A letter to Rush Limbaugh regarding today's radio broadcast

Radio broadcast: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/09/limbaugh-on-obama-nobel-p_n_315661.html

My letter:



mailto:ElRushbo@eibnet.com

Mr. Limbaugh:

On your show this morning, you said "We all agree with the Taliban about...we all are on the same side as the Taliban."

I do not agree with you, with your perceived alliance with the Taliban, or with your flailing, daisycutting rhetoric referring to the President of the United States.

You are acting as a clown, a blustering Pantaloon, a roaring fool, and your impressive voice sounds more like Daffy Duck every day, may Mel Blanc rest in peace.

I hope your narcotic addiction abates, and that you are able to receive God's grace. When you do, remember that you must not only repent in words, but in deeds.

May God bless you with peace,

John Schmidt

You go, John! That man's opinions revolt me to the very core of my being.

edit: I keep wanting to say, "Who is WE?" to him. WE certainly does not include me, or anyone close to me!

Oh my. For some reason I cannot hear that letter in your voice, it sounds so different from the way you talk normally. That said, Limbaugh is an idiot, and and idiot who is rewarded for being an outrageous twit.

Also given the combo of his own past drug addiction and his indication that everyone else should be locked up for drug use, he's a typical but-I'm-an-exception asshole. These are the folks who go back to the abortion clinic picket line the weekend after they have an abortion. "But I'm different, you wouldn't understand."

That's in my preaching voice.

You haven't had a chance to hear it yet. :)

I refer to that as "rules are for *other* people" :-)

I avoid listening to the bombastic fool. Siding with the Taliban is over the top, even for him!

Good for you.
