Anybody else catch Limbaugh's reference to DU?
The only reason I did is 'cause the transcript was posted on one of the discussion boards I post on. The Bushbots there post his transcripts all the time, and I usually just ignore them. But I did a quick look this time, as it related to Feingold, and the words "Democrat Underground" literally popped out at me. I have to admit, I haven't read the whole thing, and highlighted only the references to DU (to save others from having to read the whole thing). Looks like it was from his radio show yesterday:

~snip~

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

I want to go back to Russ Feingold because I have some points here to make about this. This thing that Feingold's done with this suggested censure -- and, boy, you ought to go to some of the Democrat blogs. It's fun, folks. Go to Democrat Underground and read these people. They are just beside themselves that the Democrats in the Senate will not go along with Feingold, that he's just a coward. It is comical. It's also, if you haven't done this before, it's eye opening to find out who these people are. I mean, it's a new breed of cat in the American political system. I am convinced it is, but it's unfolding just as I have predicted time and time again. Liberals cannot control their radical instincts. They believe that their deep hatred of the president is shared by most Americans. They look at these opinion polls and they say, "The country hates Bush! Good, we're right where we want to be, because America agrees with us."

~snip~

They don't even really care about winning. Their base just wants to feel validated in their rage. They just want to feel at home in their rage. Now, this thing that I read in The Note today, ABC's The Note, there's a quote from Howard Dean on February 9th. He was on Good Morning America. "What we don't approve of is breaking the law in order to spy on Americans. The present law is very adequate... All we ask is that this not turn, we not turn into a country like Iran, where the president of Iran can do anything they want at anytime." ABC News caught up with Howard Dean Tuesday. He was asked about this and said, (paraphrasing) "We're not going to get into that," and he was also asked about the Feingold, "We're not going to get into Feingold, we're not going to get into that now." Even Dean, who is the grand pooh-bah and the surrogate father of all these kooks out there in Kooksville, the Democrat Underground and all these -- even Dean doesn't want to get on board yet with Feingold on this. Why not, Howard? All you've said, like John Kerry and the rest of the crowd, is the president's breaking the law. You just said it in The Note, you said it on February 9th, breaking the law is almost like the president of Iran. This is very serious. He's turning this into a theocratic dictatorship like Iran, he's imperiling the Constitution, very serious. You don't have time to wait. It is too desperate. It is too serious. You can't just punt. You can't just go out there and make these claims and then retreat behind Barbara Mikulski and a food cart. You just can't do that.

87. They use 'Democrat' as a noun in the same way
some people use the phrase "that Jew lawyer."

It's a form of dehumanization- one of the key steps to getting people to do what you want them to, whatever it might be, to other people. Make people into a number, a category, some sort of "other", and you remove some of the mental roadblocks people have in front of the idea of harming others.

This is part of the 'how' of the Nazis getting otherwise good Germans to do some truly inhuman, horrific things to their 'undesireables'. It's taking a great deal longer to do that here- they've been at this for more than thirty years, after all- but now that they have actual official power, they's kind of catapulted the propaganda, and things for us have suddenly, quickly become a great deal worse.

They are not Nazis themselves, but their tactics are strikingly and frighteningly similar.

"We could have used those people." Think on that statement, cross-ref it to what I wrote above, and process.

Try not to get sick in the process.

as part of the program of talking points to turn the name into a four letter slander word.

35. My guess: It makes it harder to find DU's site ... and read the truth.
They say it/write it incorrectly for the same reason that they shout down Progressives on talk shows.
They don't want people to hear or read the truth.

55. I googled Republan and found this: G.O.P. and 'Ic'
G.O.P. and 'Ic'

Published: September 6, 1996
To the Editor:

Re '' 'Democrat' as Insult'' (letter, Sept. 2):

As you say, the insulting term ''Democrat Party'' was a device of the McCarthy period.

The ''-ic'' was amputated specifically to deny to the Democratic Party the favorable aura of the word ''democratic.''

At the time, The Democratic Digest, the organ of the Democratic Party, suggested ''Republan'' as a riposte. It is still fun to say ''Republan.''

58. Well, well. So the practice is a holdover from McCarthyism

I knew it had to have some type of sinister backstory!

I knew I had heard a similar thing somewhere, that when they say Democrat Party, that we should counter with Republan Party, but I didn't remember the source.

Not an original idea of mine, obviously.

Thanks for the research.

78. They do it on purpose. They use a noun as an adjective on purpose.
Edited on Fri Mar-17-06 12:30 PM by CottonBear
I called one of my GA congressmen's office (Jack Kingston)to complain after he said it over and over again on CSPAN one morning. I called his office and said it's not proper to use a noun as an adjective: either he's doing because he can't speak proper English or because he's being demeaning on purpose. Either reason is bad: either he's ignorant or he's mean or both.

There are quite a few Bushbots over there. They've parked themselves there to denigrate NOW, PBS, secularists, and 'commie-librals.' Actually, as much as I detest some of their posts, I have learned a lot about what they are about. And, it's scary.

But, I'm sure their presence here is less conspicuous.

Like Limbaugh would even EXIST if it weren't for rage. How badly did he push his listeners to HATE Bill Clinton.

He had such a case of Clenis envy, I thought his head would explode some days.

It's just FULL of jokes and idiots!Guess who's their hero?!? Whining John Conyers ....LAUGHING MY ASS OFF ! Here's a sample of their "reasoning"

Here's the Impeachment plan. We DO NOT want B impeached
before 2006 Elections.

Stay with me - if Bushit is impeached, Cheney is Prez. If Bushit AND Cheney are impeached, HASTERT is Prez! Talk about jumping from the frying pan into the fire!

So, we need to concentrate on the 2006 elections. If we control the House, then we have a strong, capable Dem as House Speaker. Then impeach B* and Cheney, and a smart Dem becomes a real President.

On the other hand, if we REALLY want the 2008 Presidential Election, we go ahead and impeach and let Haster drive our country further into the ground - in which case we have a landslide victory for any Dem President we run.
***********************************************

Can someone tell me where they hope to find "a smart Democrat"??? Under a rock???

Right is RIGHT.Left is WRONG.

Edited by: enya2 at: 9/12/05 12:32 am


So, I'm an idiot and subject to ridicule because "there's no such thing as a smart Democrat"? And the current Republican's in office are "smart" because.... why?

40. Yeah, I'm a radical.
I retired at 40 years old. I'm a mechanical engineer. I own a ranch on the coast of southern Oregon. I am a roofing contractor, a certified cardiopulmonary technician. I have a degree in machine tool technology. Shall I continue? Sorry to blab about my personal life, but I'm a hell of a lot more successful that Limbaugh. And I'm not radical, only a person with a normal intelligence and a tiny bit of compassion for human kind. Limbaugh is a cancer on the human society. And he knows it.

47. I checked, DemocratUnderground.com still comes to DU
He kept saying Democrat instead of Democratic. I typed in www.democratunderground.com and it still came to DU.
Why is it that these Republicans cannot discern between adjectives and nouns?

48. Re: Limbaugh's reference to DU
All you've said, like John Kerry and the rest of the crowd, is the president's breaking the law. You just said it in The Note, you said it on February 9th, breaking the law is almost like the president of Iran. This is very serious. He's turning this into a theocratic dictatorship like Iran, he's imperiling the Constitution, very serious. You don't have time to wait. It is too desperate. It is too serious. You can't just punt. You can't just go out there and make these claims and then retreat behind Barbara Mikulski and a food cart. You just can't do that.
Well, he's right. If the Democrats are going to accuse Bush of breaking the law (and he certainly did do that), then they're gutless cowards if they're not going to take it to the logical conclusion. If they're going to make the claim, well then they'd darn well better act like they believe it. Right now they just look like a bunch of hypocrites, making an accusation that they really don't believe in.

They need to put their impeachment votes where their mouths are and stake out a consistent position.

51. I hope you're calling and writing Dems in Congress to let them know how
you feel. What you've written here would make a good start. Let's light the fire under them!

52. You know, I've honestly never listened to Limbaugh. Not once.
Why would anyone take political advice from a loud-mouthed, psychopathic bigot who helped destroy the GOP and hand it to the neocons?

53. Dear Rush: I stopped listening to your program when my
country started this unprovoked war, invading a sovereign country without cause. Perhaps your hearing was in poor form (damn, that oxicontin all to hell, eh?) when your President said, "There is no evidence ..."

Your lies are blatant and bald. Please start telling the truth instead of catapulting the propoganda. How are your ratings doing, by the way? Every time you lie, one more radio gets tuned to Air America. I think your 15 minutes are soon expired, no?

SEE YA!

62. I just can't imagine Dean in a Shriner hat, much less as Grand Pooh-Bah
It's a typical American phenomenon

Where all the members have a fine old time

It's the forty-third annual convention

Of the Grand Mystic Royal Order

Of the Nobles of the Ali Baba Temple of the Shrine

Meanwhile back at the Motel

Operator, give me room three-twenty-one, please. Hello? Noble Lumpkin? This here's the 'Lustr'ous Potentate. I said it's the 'Lustr'ous Potentate. The Illustr'ous... Coy? Dad-blame it, this here's Bubba. Coy, why ain't you at the parade? What? Well, how'd you get that big Harley up there in your room? What? I cain't hear ya, Coy, quit revvin' it up, boy. Turn it off. I just want you to know one thing. You have embarr'ssed us all, the whole Hahira delegation. Now, I'll see you at the banquet, son, and you be there, Coy, you hear me? Black tie, seb'n o'clock. Be there, Coy. And Coy, don't answer the phone Uddn'uddn.

Well, it was all arranged by the ladies' auxiliary

In the downtown convention hall

Cold roast beef, string beans, mashed potatoes

And nine boring speeches in all

And all the tables looked fine with their Mogan David wine

And chrysanthemums on each side

And the Hahira leaders in their rented tuxedos

Made the local heart swell with pride

{Refrain}

Meanwhile back at the Motel

Operator? Three-twenty-one, please. Thank you. Hello, Coy, what are you doin'? Whaddaya mean, who is this. This is Bubba. Why wasn't you at the banquet? Whaddaya mean, all you had to wear was a Ha-waiian flowerdy shirt? Well, you may think you're foolin' some people, but I know what's goin' on. Everybody's seen the little red-head. 'At's right, ever'body. Why, she come runnin' through the dinner, right in the middle of the pineapple sherbert. Didn't have nothin' on but yer fez, Coy. Coy, you the only one's got a fez with a propeller on top. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, and she's yellin' out the secret code, too, Coy. We goin' have to change it now. Dad blame it, Coy, we goin' have to have a special meetin' we get to Hahira, about yer conduct at this here convention. Embarr'ssing. Now Coy, you be at the secret conclave tonight, you hear me? And keep it a secret. Hoo!

Well, it was a secret meeting in the dead of the night

With mysterious sanctimony

In accordance with prescribed rituals

A time-honored ceremony

Matters of grave concern were weighed with dedicated caution

Like whether or not to raise at stud

Or draw at spit-in-the-ocean

{Refrain}

Meanwhile back at the Motel

Operator, room three-twenty-... H-how'd you know? Oh. Hello, Coy? Where h-have you been? No-o-o, you wasn't at the meeting. Well, I found out that at three o'clock this morning you's out there in your fruit-of-the looms in the motel swimmin' pool, bunch o' them waitresses from the cocktail hour. Huh, I just hope Charlene don't find out about this, Coy. What? Well, how'd you get that big motorsickle up there on the high dive, Coy? Now Coy, dad burnit, that ain't no way to act. We s'posed to be pillars of the community. 'N we get back to Hahira, you can just turn in your ring, and your tie-tack. 'Cause Coy, you are out of the Shrine. You goin' be blackballed, Coy. 'At's right, you may have t' pack yer bags and leave town. What do you mean, you might join the Hell's Angels? Coy, hoo, don't you hang up on me. No, don't you crank that motorsickle. Who's that gigglin' in the background, Coy? Hello? Hello? Operator, we's cut off. Yeah, room three-twenty-one. Coy???

Quote:
"They believe that their deep hatred of the president is shared by most Americans."

Well, wherever would we get an idea like that?



I guess Rush really told us!
Don't we all feel silly now?

66. I haven't listened to Rush in years
the man has no qualifications to comment on anything and has nothing of interest to say. He's another wingnut who does nothing productive in this world and whose morals only reflect the depth of the culture of corruption inherent in the Republican Party.

And if he thinks the people aren't catching on, when was the last time you saw a "dittohead" sticker on a vehicle? He's passe. . .a relic.

67. We must be scaring little Limpy Balls
Edited on Fri Mar-17-06 09:19 AM by buddyhollysghost
He must realize we are turning hearts and minds over to the light side, while he pops another handful of pills and perches on his lard ass and spews that vomit he calls commentary.

Poor little Limpy. That giant sucking sound he hears are his ratings plummeting as more and more people realize that he has led them down the primrose path to hell.

Must really bite to be a fatass addict no one can stand to be around.

Call Jeff Gannon, RushBoy! I bet he can make it all better :rofl:

68. the butt of jokes
"Rush Limbaugh is now in rehabilitation and it's going well. It's interesting, one minute you're Rush Limbaugh, great conservative radio talk show host, and the next day you're standing in line with other patients waiting for Darryl Strawberry's autograph." —David Letterman

"Pretty ironic, that the only Republican with a prescription drug plan is Rush Limbaugh. Actually today Rush said he would have no comment on his drug problem until he could figure out a way to blame it on the Clintons." —Jay Leno

"After a week of speculation in the press, Rush Limbaugh admitted that he is addicted to pain killers and I'm sorry to say, hoagies. Limbaugh blames his addiction on a botched back operation and lesbians." —Tina Fey, "Saturday Night Live"

Hi, arse-licking butt-boys! And I say "boys" because we all know how what Rush's opinion of women is.

Enjoying working for a megalomaniacal drug-abuser?

Does it pay well? I sure hope so.

If anyone on the right thinks we need our rage validated, then they are a blithering idiot. All one need do is pay attention for a month and will see that not only is the rage valid, but the reasons are numerous and manifest.

(There's a couple words there Oxyboy will need his staff to look up for him.)

Hey, Rusty, when I was poor and living in a trailer, I listened to you. Then I took a LONG look at that cargo-cult theology you were expounding, and you know what, Drug-boy?

I figured out that the continued health of the Moneyed Classes (like you) depends on a mass of pliant poor people who still believe in this Horatio Alger-"American Dream" MYTH you guys shovel out.

Fuck dat. Clean your OWN toilet, rich boy who can't keep a woman any better than me.
