What Rush did to a 13 year old girl.
On one episode of his failed 1990's television program, Rush announced that he was going to show a picture of the White House dog (Clinton White House) and viewers were shown a picture of 13-year-old Chelsea Clinton.

Anyone who knows anything about 13-year-old girls knows that it is a miracle that this did not destroy this innocent girl. She must have had some amazing parenting to survive it and she has turned out to be a fine young woman.

Rush Limbaugh is evil and can hide the evil on radio, but not on television. That's why he never lasts long on that medium.

1. Despite his best efforts, she survived...
Graduated from college with honors, was a Rhodes scholar and landed a high level job for over $100,000 a year and never was arrested--unlike the current White House resident and his slutty daughters.

16. And of course her parents' connections had NOTHING to do

with her successes or her privilege.

I'm glad she got things to offset some of the sliming she got from the likes of Limbic, but let's not pretend that she hasn't benefited as well as suffered for who her parents are.

2. I always remember that incident...
..whenever I hear someone say that people should refrain from attacking Rush because drug addiction is a disease and we shouldn't mock someone who suffers from it. Rush mocked children. Over their looks (or lack thereof). He did it on national television and he did it with glee. This disgusting man deserves no mercy. Not from us. Not from anyone. Ever.

3. Fucking Hypacrit!!!
I listen to his garbage some mornings just for laughs, WLS Chicago, and heard him months ago saying that drugs are very bad and people who use them should be locked away in prison.
His show is so pathetic, it's comical!

4. This was bad

I can't believe anyone would use this type of attack.

Ever hear the story about Rush and Hillary at the same place, a party or something. Rush actually apologized to her. BUT, didn't go onto his show to say he was a classless piece of snail shit for his attacks on Chelsea.

At the end of the day Rush was just a big pussy.

7. Well, that explains it!
According to the WP, Bush just called Rush a great American. That's something W would do!

8. As a woman who was a homely 13 year old,I'm still not that hot
come to think of it,I will not forget or forgive that putrid slimeball for what he did.

She is a lovely young woman now,both internally and externally, and I too credit Hillary and Bill for having the ability to teach her that what you are is so much more important than how you look.

10. That was disgusting.
I listened to all the smearing of the Clintons for eight years, and figured it's all part of the game.

But slamming Chelsea, and they did it all the time, was just so sick and revolting. Just plain wrong on so many levels.

It pisses me even more that so many peeps put up with it. Even agreed. At least some old-time Republicans I know thought it was a low blow. But it didn't change their politics.

Which of them will stand up now and compare Chelsea with any Bush daughter?

Of course not. Family values my rosy red ass.

11. Rush is like a cockroach. Turn on the kitchen light...
... and he scurries into a dark corner.

Hey, Pigboy! You can run but you can't hide.

12. I'm reading Hillary's book and I love some of the stories
Bill insisted on teaching Chelsea to drive. Hillary alludes to it not being a happy experience. Bill and Hillary also moved Chelsea into the dorms. I mean carry the boxes in and take apart bunks to re-position furniture. They did a terrific job and refused to succumb to priviledge but acted like parents. I hope they are very proud.

13. Kick for lurking freepers.
My own sister tried to commit suicide when she was 13 because my brothers teased her about being fat.

That's why what Rush did was like a knife in my heart.

14. As Mike Malloy says....
.... "you want compassion, show compassion".

I try not to worry about folks like Rush too much, the universe always takes care of them in its own good time.

15. Who's up for pissing on his grave. All those pain killers must be playing
havoc with his liver. We could rent a Bus & make a day of it.

He deserves so much more & nothing less.
