Either a troll or someone who does not get it.

It's far too late to invoke ignorance as an excuse for anyone on this board. Shills, trolls, hired guns, agents provocateur - no matter what they're called, are everywhere, and most of them (including humblegunner) have the skill set of Pelosi's teleprompter writers.

I wonder what his show ratings were today? I imagine a lot of people tuned in to see if he would respond — and, smartly, he did not.

[rcrngroup]

Dick Cheney has always been a decent man and strong conservative. And he’s always the smartest guy in the room.

Cheney is doing what Bush couldn’t do in eight years and now refuses to do, what the Republican congressional “leadership” is too scared to do - he’s taking the liberals head on and articulating the principles he followed and we still need to follow to win the war on terror. God bless him.

WELL WORTH REPEATING!

President B. HUSSEIN Obama was a splash with the press last evening. They seemed to like HUSSEN’S jokes and he even laughed at them also.
All in all everyone seemed to have a good time.
There were only two awkard moments. When this lady crossed the line and said she hoped Rush Limbaugh’s kidneys would fail. The lady called Limbaubgh a terrorist.and said he commited treason. HUSSEIN made light of the airplane that flew over New York==dead silence.

Have you built a shrine?

I tried to build a shrine to Rush but then an SUV crashed through the walls and destroyed it.

“Go f*ck yourself.” —to Sen. Patrick Leahy, during an angry exchange on the Senate floor about profiteering by Halliburton, June 25, 2004”

Ah, that was the best one by far. Wish I could have the opportunity to do the same. Love Cheney, my hero.

I only heard the first 20 mins or so of Rush as I drove to get lunch. When I heard him muse “What motivates Dick Cheney? He has all the millions he needs. He doesn’t want to run for election. He’s not hot for interns. He is not a torture freak” for the 3rd or 4th time as I pulled into a parking space back at the office, I determined that I wasn’t missing much of a show this time.

Why, because he didn't use his show to bitch about some unknown who did to him what the leftists said he did to Michael J. Fox? When others are drawing attention to it, why should he waste his breath? The news is that Obama laughed at it. That's being covered just fine.

Never had heard of her before, and hope I never do so again.

An African-American man I work with with saw a clip of the this Sykes woman on TV in the lobby of where we work. It was the dinner clip of her going off.

His comment to me was classic.

"Just what we need. Another fat mouthed sassy black woman."

I just smiled at him.

I had to look her up in Wikipedia just to find out who the heck she is:

Wanda Sykes

I see Michelle's fingerprints all over assigning this disaster a microphone.

Oh, and I love this:

Sykes was married to David Hall from 1991 to 1998.[13] In October 2008 in California she married her female partner, whom she met in 2006, and publicly came out in November at a same-sex marriage rally regarding Proposition 8 in Las Vegas that she is a lesbian and had just married.[3] She expressed her excitement over the presidential election of Barack Obama, and feeling "crushed" after the passage of Proposition 8, forbidding marriages of same-sex couples in California.[3][14] She has continued to be active in same-sex marriage issues hosting events and emceeing fundraisers.

"Rush Limbaugh said he hopes this administration fails," Ms. Sykes said. "He just wants the country to fail. To me, that's treason.

Oh, Ms. Sykes (rhymes with...), your first premise doesn't lead to your second premise; therefore, your conclusion is faulty. This administration is not synonymous with the country. In reality, success for the administration means failure for the country. If there's treason, it's being committed by the administration. After all, Barry O and his facilitators in Congress have done more damage to the economy of the United States and the health of its people than has any Al Qaeda operative to date. Al Qaeda took down some buildings and killed several thousand people. But Barry's destroyed institutions, has funded subversive organizations with the life's blood of the country, and is planning even more devastating attacks on public health that will kill many, many times more people than Al Qaeda ever did. As Rush said, we've been waiting for the next Al Qaeda attack; maybe Obama is the next attack.

[theDentist]

Why, because he didn't use his show to bitch about some unknown...?

NO, because he repeated the same thing about Cheney for the 4th time in 20 minutes. I didn't expect he'd even mention Sykes during his show... why give her more exposure? No, asking why Cheney would do it twice is sufficient to drive his point home... four times was past redundant.

Limbaugh avoids Sykes catfight

Why would Limbaugh want to enter into a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent?

“always the smartest guy in the room?
“I had other priorities in the sixties than military service.” –Cheney on his five draft deferments, April 5, 1989
“My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.” —March 16, 2003
“Go f*ck yourself.” —to Sen. Patrick Leahy, during an angry exchange on the Senate floor about profiteering by Halliburton, June 25, 2004”

YES! I stand by what I said and your three examples noted above could be torn to shreds but right now I do not feel like giving this any more time.....maybe after my coffee my PMSing will kick in and I’ll be back. LOL

[LittleBillyInfidel]

You nailed HumbleGunner to a ‘T’.

See, this whole ‘’Humble’’ thing in his screen name is his big ‘act’. There’s nothing humble about him. He, himself, is likely a Narcissist. He is resentful in life that people have not paid attention to him - or given him the credit and high praise that he thinks is deserving of his intellect. He is likely extraordinarily jealous of Limbaugh.

I suspect he’s a loner type...probably not well-liked, or avoided at work. Likely, he listens to Rush semi-frequently and has tried to call him - but has never made it past the screener.

[blueyon]

Dear flowerplower, You’ve got kool-aid all over your lips. Draft dodging was neutralized during the administration of the “great unzipped one” during the 90’s. Do we know if Obambastic even registered when he turned 18? Will we ever know?

So, in what elementary school are you enjoying 3rd grade?

(Coool! I think I just made a split infinitive!)

This Pretending Idiot needs to leave!

[colorado tanker]

I said to him.... If it was a personal attack on Dick Cheney he can respond....

IMHO, that's just what we have here. When the Dims started talking about a DOJ investigation, possible criminal charges, star chamber congressional hearings and "truth commissions" they engaged in just that sort of personal attack on Bush, Cheney, and everyone involved in the GWOT effort. It's a declaration of war against their fellow Americans and it's time we understood we need to fight back.
