Cenk Uygur responds to a video of Rush Limbaugh analyzing a clip of Robert Reich on Cenk's MSNBC show discussing taxes and wealth redistribution. Uygur is especially amused by how Rush pronounces names - Cenk suggests that years of drugs (Oxycontin) screwed up Limbaugh's hearing.

1. Rush thinks he can spit on the little guy..

Cause his Chair is embroidered with; "The GOD of Talk Radio" on the back. Um, no Rush, you really aren't.

[chervilant]

22. Good Point!

AND, to illustrate that fact, I did an impromptu 'survey' of a random number of strangers in a grocery store after one of Rush's infamous spews, and NOT ONE PERSON knew of him or his show.

2. I like Cenk

Take no prisoners!

[jillan]

3. Isn't it about time for him to retire?

On edit - I was referring to Rush, not Cenk.

4. It's OK Cenk......

He can't pronounce the names of underaged Dominican boys either,
And he gets "Horse Stable" and "Picnic Table" mixed up all the time,
just look at what he's full of.

5. Rush is such a child

Do people really take him seriously?

9. Do people really take him seriously?

Yep, we've got some real dumb fucks in America these days.

[SkyDaddy7]

11. You have to take him seriously...

He is very good at dividing the middle class & getting them to fight each other rather than go after the rich!

...FOX "News" does the exact same thing!

Maybe it is different, I am sure it is, than it is down here in the South but almost anyone you talk with down here gets their news straight from Rush in the afternoon & FOX "News" at night! And when you talk with them if you can stomach it they repeat exactly what they have been told! In a way it is really sad but it plays a big role in why this country can't get moving forward!

21. Brainwashing

Correct SkyDaddy7. "And when you talk with them if you can stomach it they repeat exactly what they have been told!"

Rush follows the rules of Nazi propaganda precisely , and he is the most destructive force to Democracy in America, doing far more damage than any terrorist.

From Mein Kampf,

"All propaganda must be popular and its intellectual level must be adjusted to the most limited intelligence among those it is addressed to. Consequently, the greater the mass it is intended to reach, the lower its purely intellectual level will have to be. But if, as in propaganda for sticking out a war, the aim is to influence a whole people, we must avoid excessive intellectual demands on our public, and too much caution cannot be extended in this direction."

"The receptivity of the great masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan."

[SkyDaddy7]

23. Creepy but true...It could be FOX "News" Business Model!

And of course Right Wing talk radio!

I have said for a long time that the Democrats are at a severe disadvantage because true solutions to many of our problems today are complex & require an audience to listen & THINK!

Talk Radio led by Rush follows that quote you pasted almost verbatim!

8. I beg to differ.

Lush Bimbo isn't totally "worker hating."

[olegramps]

14. Aren't you being a little too kind?

[ScottLand]

10. Way to go Rush! If you don't have a valid point, make fun of

their names.

[stlsaxman]

12. "... to be fair to Rush, though"- fire w/ fire, Cenk! NEVER be fair to Rush...

The Vulgar Pigboy deserves to get as good as he gives.

Excellent segment!

[Enthusiast]

16. Vulgar Pigboy is a good term. nt

[stlsaxman]

18. all credit for that name goes to BartCop.

he's labeled Rush that since the early days when www.bartcop.com was called RLIALNGB or "Rush Limbaugh Is A Lying Nazi Gas Bag".

[ejbr]

13. Oh SNAP!!! Oxycontin

:rofl:

[mwb970]

15. What an asshole. \nt

[onlyadream]

17. Middle class - divide and conquer

BUT what should be pointed out is that if you reduce all (public) union jobs to nothing, you just reduced your consumer base. That will affect many non-union jobs and thus the entire middle class.

[stlsaxman]

19. I'm gonna edit from 1:38 to 1:45 and post it as "The Limbaugh Balloon Pops!"

:rofl:

[HopeHoops]

20. Oxy-Rush

[center rising]

24. That's druggie boy for you

[Plucketeer]

25. Even tho he's lost weight..

Rush STILL instantly brings Jabba the Hut to mind. Only difference is that Jabba was more honest and less delusional!

[dsharp88]

26. Was this on MSNBC or TYT??? nt
