Its on. A little.
I asked Palin spokesperson Meghan Stapleton for comment on Rushs rant, and she emailed me this:
Governor Palin believes crude and demeaning name calling at the expense of others is disrespectful.
It hardly has the passion of her response to Rahm, and theres no call for him to step down. But given Rushs stature among conservatives, its pretty interesting that she went this far, denouncing his on-air rant as crude and demeaning name-calling.
His on-air rant was just an extended goof at Emanuels expense for describing lefty activists as retarded, but having chosen to pick this fight, I guess Sarahcuda cant make exceptions for humor. This is the second prominent conservative her team has had to chastise in two days: An advisor to Rick Perry, whom shes supporting, was upbraided in similar terms yesterday for using the word retarded on a conference call (its now become a minor issue in the Texas Republican primary).

That is true!!
Amen! You said what I was thinking, only you type faster!
A check of her Facebook and twitter accounts will show whether she did....
I went into my paint store the other day and told the owner the paint I bought was drying too fast.
OWNER: “Well, I can add something to it to r..... the drying time.
ME: “r.....? What the hell is that?
OWNER: “Sorry, it’s not politically correct to say the word”
ME: “OK, can you just spell it for me”
OWNER: “I can but just remember I didn’t SAY the word...R-e-t-a-r-d” /s
Rush was reading news accounts of Rahm-beaux using the word “retard” which ironically appears nine times in the Democrat health care bill.
EVERY tactic the Left uses is explained by Alinski’s Rules for Radicals. Rush's repeating of Rahm’s “retard” statement, and Sarah's response about Rush's statement, is a perfect example of their use of Rule #4:
4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.”They will always point out what they see as the "hypocrisy" of the Right, knowing they have no standards or morals for themselves to abide by. It's a no-win game, so it's best just not to play by their rules. |
No, not incumbants, liberals, socialists and statists. There are many incumbants that would be tough to replace.
“F’n retard” is what she objected to. we don’t need any more strawmen on this thread.
Yeah,
I stood in the front seat of a car between my parents, I rode a bike without a helmet for hours on end, bought cigarettes for my parents and shot bb’s at my brothers.
Prisident Palin will be amused by your shallow analysis, I’m sure.

Rush ain’t right all the time.

Yes, the first half of the article is funny and true. But, the last half, well, is Bush's fault... Too bad the writer didn't stick with his opening rant.
Right. By the way, why do you have the MSU logo on your home page?
Email Rush received:
RUSH: I just got an e-mail from another web subscriber, Thomas Morely, subject line: "I am offended. Dear Mr. Limbaugh: You just said you feel like an idiot, as if that were a bad thing. Mr. Limbaugh, I am a recovering idiot, and I'm totally offended."
