Rush: Have I ever apologized? No. I stuff it down Dems' throats.
From today's show, talking about Pete Stark:

Rush: He did apologize. He apologized to his colleagues. He apologized to the president. Now, look what happened? In all these dust-ups you've got apologizing -- and he should have. They were on the verge of a censure motion in the House of Representatives against him for what he said, so he apologizes. Have I apologized, ladies and gentlemen? No. Have I backtracked from anything I have ever said? Have I backtracked from the Michael J. Fox controversy? Have I backtracked from the Donovan McNabb controversy? Have I backtracked? Hell, backtracked? I moved forward and stuffed it back on their throats here on the smear letter from Dingy Harry. They backtracked on the General Petraeus ad. They agreed to condemn, the Democrats did, on both the Senate and the House floors. For everybody who thinks they are out there ruling the roost and running the show, folks, they are embarrassing themselves each and every day. It's starting to catch up with them. http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_102307/content/01125110.guest.html

3. Here he's trying to deny that he serves as a cat's paw for the Republicans.
His job is pretty much to say the inflammatory or credulous things that the politicians can't. The comparison is apples to oranges.

4. He is RIGHT
He is laughing at the democrats acting like a bunch of pussies just like he KNEW THEY WOULD.

Golly, I'm so glad we cared so much about what repukes think of us.

Because it gives them such a good laugh when we do.

5. There you have
what apologizing gets the Dem's but for some reason it doesn't seem to bother them as much as it does some of us.

7. Well, he *does* have episodes of extreme self-pity when he gets caught
Like when the drug bust happened and he wailed, "I'm ........ DEAF!!!1" Or when charges were filed, and he said, "LET them get me, let them march me in handcuffs...." (paraphrases).

8. "I took illegal drugs by the score, and did I apologize for that? No!"
"I had my doctor write a note alleging my anal fissures would keep me from being a good soldier in viet nam. And did I apologize for sending some other poor bloke in my stead? No! And my pinheaded fans still fall in line to kiss my mighty ass."

15. What I found most entertaining...
Is how he talks about going on his show and really sticking it to his detractors. What a dipshit. That's like me coming home and really letting my boss have it from the comfort of my couch.

17. Why does our side always apologize ?
Right or wrong, caving in on issues like this does not show strength of character. And the people of Middle America don't respect vacillators.

10. Allow me to apologize...
Edited on Tue Oct-23-07 06:07 PM by Contrary1
I'm sorry. Sorry you are such an arrogant asshole. I'm sorry you are still a whore, oh; excuse me "carrying water" for the Repukes.

I apologize to all the "phony soldiers" who are risking their lives in a war they don't necessarily agree with, that you slandered. I'm real sorry about the boil on your ass that kept you from experiencing first hand what you and your ilk are so willing to send others to do.

I am sorry that you were "addicted" to the pain pills your numerous physicians willingly provided, when so many of your fellow citizens cannot even afford to even see a doctor, let alone buy the drugs they need.

I could go on and on, but let me close with one more...

I'm especially sorry that on that April evening back in 1950, your mother didn't simply roll over and say; "Not tonight, I have a headache".

13. Comedian Rush is proud that he has never apologized for any idiotic thing he's ever said
when the truth is, he should be deeply ashamed.

I can't wait to see what Keith Olbermann makes of this. This one might just snag him another Worst Person in the World gold medal.

16. Apologizing is something Democrats do
The Repiglicans understand bully politics. We understand "victim" politics.

We apologize even when we speak the truth.

To this day, our "Chablis and Brie" party leadership in the Congress doesn't understand how to deal with a bully. These thugs don't WANT to sing "Kum-by-yah" with you, Mrs. Pelosi! They want to put their fist in your face.

Sometimes, Nancy, you have to put your fist in theirs, first. If you EVER begin to understand that, you'll begin to be a real Speaker.
