Party Of Love And Progress Rejoices Over Death Of Political Opponent (Babylon Bee)
The Babylon Bee ^ | February 17, 2021 | Babylon Bee

Posted on 02/17/2021 10:02:15 AM PST by Yo-Yo

U.S.—Within minutes of the news of the death of Rush Limbaugh, Democrats, well known as the party of love, empathy, and progress, began to rejoice over the death of their political opponent.

The party that is known for standing against hate in all its forms, the party that has chanted "Love Trumps Hate!" for the last four years, the party that calls the other side hateful bigots who will be on the wrong side of history for their opposition to love and tolerance, all cheered loudly and danced on Limbaugh's grave on social media for much of the day Wednesday.

"Listen, hate has no home here -- wait, Limbaugh's dead? Wooohooooo!!!" shouted one progressive podcaster. "Today should be a national holiday!" She then jumped on Twitter and garnered thousands of likes and retweets for tweeting horrible things about a man she disagreed with.

Unfortunately for progressives everywhere, Limbaugh has announced he will continue broadcasting from the afterlife.

I thought the Bee was a satire site? This isn’t satire.

Every day in every possible way the Left proves the truth of my tag line.

Strike him down, and he will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

R.I.P., Rush

DANG!

I must agree. This is just sick. Who at the Bee was asleep at the wheel to approve this trash?

The folks there are pissed.

I am, too.

The HuffPo is calling Limbaugh a bigot.

Have you seen the posts from the lefties on Twitter? This is spot on.

I imagine the things that would be said here, should Obama pass on, won’t be much better.

The purpose of satire is not to make you laugh. That is what the comic section is for. It is to make you think.

All I would say for most leftists is RIP and contemplate our mortality.

Would you expect anything less from them? They can probably hardly keep from busting out laughing while reporting it. Why yes Virginia, they are that evil.

“The purpose of satire is not to make you laugh. That is what the comic section is for. It is to make you think.”

Thanks for the admonition. Satire should also be clever.

Tasteless? They are just telling us what the Left is doing right now. Truth isn’t tasteless.

The only Satire in the Article was the last line.

Rush is gone and he is still haunting the empty Minds of the Left.

>>>I imagine the things that would be said here, should Obama pass on, won’t be much better<<<

I respectfully disagree. People here (for the most part, nobody is perfect) would never get down to the sewer like level of the Left.

I never wished death on Obama in the eight years he helped dismantle the Republic. Like Rush said, I hoped he would fail.

Think of it, did Rush EVER wish Death upon anyone who were hell bent on destroying him over the last three Decades?
