Why does Rush Limbaugh....

When he mentions Jesse Jackson, he never used the name : "Jesse Jackson", but almost always says -- The Reverend Jackson, in a very strange tone, as if trying to sound very respectful ( I can't quite describe it. Experienced listeners will understand ).

It's not respect. He's mocking him. Jackson is, of course, nothing like a reverend should be.

1. Robert Reich gives a very Germanic pronunciation to
his own name. Just is poking fun at the little
midget.
2. Rush, while driving through Rio Linda, was shocked
by the amount of abandonded appliances in the yards.
The town has become a symbol for the ‘downtrodden’.
3. The Reverend Jesse is a poking fun at this
so called reverend. He is no more reverend than my
dog. Just ask his bastard child by one of his concubines.

[Sans-Culotte]

I have never understood why he calls Al Gore Algore (as if it is one word).

[Doulos1]

What do you MEAN?

[TigersEye]

Bingo! First post to get all three right.

Ahhh yes, thanks for reminding me of that. That was another question I forgot to ask.

You’re from Rio Linda, aren’t you.

I just asked abuot Rio Linda, why should I be from there. Are you from Rio Linda ?

[fish hawk]

Because I read your post and answered it not really caring what others said. If you really care, when you got the answers you should have posted this: Please no more answers, I get it now. lol

[Bigh4u2]

think ‘Egore’.

Frankensteins (Bill Clinton’s) sidekick!

[safeasthebanks]

Ignore the faggot. He’s a would be Rush stalker that shows up on all Rush threads with ignorant comments. Its because Rush keeps ignoring those nude photos this homo keeps sending him. One day we’ll hear about HG going to prison (and loving it) for threatening the new Mrs Rush or some other bizarre behavior. Then we’ll all say, “I remember when HG was just a FR kook. My, how she has grown...”

[ConservaTexan]

I disagree. He said many think so but that he really is imitating how Wm. F. Buckley said the Most Reverand's name

Correct! Rush has covered this numerous times over the years.

[La Lydia]

Rio Linda is right outside of Sacramento, where he began to make his mark on the world.

[Niteranger68]

This guy RR must have a lisp that only occurs when he introduces himself or something ?

No, he's one of these pointy-headed economist that adds syllables where they don't exist.

[Colvin]

There is one answer to all three questions.

This is ALL Bushes fault.

[OldPossum]

I am just now beginning to look at the comments, so maybe others have brought this up, but I quit listening to Limbaugh after I finally got tired of hearing him say, “I was born to host and you were born to listen.” What an insulating SOB thing to say, as though the listenership was composed of blobs with craniums just waiting to be filled with the Words of the Master.

That and the many times he has claimed to be infallible finally exceeded my interet in his political analysis.

A**hole!

Apparently not...

[NCC-1701]

“...* Why does he mock the Former Secretary of Labor’s name everytime he uses it as in ROBERT REICHSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ( lasting about 10 seconds )....”

There’s an audio recording somewhere of Reich himself doing just that. Rush has played that bit on some occassions. It’s funny. Reich was being interviewed a number of years ago and he exagerated his last name for some weird reason. Rush took that and ran with it.

RE: Apparently not...

EMPHASIS on Apparently...

[GoldenPup]

He is mocking Jackson by imatating the way the late William F. Buckley usd to pronounce Jackson’s name.

[TigersEye]

I have never understood why he calls Al Gore Algore (as if it is one word).

I think that's because Slick Willy always referred to him as Sen. Al Gore or Vice President Al Gore instead of Sen. Gore or Vice President Gore. When he did it sounded like all one word.
