Who knows? Whatever his DNA composition might be, around here Rush Limbaugh is Swine of the Week in Perpetuity — meaning that when I pronounce someone SOTW, it’s an unfinished sentence the rest of which is “in addition to Rush Limbaugh”. And this past week was no different. The GOP’s

Sandra Fluke gets the Brigette DePape treatment
To Fox News, “slut” + “prostitute” = “Fame-Hungry Activist” Remember Brigette DePape and the sexist, vile treatment she received at the hands of our media and the Conservative party? Welcome to the hatefest, Sandra. Rushbo was just the beginning. Sexism is a complicated business. It’s especially ugly if you are
Continue readingFive advertisers drop Rush Limbaugh after Sandra Fluke slander
After Limbaugh called the woman refused at place at Darrell Issa’s birth control table ”slut” and “prostitute”, the media and the progressive blogosphere and even Republican presidential contenders (save Romney who just couldn’t bring himself to criticize Limbaugh – Bain Capital co-owns Limbaugh’s broadcaster) denounced Limbaugh’s remarks. Now, thanks to social media, five advertisers have quit Limbaugh.

I’ve made it a rule at LFR to no longer blog about Rush Limbaugh. His modus operandi is to piss off the left. Every time we write about him, we feed his ego and his wallet. But rules at LFR are made to be broken and because of this latest

#gop #rushlimbaugh #mittromney #ricksantorum Republican contenders for the nomination of their party claim that the spat over contraception has nothing to do with a ‘war on women’, but a battle against a big-government mandate to force religious affiliated institutions from providing contraception and other related products from heathcare plans of

Here is Rush Limbaugh – the foul mouth knucklehead: Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy Sandra Fluke Georgetown University student is an admirable spokesperson for women on contraceptions. Here is her interview with Ed Schultz of MSNBC. Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and

Comedian Rush Limbaugh – who is, it seems these days, the virtual leader of the increasingly deranged Republican Party – did the Democrats a huge favour the other day with his offensive remarks directed at “college co-ed” (i.e., third-year law student) Susan Fluke. Whether deliberate or not, Limbaugh’s deeply misogynistic

El Rushbo pays tribute to Andrew (‘Stop Raping People!”) Brietbart, the muckraking right-wing activist and provocative web entrepreneur who abruptly died today at the age of 43. Of course, Libmbaugh’s somber eulogy turns out to be really nothing more than a convenient vehicle to attack supposedly hate-filled “leftists” (based on

marc-morano.jpg If the jury was still out on President Barack Obama's climate policy accolades (a huge "if"), consider the verdict now in, and from a surprising character at that: Marc Morano. Morano jubilantly referred to the President as "George W. Obama" in an interview with Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman at COP17, stating: They [the Obama

Here’s another utterly dismal attempt at comedy by right-wing partisans, this time from the ultra-conservative folks at Pajamasmedia with a fake newscast presumably intended to resemble The Onion. Minus anything amusing, witty, or delightful. Why can’t these right-wing clods simply accept the demonstrably obvious fact that their sense of humour

“Borrowed in part from the legacy of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, Canadian neo-conservatism owes much of it’s character to the right-wing populist tradition of the West. “Indeed, Canadians became exporters of neo-con innovation in the 1990s. ‘I would say Margaret Thatcher and Mr. [Preston] Manning are the two non-Americans

You have to hand it to right-wing blowhards like Rush Limbaugh. They are not afraid to come right out and say racist things, PC be damned. After all to Rush (and Shaidle and Levant etc.) they are the ones who are the actual victims of racism at the hands of

Recently, Rush Limbaugh went on another of his anti-science rants. This one was particularly fascinating, though, because of the things he actually got right—even as he &n…

As you know Sharon Bialek is the latest accuser of Herman Cain for sexual harassment or even sexual assault. Limbaugh pronounces her name as Buy-a lick and makes fun of her. This guy is a big crazy himself.As my previous posts show, I am no fan of Cain…

Rush Limbaugh demonstrates, yet again, what an utterly loathsome, hypocritical, morally vacant douchebag he is. No wonder he has such a compelling appeal to countless millions of right-wing “dittoheads”… By the way, MSNBC did very well hiring former Republican campaign … Continue reading →
