This is probably the only time I’m going to bring this up, because the MSM and the left (pardon the redundancy) will be keeping this going for a while. Last week on his show, Rush Limbaugh was talking to a caller, and the following exchange took place (note that this exchange wasn’t Dowdified like the Media Morons and BowelMovement.org have done):
RUSH: It’s not possible intellectually to follow these people.
CALLER: No, it’s not. And what’s really funny is they never talk to real soldiers. They like to pull these soldiers that come up out of the blue and spout to the media.
RUSH: The phony soldiers.
CALLER: The phony soldiers. If you talk to any real soldier and they’re proud to serve, they want to be over in Iraq, they understand their sacrifice and they’re willing to sacrifice for the country.
RUSH: They joined to be in Iraq.
RUSH: It’s frustrating and maddening, and why they must be kept in the minority. I want to thank you, Mike, for calling. I appreciate it very much.
John F’ing Kerry (who is rumored to have served in Vietnam) called Limbaugh’s remarks “disgusting and an embarrassment.” Yeah, the same Kerry who completely made up stories about atrocities he allegedly saw in ‘Nam (and later admitted he never saw it, but just heard about it). The same Kerry whose famous “cut of ears, cut off limbs, fashion reminiscent of Jenjiss Khan, etc.” lies earned him the praise and adoration of the guys he served with to the point that these guys sank his presidential aspirations faster than a Ted Kennedrunk car. Yeah, that guy.
And Tom Harkin says wonders if Rush “was just high on his drugs again.” Tee-hee-hee…funny, considering that Harkin is himself a “phony war hero”, too!
Sen. Harry “Land Shark” Reid wants a Senate resolution of condemnation, and has dared uttered these words:
Reid stated that he is confident that “Republicans join with us in overwhelming numbers,” arguing that “anything less would be a double standard that has no place in the United States Senate.”
“Double standard”, Reid? You mean like showing outrage to someone like Limbaugh but not at ABC News for talking about the very same thing? You mean like being torqued about Limbaugh referencing these DOJ “phony soldier” prosecutions (Operation Stolen Valor)? Is that the kind of double standard to which you refer, you sanctimonious pile of chicken squeeze? No damned wonder your approval ratings are at 19%!
This is simple and requires no further explanation, and to reject this is to reject reality: the “phony soldiers” to which Limbaugh referred are people like Jesse Macbeth, Micah Wright, Scott Beauchamp, the perps in Operation Stolen Valor, and others who are not only against the war (nothing wrong with that), but who are against the war and totally fabricate credentials and events that simply are not true and never happened. Is Reid defending Macbeth and the other shameful liars, or is he just willfully disregarding facts and reality the way that the left always does? You tell me.
Besides, is there anything more disingenuous for a leftist like Reid to pretend to care about the troops? Reid says that they’ve already lost the war, and he defends Abscam Jack Murtha who has slandered our troops and branded them as “cold-blooded killers” (and Abscam Jack is currently being sued for such defamation). Reid has done everything within his power to secure defeat so as to gain political power. And Reid has the temerity to pretend to care about the soldiers? Un-freakin’-believable.
All the problems this country has and Harry Reid is wasting our time introducing a bill in the United States Senate to condemn Rush Limbaugh? A friend told me about this, but I didn’t believe her. I had to go read the news to convince myself.
What’s the deal, Reid? Is 11% approval not low enough?
I hate to tell you this, “Senator”, but you’ve just made the biggest tactical mistake of your life. You didn’t think this one through as to what you would do if Rush called you out (and he did in record time). Now what? Rush Limbaugh just told you to be a man, step up and say it to his face. You’ve been nationally challenged by a man you hate. Whatcha’ gonna do, there Harry?
I’ll tell you what. You aren’t going to do anything. You’ll mumble some excuse about not walking into such an unfair situation or some such nonsense…but you’ve been called out, and you don’t have the b***s to answer out from behind your Senate microphone.

Just when I thought the libs couldn’t sink any lower…
This kind of senseless crap is exactly what we get to look forward to if Shrillary gets to be Prez…
GOD HELP US!

TTH and KG you’re both right! Rush has already put his show’s transcripts out there for all the media to see IF they have the nerve to reveal the truth, which I’m sure they won’t. I’m hoping some Republican with enough b*lls will take a copy of the transcript to the senate floor and READ it in front of Dirty Harry! But I’ve been disappointed before.

Both. Douchebag. (Reid.)
p.s. Do I want to really know what Chicken squeeze is?

Way back, people with mental deficiencies were classified in three ways: The lowest was Idiot, next was Imbecile and then Moron. Harry Reid makes Imbeciles and Morons look like rocket scientists..

Honestly, if these dipsticks in this Congress passed a bill condemning me for something I wrote on my blog or something, I’d consider it a badge of honor.

It isnt the fact this idiot is condeming Rush that is the problem, he has his right to an opinion, however Fd up it is. The problem is that he is going to waste 99 other elected officials time ( that should be better spent) of who knows how many hours debating and pushing it thru a committee that should be doing something else besides validating his worthless opinion.

Progressives believe there is no such thing as absolute truth so it is safe to assume that they are liars!

IF they have the nerve to reveal the truth
tnjack – TRUTH has never mattered to the liberals.
I’m hoping some Republican with enough b*lls…
Is there such a thing anymore?
I think this whole sham has much more to do with the Dems’ efforts to silence Conservative talk radio, than it does their phony outrage and phony support of the troops. This is just the beginning…
