Rush Limbaugh is Scum
Rush Limbaugh really is a big fat idiot. However, he is also the scum of the earth. The fat right wing bastard who dodged the draft in Vietnam due to a boil on his big ass has the nerve to call troops who oppose the war in Iraq 'Phony Soldiers'? Fuck him and take him off of the Armed Forces Radio Network.

1. Well its what they want!!!
The democrats tried taking him off the air before--they gave the troops a vote on who was broadcasted on the armed forces network--and Rush won overwelmingly. So considering the majority of the military listens too and approves of Rush--what is you opinion of our brave men and women serving this country?

3. Ummmm....are you serious?
You honestly believe that our soldiars were aloud to democratically pick who they listen to on the Armed Forces Network? How could Rush win if there were no competition?

Because you have a captive audience doesn't mean that they overwhelmingly approve of the crap that's force fed to them.

It's you who doesn't respect our brave men and women of the service....you dishoner them by assuming that they are all * supporters and can't think for themselves.

How about I pose a question to you. Those overwhelming numbers that you talk about? Were they all officers? Were they all White? Were there any minorities? Any Women?

Until you can answer these questions...you don't know if there was a fair vote do you?

Ummmm...I think I will enjoy this show!!

:popcorn:

6. Heres the Link
Ask and you shall recieve. I wasnt completely correct--the troops were asked--"Who do you want that we don't at present carry?" Rush wasnt even listed on the ballot and still won. Regardless--you have to admit the majority of soilders vote republican--and therefore prefer someone like Rush on Armed Forces Radio--so let them have what they want.

12. The majority of soldiers do NOT vote Republican. Huge, debunked myth.
If that were true, Faux news would have been screaming that statistic from the rooftops when the skewed 2004 election results rolled in. The fact that the military vote percentages were never announced in the mainstream media backs up what most enlisted personnel will tell you...

...just because the military are brainwashed with Republican bull-crap doesn't mean they buy it. I have more than a few friends and family members who are career military, and they know the troops voted 60%-40% in favor of Kerry. After all, Bush's policies do nothing but get American soldiers killed. The troops fear him and his slipshod "leadership." He's a pariah and a black plague in the eyes of the vast majority of the armed forces.

Nowadays, you'd be lucky to find 20% of the troops supporting the brain-dead chimp.

Also, Wikipedia can be edited by ANYONE. Any Rush Limpballs sympathizer can add a blurb on that page stating that the troops are dying to hear the fat pied piper's show, but that doesn't make it true. It's highly unlikely anyone but a Rush worshiper would have created that Wiki page in the first place. Wiki is hardly a credible source for such stats.

Nice try, though. Thanks for stopping by. :hi:

Edited on Tue Oct-02-07 09:42 PM by quinnox
They are being served disgracefully by the likes of president Bush! I have more respect for the little finger of the lowest private than I have for Bush.

11. he also cries and demands an apology from the Dems
yet he never took responsibility for calling a then-12 year old Chelsea Clinton "The White House dog" and instead blamed his words on a technician's mistake
