Tell Rush Limbaugh to STFU!

[vince]

SCsoccermom what is "hedious" please?
Were you trying to spell hideous?
C.B.:saevil:

Come on C.B... That's not fair. Typos and such are allowed. The only time to call someone out for that is when they have already been acting like a grammer nazi.

15 hours after asking for examples, and still not a single example of Jon Stewart, Keith Olberman, Rachel Maddow, Oprah Winfrey, Alec Baldwin, Bill Maher, Patton Oswald, Perez Hilton or Goldie Hawn making comments more ignorant and inflammatory than Rush. Perhaps they're too busy going through transcripts?

I'll check back in the morning. :biggrin:

I suppose the research is still on-going?

Back to the topic of this thread: Tell Rush Limbaugh to STFU

Everyone put down their bicker weapons and consider the following:

The easiest way to tell Rush (Larouche) Limbaugh to stuff it is to quit buying any products he advertises on his radio program. I've never tried Icy/Hot, and most likely never will. But if they still advertise with the Lush Rush, just write the makers of Icy/Hot a simple letter that you cannot purchase products from sponsors who spend advertising dollars with Rush (the drug addict) Limbaugh. Something that really works, just letting an advertiser know (by US Mail) that you now have a better incentive for buying "generic" products; especially in this economy.

Kelloggs and Post cereals especially don't like hearing you're so easily persuaded to buy "generic." If they happen to advertise on Rush or FOX Not News, let the advertisers know how their support of such bombastic assholes has turned you off from ever buying their products. And be sure to include your full name and address. The worst that can happen is you'll probably receive coupons good for free boxes or samples of their products. But this sort of "grass roots" protest really spooks advertisers when they begin to receive between 20 to 30 letters a week from moms and pops all over the country that "Burma Shave is no longer used by our family because your choice of programs you advertise Burma Shave offends us." And if you can weave in anything about 'Mericuhn Values into your short letter you've just added extra kick. Uh, any LSPG-er old enough to remember Burma Shave?

And if you think I'm joking, you obviously haven't heard the serious hubbub regarding Glen Beck's return to Fox Not Network News this week after his short vacation. At last count he's lost 12 major advertisers because moms and pops have written his sponsors and complained that they will not by products from advertisers who support mouth offs such as Beck who claim Obama is a racist. That's 12 major advertisers and counting.

Seriously, it only takes between 20 and 30 letters a week to an advertiser to get their attention. The general advertising formula used by all predicts that if 20 to 30 people actually had the energy to write and complain, there are probably 20 to 30 thousand who feel the same way.

"I think the main issue here is civility. The republican party seems to be lacking it recently".....................oh the memory is short i remember the pissin and moanin the pubies that went on every time w. was complemented on one of his feats of intelligence. It's just our turn to be shocked and appalled......lol

 

[mikeyh9in]

All of Rush's name calling just shows one thing... his lack of intelligence.

If he can not clearly articulate his disagreement of Obama or his policy, he simply calls him a Nazi.

Stupidity and ignorance seem to gravitate toward him. The more asinine and ridiculous he is, the more the ignorant follow.

How did a drug addict become the voice of the Republican party anyway?

I suppose the research is still on-going?

You'd think with such a bold claim being made, worded in such a way to make anyone who wouldn't believe them to be extremely uninformed, they would have found something by now. Perhaps the "liberal media" managed to go to every website on the internets and get these video and literary transcripts removed?

Two weeks and counting... and still not a single example of Jon Stewart, Keith Olberman, Rachel Maddow, Oprah Winfrey, Alec Baldwin, Bill Maher, Patton Oswald, Perez Hilton or Goldie Hawn making comments more ignorant and inflammatory than Rush. Seriously, I would love to see this. Anyone with some evidence? Like Katt Williams always says, "Don't worry, I'll wait..." :biggrin1:

I LOVE Katt Williams!
He may be vulgar but he tells it like it is. :yup:

Approximately 85% of the media in the United States is Liberal while 15% is Conservative.

However there are currently 4 well-funded left-wing media research groups that pour over every statement made by the 15% cataloging, data mining and procuring for the rest of the media to disseminate.

There is one small media organization that looks into the liberal bias but is dwarfed in comparison by the powerful and extremely well funded groups on the left.

Do you really think your challenge is that great????????????

In reality it would be better if you stopped licking the boots of your leaders and did a little research on your own.

Stop swallowing the kool-aid and try to become an independent like I am.

You will find that throwing off your dogmatic and ignorant beliefs is liberating.

Cheers and good luck to you.

Actually, it wasn't his challenge and martymart76 made the claim. I merely asked for an example. Saying that "liberals" own 85% of the media is not a valid excuse, since "conservatives" with their 15% seem to make a LOT of noise. Their influence on the Health Care Debate is a clear example. And yes, I'm sure there's plenty of people on the left that says some ignorant, inflammatory stuff. But neither myself or sargon20 is making a claim on a message board and not backing it up. Because let's be honest... if we did that, people would be all over our backs too.

Even independents have been known to have a taste of the Kool-Aid. When it comes to taking cheap, political shots, nobody is immune. I like Grape... what's your flavor of the month?

Oh, and George Carlin is a comic genius.

Yes, of course! He was sheer comic genius.:tongue:

Percentages according to who? Links please. Defend your statistics. And their context.

Cheers and good luck to you.

And you.

Where do these people come from? This board is being overrun by them lately. At least they stick to the political threads... mostly.

Maybe we should all use the ultra-conservative playbook and invent our own stats and just say whatever we want, no matter how insulting or degrading it is.

 

[deleted15807]

Fascinating indeed. I said this:

and got that:

Was that just waiting to burst out today? Couldn't hold it back? Just waiting for an excuse...a trigger?

You merely believe you are an independent.

George Carlin was one of the best comedians we've ever had. He spoke up and got people to think about how the pols and media were trying to hoodwink us and he did it in a humorous way which made us think about what was going on. A genius, an absolute genius!


As to Limbaugh-he is essentially just one big joke, not to ever be taken seriously.

Unfortunately for America, nearly 14 million people do take him seriously.

 

[upstategirlny]

I love Rush!

 

[Northland]

Unfortunatfely for America, nearly 14 million people do take him seriously.

Fortunately there are millions more who don't. Hopefully that number (those who laugh at him) is increasing daily.

I love Rush!

Well, I must admit he does have a fuckable mouth.

 

[B_VinylBoy]

That's true... but I think more people should be vocal about it. Too many times we tend to laugh off these people as crazy, instead of doing the fact checks, side by side comparison and illustrating as to why Lumbaugh should be laughed at.

Well, I must admit he does have a fuckable mouth.

I can think of many things to shove down Limbaugh's mouth, but a cock is certainly not one of them. :biggrin1:

 

[Pendlum]

I guess I'm one of the only people who doesn't equate wanting someone to shut the fuck up with GAG THEM SO THEY CAN'T SPEAK AND HINDER THEIR RIGHTS HUR HUR!!!!11one1. I want Limbaugh to shut the fuck up because he says stupid shit, not because I think he doesn't have the right to express those stupid ideas.

Also, people need to stop using the kool-aide phrase, you are ruining my child hood memories. Use beer or something. I don't drink it and it seems to fit more. People love it, and it makes you stupid, how is that not perfect for what you are trying to convey?

I want my sugary drink back! D:
