This is another one of those easy ones. It feels cheap because it’s it’s so goddamn obvious. Still, I’m happy to run with it because Rush Hudson Limbaugh is easily the biggest asshole ever to grace American media.
I have referred to him affectionately as "The Human Shitsmear" for years. Picture the amber stain in your white Calvins or if you go commando, that faint greasy brown swath up the back of your jeans that inspires you to turn them inside out before laundering them. Rush Limbaugh. Human Shitsmear. He lies, without shame, without conscience and without ever being held accountable. He lies.
Lying and the art thereof, falls under the purview of morality, as opposed to the ethical, as it does and should when done under oath. Much to my chagrin, I have trouble recognizing a distinction. It’s only a bad thing when you lie after promising not to? Anyway, Rush Hudson Limbaugh is a world champion fabulist.
I listen to him. I honestly do. This Sunday morning, the local station recaps his blunderbuss of bullshit for the weekends, I heard him say that 43% of the stimulus has been spent and the democratic party will be using the rest of the money for their re-election campaigns in the fall. He actually said that. I heard him say it.
That’s complete crap and he knows it.
He lies.
I have plenty to say about the Human Shitsmear.
I love the audacity of his branding himself "The EIB, (Excellence In Broadcasting) network. Him and his gold plated EV RE20 microphone. He is exceptionally adept at what he does. He has talent. Nevermind that his talent is wasted on the hopelessly stupid. As an ad libber he is unparalleled. Extraordinaire. He makes it up as he goes with such conviction that the dumb, slack jawed, great unwashed can’t help but believe him. He lies. He said that Obama had not met with the head of BP, Tony Hayward because Hayward was white. I heard him say that too. He’s a pompous, sociopathic fathead that stops just short of buying his own pant load of poisonous, odoriferous, runny Hormel excrete...(my apologies to Hormel).
The bile he spews everyday is racist, bigoted, chauvinist, homophobic, hypocritical, self aggrandizing flatulence. He cloaks himself in jingoism. He wraps himself in an American flag so moth eaten and full of holes, it would be unrecognizable to any thinking, aware, compassionate human being. He has repeatedly maligned celebrities for succumbing to addiction when he himself cultivated such an advanced enslavement to OxyContin that he nearly lost his hearing and recruited his own household help to acquire it. He pimped his servants for the purpose of acquiring drugs. He pimped his doctors.
"Kurt Cobain was, ladies and gentlemen, a worthless shred of human debris."
"Columbus saved the Indians from themselves."
To a black caller: "Take that bone out of your nose and call me back."
"He is exaggerating the effects of the disease. He’s moving all around and shaking and it’s purely an act... This is really shameless of Michael J. Fox. Either he didn’t take his medication or he’s acting."

I call him The Human Shitsmear. Beause he Lies.
He’s been doing it for decades: http://www.fair.org/...
Or check out "Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot" by the lovely Al Franken.
Morally and ethically bereft.
See, his core message is that Obama’s agenda is to destroy America. Whether it’s retribution for slavery or because he’s some nightmare Muslim, communist, terrorist. Whatever sticks, it doesn’t matter. Now I disagree with my President on a myriad of things but I do believe he’s one earnest man. He does his best. And Rush Hudson, "The Human Shitsmear" Limbaugh, is a goddamn dirty lying bastard. Obama is not on this earth to destroy this country. That’s a fucking lie and and this fat irresponsible prick knows it.
See, what really chaps my ass is that I somehow own that he knows exactly what he’s doing. Fooling some of the people all of the time. Disgusting.
If you listen to this guy and you believe a single word he says, you’re an idiot. A lost cause. I’m not talking to you and I’m not writing this for your benefit. You are proof of the 1/4 paradigm. Common sense and logic are lost on you. The 1/4 paradigm are those that still supported Nixon after he was forced to resign. The 25% percent who still believed in the idiot Dumbya when he left office and the rest of us in a shitstorm. You people are incurably stupid. You still think Jesus Christ will be here to save you personally before you die. I’m not talking to you. As far as I’m concerned, you people are worthless human stains who’s only potential contribution to anything at all would be polluting the gene pool.
And you do. You reproduce without thought and it really worries me. A whole ‘nother round headed generation of thick tongued, uneducated, bible thumping backward ass morons.
This is all been great fun. I’d debate the slow eyed prick bastard any day of the week. Seriously, at a moments notice I’d take him on, and if were allowed to talk, I’d destroy him. I would wipe the airwaves with him and I’m by no means an exception. Just about any one of the 95% percent of Americans that don’t listen to him could acquit themselves quite nicely if given the opportunity. We all know that’s not going to happen; callers with an opposing point of view on the "EIB" network are about as common as OxyContin addicts in the mesozoic era.
But the point is this. He’s dangerous. Because of him and egregious assholes of his ilk, we have a bunch of mouth breathing idiots walking around calling themselves the Tea Party. We have Sharron Angle and Rand Paul and a growing number of oxygen starved brains that are willing to resort to violence because of an ideology that they haven’t the capacity to even grasp. Forgive them for they know not what they do? Fuck that! These fuckers are retarded and the Human Shitsmear makes a living by exploiting and emboldening them.
Here’s the deal and the devil at the same time. He wins because the rest of us pay too much attention. The most logical course of action with a stalker or any brand of sociopath, is to ignore. Any attention afforded only fuels the fire. I love Olbermann and Ed Schultz et al. but, Rush Limbaugh is a fuckhead and so are the people who follow him. Write those goofcocks off. No way any hearts or minds or going to be changed there. They are the mentally handicapped. Unable or unwilling to think for themselves and all too inclined to let a semi clever reptile do what they honor as the intellectual heavy lifting. They will listen and follow and worship, no matter what.
Let him have his little universe. What would America be like with a blackout of all things Shitsmear? Think about it. A much better place. Fuck this piece of shit. Shut him down and shut him out. Pay no attention. Keep moving. Nothing to see here.
Crackheads will be crackheads and will sooner or later overdose on crack and there is not a thing we can do about it.
His particular genius is that he baits us. Again and again, He offends and appalls the rational and the aware. He lies. He commands our attention by virtue of sheer outrageousness. The oldest and most despicable trick in the book. So, understand that without that, he is exclusive to the margin. Consigned to them. The dipshits. The asstards. The Hannity’s, Becks, Coulters and Levins. They are substantial in number but they are the fringe.
They are not America.
They are all, fucking liars.
Only through the outrage they generate, do they matter at all. The lies they tell, stir the cognizant far more than the great unwashed. Remember that.
I will never ever, mention the human Shitsmear again.
Drinks for my friends.
p.s.
If you enjoyed this blog, I really recommend you read the comments, not the ones where folks agree with me, I love and appreciate them but that would be boring. As of this writing, the last comment is a transcript of me spanking the brain of some moron on facebook that is the quintessential example of the "1/4 Paradigm" that I reference in so many of my blogs including this one. It’s really a lot of fun. I hope you check it out.
