Democrat Congresswoman Bashes Rush Limbaugh on House Floor

Monday night's football game between the Jets and the Dolphins might have been the best so far this year, but nothing is matching the entertainment value of the Left's hysteria concerning conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh's bid to buy the St. Louis Rams.

The fiscally-challenged Democrats could actually balance the budget if they sold beer, popcorn, and hot dogs every time some liberal politician or media member stepped in front of a microphone to express why the Excellence in Broadcasting chief isn't qualified to own a football team.

*snip*

     "He does not represent the fullness of appreciation of athletes of all diverse backgrounds no matter what he wants to pretend to say on his radio station. But he is one who is divisive just as they're about to select him as a judge for a Miss America contest. I can't understand that, but that is their choice. Maybe they think he'll bring in millions of listeners, but can you imagine a poor girl scared already to be able to ask a question about the person she admires most, and she says somebody that happens to be a different political affiliation. She is, of course, not a winner. But that's their decision. "

Hmmm. You mean like how Carrie Prejean didn't win the Miss USA pageant a few months ago because of HER political views? Where was the Congresswoman when THAT happened?

LINK (http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2009/10/14/democrat-congresswoman-bashes-rush-limbaugh-house-floor) to article with video of ....
you guessed it....Sheila Jackson-Lee having another temper tantrum.

Why exactly is Congress concerned with who owns a NFL team???  Do they really not have anything more important to discuss???   :whatever:

Anyone see the picture of Rush on MSN.com's front page?  They found a picture of him at his most bloated to use and not a current one.  I don't know how to screen cap on a mac, if anyone knows how to do that would you let me know?

New requirement for holding an elected position: coherence.  You can't have a discussion or reason with someone who can't clearly express what they're thinking, sorry.

The investor group seeking to buy the Rams has now dropped Rush from the group. So now he can show tangible harm. I hope he takes all the money he was going to invest in the team and puts it into libel lawsuits. I'm sure his damage awards will end up being a better profit than the team would have been.

That would be interesting if he went that route.  But I doubt he will.  I bet his ratings go up for a bit over it though.

Personally I don't like Rush and I think if anything he makes republicans look bad, hes like the Al Sharpton of the Republicans, spewing dumb Sh*t all the time, but why is this the business of politicians?? They should be more concerned with the economy then who is buying the St.Lois Rams Football team, come guys get it together.

Dear Dipshit,

Question for you--did Sharpton pay up for the last time he was found guilty of slander?  His supporters may have, but doesn't that kind of defeat the point?  But what do I know?  Hell, it happened before you were even BORN, toots.

Oh, and do you think what Shaprton, et al, did to Limbaugh rises to the level of slander, and should it be pursued in a court of law?  Why or why not?

Really?  He's like Al?  He falsely accused police officers of rape and abuse?  Then refused to apologize after he was convicted in court over the whole matter?

Google Twanna Brawley.

Has Rush incited a race riot in New York that resulted in the death of anyone?

Because these Liberal idiots that you hold in such high regard want to silence any way they can...anyone who doesn't hold the same views that they do.

What a wonderfully bigoted crowd you've hitched your wagon to.

I think I need to buy another subscription or three to the Limbaugh Letter, RushLimbaugh.com, and about $1000 worth of goods from the EIB store.  It is absolutely awesome that he's got the NeoCommies focused on such trivial matters as whether "the powers that be" should permit him to buy an NFL franchise. Thank-you Rush, for all you do for America!!  :bow: 

Who's up for calling our Congresscritters and Senators and seeing if we can get 'em to launch an[other] investigation into the "rampant steroid use" among the teams left in the MLB play-offs? :rocker:

How about investigating the NFL for drug/steroid use?

O'Reilly was all over this last night.

He had two women lawyers on discussing whether or not Rush should sue for libel. One said yes, O'Reilly said yes, and the other lawyer gave a poor argument for no. She just kept repeating that suing would keep the situation in the forefront and did Rush really want that type of situation instead of getting his political points out to the public.

O'Reilly and the other lawyer said they really didn't think Rush would have a problem letting people know his opinion.  :-)

The one saying he shouldn't sue is an idiot.  Did you catch what she said at the end of the segment?  She said basically if he wants to stop it he should just shut up.  Check it out below at the link, it's at the very end at about 10:05.

I agree....I thought she was trying to impress the viewers and she just came off as being an idiot. O'Reilly and the other attorney tried to save her....but she was too busy wanting to impress with her legal advice.... ::)
