Texan4Auburn 1,626 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Know what else would make Chicago better? If you didn't have Rush Limbaugh listeners and their children going down there and buying drugs, thus contributing to gangs incomes, recruiting methods, and the violence that occurs over those products and the territories to sell them in. I really doubt very many of Rush's listeners make up a significant % of the sales. As we all know, his audience is ' dying off', right ? But good thing Chicago has Rahm 'Dead FIsh' Emanuel at the helm. He'll soon be making great use of that crisis. Hey, take every single shot at Rahm you want. I'll even join in.... wanna take shots at the crime? the controversies over the people that run the parking meters and prices? the politics of lengthening the time of a yellow light? Food trucks in the city? Discrimination within the fire department? all kind of stuff. Lets go, I'm on all board for busting Rahm. While I can't be sure. I suspect you really don't know that much about the collar counties of Chicago. So as you like to say with Rush, if you haven't currently lived in the western burbs of Chicago, well then don't tell me what is going on out there, cause you won't know. I lived there. Heroin is a problem in Chicago suburbs at the moment for example. One of the reasons why is that it is cheaper and easier to obtain than prescriptions currently. One prescription in particular....Oxycontin. Wasn't that a favorite of Rush also? Now where do you think these people from the collar counties are going to get their drugs? Be it for personal use or as a means of more income. You think it's the dealers from crime infected areas of Chicago that is going out to areas like Nappeville or St. Charles and dealing at high school or adult parties? You would be very wrong. Your kid, husband, wife does drugs in the collar counties, then their dealer is either someone in their social circle or area that goes into Chicago to get it and bring it to them. Or they are going down there and getting it themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, my experience is that most affluent people think of Rush as a cynical buffoon who makes a fortune off of pandering to people's worst social instincts. He's a prophet of xenophobia. The irony is his wealth is derived from making other fear for their own well being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cole256 17,039 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 It's just so crazy that any opinion of rush other than his own is wrong....so wrong that he feels that he is vindicated to insult your intelligence......then on top of that it's cool for him to spit out any opinion he has of somebody and he is quick to point out if you insult him.....lol. I'm telling you I'd be very surprised if he's not a dictator like boss that's an a hole that everybody at the job hates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There IS no evidence. All you have is the opinion of politically motivated detractors, and nothing more. It's one thing to honestly disagree a point of view. It's entirely different to then lie about that person, his intent, and bear false witness as to what he's actually saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a prophet of xenophobia. 100% nonsense. The affluent people I know personally, which - depending on your definition of affluent - is quite a few people. And anyone who claims xenophobia is not part of Limbaugh's bread and butter has not listened to him. Or, they are naturally xenophobic themselves which in your case, would be easy to believe. But I have to admit, you are correct in a general way. I am ignorant of very many things, just like everyone else. For example I can't even restore the audio in my computer and plan to take it to someone who is expert in such matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His entire schtick is xenophobic at it's core. What do you think all his ridicule of liberals is about? "Liberals hate the country and want to destroy it. But we know better...We know what it takes to be a real American...." He does nothing but define groups and organizations who are not only wrong in their views of Americanism but are actually working against the "true" values of Americanism. And what about that mincing speaking style he adopts to ridicule politically correct intellectuals? Who invented the term "femiNazis"? Even the term "dittoheads" is a nod to cultural solidarity. There's really no reason to bring up all the disparaging remarks he's made about categories of people who are aren't right wing conservatives. We've all heard them. Only in your case, perhaps you haven't actually "heard" them. That's because you aren't a liberal lemming. You are one of the special, knowledgeable, patriotic few. You are a dittohead.

AURaptor 1,121 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 The only source we've turned up so far that putatively documents this quote is the 2006 book 101 People Who Are Really Screwing America, which attributes it to Rush Limbaugh but itself cites no source. . On his program of 12 October 2009, Limbaugh disclaimed this quote as a fabricated one:Read more at http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/limbaugh.asp#MQ3Qs8LL5QqSRX82.99 Hope this clears things up for you.
