Here is a link to the Des Moines Register piece, which I couldn't post due to copyright legalities.

“Dung Heap” Harkin

That has a nice ring to it.

[ghost of nixon]

Limbaugh has nicknames for almost all liberal political figures - I doubt Harkin is getting any special attention from Rush

[travlnmn41]

Why doesn't Dung Heap Harkin poll the troops and see if they want Al Franken?

[sofaman]

hang on a sec...wasn't Harkin the guy that talked about his air combat when he wasn't involved in combat? Correct me if I'm wrong, please. He also forhot to mention that Limbaugh is on AFR for 1 hour per day.

"Wouldn't know the truth if it hit him in the face"....pot...kettle ...black..

[CrazyIvan]

Harkin has a point. WWII had Tokyo Rose and Lord Haw-Haw, the allies of our enemies in this war deserve their own radio personality also.

[FairWitness]

Limbaugh was not pleased, so on his show the next day he referred to Harkin as “Dung Heap.”

I don't know how long Rush has been calling Sen. Harkin "dung Heap Harkin", but it is safe to say it started long before this current incident.

[RandallFlagg]

I remember Rush saying about a year ago that Harkin isn't willing to put this up as something for members of the military to poll on.

Gee. I wonder why that is.....

[RabidBartender]

"More recently, Harkin lambasted Limbaugh on the senate floor, saying Limbaugh “wouldn’t know the truth if it hit him in the face,”

This coming Harkin, who lied to America, claiming he shot down MiGs over Vietnam, when all he did was fly garbage flights from Phillipines to Japan. What a POS.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The spirit on Rush's end was full of good cheer.

He even sent old "Dung Heap" a Club Gitmo T-shirt and a subscription to the Limbaugh Letter and Rush 24/7.

More recently, Harkin lambasted Limbaugh on the senate floor, saying Limbaugh "wouldn’t know the truth if it hit him in the face"

This from the Flying Ace of Viet Nam.

[montag813]

Limbaugh gets a single freakin hour on AFR, while NPR get a dozen or more per day. That's fair?

[Smedley]

I say let's put on an hour of Pacifica Radio every day for our troops for every hour of Rush.

Honestly, I couldn't think of a better idea to expose our troops to liberalism in one of its vile, honest forms.

Communist Iowa Senator Tom Harkin

[HawaiianGecko]

	"What I object to is that Rush Limbaugh is on all week, and our troops get to hear him, but they don't get to hear any viewpoints from the other side of the political spectrum," Harkin said.   I say put one or both of them on the air.  Good heavens, soldiers need comic relief too ya know!

 

 

[somniferum]

Really, all the good senator wants to do is give equal time to people who hate our country and military, and want it to fail in its mission. After all, its not fair to the troops if they dont have at least an hour a day of radio broadcasts extolling the virtues of the 'freedom fighters', lengthy discussion on how US troops are all warcriminals, and fundraising drives for the DNC.

[roylene]

I am confused. Does not the Military broadcast go 24/7 and Rush is only five hours on their broadcast?
Whats dung heaps problem?

[Chode]

listen stooopid... Rush was a WRITE IN!!! he wasn't even a choice on their questionair!!! if you want to do another survey fine. but don't expect to see alfrankin get any votes.

[darkangel82]

Dung Heap....ahahaha...that just made me laugh out loud. If he wants "fair and balanced" he should turn on Fox News.

[clintonh8r]

I must disagree with Rush on this one. Harkin is not a dung heap. He's more of a steaming turd.....

[theDentist]

Well, I certainly will dry to refrain from calling him "Dung Heap" Harkin.

From here on I'll just call him "The Dunger".
