Blowing smoke out of his mouth as Michael Steele blows smoke up his ass.
Jeez.
I should attend a wacky neocon gathering just to see what it's like. I imagine very disturbing. Will there be cocktail hours?
"What do you drink, sir? Type A or Type AB?"
I'm guessing that at the end of the night, these Bible-thumping, Boeing-humping folks all gather in one room and circle-jerk to clips of Shock and Awe. Either that or their hero President Reagan, who presumably survived Hinckley's gunshot because it wasn't laced in Kryptonite.
Anyway, I didn't -- or rather couldn't -- watch Limbaugh's speech in its entirety. He threw a lot of red meat to the wingnuts, and no doubt had a lot of red meat himself later in the night. He mentioned how "Ronald Reagan used to speak of a shining city on a hill" and how our current president "portrays America as a soup kitchen in some dark night in a corner of America that's very obscure."
Um, I'm sorry, Rush, but are you high? Um, scratch that.
Obama's oratory about America is so inflated with love that it's borderline nauseating. His rhetoric makes diabetics slip into comas. When waitresses ask customers how they want their coffee, they reply, "Oh, two creams and a couple sentences from Obama's speeches." I don't even think Obama talks about Michelle Obama as nicely as he talks about the good ol' US of A. If there's one thing I can say about this guy, it's that he's optimistic. When he talks about hope and how we're the ones we've been waiting for, I'm convinced that he actually believes that bullshit!
Limbaugh also claimed that Obama "wants people in fear, angst and crisis, fearing the worst each and every day." What, did he raise the Terror Level Alert to Orange when his approval ratings dropped or something? Didn't Bush essentially say while campaigning for endangered congressional Republicans in 2006 that the terrorists would win as a result of a Democratic takeover? The bellicose Limbaugh said that, "President Obama is so busy trying to foment and create anger in a created atmosphere of crisis" and that "he is so busy fueling the emotions of class envy that he’s forgotten it’s not his money that he’s spending."
By the way, Rush -- this "created atmosphere of crisis"? Yeah, it was your boy W's administration along with the oh so fiscally responsible Republican-held Congress which, for the most part, created this atmosphere. Borrowing money to pay for tax cuts for millionaires and to fund two wars in the Middle East? Didn't exactly have the results you expected, eh? This coming from guys who called on everybody to sacrifice, but wouldn't even raise taxes to at least pay for soldiers' benefits. Am I wrong on that? If so, let me know and I'll retract it.
And better Obama fuel emotions like, say, homophobia. I know gay marriage is supposed to have apocalyptic consequences, Mr. Limbaugh, but I just don't believe that guys tying the knot in Massachusetts bears any responsibility for the crappy state of our economy and the results from our foreign policy. And by the way, with all this talk about the sanctity of marriage: which one of your three marriages had the most sanctity?
Limbaugh adds that "liberalism is not just a psychosis or a psychology, not an ideology. It's so much about feelings, and the predominant feeling that liberalism is about is about feeling good about themselves and they do that by telling themselves they have all this compassion."
Are you kidding me?
Liberalism is so much about feelings?
This from the party which brings up amendments on flag burning around election season? Yeah, that's not a issue about feelings. We all know the horrors of flag burning and how many lives it has destroyed. I asked an American flag what it thought about members of its community being burned. But it didn't comment because, well, it's a fucking flag.
Anyway, my opinion on Limbaugh can best be summed up in a quote from Jeff Goldblum's character in JURASSIC PARK: "That is one big pile of shit."
Speaking of JURASSIC PARK, it has The Greatest Film Score Ever. In my humble opinion.
