    but it... some radio host last night was ing about how a PGA tour announcer was being reprimanded for saying ... this...

    CBS Sports golf announcer David Feherty wrote that U.S. soldiers would like to kill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. "From my own experience visiting the troops in the Middle East, I can tell you this, though: despite how the conflict has been portrayed by our glorious media, if you gave any U.S. soldier a gun with two bullets in it, and he found himself in an elevator with Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Osama bin Laden, there's a good chance that Nancy Pelosi would get shot twice, and Harry Reid and bin Laden would be strangled to death," he wrote.

    which to some is in pretty bad taste and to some pretty funny.... just like to some what wanda sykes said was offending and to others it was pretty funny....and then goes on to berate wanda sykes for saying his kidneys fail... which has a link to the prescription drug scandal he was involved in.

    my point is, if youre going to talk about somebody for saying political jokes that are in poor taste, don't be a partisan little about it.
    He apologized.

    She did but it isn't like Rush hasn't done it many times before. Rush is a hater, pure and simple.
    Are we all suppose to love or be indifferent to people?

    I hate some people too! It's natural!

    Am I to assume you have no hatred towards anyone?

    Now THAT'S funny. Although, in his defense, Feherty didn't say he WISHED this would happen. By the way, why would soldiers want to take out Pelosi and Reid? Everyone knows the Dems care more about the military than anyone.

    Why doesn't Rush say exactly what he means? Since when has a hate-media speaker been shy or terse?

    "He wants Obama to fail" ... to do what?

    And what does Rush want done to replace Obama's hoped-for failure?

    Wanda Sikes has the most annoying voice in the world. Well, maybe 2nd, right after Gilbert Gottfried.
    Her voice doesn't bother me as much as Fran Dreschers, but it definitely is up there with those top dogs of annoying voices.

    So are you saying that when people take comments out of context is a bad thing? Are you against that?
    They're not taking it out of context, they're either completely missing the point of the comment or are being intentionally dense so they can go off on some hysterical rant and, once again, get all the useful idiots on the left to breathlessly rant some new slogan. "Bush lied and people died" is so last administration.

    The left needed something new, and "Rush wants Obama to fail." Sounded good them, I guess.

    If someone is doing something you believe will bring considerable harm to an ins ution you revere and love, wouldn't you want that someone to fail?

    I want Obama to fail too.

    Hey Kori, if you're reading this, please change the blurb under my name to, "I want him to fail."

    You obviously only listen to the lefts propaganda, and not even us who understand her.

    He wants president Obama to fail to get his policies implemented.

    Reason: His policies will hurt this nation, not help it!

    If president Obama succeeds, America fails! Plain and simple!

    Only a re doesn't understand the concept.

    June 24, 2008: Limbaugh stated: "I will guaran-damn-tee you there will not be a terrorist attack before the election. And you know why there won't be one? Because they want Obama elected." He later falsely claimed, "Hamas has endorsed Obama. Hamas has endorsed Obama." Limbaugh also asserted that "every time I hear [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad speak, every time I hear a tape from [Al Qaeda leader] Ayman al-Zawahiri or a so-called dispatch from bin Laden, whenever I hear from any of these Middle East Al Qaeda terrorists, I think I'm hearing Democrat [sic] Party talking points."

    April 15, 2008: Limbaugh asserted: "[T]he Islamofascists are actually campaigning for the election of Democrats. Islamofascists from Ahmadinejad to al-Zawahiri ... Osama bin Laden, whoever, are constantly issuing Democrat talking points."

    February 29, 2008: On Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, guest host Laura Ingraham interviewed Limbaugh, who said, referring to a photograph of then-Sen. Obama dressed in traditional Somali clothing that was posted on the Drudge Report, that Obama "look[ed] like Ayman [al-]Zawahiri."

    September 20, 2007: Limbaugh claimed that Obama and bin Laden were "on the same page" with regard to the deteriorating situation in Pakistan. While discussing a newly released audiotape reported to be from bin Laden in which he calls for Pakistanis to overthrow then-President Pervez Musharraf, Limbaugh asserted: "Well, we've got another tape from -- I get these guys confused -- Osama bin Laden. Another tape says he's going to invade Pakistan and declare war on Pakistan and Musharraf, which, ladies and gentlemen, puts him on the same page with a Democrat presidential candidate -- that would be Barack 'Uss-Obama.' "

    July 2007: For several days in July 2007, a graphic on the front page of Limbaugh's website depicted a screen shot of C-SPAN's Washington Journal doctored to show bin Laden appearing as a guest identified as "Mr. Osama bin Laden, D-Afghanistan."

    October 19, 2006: Limbaugh declared that the recent surge in insurgent violence in Iraq indicated that "terrorists around the world, particularly those in Iraq, are voting Democrat today." Limbaugh maintained that "the terrorists, the Islamofascists, the jihadists" are the "key voters in this year's election," and that "[t]hey are trying to create as much havoc as possible; raise the level of violence in order to affect the midterm elections." He added: "What could be the best outcome for [the terrorists]? Cut and run, right? Whose strategy -- whose policy amounts to cut and run? Democrats."

    August 21, 2006: Limbaugh stated that even though then-President Bush pledged he would purportedly "never" criticize the patriotism of his political opponents, Limbaugh would continue to "challenge the patriotism of people who disagree" with Bush and his plan for Iraq "because the people that disagree with him want to lose." Limbaugh added: "It's about time we do challenge their patriotism. The far-left fringe in this country is actively seeking our defeat. A wacko judge in Michigan [presumably a reference to U.S. District Court Judge Anna Diggs Taylor, who had recently ruled that the Bush administration's warrantless domestic surveillance program was uncons utional]: actively seeking our defeat. Jimmy Carter: actively seeking our defeat. Bill Clinton, John Kerry, and Al Gore may as well be seeking our defeat. So should [then-Connecticut Democratic Senate candidate] Ned Lamont [whose name Limbaugh pronounced like 'lament']."

    June 27, 2006: Responding to a June 23, 2006, New York Times article describing a secret Bush administration program designed to monitor international financial transactions, Limbaugh asserted: "I think 80 percent of their subscribers have to be jihadists. If you look at The New York Times and the kind of stories they're leaking and running and the information they're getting, it's clear that they're trying to help the terrorists. They're trying to help the jihadists."

    April 26, 2006: Limbaugh remarked that a new videotape released by al-Zarqawi "is an excellent opportunity to remind all of you that it sounds just like the DNC [Democratic National Committee] is writing his scripts now." Limbaugh also claimed that Zarqawi "sounds like Democrats," including "Howard Dean, Al Gore, Jimmy Carter, Harry Reid, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry ... Carl Levin, Nancy Pelosi."

    April 11, 2006: Limbaugh accused the Democratic Party of using the immigration debate as a "vehicle" to gain voters, proclaiming: "[I]f you're Al Qaeda, come on in over the southern border! The Democrats will take your votes as well!"

    April 8, 2004: Limbaugh stated: "Senator Kennedy, a simple question. Does it please you to learn who your friends are? Does it excite you, Senator Kennedy, to learn that the militant, firebrand, murderer of American civilians and military personnel is on your side, Senator Kennedy? Does it encourage you? Does it invigorate you? Does it inspire you, Senator Kennedy, to know that a murdering Al Qaeda-related terrorist has taken up your argument for use against his enemy? How does that make you feel, Senator Kennedy? Does it embarrass you? Because it should. Or does it probably excite you and think you're making headway now. You've got the enemy aligned with you."

    Poor old Hush... I can't believe any of you defend this piece of trash..

    I almost feel bad for the disservice I do to trash when I compare them to Hushy..

    I have not heard one Hush defender slam Hannity or any other conservative commentator for making a living on taking quotes out of context... That's why your defense is phony..

    White House spokesman Robert Gibbs has expressed disapproval at the joke, insisting Sykes should not have made light of the tragedy.

    I wonder if Obama will say he is sorry for laughing?

    GOPers kowtowing to Rush is only natural; expecting Obama to do it is unrealistic.

    Obama's Top Advisor Suggests First Family Name Dog "Miss California"



    When David Axelrod was asked if he had weighed in on the Obama family's dog choice, he answered, "I was only called in for the final three, and one was Miss California." Axelrod appeared on NPR's "Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me" show.

    I'm not outraged. I just think it demonstrates the character of those in the White House.

    I know you're not outraged, you're just trying to help with the manufacturing.

    Good boy!
