My Take on Limbaugh

by Ron McBride

I have been quite silent of late, letting those evil ones hang themselves, and brother let me tell you they are doing a terrific job of doing just that.

My father and grandfather railed against the ignorance of Sen. Joe McCarthy back in the 50’s when I was in my formative years. Since neither are around now I guess its up to me to pickup the mantle and wade into the fray.

Rush Limbaugh is a joke to 75% of Americans and to nearly everyone else in the World.

But we know that he isn’t a joke, he is a dangerous rabble rouser who will more than likely create the spark that causes some nut to attempt to do harm to our President.

McCarthy shot to the forefront of the media efforts when he held a press conference and waved a piece of paper that he claimed was a “list” of names of Communists in positions of influence. In hindsight we now know from information gathered from aides of his that it was not a list of names. That was created later to keep the media following him around and build support for what he hoped was a run for the White House. Self Serving? you know it.

Rush’s ridiculous charges against any Democrat he places in his sights are more of the same. His efforts are more than self serving they are distracting from the efforts of many on both sides of the aisle who want to get this country and Washington in particular, straightened out and back on the right path.

Limbaugh said:

“If I wanted Obama to succeed, I’d be happy the Republicans have laid down. I don’t want this to work. So I’m thinking of replying to this guy, say ‘okay, I’ll send you a response, but I don’t need 400 words, I need four: ‘I hope he fails’.

This was Rush’s response to what Obama said previously to Republicans in Washington. Obama was telling the Republicans they need to move beyond the movement-conservative ideology that has shaped their politics since the Reagan years and seek a more pragmatic approach to opposition.

Limbaugh’s baseless remarks, represents belligerence to the fullest! He has a finely honed ability to twist and distort reality. His rants are affected by chronic inaccuracy, and the bad part is that he is not accountable to anyone. He lies and then builds on each new one.

Rush’s favorite phrase is, “I’m not making this up, folks, it’s time to duck and cover.” When you hear these words you know that somewhere, somehow he heard someone say maybe a word or two that he could distort and twist into another Great Lie. If this idiot, yes I said idiot, (he was an idiot back here in Cape Girardeau, MO where he grew up, and he hasn’t changed much since then) is representative of GOP values, then I am glad I was never lured into their regressive cells. Yep, I said regressive instead of our Progressive values, the GOP who follow Rush’s lead have their proverbial heads up their regressive… well you know what I mean.
