Rush Limbaugh's dirty mouth

Check out this gem from Media Matters:

On the August 12 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh said of former Sen. John Edwards' recent disclosure of an extramarital affair: "I've got a theory about the motivations..."It just seems to me that Edwards might be attracted to a woman whose mouth did something other than talk." Limbaugh went on to say in a subsequent segment: "my theory that I just explained to you about why -- you know, what could have John Edwards' motivations been to have the affair with Rielle Hunter, given his wife is smarter than he is and probably nagging him a lot about doing this, and he found somebody that did something with her mouth other than talk."

You know because chatty smart bitches make for limp dicks.

I'd like to suggest that Rush check this out.

Oh wow, wives nag their husbands. I've never heard that one before. Rush will likely make Keith Olbermann's Worst Persons in the World list again soon. I'll stay tuned.

I'm not going to even touch how obviously stupid that is and just say that I adore Madame Edwards. She is a brave, intelligent, beautiful woman, and I would vote for her to be president in a heartbeat.

Sadly, Rush Limbaugh spouting misogynistic garbage is no longer news. It will be news when he finally does something that makes him a pariah to his conservative enablers. Michael Savage came real close with the "there's no such thing as autism" stuff, but not quite. And if insulting children with cognitive disorders is not enough, I'm not sure what is.

I won't get into the obvious stuff, because good Lord is Limbaugh a waste of... oh, we'll play nice and say "radio waves."

So right now, instead, I'm laughing at how pathetically boring he and his listeners must be, because unless I'm not reading this right -- and please let me know if you think there's a better interpretation for this? -- it sounds like he's basically trying to make some stupid little joke about how, oh, instead of talking, Edwards' mistress gives him a blow job? Right? Isn't that a reasonable reading of this "joke" he's trying to make? Oh, hahaha, boy being in middle school sure is fun.

But, um, then he plays some clip about how the mistress was "open to new things" and makes this kind of wink-wink-nudge-nudge comment about "new things." I'm sorry -- a blow job is "new things"? If so, he and his listeners must have really sad, pathetic sex lives.

Too bad they're too busy bashing feminists to find out what great head we can give.

That there are people who give Limbaugh the gratification of even being taken seriously is something I find hard to believe these days.

For example, the picture posted here of Rush looks like an advertisement for narcissism and willful arrogance. I'm not sure what it says about us as a society that some people feel the need for a cranky, self-absorbed blowhard who spouts forth bluster when rational discourse would be in much better form and far more effective.

Of course Rush Limbaugh isn't attracted to women who talk. It makes him have to think too hard.

Interesting. Proabaly the one point of view thatg Rush, Dr. Laura and Maureen Dowd all have in common.

-Ben

So a white supremacist dope addict who was caught smuggling a suitcase full of boner pills to an island whose main tourist attraction is its large number of underage prostitutes has some twisted attitudes about sex between consenting adults.

You could have knocked me over with a feather!

Q: What is the difference between Rush Limp-balls and the Hindenberg?

A: One is a flaming Nazi gasbag spewing hot air and toxic fumes, and the other is that zeppelin that blew up.

I shake my head at how a man so lacking in all areas of warmth, intelligence and personality can make such a mint in the media.

katemoore, really, your comment could have done without "too hard" ;)

If John Edwards cheated he is to be blamed for it.

Most of my girlfriends used to talk a lot. Probably 80% of the talking was beind done by them.

I would rather not date anyone/stay single rather being with someone who talks too much. It is such a pain listening to them talk.

I think if a woman is talking too much she is being abusive &/ insensitive. The same way if a man is talking too much he is being abusive &/ insensitive.

I wish I will meet someone someday in the future who doesn't talk more than I do.

If you cannot stay with them one has to move on. One should not cheat..

ohhhh, law fairy, you are cracking me up. lmmfaooooo!

I remember when the rumor's first came out, and I woke up to Rush Limbaugh's voice (horrid I know)and he was saying "There is a double standard against genders in this country." No shit Sherlock, I thought. "There is a double standard against women in this country. John Edwards has been accused of fathering a love-child. Yet no one has accused Hillary Clinton of having a love-child." I thought about that for a while then laughed.

A very good point indeed! I stand corrected.

Absolutely nothing that comes out of this foul mans mouth comes as a surprise to me. He is dedicated to undermining women, the poor and POC. I am of the opinion that the more we critique the Rush Limbaughs of the world the more credence we give them. What he has to say cannot be considered legitimate though worthy of criticism. He stinks of privilege and arrogance.

Great post. I'm really sick of this guy talking. Nice job on the picture. I hope the cigar picture was chosen on purpose :) so clever.

So a man who makes his living off of talking all the time thinks women talk too much?

Rush Limbaugh is still around?

Unintentional comedy gold from another part of the transcript:

LIMBAUGH: Well, it's -- I mean, at some point, at some point, you gotta exhibit maturity and restraint. You know, and I do that constantly.

Suuuuuure you do, Rush.

This a popular theory among some people that if women would only -fill in the blank here (be quiet, make less money, be more submissive, support their men more) than men would stop all of their sinful, promiscuious, unprincipled actions and become fine upstanding human beings.

Me? I always wondered why men don't have enough respect and pride in themselves, not to mention strength, to be fine upstanding human beings without having to be bribed.

What happened to the "sanctity" of hetero marriage? Apparently cheating on your spouse is just fine with Rush!

What an idiot. I saw this on The Countdown With Keith Olbermann and it made me giggle at Olbermann's response.

I think I'll go ahead and post his reaction on the community :)

Rush Limbaugh, the guy who was detained with contraband Viagra at the airport? http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/06/27/national/main1753947.shtml

Let's review: you have a woman who is intelligent and only sleeps with her husband. Limbaugh calls her a nagger and undesirable. Then you have the other woman who is the adulteress. Limbaugh calls her a slut without a brain. So in conclusion, Limbaugh sees the ideal woman as an un-intelligent sex provider who doesn't speak.

Sadly for Mr. Do-other-things-with-your-mouth, it has been shown that smart (and supposedly chattty) women are better sex partners.

Speaking of nagging people that you want to stop talking: can someone please tell Rush to lick my cunt?

The George Carlin comment about men who smoke cigars suddenly comes to mind.
