Rush Limbaugh Agrees With Wisconsin Official: Protesters Are A “Bunch Of Slobs”
http://www.mediaite.com/online/rush-limbaugh-agrees-with-wisconsin-official-protesters-are-a-bunch-of-slobs/

Wisconsin’s Republican State Senator Glenn Grothman last night appeared on MSNBC and called protesters who stayed over night in the Capitol building “slobs.” Rush Limbaugh agreed with the description and was appalled by the “descent into barbarism” going on amongst the “union thugs.”

Rush, not surprisingly, went a bit further in his description of the “bunch of slobs,” suggesting that despite Democrats and the media wanting the public to think that it is average, hard-working teachers and firefighters protesting, instead it is actually “long-haired, maggot-infested, dope-smoking, FM rock and roller types.” Now that’s a cruel insult, does anyone actually listen to FM radio anymore? Furthermore, Rush put his anger into a much broader context:

“It makes me sick to watch angry, militant, ungrateful state employees with jobs complain that they can’t receive extravagant benefit and pension contributions from people who have no money because they are out of work.”


Surprisingly, that might seem like Rush championing the interests of the unemployed, yet shortly thereafter, Rush returns to some more comfortable territory by railing against bureaucrats who he deemed to be “not a protected species.”

Jeff, you really are the master of projection. Remember collecting your welfare and looking at underage boy-porn while living on your friend's basement couch? Who's really the "slob?"

15. Real Wisconsin leftists don't use Kotex - they were invented by the Sensenbrenner family.

16. They got nothing else...
All they have is name calling. They can't fight on the facts so this is their strategy.
