Why, no, it's a group of private citizens, Pabster.

The difference here is that the Congress was driven to action based on public outcry. Reid took his orders from MoveOn and even members of the TV based press called him out on it.. showing that he was clearly taking the speech deemed "offensive" out of context.

The original speech Reid complained about what "phony soldiers" in the same show as talk about good old phony Jesse - former hero of the left and yet another liar ....

To support Congressmen condemning any individual for expressing his view is amazing... MoveOn is a political action group, Rush is a talk show host who does wonders in lambasting both the Left and Right. Hell this whole crap story actually drove me to listen to a podcast of him (he isn't on my list of people I listen too - Clarke Howard is on the same time and I like Clarke). I didn't find anything of like that Media Matters (aka Hillary's PAC) claimed.

Face it, Reid was marching to the tune of redirecting the controversy of a truly offensive printed ad taken out by a political fringe group who got a discount from the so called unbiased press (a discount only revoked once it became public). Worse, we have the DO-NOTHING DEMOCRAT Congress wasting two days decrying the Patriotism of a fellow American....

If they would bother to govern instead of investigate and attack they might earn some points. I guess there weren't any religious radicals to burn out of house and home currently for them to go after

A group of "private citizens" doesn't organize as a 501(c)4 ...

Or would you consider yourself tax exempt?

Can you provide a quote to back up that claim?

No he can't. Like I pointed out earlier, this is the extension of the original smear. They saw their original smear wasn't getting traction(because it had no truth) so they are attempting to twist something else he said. Pretty sad.... yet so predictable from the BDS sufferers.


I posted the quote hours before you posted this nonsense. Are you really this slow? That's an exact quote from Limbaugh.

You, pabster, and shivy don't really read anything do you ?

Uhh - no. I posted it last night at 8:10pm CST and your post was 11pm ish.


Odd how my post is about 6 posts before yours though. Do you read threads backwards?

Shiv, public outcry my ass, that was purely manufactured outrage by the right wing noise machine.

I would disagree. Rush has had a proven track record of supporting our Armed Forces for decades, unlike the quacks at MoveOn who have a proven track record of denigrating them and anyone who dares to go against their extremist agenda. I believe the "outrage" is genuine indeed.

I don't care what you "believe" there was no public outrage. NO regular person cared about it. And what is rush's track record ?

I don't understand you, you're like a three year old that just repeats the last thing you heard. You, shiv, cad, and others are like the stepford domestic partners.

Wrong. Read my post at 8:10 PM on 10/4 CST (before your 11:45pm 10/4 and ~2am 10/5 post). Do you even read threads?

Actually, that's *exactly* who organizes as a 501(c)4.

The fact they did is irrelevant to the fact that it is a group of private citizens exercising their right to political speech.

If anything, it's Rush who is less the 'private citizen' exercising private speech; while technically that's accurate, he's the self-admitted 'entertainer' putting on a show.

Moveon is private people banding for political speech, period.

I see they are trying to continue with the smear by now trying to claim he called a vet a suicide bomber. :laugh: Sounds like they are getting really desperate now that their first smear was shown as a fraud.

That is BEFORE your post. And then you tried to post something about it and were then asked by PJ to provide the quote where he said what you claimed. What you posted is not what you claim because it is just another attempted smear by MM. A smear you just believed like a good little MM follower.

Where is the exact quote where he calls(compares) someone a(to) "suicide bomber"?

That is exactly what limbaugh said.



That was posted before your post. Also, stop with the "smear" line, it's just sad at this point. Why do you deny or allege something without knowing the facts first? You still apparently did not read this because you're still claiming I never quoted what he said. Not to mention I provided a link to an article from thinkprogress laying out the entire thing.

You're like a suicide bomber that pressed the detonator too early

I quoted my post from YESTERDAY, which was BEFORE your post (your post was 2:07AM 10/05 - mine was 8:10PM 10/04 - CST). I addressed this new attempted smear by MM. You have yet to show where he called/compared a soldier to a suicide bomber. The reason you haven't is because it's nothing but another smear made up by MM and the rest of the rabid left.
Since you think you have posted where the "suicide bomber" part is - please bold it...if you can. There is NOTHING in your post(even his quote) which suggests he did such a thing except claims by you and MM. His quote has nothing to do with suicide bombers at all but I suppose in the world of a rabid leftist(where MM lives) they somehow think it does. :laugh:

Are you seriously this slow? LMFAO I guess you can't figure out what that means.

As I've said before, If A = B and B = C, Conservatives will deny A = C.

Olbermann had a member of votevets.org on last night and he recited excerpts from letters written by Rush defenders. They were being called, inter alia, traitors and pieces of shyt. If it were written in crayon i'd suspect shivyeta did it But it goes to show how tenuous the right wing respect for the military really is. The votevet thinks, and I agree, that the reason soldiers are being discouraged from supporting a pullout from iraq is that the republican party fears a military and military family retreat.

Uh, how do you get "suicide bomber" out of that? What he said is correct. They put this vet out there spouting their smear(attaching it to his belt) and since they put this ad out there they hoped to reach as many people as possible with the smear. It's how ads work. You and your types are being intellectually dishonest by trying to continue the smear, and then trying to twist yet another statement into "sucide bombers" that had NOTHING to do with suicide bombers.

Just when you though the BDS left couldn't stoop any lower - they do. I guess we shouldn't be surprised though - it's part of the disease. It'd be hilarious if it weren't so sad.

But there is one truth many will agree on: Stoneburner = dumb

Judging from your posts in this thread you're as propagandized as a Rush fanatic. Stop beating off to those Leftwing blogs and start thinking for yourself.

Dear jeebus, we have some utter fools here. You people honestly don't realize that is a comparison to a suicide bomber? You're joking right? Let's see

1. Strapping lies to belt = strapping bomb
2. Sending him out = sending him out
3. walk into as many people as he can walk into = exactly what suicide bombers do.

So where are you guys getting lost here? CAD, you've lost the credibility you never had with this latest one... Apparently you people never heard of metaphors and analogies. Let's say I said, "CAD puts on his brown shirt, goosesteps to his computers, and types his posts with his left hand while his right hand is raised at an awkard angle in salute" You people would have no idea what that means ? NO wonder you guys love bush, compared to you he's Bertrand Russell. (No he's not really Bertrand Russell)

How do you NOT get "suicide bomber" out of Limbaugh's analogy? Been on this planet long? :roll:

One truth most people with half a brain can understand is that, if you can't acknowledge Limbaugh's analogy to a suicide bomber, it is you who is functionally illiterate, mentally deficient or intentionally lying.

Which is it?

Since when DON'T they simply walk into crowded areas, such as busses, cafes and shopping areas to kill as many people as possible?

Homicide Bomber Kills 26, Injures 22 in Shiite-Packed Cafe

BAGHDAD, Iraq ? A suicide bomber detonated explosives Sunday inside a cafe packed with Shiites in northern Iraq, killing 26 people and injuring 22, an Iraqi general said. Gunmen seized a top Oil Ministry official in the second major kidnapping in as many days.

Suicide bomber kills 30 in Iraq cafe

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- At least 30 Iraqis were killed Wednesday when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive vest at a popular cafe in the town of Balad Ruz, a police official said.

The explosion ripped through a busy marketplace and wounded another 40 Iraqis, said Gen. William Caldwell, a U.S. military spokesman.

Suicide Bomber Detonates Himself in Internet Cafe

A Moroccan man, who allegedly planned to attack landmarks in Casablanca, blew himself up in an Internet cafe on March 11, 2007.

Abdelfattah Raydi, 23, killed himself and wounded four people when he detonated an explosive belt at the cafe in Sidi Moumen.

Police: Bomber kills 3 in Tel Aviv

TEL AVIV, Israel (CNN) -- A suicide bomber killed at least three people and wounded 35 others when he detonated himself in an open-air market Monday in Tel Aviv, Israeli police and ambulance services said.

Suicide Bomber Hits Israel Market

JERUSALEM ?? A suicide bomber detonated his explosives Sunday in a fruit and vegetable market in the coastal city of Netanya wounding at least 28 people, Israeli officials said. Israel television said at least one person was killed.

Suicide Bomber Blows Up Crowded Bus in Baghdad

A suicide bomber has killed at least 30 people and wounded nearly 20 others on a bus in Baghdad. The bus was crowded with people, traveling to the mostly Shi'ite city, Nasiriyah, southeast of Baghdad.

The bus was about to depart the al-Nahda station in the east Baghdad town of Rusafa, early Thursday, when the attack occurred.

Witnesses told police that they believe a suicide bomber, wearing an explosive belt, climbed onto the bus minutes before the explosion.

Sadly, it wouldn't take long to find hundreds, if not thousands of similar links spanning the past decade and more. If you still think you can deny Limbaugh's intended meaning, at least you can use your gluteal cheeks for earmuffs. :laugh:

You know what's hilarious? Watching the rabid left constantly attack him by distorting what he says. I don't listen to the guy and don't care what he says but these smears the left constantly tries to "get him" with are hilarious. I guess BDS does that to you.

The fact that the left-wing extremists like yourself have to resort to the old "Oxy" argument each and every time pretty much sums it all up. Partisan hacks and nothing more. :thumbsdown: :| :thumbsdown:

I think its funny how the tone of this thread changed once the actual transcript was posted.

And yet, some are STILL saying a man on radio since his lawyer daddy got him his first job, a man who has written how many books, a man who basically talks for a living, DIDN`T REALIZE HOW HIS WORDS WOULD BE TAKEN?

Wow, just frikken wow.

It's only ironic to you because you believe lies about the left - and the right for that matter.

What's more ironic - and hypocritical - is watching the 'support the troops' chanters defend Rush when he calls the many who oppose the war 'phony troops'.

And it's even *more* ironic and hypocritical for those who tried to Kerry had insulted the troops by twisting what he said now defend Rush.

I do think this has gotten too much attention, that it just sort of happened and now he's saying he doesn't mean that. He says enough garbage not to need this incident.
