This time the media neglected to name the year. For past elections weve had The Year of the Woman, The Year of the Soccer Mom, and, famously, The Year of the Angry White Male. That was 1994, also known as The Year of the Voters Tantrum, in Peter Jennings famous put-down, after the Republican takeover of Congress. But this year, nada.
So, given the behavior of high profile liberals this election season, Ill dub it, The Year of the Angry White Lib Male. Folks, this is hate-crime territory. With foaming-at-the-mouth, venomous rhetoric designed to eviscerate President Bush (scorned as an idiotic fascist chimp liar) an attack Kerry critics, liberals have come unglued. Take Lawrence ODonnell, MSNBC senior political analyst, who totally lost it on the air on October 22 when he appeared with John ONeill, co-author of Unfit for Command. Heres just a portion:
Thats a lie, John ONeill! Keep lying, its all you do!...Lies!...Thats a lie! Its another lie! Thats a lie! Absolute lie! You lie in that book endlessly!...You lie about documents endlessly!...Youre just lying about it!...[Y]ou lying writer in your pack of lies!...Disgusting, lying book!...Its a pack of lies!...He just lied to you! He spews out this filth! Point to his name on the report, you liar! Point to his name, you liar!...You just spew lies!...I just hate the lies of John ONeill. I hate lies. Its not an argument; theyre proven lies ONeills a liar, hes been a liar for 35 years about this, and hes found other liars They lied!...Lies!...[Y]ou are a liar who makes things up!...You want the lies! Thats how you make your living, on lies!
And so on. Ponder some of the invectives of Michael Moore: I would like to apologize for referring to George W. Bush as a deserter. What I meant to say is that George W. Bush is a deserter, an election thief, a drunk driver, a WMD liar, and a functional illiterate. And he poops his pants. More Moore: I want Bush paraded in handcuffs outside of a police house as a common criminal
Then theres Kerry spokesman Joe Lockhart: [Bush is] unhinged from reality. And dont forget Bruce Springsteen: [The Bush Administration] frightened and manipulated the American people into war. Springsteens Bush-bashing, Vote for Change tour was followed with glee by the Arab network Al-Jazeera. A clearly wigged-out Dan Rather was willing to torpedo his 40-year career in an attempt to destroy George W. Bush with faked documents on 60 Minutes.
Which brings us to Kerry and Edwardsthe two Johns. Edwards declared: I say if you live in the United States of America and you vote for George Bush, youve lost your mind. As President Bushs poll numbers rose despite hammering by the media, writes Evan Thomas in Newsweek, Kerry was stunned: He said with a sight to one top staffer, I cant believe Im losing to this idiot.
But all the rage didnt get them the one prize they were so desperate to win: political power. The angry lib males lost. Because, ultimately, the voters saw them for what they are: weak and unstable. In other words, girlie-men.
Any typos you find are mine, not Rush Limbaugh's.

Why limit it just to White Lib Males? Just say it is the Year of the Angry Unhinged Lib--of any race and gender?
That'd work too.
The Year of the Angry White Lib
Wouldn't want to leave out Maureen Dowd, Katie Couric, Susan Estrich and many others.
He's like an angry second-grader defending Spiderman to a Hulk fan.
Rush could have added angry DNC chairman Terry McAuliffe to the list.
Yeah. This was definitely the Angry White Lib Year. Heck, this could've included all people's. Everyone was involved in conservative bashing. In that respect, everyone was equal in the liberal's eyes.
Yep. McAuliffe too.
Perfect! When I saw the headline I first thought it should be corrected by ...."girly man" instead of "male". and that is porecisely where Rush took it, so beautifully.
The Year of the Angry Girlie Man
BTTT!!!!!!
The Year of the Angry Girlie Man
Thanks for the ping, it's a good read.
That is a stupid anaology. Everyone knows the Hulk would crush SpiderMan.
Now if it was Daredevil vs. Spiderman, then you could have a real thoughtful arguement!!
Spiderman would chant kharmic humming at Hulk and cause him to de-Hulk. And then he'd train Bruce Banner in yoga and relaxation techniques so he'd never Hulk up again.
I don't know about any of you, but I am missing my Rush fix these past two days!
Glad to see this post for a little relief.
