Proof that Rush is a true intellectual

Wonder what he'd do with "Sartre".

ROFL Limbaugh and Bush come from the same school of lower education.

"He pronounced it 'came-us'."

In his defense (limpbaugh's, that is), neo-cons will say Camus was French - so who cares.... Just out of curiosity, did he put the accent on the "came" - or on the "us"?

Rush Limbaugh is an idiot, you may a little more sense when the was addicted to oxycontin.

Rush will just die some day and others will groan – he’s gone. My hero’s gone

It is amazing how well stupidity sells.

hahahaha are you serious? You made a post about this and got responses on it? LOL.

Have you ever seen Obama without a teleprompter? 57 states? Mixing up veterans day and memorial day "seeing some of you in the crowd". I bowl like a special olympic kid? Remember that one? LOL.

I may not agree with Rush on all the stuff he does but you HAVE to come up with something better than that... This is just weak.

~M

I'm with Michael on this one. We have a President who cannot do anything without a teleprompter and you're focusing on this? Seriously? You do get it that names are the most difficult thing to pronounce, right? Who cares whether or not Limbaugh knew it was French?

Let's see... What's more important than this? How about how Obama wants to rush the cap and trade thing through before Memorial day...and how it's going to cost the average Amererican about $3200 per year.

I loathe Mr. Limbaugh, but I am loathe to mock him for mispronouncing the name of the author/philosopher. Are we so shallow that we will attack such a minor thing? And are we so classist that we will put down anyone who might be self-educated because of nothing more than the failure to correctly pronounce a name? We can be better than that.

I agree with Angela. As one who first encountered many words in print while I was still a young child I mispronounced them for years and suffered ridicule for it.

hes a n idiot

No matter what any of you think or say, that guy is laughing at you and your emotions and fears and prejudices all the way to the bank!!!!!

Marilyn M is right as the right could be on this.

Limpball is a man of the peephole.

he speaks out for the greed and stuff of the uncommon man.

he knows whats good for the haves and believes in his own kind of allegiances to the have not's.


when he gets to bouncing at the podium, you can see the holey altered mind of spirit of prescription come on him as he begins to speak in the tongues of idiots.

I bet he used his salad fork to eat his steak too.

All you losers do all day is try to find things to complain and bitch about! God Damn that is all you people do. Don't you get miserable feeling like you have nothing to do but find fault in everything? What will it be today? Did you see someone on TV wearing a striped shirt and checker pants. This post is so pathetic. Tells us a lot about the person posting too....

The irony here is that most of you who are bashing Rush for mispronouncing a name are sitting in your trailer park making minimum wage bashing a man who makes millions. He did not get where he is today by being an idiot like most of you.

Alrighty then. I don't listen to this wind bag.

I suppose you are perfect and have never mispronounced anything in you life right? This article says more about you and the people who have made some ridiculous comments then it does about Rush.

True Rory, the fact that our idiot president needs a teleprompter to spit out a coherent sentance is proof of that!

Kay & Snowy Cat: Your remark suggests that Obama is unique in his use of a teleprompter. Of course, this is not true. Many presidents before him made extensive use of the device which is in common use by broadcasters and politicians everywhere. Reagan, Clinton and both Bushes used a teleprompter. I know you probably didn't think so because Bush still sounded like a 5th grader trying to use words he couldn't pronounce and didn't understand to impress his elders, but that underscores one of the differences between the articulate Obama and the tongue-tied Bush.

A teleprompter is not a magic device to make you sound intelligent. It is merely an electronic means of reading text, instead of reading it off of a printed page, that allows a speaker to raise his head and maintain greater eye-contact with his audience while reading text.

Obama is simply using 21st century technology in a 21st century presidency, but the right wing desperate for something to criticize him over is trying to make it into a flaw.

Why don't you attack his choice of mustard now? Or would you rather hold your tongue until you have some kind of substantive policy based criticism to level?

"Why don't you attack his choice of mustard now? Or would you rather hold your tongue until you have some kind of substantive policy based criticism to level?"

Rory, your statment could be used for the author of this very article.....correct?

At least Obama can read the teleprompter, whereas Bush could not.

I do not believe in bashing people unless they deserve it. Limbaugh deserves bashed and exposed. I tag him as an evil man.

...or fait accompli ?

ROTFLMAO ...Seriously? Using a teleprompter is the best you knuckle draggers can do? Presidents have been using teleprompters since their invention. Obama can actually READ them, where as Bush could not! Reagan would not have been able to put two coherent sentences together without one! ROTFLMAO!

Joyce: "No matter what any of you think or say, that guy is laughing at you and your emotions and fears and prejudices all the way to the bank!!!!!"

Yep - in the worst recession since the great depression. How great for republicans for the fat addict to laugh - all the way to the bank.

Anything to defend the big drugster.

Of course, these are the same people who tried to make an issue of the president's choice of mustard on his hamburger.

Personally I dont care about Limbaugh.

But I do think most our recent troubles in the middle east come from the fact that the first Bush couldnt pronounce Saddam Hussein's name correctly.

Rory, Regan didnt use teleprompters. He used notes. Im not sure about Bush.

The point everyone was trying to make is this: It is a pathetic attempt to bash someone over something so small. This post is retarded.

If you want to bash someone, try to lift the level of intellectual content from the bable that is currently used here. I also dont like hate that is shown here. I dont hate the president. I disagree with many things he does...but i dont hate him. The name calling being used here reflects the sad state of our overall attitide of the liberal groups. I see it over and over again, where if a liberal disagrees with something or someone, they resort to personal attacks.

Erik, Spartan, Leo, Jack, Roger, Clark, etc... lift the level of conversation to something higher than 3rd grade. I guess I expect this to be a place where intelligent people GATHER. Maybe I am asking for too much.

~M

Michael;

If you're here, it's only second grade.

Glad you got rid of that Howdy Doody picture though, that thing reminded me of why I have nightmares about clowns.

And Michael;

You've got to be kidding. The Frightwing teabaggers of the Fat Head party have attacked not only the president, but the first family, on everything from his choice of mustard on a hamburger, to their choice of a dog, to the first lady's choice to show her bare arms.

regardless of what you said, this post is retarded. Its reaching, at best, and petty at least. Its comments like you just made that show the lack of intelligence of some here at gather. Attacking me for my pic or name calling "Frightwing teabaggers of the Fat Head party" is just infantile. You resort to name calling because you dont have the ability to debate any real issues due to your lack of knowledge on topics of political theory.

You are exactly the person I was referring to in my post above.
Thanks for proving my point.

~M

I seem to have hit a nerve.

Thanks guys. This has been fun. If Limbaugh had even an ounce of humility I might feel bad.

Guess I'll just head back home.




PS

You know that God Hates Trailers!

Michael;

Just keep dreaming.

I can debate any issue you want, but the fact remains that on a good day you're a clown, and you don't have many good days.

I'm still glad you got rid of the howdy doody picture though.

Now go have some tea.
