, if rethugs were looking to him for fresh talking points

today of all days, they got nothing but his usual warmed over, chewed up and spit out drivel.

So he has nothing. I suppose he can sympathize as he probably has all sorts of illegal offshore money that he's hiding too.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

15. Yep. They just get another spit shower from Rush.

[Comrade_McKenzie]

17. You mean he wasn't raised to be a vulture with contempt for his own prey? nt

[reformist2]

18. This sounds like they're starting to lose even the crazy base.

So they have to "remind" them of what a monster Obama is so they'll be motivated to go out and vote for Romney.

[npk]

19. Does anyone believe that Rush does any actual research?

The man has publicly stated numerous times that he mostly watches Fox News for about a couple hours each night, and then begins his show prep. Yet he also has stated that much of his show prep comes for Drudge. I wonder if Matt Drudge took down his website, would Rush even have a show? This guy is making however many millions of dollars a year to sit in a chair and talk about stories that other people have written. He does no actually research of his own, which is why he runs into so many problems. He is basically believing that every story that appears on Drudge or Fox News is 100% correct. If it turns out the story is complete BS, which 99% of the time it is, he just complains about how the media took his comments out of context.

What kills me to no end is how this man goes on about how people that don't make millions of bucks a year or can't afford an upper class lifestyle are just lazy bums who don't make the effort. What effort does this man make, sitting behind a microphone for 3 hours a day reading other people's stories from the Internet? Yeah I guess that takes a lot of ambition.

20. The Grand Dragon of Radio

Apparently coined by Bob Franken.

[nolabear]

21. Remember, A Face in the Crowd on TMC Wednesday night. All you need to understand Rush.

And Beck. I don't know about Beck; he may be a classic hysteric who managed to get a job ginning up hysteria. But Rush? Rush is a mean little narcissist who believes he can lead the sheeple down whatever path he chooses and knows a paying gig when he sees one. I think he just might have jumped the shark but there's no underestimating the American capacity for hate.

I don't think Romney will have anything to do with him, though, and that might be good news.

[tanyev]

22. Hey, Rush. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

Now go and boil your bottom, you son of a silly person.
