Rush Limbaugh, the false profit
"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and why? Because Saddam 'allegedly' gassed a few Kurds in his own country. Mark my words. All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a 'war criminal' or 'committing crimes against humanity' is the same old thing. Liberal Hate Speech! And speaking of poison gas . . . I say we round up all the drug addicts and gas them."
Rush Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988

2. unfortunately there hasn't been any real proof that he said this
there's no audio, and if you google it, all the hits are very recent.

3. Sounds a little too pat...especially the 'drug addict' reference...
...until then, you had me. Sounds just like him.

5. Sorry guys
I swear it was an accident. I got it from a local Dem mailing list. I'll let the person who sent it to me know its a hoax.

8. Rush Limbaugh, the world's biggest PUSSY!
As much as I hate O'Reilly and Hannity, at least they'll have some contrary guests on their shows...they'll try to talk over them, but at least they're on the air...no such luck with regard to the Oxy-Moron...
