Outrage! Shock! Oh, nevermind. It’s just Rush Limbaugh.

Democrats, he said, “want to get us out of Iraq but they can’t wait to get us into Darfur.”

What he said next, however, was brazenly out of context. “There are two reasons. What color is the skin of the people in Darfur? It’s black. And who do the Democrats really need to keep voting for them? If they lose a significant percentage of this voting block, they’re in trouble.”

“The black population,” said a caller, to which Limbaugh replied, “Right.”

Perhaps he conveniently forgot the glaring differences between Iraq and Darfur or that not many Democratic politicians are in favor of sending a lot of troops there or that a lot of black voters are far more interested in how candidates are going to handle problems here than in how they’re going to handle the ones in the Sudan. Or perhaps he’s just grumpy because he was overdue for his Oxycontin fix. Either way, I see no reason to pay him any mind, except for the fact that millions of people do just that every day.

If you look up the word ‘fat’ in the Webster Dictionary, I think Rush’s picture and home address appears.
In the list of phrases that the word ‘fat’ is used in, one of them is ’sweaty fat fuck’.

I used to work with a woman who secretly listened to Rush. She would say that he’s just “entertainment” but whenever we would talk politics she would start spouting off the most ridiculous talking points that she obviously got from Rush. People take what that man says as law. It’s scary.

Ain’t nobody trying to go to Darfur. They have oil that we want and thus, we have an interest in not pissing off their criminal government.
