Dem. calls Limbaugh a 'sorry excuse for a human being' @ 10:44 am by Jeremy P. Jacobs

Democrats, it appears, are becoming increasingly willing to fire away at conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh.

Exhibit A - This statement from Congressman Alan Grayson, a Florida Democrat, is floating around the blogosphere.

“I’m sorry Limbaugh called for harsh sentences for drug addicts while he was a drug addict. I’m also sorry that he’s bent on seeing America fail. And I’m sorry that Limbaugh is one sorry excuse for a human being.”

Todd Jurkowski, a spokesman for Grayson, confirmed the statement. He said that Grayson said it shortly after RNC chair Michael Steele issued and apology to Limbaugh and so "the congressman decided to isssue one as well, and that's what came out of it."

Your right, I can’t imagine Rush ever saying such a thing.

Besides, when did being addicted to a drug become a crime?

They always HAVE to lie.

To paraphrase something Ann Coulter wrote, lying is not just okay, to liberals, it's a sport.

There are two dead-simple little dots they never connect, however.

It never, ever occurs to them that if they are always making things up to see what we'll believe...

...then, maybe the basic premises for which they stand might be wrong.

(duh)

Notice the left’s attempt to “hypocrisy trap” another conservative.

Usually they use it not only as a slam on the individual person, but on the concept of right and wrong as well.

If you espouse some principle that you fail to live up to, the left points at that as devaluing the principle itself.

Good point. The addiction to drugs is not in itself a crime. Being under the influence of certain substances can be a misdemeanor though.

The 8th is a moderate to right leaning district. Was in GOPs hands for years.

Not a leftwing loon district, so this wont play that well.

You f*****g a$$hole: you may have your own opinion, but you don't have your own facts. THAT IS NOT WHAT RUSH SAID, D!CKHEAD!

Rush wants SOCIALISM to fail, so AMERICA succeeds.

FOAD, douchebag.

Makes me think of the line by Eastwood in Gran Torino...substitute Rush for eastwood...

“Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while that you shouldn’t have phuked with......that’s me”

Gran Torino in 10 minutes

I just called his office and told them to let the Congressman know it’s better to keep your mouth shut and let the world think you’re an idiot then to open it and prove it.

Awesome!! Everyone who calls should say that. I'm going to use it when I call this f*cktard on my lunch break. It's better(and cleaner) then what I was going to say.

This “trap” won’t work on Rush. It is an untrue statement.

Grayson is forgetting that Obama is an admitted DRUG ADDICT/USER.

TAKING COMMENTS OUT OF CONTEXT AND MIS-FRAMING THEM IS THE USUAL TACTIC OF THE TRUE EXTREMEIST DEMOCRATS.

NOTHING NEW HERE ... IT IS BALDER DASH.

THE SAME THING WAS DONE TO JESUS.

TRUTH HAS NO EFFECT ON A COMMITTED DEMOCRAT.
