Williams Mocks Limbaugh, Drug Addiction
NewsBusters ^ | July 1, 2006 | Noel Sheppard

Fair warning for those that are sensitive to vulgarity, for this post will need to use some to properly quote the individual involved. Comedian Robin Williams was on the "Tonight Show" Thursday, and used the occasion to make fun of Rush Limbaugh's recent Viagra incident. To be sensitive to those that might be offended, all obscene quotes will appear in the "Read More" section.

Now, to be fair, I am a huge Robin Williams fan, and believe him to be an equal opportunity offender. Even Rush, who has a fabulous sense of humor, likely would think this was funny (video link to follow).

With that in mind, host Jay Leno nicely set up Williams by asking for his opinion about the recent Viagra story concerning Limbaugh. Williams answered: "First of all, it seems a little redundant for him to take Viagra. You know, the fact that he takes it he gets taller. (audience laughter)"

Williams continued: "I mean, why do you need Viagra? It's a hard thing when he's a big prick already. (huge audience applause)"

Next, Williams moved on to more drug references: "Where was he staying in the Caribbean? Club Medicated?"

From there, the discussion moved into a homosexual theme after Leno mentioned that Rush was down there on an all boys vacation. Williams responded: "That's code. What do you need to take Viagra on an all boys vacation?"

Williams then suggested that Rush was in the Caribbean to go "fly-fishing" as he pretended to use his nether regions as a rod and reel.

Every time he talks I hear Mork from Ork, and envision those stupid ass Mork suspenders.

Mork for Ork with the suspenders. His greatest performance. Peaked early I suppose.

If I recall correctly, that line was Jonah Goldberg's about Alan Dershowitz.

Repeating one's bon mots, or worse stealing them from someone else, is the death knell in a comedian's career.

Yeah, Mr. Williams, alcoholism is so much more sexy than prescription medication addiction.

For those who know Robin Williams earlier history

From what I've read Robin Williams spent a number of years "shoveling snow" (cocaine and/or meth).

Me three. And he's got a reputation for stealing material too.

I just saw your post on the other thread right after I posted #13 on this one.

Robin Williams always seemed like the jerk we all met in school who couldn't get past the sophomoric horsing around and just grow up.

Robin was sharing a needle with John Belushi the night he bought it.

Rush's addiction killed no one.

Robin's addiction killed his best friend.

Ever hear the expression about living in a glass house, Robin?

'Moscow on the Hudson' was one of the most pro-American movies of the 80s.

Such a little hypocrite WIlliams is. I swear I have seen him where he has just eaten a whole pack of Little Debbie Powdered donuts or has coke (not the kind you buy at the store) on his upper lip..

Robin Williams is a joke himself and it's like "the pot calling the kettle black." I've seen him so wired that he has to be on something himself. As a Jew, he should reflect on what the Liberal Democratic Party thinks of him.

Robin Williams must have, or thinks he has, (as they called it on a Saturday Night Live skit) a "teeny weenie peenie"

That he does. I've seen it.

(so has anybody else who saw "The Fisher King")

Robin Williams isn't Jewish, unless he recently converted.
