This bounty hunter is my kind of scum: fearless and inventive.

Just saying.

(I haven't done a Rush post in a while. As a warning- Jabba quotes always equal Rush.)

Han, mah bukee, keel-ee caleya ku kah.

I'm just posting this headline from the Washington Post because it makes me chuckle: Limbaugh Weighs In.

No doubt the byline goes to Al Franken.

As for the substance of the article I'd just point out that the Limbaughs and Coulters of the world think they're too clever by half with this stuff. Whether they're trying to pull a reverse head-fake or just stir up their audience it's not effective because they JUST AREN'T RELEVANT.

People have to care what you say before you can actuallyget a rise out of them.

They will all suffer for this outrage.

I'm with Jane.

Jabba has no business on Armed Forces radio.

Now you're Bantha fodder.

How could I not bring up this quote? It's not often there's a story that combines Rush Limbaugh, Star Trek and our own Congressman Wu. In fact I doubt I'll be able to type those three things again in the same sentence so I ought to strike while the anvil's hot.

In Rush's defense and as a fan of Star Trek I have to say Wu's quote is rather lame. He says that Neocons are closer to Klingons than Vulcans. That's nuts. Klingons are an honorable race. Neocons wouldn't know honor from a hole in their head.

Wonkee chee sa crispa con Greedo?

It really doesn't bother me that much any more when Limbaugh goes of on another non-sensical tangent (via Digby) and blames Democrats for the Foley scandal. I'd be shocked if he said something marginally sane.

What does continue to bug me is this is exactly the sort of stuff Republican use to self-justify election fraud. They tell themselves that the damn, filthy Democrats set Foley up so they deserve to wait 8 hours in line to vote in Ohio, or have their ballots tossed in Florida or some other such nonsense.

Screw them and their faux outrage. What a pathetic bunch of flat-out losers.

There will be no bargain, young Jedi. I shall enjoy watching you die.

In response to Keith Olbermann's excellent 911 speech Rush writes:

All right, folks. I think that is revisionist history. This idea that we were all unified on 9/11 is just bunk, and I am going to say it. I don't believe it for a moment. I think that when 9/11 happened, a lot of kooks on the left said, "A-ha! This is how we're going to get Bush. He's incompetent," or they were either saying, "Oh, no! The country is going to come together." You can't tell me that the people who hated Bush ten months earlier over the Florida aftermath, the Florida recount, all of a sudden came together and it was all kumbaya time. I do not believe it."

I'd make the observation that anyone who cannot imagine that those whose politics they disagree with would put country before party in a time of national crisis must themself be someone who consistently puts party before country and sees everything through this same lens.

(Bring me Solo and the Wookiee. They will all suffer for this outrage.)

Paragon of all that is good and decent in the world, guardian of morality and voice of modern conservatism Rush Limbaugh is arrested on drug charges.

It just goes to prove you never can trust a Limbaugh...

Bo Shuda!

Cousin Rush gets his pasty, white rear chewed off. An oldie but a goodie. (video)
