Rush, to Judgment (Alter Barf Alert)

Rush, to Judgment It’s been a bad year for bully-boy conservatives. Time for them to taste their own bitter medicine.

NEWSWEEK

Oct. 20 — If you listen hard, you can hear the booming voice: Look, the Clinton liberals and feminazis won’t tell you, but here’s the problem with this big talk-show host who turns out to be a prescription-drug junkie. You have a guy who finally stops spinning and fesses up for his actions. Fine. He says he won’t play the victim. Good. He’s off to rehab. God bless. But what he and his apologists want you to forget is that he broke the law—yes, the L-A-W. Some of us around here still have respect for it.

[sonsofliberty2000]

This is virile stuff. First off his Rush imitation is way off:

"FOLKS, THIS GUY didn’t just use drugs, he put another person in harm’s way to feed his own habit. He repeatedly sent his maid out into a parking lot to score for him. Thousands of pills. Talk about cowardly. The housekeeper was being set up by her big celebrity boss to take the fall if they got busted. Now, that’s the problem with these famous people who develop the wrong ’60s values. The little person—the kind of average American who listens to this program—takes the risks, while the celebrity gets the slobbering praise for overcoming his “problems.” That’s the world these liberals have brought you. Unforgivable."

If I remember correctly at all the stories all said Rush met her in the parking lot (I may be wrong) if that is even the case. Secondly Alter goes in to advertise for the upcoming onslaught (and afterwards mass mass failure of) Liberal talkshow hosts. Then he goes on to slam Bennet, Coulter (calling her a wacko), and O'Reilly and once again touts his liberal heros, especially socialist scum Franken, who descends further and further into destroying our nation. The last paragraph though is the one that shows what the left are trying to do now:

"Liberals, believers in tolerance and drug treatment, treat Rush with insincere sympathy. Conservatives have the nerve to blast the liberals for playing too rough, the better to rally the faithful. The big guy himself could help the dialogue if he returns to the airwaves after rehab with a more tolerant and less vitriolic message. But then he wouldn’t be Rush Limbaugh anymore."

Sure, maybe Rush won't attack you to hard...

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." Teddy Roosevelt

The above quote reminds me of Rush. The RATS just remind me of stinking vermin.

[Conspiracy Guy]

obligatory Rush poem post. I wrote it the day he told of problem before he told it.

Rush to Judgment on Rush

For many years he’s been our voice,
The loudest of us all.
The vipers tout that he has slipped,
But we can’t let him fall.
Let’s wait and see the truth come out,
Before we judge old Rush.
Don’t let the TV vultures turn,
His image into mush.
So send a card or make a call,
To voice your true support.
If he has broken any laws,
He’ll have his day in court.
So let me close with how I feel,
And then I’ll sit back down.
Rush is right and tells the truth,
Unlike that Couric Clown.

I think I found myself someone to vote for next week on the list perhaps...

[mombonn]

I hate johnathan alter with a purple passion, won't read this drivel, and just want to flag myself to read the alter-bashing that will undoubtedly take place.

[finnman69]

When I read between the lines I get the feeling Alter is a sadistic LW prick who enjoys kicking puppies.

[finnman69]

Another reason why MSNBC's ratings are in the toilet.

[sonsofliberty2000]

John Altered is a menace indeed.

[Pokey78]

I started hating Alter when, after the VP debate between Cheney & Lieberman, he sneered, "Well at least we know there are 3 adults in this race" (or something to that effect).

[Defendingliberty]

There was no controling Legal authority....and Mr Alter is VERY concerned with the law....

[facedown]

Take one part tabloid hearsay, one part distortion and one part bile. Mix well. Instant Alterman.

[sonsofliberty2000]

OK here goes:

Seigfried and Roy were to be married in a private ceremony until Rush Limbaugh attacked and mauled the magician. This is disgusting and just like Conservatives. Franken would never bite a magician. Maybe an illusionist but never ever a magician.

How was that?

[Peace will be here soon]

"But what he and his apologists want you to forget is that he broke the law—yes, the L-A-W."

---

As of today, I don`t believe it has ever been proven that Rush broke any LAW. There are only allegations, that is all. If we accept this type of thinking, we should just throw Rush in the slammer and not even have a trial. Rush admitted an addiction, but never mentioned where and how he came into possession of the " prescription pain medication ". Is it possible he got them from his doctor ? Is it possible his house maid knew of the problem and is using it to get a plea aggreement ? etc......We simply do not know at this point. This guy is stating something as fact when he simply does not have the facts to prove his statement. Lets wait and see what the authorities say and do, Johnny boy.

[facedown]

LOL!

[alnick]

So far we've heard the maid's side of the story. We don't know what really happened. The truth will come out in due time, but until then, we do not know how much, if any, of the maid's story is even true.

[cwb]

Alter was such a Clinton ass-kisser that I lost any respect I had for him way back when. The guys a perfect example of the girly-men that the Clinton's surrounded themselves with.

[cwb]

Oh...and he was actually on Joe S's program talking about Rush's problems last week. In that appearance he was rather humble and understanding of Rush's problems. It appears that the only time many liberals become brave and abusive is when they have a pen in thier hands when no one can confront them.

[nadlo]

The opposite of love is not hate,but indifference!!!!

WHO IS JOHATHAN ALDER???

[IronJack]

if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly.

And that is Rush Limbaugh. All except the "failing" part.
