Describing the hate-mongers

A wonderful description of the right-wing radio and TV talk show hosts. I don't know the author, Hal Crowther, but it seems as if he is spot on.

The video Rush Limbaugh wants censored...

Rush Limbaugh's 53 Smears Against Sandra Fluke from Daily Kos on Vimeo.

From Daily Kos:
Remember Sandra Fluke? She's the law student who sent Rush Limbaugh into a multi-day rage for daring to speak out on behalf a friend who needed access to contraceptives for non-reproductive medical reasons. As a result, Limbaugh decided she was a promiscuous slut and prostitute who needed to videotape herself having sex for Limbaugh's own sexual gratification.

Overall, Limbaugh attacked Fluke an astonishing 53 times over three days. We took snippets of each of those attacks and spliced them together for the world to see, then uploaded it to YouTube.

Today, we got notice from YouTube that the clip had been pulled for copyright violation:

Limbaugh, like most Republicans, just makes shit up

Limbaugh: "I, Me, My... 3 of the most used words in President Obama's media appearance". O RLY?

Political Ad: Limbaugh Wants Us To Fail

Obama is now the President of the United States. Hoping that he fails is tantamount to treason.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't believe him. Remember, at best he's a recovering drug addict and at worst - he's still a drug addict. Besides which, this is America (the world's melting pot - it's what makes us so great), not a third world poverty-stricken nation.

Conservatives are Hypocrites (But I Repeat Myself)

The Republicans are flaming hypocrites - just look up the word hypocrite in the dictionary - well, you get the idea...

On September 20, 72 Senators voted for the highly politicized, “bait and switch” resolution that condemned a newspaper ad by MoveOn.org. The amendment, offered by Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), expressly stated that the Senate would condemn “any effort to attack the honor and integrity” of “all members of the United States Armed Forces“

...

On his radio show yesterday, right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh attacked the “honor and integrity” of some members of the Armed Forces. Limbaugh attacked troops who hold a different viewpoint than his own as “phony soldiers.” Iraq war vet Jon Soltz writes that Limbaugh’s comments are directed at “the majority of troops on the ground in Iraq” because they “do not back the President’s failed policy.”

For all the Senators who rushed to make political hay over an empty resolution, the spotlight is on them. Will they now enforce their “sense of the Senate” and condemn Rush Limbaugh?

From Think Progress

Turn-about Is Not Fair Play

Summary: Rush Limbaugh has called the MoveOn.org "General Petraeus or General Betray Us?" advertisement "contemptible" and "indecent," but months earlier, on his radio show, he told his audience that he had a new name for Senator Chuck Hagel: "Senator Betrayus." Though Limbaugh has taken exception to accusations that he has attacked the patriotism of his political opponents, the "Senator Betrayus" remark is one of several instances in which Limbaugh has done so.
