Alec Baldwin calls Rush Limbaugh “uneducated, marginally talented, overbearing”

(trashes republicans and evangelicals too)

EXCERPT:

When Alec Baldwin’s leading man career went down the tubes, he turned to television comedy with some success. Now he’s turned to writing political satire. At least we think it was satire.

How else can you explain the article Baldwin wrote the Huffington Post titled, “Hoping the GOP Gets Its Act Together” in which he says, “Rush Limbaugh is an uneducated, marginally talented, overbearing, recovering drug addict who was, at least according to Wikipedia, ineligible for the draft because he had cysts on his ass.”

“Marginally talented”?

I bet you would rethink that judgment after debating Mr. Limbaugh sans notes or teleprompters, Alec.

I was going to see “Pearl Harbor”, but when I read that Baldwin was cast as Jimmy Doolittle, I just laughed.

“He called Hanity a “construction worker”!”

Given the present talent level in Hollywood, most actors could be replaced by construction workers.

Alec gets work because he is the quintessential liberal suck-up.

Yes, he wanted Hyde dead. He was jumping up and down on television demanding that Hyde and his entire family be stoned to death.

Marginally talented? The man has various Marconi awards, is recognized as a pioneering radio voice, has the largest audience in the business, makes tens of millions, is a target of presidents and congresses.

Alec Baldwin is on a marginally rated TV show, though.

Alec...relax. Laugh at yourself. And if you can’t laugh at yourself, laugh at the Big Guy...laughing at you.

______________________________

My thought on this is that Rush will ignore AB as the marginal leftist he is. And if he does in fact mention AB I bet its when AB attempted talk radio. The guy couldn’t get an auidence and ended up calling his mother to get someone to talk to.

And there was outrage by MSM, certainly nothing like MSM’s reaction to Ann Coulter’s flip comment regarding the cad John Edwards.

Alec Baldwin’s career is an abjest failure in addition to being the butt of many jokes; he has sunk from A-list actor to hawking internet services on TV.

Rush is a thousand times more successful, a thousand times more respected, a thousand times more intelligent, and a hundred thousand times wealthier than Baldwin will ever be.

A Socialist co-worker was saying the same thing the other day, getting his talking points from listening to Air America on his drive in as usual. He started ranting about how Rush Limbaugh, a guy who never went to college, and never accomplished anything in his life, wants to debate Obana.

If winning in 1992, 1995, 2000 and 2005 the Marconi Radio Award, is not accomplishing anything...

If signing a 31 Million a year contract is not accomplishing anything...

If signing a contract extension through 2016 that is worth over $400 million, breaking records for any broadcast medium — television or radio is not accomplishing anything.....

If having the most-listened-to radio show in the United States, with over 14 million listeners a week not accomplishing anything.... Oprah, Dr. Phil, The View, they are in the 4 millions.

If having your first 2 books you ever wrote both become number one on the New York Times Best Seller list is not accomplish anything.

If doing more for charity that 50 Hollywood moguls is not doing anything, ........then, then I don't want to accomplish anything either.

Didn't Alec Baldwin wish Rep. Hyde and his family dead? It was during the late 1990s.

Exact quote: "If we were in another country, we would stone Henry Hyde to death and we would go to their homes and kill their wives and their children. We would kill their families, for what they're doing to this country."
- 12 Dec 1998, Alec Baldwin on The Conan O'Brien Show

What a lowlife. Why does anyone care what Baldwin thinks? He’s a waste of organic matter.
