No tomorrow for Elizabeth Edwards? Ha, more than Bernie Mac's ass got.

I stand by what I said. I'm tired of "and has cancer" becoming to life's problems what "in bed" is to fortune cookie fortunes: as if it's added on for impact. I'm not saying cancer isn't horrible, but I'm annoyed that it's being used to quantify Edwards' offense. Even Edwards himself is guilty of this, since he tries to downplay it by saying that it happened when her cancer is in remission. Because: Less cancer = less bad!!q23rkfljl WTF-ever.

What does quantify or add impact to something? If not a life threatening/terminal disease then what? Or are you so impartial that you weigh every act on its own merit regardless of the circumstances of the parties involved? That's pretty cold and calculating for someone that gets busted up over fictional dog deaths

What if John Edwards had cheated on his cancer infested dog?

What, like going to a shelter and adopting a pound puppy to walk on a leash down the sidewalk, or to pound the puppy in the ass on a leach down the sidewalk?

Either way, I am still attracted to Hillary Clinton. It's gotta be the powet.

Hold on a second...you're actually trying to tell me that you think Limbaugh was blaming Liz Edwards for her husband's indiscretion in that quote?

No wonder you people hate him so much...you have no sense of humor or sarcasm.

I have a great sense of humor and sarcasm is my second language but Rush says the most retarded, disgusting things I've heard out of anyone's mouth in a long time. I can't believe he has a radio show.

I just reassure myself that he's only kidding and then it's not so bad.

Word. Pretty much anything Ann Coulter says runs right on his heels *cough9-11widowscough*. Even my beloved former father-in-law, who once said Rush was the wind beneath his wings, wouldn't have liked that. Personally, I prefer my sarcasm served with a side order of wit, and that is definitely not his stock in trade.

It's disgusting to you because you disagree with the perspective fueling his comments, not because what he's saying is so vile and contemptible. Amazing that people will listen to truly filthy stuff on pay television and laugh their asses off to it while getting indignant and taking offense at something you hear on open airways.

Derrick · « **Reply #39 on:** Aug 15, 2008, 08:27:21 PM »

Rush is retarded. He's a drug addict who only fuels paranoia and anger.

The left is the same way, minus the long record of concealed homosexuality and illicit drug-use.

IDE · « **Reply #40 on:** Aug 15, 2008, 10:37:53 PM »

Was Rush really a "drug addict" or did he just like to party?

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #41 on:** Aug 15, 2008, 11:02:55 PM »

He was addicted to prescription pain-killers (Wikipedia says it was oxycodone and hydrocodone) following a surgery that went awry, for which he entered rehab before being accused later of doctor-shopping in Florida to obtain them. When the state couldn't prove the charges he settled with them by paying for the investigation costs and agreeing to random drug screens.

As for fueling paranoia and anger, maybe...the paranoia and anger on the part of those who don't like what he's saying and want to shut him up.

Let's not forget his impromtu trips to Haiti after getting large amounts of painkillers and cialis. Haiti has one of the largest industries of child prostitution. I heard the little brown girls are the best.

Either way, he's a fucking retard, and only dumbasses afraid of standing up for themselves listen to his opinions.

IDE · « **Reply #43 on:** Aug 16, 2008, 02:34:14 PM »

No way he went to haiti to get laid. That's like playing Russian roulette with all the chambers loaded except one. I won't even eat at The Checker's near my building cause it's full of haitians.

Derrick · « **Reply #44 on:** Aug 16, 2008, 03:06:43 PM »

Little virgin girls?

I think he would. He can't get any in the free world.

Oh they might recognize him but theres still thailand or anywhere else that isn't infested with HIV.

Derrick · « **Reply #47 on:** Aug 16, 2008, 04:01:24 PM »

Haiti's only a short trip, he has a contract, mind you. Plus, he might like chocolate more than caramel.

All I know is, who goes to Haiti, regardless?

That's a mighty big assumption...or is that presumption? Thanks for helping me prove what I said earlier about paranoia.

Derrick · « **Reply #49 on:** Aug 16, 2008, 11:21:42 PM »

Why would he go to Haiti?! Unless it's all a conspiracy to make fun of Michael J. Fox some more.

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #50 on:** Aug 17, 2008, 10:18:26 PM »

Dr. Venture went to Mehico to teach at a community college...and hit up local Tijuana doctors for prescription meds. I figure Rush was most likely up to the same thing.

Not that mocking Doc Hollywood wasn't worthwhile...he admitted to not taking his meds during his time on the Hill to play to people's sympathy.

You're the one that got "busted up", since a mere preference obviously bothers you so much.

Yes, I do think acts should weigh on their own merit. I find it interesting that you're telling me I should judge to include "circumstances" when I don't even have all of them. Sounds to me that you're so impartial you'd just jump on the side of whoever's dying. I almost can't wait 'til I have cancer. Oh boy! I'll win at everything!!!e321rklnlg Yay, pity!

If not a life threatening/terminal disease then what?

What do you mean "then what"? That's my whole point. Then nothing.

As for Rush, I'm continually amazed that anyone cares about what he says or does. You may as well ask me to be concerned about where my poo goes after I flush.

IDE · « **Reply #52 on:** Aug 18, 2008, 02:14:30 AM »

pfft I wasn't the one busted up about anything then or now.

Of course I'm not completely impartial. I (like most people and our judicial system) believe in extenuating circumstances being taken into consideration to judge an act.

IDE · « **Reply #53 on:** Aug 18, 2008, 02:34:03 AM »

Not saying there's a law in this case, but we have different degrees of murder etc. based on the circumstances. I'm saying it's just natural to sympathize or condemn to a greater or lesser degree based on the circumstances to the point that even the laws that govern our society do so.

What filthy stuff? Regardless, two wrongs make a right?

I just plain don't like mean. I've never watched a reality show because I don't like to see people being humiliated. I've never seen Jerry Springer. Rush is, as my dear late grandmother would have phrased it, "tacky". If that makes me some kind of wuss, so be it, but commentary such as his totally goes against what I learned as the Golden Rule, and I'm having a rather difficult time beliving that I'm the only person within airwave earshot with the same sentiment. Hence, I don't listen to him. That's one of the beautiful things about living in a free country - the right to eradicate a station from one's car dial.

If he's anyone's inspiration, fine. Once again, living in a free country....

Aren't there people making equally asinine comments on leftist shows? Do you watch them?

If filthy stuff is boobs and violence then I say bring it on my friends.

Me? Not unless you count Graham Norton or Eddie Izzard specials. Sports channels, anime on iatv, Discovery/History/Science channels, Sci-Fi, BBC, and Boomerang on occasion. Cartoon Network is really dull lately.

Yeah it is. Have you seen total drama island? It's like it was a funny idea that never should've actually been put into practice. I mean get what's funny about the idea but actually doing it as a series is retarded. It would've made a good short...maybe.

And they've marathon'd all the eps at least twice.
