I still think it's real funny that he pointed out that his rear end was shrinking while he was spewing bile at that  liberal It also still strikes me as funny that Limbaugh can't think to conceive of someone having the opinion of 'Bush throwing us into war in the Middle East was not a prudent fiscal decision' and not be a commie liberal SOB.  The caller isn't real, it was all a false flag to throw meat to his true believer listening base

Mark Levin was doing some schooling on climate change tonight. It turns out that plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis so "how can it possibly be a bad thing?" and that Mars is just Earth minus the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and we would be just like Mars if not for that fact. It genuinely felt like a rant Master Shake would go on in an episode of ATHF.

Its a comic from the end of the nineties, which still captures todays Limbaugh pretty well. I feel its relevant to the people asking "has it always been this bad?". I enjoyed it, tough its a bit far out. Some previews:

In 1993, Rush Limbaugh went on the Letterman show. It did not go well for him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJpebtIXROw Note 1) Limbaugh's pathetic efforts to lick Dave's shoes for the first two minutes of the interview, 2) the completely effortless way that Letterman utterly destroys Limbaugh with a couple of offhand sentences, 3) the way Limbaugh responds by gasping like a fish that has just been pulled onto a pier. Limbaugh has pretty much refused to appear before an unfriendly or neutral audience, or give interviews to any but the most sympathetic interviewers for the last twenty years, and this Letterman appearance is exactly why.

FMguru posted:In 1993, Rush Limbaugh went on the Letterman show. I love the part where he says, "The Republican party has squandered the legacy given to them by Reagan in the 1980s and now it's trying to put it all back together. There's not a single set of beliefs, ideals, visions that anybody can rally around in the Republican party." I guess they settled on attacking presidential scandals and shutting down the government over budget silliness. Thinking back, it's hard to believe it's really been 20 years of this.

My sister went off to school downstate (Illinois) and she comes back to my parents' place for the summer, and I guess her sorority and all the good ol boys at U of I turned her conservative, because I hear this poo poo come on her laptop. It's a typical country song, except almost every verse is gently caress YOU LIBERALS. I like how the refrain implies that liberals don't care about their families, don't register for the draft, and don't beat their children (eh I can live with that one). It starts off a nice little ditty about fishing, and gets nasty and indignant quick. Are there many of these songs? If so, definitely a subset of right-wing media.quote:Put me on a mountain, way back in the backwoods

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montgomery_Gentry Real Americans. Oh, just for contrast with an actual Real American: quote:The name Teddy Bear comes from former United States President Theodore Roosevelt, who was commonly known as "Teddy" (though he loathed being referred to as such[3]). The name originated from an incident on a bear hunting trip in Mississippi in November 1902, to which Roosevelt was invited by Mississippi Governor Andrew H. Longino. There were several other hunters competing, and most of them had already killed an animal. A suite of Roosevelt's attendants, led by Holt Collier,[4] cornered, clubbed, and tied an American Black Bear to a willow tree after a long exhausting chase with hounds. They called Roosevelt to the site and suggested that he should shoot it. He refused to shoot the bear himself, deeming this unsportsmanlike, but instructed that the bear be killed to put it out of its misery,[5][6] and it became the topic of a political cartoon by Clifford Berryman in The Washington Post on November 16, 1902.[7] While the initial cartoon of an adult black bear lassoed by a handler and a disgusted Roosevelt had symbolic overtones, later issues of that and other Berryman cartoons made the bear smaller and cuter.[8] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teddy_bear

Most of today's country "artists" are, in fact, suburban idiot shitlords who bought a 10-gallon hat, a belt buckle, and some boots from the nearest Stein Mart, picked up an F-250 from the Ford dealership, and decided that was enough to qualify as "country" even if they'd never been more than 5 miles from the nearest Wal-Mart in their entire wasted life. If I ever make a country music video, it will involve Waylon Jennings' re-animated amputated legs repeatedly kicking people like Montgomery Gentry in the rear end and stepping on their hats.

I'm from louisiana and now live in MS - trust me, 'country' people stick out. One of my friends goes hog and bird hunting at random times because the gear's just always in the back of his pickup. He uses a bow and arrow. And I've known cajuns who you couldn't label as civilized if you tried - motherfuckers that have literally wrestled alligators not-for-fun. I want these types of people to write us some god drat country songs.

I thought being country ideally meant working with your hands, drinking lovely beer and listening to awful music, driving a truck and voting Republican. I doubt it still has anything to do with having a connection to the land. The guys I know who can handle themselves in the backcountry are the most left ones I know because they despise development. They are also utterly unfamiliar with the concept of taking a vehicle off-roading, because that's not real camping. I don't know how much backcountry remains in the south, but I do know that practically the entire northern half of Georgia is functionally a suburb of Atlanta. Suburbanized folk are probably more disconnected from the land than urbanized people, because city-dwellers can tell the difference between a human settlement and a mountain.

Yeah, I am a long time Folk fan from a rural area and this psuedo-country stuff always strikes me as insultingly performative. Hell, country music used to be pro-Union blue collar poo poo kicking music. Utah Phillips and Guthrie. Give me Townes Van Zandt any day.

I always thought UIUC was a relatively liberal college, given its amazing tech departments, but I think the college of business bleeds out over the rest of campus. I hear the same 1980's econ talking points from all of my friends that went to UIUC. But, hey, at least she went to a good school. I went to EIU and I think maybe 5% of the students can name all three branches of US government.

FMguru posted:In 1993, Rush Limbaugh went on the Letterman show. There's a really interesting bit about 5 minutes in where Rush goes on about how Clinton "wasn't elected" because he only got 43% of the vote, of course neglecting to mention that a third party candidate got nearly 20% pretty much ensuring there'd be no way anyone could get more than 45%. That was the beginning of this idea among Republicans that any Democratic president is illegitimate, winning office through some sort of chicanery. It started out purely as a way to oppose Clinton by attempting to deligitimize his presidency, but it morphed into this general concept that only Republicans have any right to govern, which we saw take its inevitable racial turn when Obama was elected, and of course there's no end of irony that the birther thing originated from Hillary's campaign (namely Mark Penn), given Republicans spent her husband's entire presidency leveling the same kind of accusations. Whoever the nominee is in 2016 and should they win, they'll face the same nonsense over their somehow not being the legitimate president as well.
