Limbaugh attacks Clark's substance and mental health
On today's radio show, Rush Limbaugh again hit rock bottom when he discussed Wesley Clark. Limbaugh claimed that Clark's candidacy was a triumph of "symbolism over substance." I have included a comparison between Clark's and Limbaugh's resumes to show the utter fatuousness of this. Also, Limbaugh is attempting to portray Clark simultaneously as someone who is both trying to start World War III AND as someone who would surrender to our enemies. This is filth.

1. "Symbolism over substance"
Oh, boy, that's rich! Did he just give us a new anti-Bush meme? Thanks Rush!

2. I was thinking the same thing
Bush is all image and no substance.

6. Hey don't hold back
I always wonder what I'd say if by coincidence I saw a famous person like at an airport.

OJ Simpson: "Murderer"
Sean Hannity: "Arrogant Prick"
Limbaugh: "Hey Asshole"

But I would assume Limbaugh lives such a sheltered life away from reality he rarely encouters real people.

I caught about 5 minutes of his bombast before I couldn't take it anymore - the part where he was telling his minions how we need professional politicians now - not amateurs (As if you can be a successful NATO commander without also be a good politician). (Of course the hypocrisy in regards to Ahnuld escapes them). (And Bush my extension). He is shameless.

7. Sophistry over Substance
Is exactly what Limbaugh's entire career is built upon.

8. It's amazing that they can make these pronouncements before
he's even hit the campaign trail. The only people who believe his crap are the 30 or so percent who would still vote Republican even if Jesus Christ was the Democrat candidate.

10. I prefer the analogy that
30% of the population would vote for Bush even after getting caught En Flagrante Delicto with a female Goat on live TV.

(Shameless plug - I have to do a post with the phrase "En Flagrante Delicto" at least once a quarter. I always envision a Freeper lurker going "Ethel, what does One fragrant Delicatessen mean?")

13. The Repukes Always Resort to Calling the Opposition Crazy if they can't
find anything that remotely resembles a sex scandel. They're a two trick poney. yawn.

14. Clark does an impressive mimicry of O'Reilly and Bush
according to an Esquire article (I posted it awhile ago). Perhaps that can be used on the campaign trail or at least has potential for a SNL appearance. Maybe he can pick up Limbaugh too...that would be hilarious.
