Basically; the Dems tried to pull a political stunt, it backfired on them big time. Then they tried to claim that was their plan all along, but they were exposed by Rush.
Can you explain?
He can't, because none of it is true. Rush pulled a swift poltical move to cover up his bashing of our troops in Iraq, whom he called "phony soldiers" for being against the war. Reid (stupidly) tried to liken it to the MoveOn ad, which was worse by comparison. Limaugh then claims later that he was referring to a single soldier that was against the war who was in fact a phony soldier (never fully served). Of course, if that were actually what he meant, why didn't Limbaugh say phony soldier instead of phoney soldier
s? His entire demeanor and everything he has said since the war began leave little doubt this fool actually believes that dissent or criticism of the war is in fact unpatriotic.
Limbaugh is just one of many examples of the radio commandos you hear nowadays, but when push comes to shove he's really just a chickenhawk draft dodger.
Evan,
You are surely entitled to your opinion....but I have to completely disagree. I am a huge fan of Rush, and though I do not know the basics of this Reid thing, I can assure you Rush means well......and when he said "phony soldiers" - well, I sure there are more than just this single "phony soldier" he was referring to. Rush knows his shit, and does NOT dodge anything. When he messes up, he admit's it, explains it, and does his best to recover. However, like many democrats, a lot of people makes mistakes and tend to say "fuck off" when they are asked to explain their faults.
Sounds to me like you have a beef with Rush....and now I have a beef with you.
Boy you sure trapped him. Pretending to not know anything while two posts later declaring yourself a "huge fan of Rush".
Evan was right. Rush's McBeth CYA moment did not happen in the same segment. He pulled it out after a commercial break. Reid and the rest of the Dems were stupid enough to try to one-up the Repubs when it comes to feigning outrage and they sure were shown the business end of pretending to be appalled by the masters (kinda like your pretending to be uninformed about this topic when you immediately thereafter admit that you are trying to sabotage the debate). And why use the plural version of the word soldier instead of the singular if he were speaking directly of MacBeth?
For your listening pleasure and the rest of our listening torture:
The actual clip UNEDITED including the sounds Rush stuffing his face
Rush calling Paul Hackett a "staff puke" and claiming he went to Iraq to pad his resume for a Congressional campaign run
Oh, and to prove that he didn't say what he said....Rush provided an EDITED clip:
During the September 28 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, in response to Media Matters for America's documentation of his recent description of service members who advocate U.S. withdrawal from Iraq as "phony soldiers," Rush Limbaugh claimed that he had not been talking "about the anti-war movement generally," but rather "about one soldier ... Jesse MacBeth." Limbaugh further asserted that "Media Matters had the transcript, but they selectively choose what they want to make their point." To support this claim, Limbaugh purported to air the "entire" segment in question from the September 26 broadcast of his show. In fact, the clip he then aired had been edited. Excised from the clip was a full 1 minute and 35 seconds of the 1 minute and 50 second discussion that occurred between Limbaugh's original "phony soldiers" comment and his reference to MacBeth, the full audio of which can be heard here .
just admit that your hero is a political tool that is of no good to society who was able to play his game better than Reid and we can all move on.
Based upon your AT name....I couldnt explain to you how to wipe your own ass.....no reason to waste my time on you.
Since you are a Noob (and a "huge fan of Rush"), I will carefully explain...I just hope that I can type slow enough for you to understand....
I am an independent whose name is not derived or based on anything political. I like to question things philosophically which is where the handle comes from. My questioning the world to find out:
"How do we truly know what we perceive as right is right and what we perceive as wrong is wrong?"
Now, back on topic Noob....
Admit that your hero is a blight on society and got caught being the asshat that he is but was still able to play the "I'm so outraged that anyone would take what I said to mean what I said and here is a doctored tape as proof" game better than Reid so that we can move on.
But don't worry, you can still go back to listening to him afterwards. You obviously don't have the mental capacity from your posts in this thread to do much critical thinking or forming your own opinions. You need him as much as he needs dolts like you.
