Both sides are going crazy.
That lion was killed for his head. To me, that’s an abomination.
For Rush to rationalize the killing because of what the other lion is going to do.. or the social fabric of prides, is just obfuscation.
WE HAVE SELF AWARENESS. And KNOW BETTER THAN LIONS. We are the stewards, the referees on the planet. Why, oh, why do we do this to ourselves? I don’t believe for a moment Rush is that callous. My instincts tell me he’s a softy.
But he had to do what he had to do. So many men feel that calling when a subject like this comes up. They deny their humanity — their knee jerk horror, in favor of a reasoned response that will garner a few “Hear Hear”s through the cigar smoke.
shame rush... shame on you
He said nothing of the sort. He is commenting on the way the news media is covering it.
Thanks for your concern, n00b.
when is wenn a weenie?
Hard to say. The weenie just joined a week ago.
The killing of this poor lion by this fool was grotesque, and I’m not trying to justify it in any way. This idiot is a butcher, not a huntsman or a sportsman. The outrage is deserved.
But what is almost equally idiotic - and I think this is the point that Rush was making - is that the drive-by media is so despicable and biased that they can’t condemn this moron for his actions alone; they are compelled to bring politics into it in a childish way and attempt thereby to impugn Romney and other Republicans by the flimsiest of associations.
Why did The Hill spend time researching and publishing the fact that this guy donated to Romney other than an utterly transparent attempt to paint all Republicans (like the evil Koch Brothers!) with the brush of savagery and what amounts to animal cruelty? You, of course, know the answer - no slur or innuendo is so low that the left will not attempt to exploit it.
That is the point that I was trying to make with my, admittedly, somewhat elliptical comments.
You have really no idea what Rush said, do you, NOOB!!
