She/He meant listen, even I could figure that out.

Oh maybe you couldn't, tsk tsk you are a
Rush fan.

Rush doesn't have to prove anything, right?

He is helping me sell this bridge to folks.
He is holding the papers for the bridge I want to sell ya so you trust him and I will take the money and he will give you the papers via his show.

If you believe him, you can't possibly see anything wrong with a bridge for sell.

How is that bigoted? That's what has been done with the gene for Down Syndrome. That's what they are trying to do with the gene for autism. What he's saying is the LOGICAL conclusion to finding the gay gene.

I meant to say listen, but happy I was able to give you a laugh.

Rush Limbaugh is independently proven to be right 99% of the time. You aren't. You don't care if you are wrong, in this thread, you are reveling in it. You love the attention you get when you say something so incredibly stupid and wrong that people have to respond. I know you. There are millions just like you all over the internet.

That is just sick and you agree with it????


Okay I cannot address you anymore.

I will get kicked off of this site.

You are not right at all, I suggest therapy.

Bigot

I would say maybe you should look up the definition but who know's what you would come up with.

bigot (plural bigots)

1.one who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices
2.one who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

So I guess we all could fall into that category.

Even your beloved Obama.

Right only if the people listening don't care to research it.

He is a sick bigoted, sorry excuse for a human that doesn't deserve the time of day from any decent human.....oh maybe he doesn't have that problem????

OH ya I always love it when the religious justify hurting feelings for their own good. Please.... Rush didn't need to be called a racist to lose this opportunity, he just needed to say dumbA$$ things to the wrong people. So what, Rush is a martyr now? I bet Beck is too then, huh?

Rush isn't supporting the abortion of homosexual children! He opposes all abortions. It's sick to abort a child. Period.

Dragoness, you really really need to read a bit deeper into these things. You get so angry and worked up that you skim and don't understand what is being said.

I have to leave this thread now.

I am totally disgusted now.

Someone who is offended by Rush because he "hurts people's feelings" is being sarcastic and mocking...is it ironic, hilarious or both?

Sorry I am getting pretty tired now, you lost me. Since when does Rush care who's feelings he hurts? Of course the people that love Rush aren't going to be offended by his words, he just spews the words they'd like to say themselves if they had an audience.

And Rush doesn't know much about the gay community if he thinks that anyway. But he sure knows what religious community likes to hear and it doesn't need to make a lot of sense, just be in line with the rethoric.

St. Louis is so happy that he's not buying our Rams.

Rush has proved himself to be a racist and it cost him the Rams.

Rush Limbaugh dropped from bid for St. Louis Rams
BY JIM THOMAS jthomas@post-dispatch.com

10/15/2009

Rush Limbaugh, the conservative radio talk show host, was dropped Wednesday as a limited partner from a group led by Dave Checketts in a bid to purchase the St. Louis Rams football team.

Checketts, the owner of the St. Louis Blues hockey team, said that Limbaugh had "become a complication and a distraction" in the group's pursuit of the Rams.

Without Limbaugh, the Checketts' group enhanced its status, NFL sources said Wednesday. "Now Checketts can have a restart on this thing and he can clean it up," said a league source familiar with the potential sale of the team. "This makes the Checketts group more competitive … it probably puts them in the top three (bidders)."

The Checketts group is the only bidder to have been publicly identified so far. As many as six groups have placed bids.

"Rush was to be a limited partner — as such, he would have had no say in the direction of the club or in any decisions regarding personnel or operations," Checketts said in a statement. "This was a role he enthusiastically embraced. However, it has become clear that his involvement in our group has become a complication and a distraction to our intentions, endangering our bid to keep the team in St. Louis. As such, we have decided to move forward without him."

The exact makeup and breakdown of Checketts' ownership group remains unknown, not just to the public but to the NFL and the Rams. But sources familiar with the group said they did not anticipate any problems replacing Limbaugh's potential investment in the team.

Limbaugh has been aligned with the Checketts bid for a couple of months, league sources said, but it didn't become public knowledge until last week. The reaction was quick and heated, jump-started by NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith, who urged players throughout the league to speak out against the inclusion of Limbaugh in the potential Rams ownership group.

Privately, several Rams players also complained about Limbaugh as a potential team owner. On Wednesday, hours before the decision to drop Limbaugh was announced, Rams cornerback Ron Bartell spoke out publicly.

"It's a free country," Bartell said. "When you come out and make statements like he's made in the past, it's definitely ruffled some feathers."

In 2003, Limbaugh was dropped from ESPN after he said in reference to Philadelphia quarterback Donovan McNabb: "I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well."

In 2007, according to transcripts on his website, Limbaugh said, "The NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips, without any weapons. There, I said it."

In a league where about two-thirds of the players are black, such comments didn't play well.

On Tuesday, when Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay said he would vote against any ownership group that included Limbaugh, and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell spoke critically of what he called Limbaugh's divisive comments of the past, the talk show host's future as an NFL owner appeared doomed.

Nonetheless, Limbaugh was defiant Wednesday on his radio show. "This is not about the National Football League," he said. "It's not about the St. Louis Rams. … This is the latest in a long line of attempts by the left to discredit any of us who believe what we believe. I'm not even thinking of exiting (the Rams group). I'm not even thinking of caving. I am not a caver."

A league source said Limbaugh was "very unhappy" when informed he was being dropped from the bid. Neither Limbaugh nor Rams owner Chip Rosenbloom could be reached for comment.

The prospect of Limbaugh owning a slice of the Rams ignited a debate at St. Louis City Hall, where many of the elected officials hold views opposite to the radio host — but also don't want to see the team leave.

Alderman Antonio French, a Democrat, authored a resolution urging the Rams to reject any bid with Limbaugh as an investor. But another alderman, Matt Villa, said "if he's willing to be a minority owner and invest some money to keep the team here, it's not going to bother me."

Controversy this week also has stemmed from a quote attributed to Limbaugh about the merits of slavery in the 2006 book "101 People Who are Really Screwing America" by Jack Huberman. The book did not give details about the origin of the quote. Limbaugh says he did not make that statement, which was cited in a Bryan Burwell column in the Post-Dispatch and other media outlets. Huberman said Wednesday that he had a source for the quote but declined to reveal it on advice of counsel.

Rush isn't happy about this. He's from Missouri and he can't buy the St. Louis Rams because he's a racist.

Black NFL players are saying that, considering Limbaugh's history of racism, they would refuse to play for the Rams if he became an owner. Think Progress gives us a short history of his racist remarks, starting most notably with his comment about Donovan McNabb and including his opinions about two black kids beating up a white kid on a Belleville school bus:

Indeed, as CNN reported at the time, ESPN fired Limbaugh from Sunday NFL Countdown for "his statement that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed." But, of course, Limbaugh has a long sordid history with making racist remarks. Some of his more recent lowlights:

* "Look, let me put it to you this way: The NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it."
* "We need segregated buses. ... This is Obama's America."
* "President Obama is black. And I think he's got a chip on his shoulder."
* Democrats are interested in Darfur to secure black "voting bloc."
* "Minorities never do anything for which they have to apologize."
* Obama's nomination for president "goes back to the fact that nobody had the guts to stand up and say no to a black guy."
* Obama is a "halfrican-American."

Advising the NFL to block Limbaugh's pursuit of an NFL franchise, St. Louis Dispatch sports columnist Bryan Burwell wrote recently, "Dancing with Limbaugh is like dancing with a snake. Eventually, the snake will bite you. That's his nature."

He's right 99% of the time?!

Aren't celebrity owners more or less just there to look pretty? Like how J. Lo and the Williams sisters "own" the Miami Dolphins. So if Rush did become a part owner, he wouldn't have any say about anything?

BTW I use the term "celebrity" loosely.
