Rush just used the word "schadenfreude." It's more evidence Rush is a lurker on here...

The best that babelfish can do with that is:

Damage joy, beautiful God sparks
daughter from Elysium we entered,
feuertrunken Himmli your Heiligtum.

Interesting, but I can't take credit — lots of people use the word “Schadenfreude”, after all. Thanks for the ping, though!

I guarantee you that RUSH has been here for a long, long time.

I agree. Many times he's included material and statements in his program that I've read previously on FR.
And why wouldn't he? FR is a gold mine for cutting edge political dialogue.

Hey, let off. It was sort of a knee-jerk reaction after him reading Congressman Billybob's article on the Medicare Bill.

Excuse me.

I have watched Limbaugh's career from the get go. He is by his own admission, an entertainer. Get that straight. An entertainer.

He puts on a three hour show five days a week.

Ever wonder why he does not urge the dittoheads to action?

Answer: Because, that would not be entertainng. It would require a devotion to something beyond the ratings book, which is what drives the show.

Hey those ain't too bad.

Here's a ruff translation cribbed from my college daze:

Joy at the woes of others, heavenly spark of the Gods
Daughter of Elysium
Drunk with fire we trespass
Upon thy heavenly realm

BTW, Schiller's original word choice was of course "Freude."

And the title "An der Freude" is usually translated "Ode to Joy."

Immortalized in the final movement of Beethoven's Ninth.

I'll know Rush is a lurker when he calls Daschle a maroon.

"Use of a word does not a lurker make, but THIS does.

Congressman Billybob's column was special to FR."

I immediately thought so, too!

Ditto to Billybob!

ODE TO JOY: mash mouse here to hear it
German:
Freude, schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuer-trunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum !

Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder,
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.

Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!
Brüder, über'm Sternenzelt
Muß ein lieber Vater wohnen.

English:
Joy, Oh ! divine scintillation
Sparkling from Elysium,
With a cheerful animation
Goddess, to thy shrine we come.

These our nations once divided
Now your magic spells unite,
Where your wing does beat around them
Brotherhood and love delight.

With a kiss bestowed on millions
Embraced in fraternity,
Let us build a world of union
And peace for all humanity.
