Q: All the big Rush/Glenn fans I know are also alcoholics. Is there a correlation?
Surely some of y'all can explain if there's causation, in which direction, etc.
These fans (I know many -- this is Texas) run the gamut from middle-class retirees to wealthy to lower-middle class with gross differences in education, opportunity, and income. But they're ALL frikkin' soused. What's up with that?

All of DU worships Keef and Rachel and 90% of you smoke pot.

7. most people I know who are rightwing
have very low mental capacities. They know a lot about certain things, for sure, but they can't seem to process certain kinds of information related to socio-economic conditions. It might be too complex for them. They basically are close-minded about issues which run counter to their preconceived notions of the world.
Yeah me so stupid I can't understand when Obama said my paycheck would be bigger in Jan that he really meant it would be a bit smaller.
In my stupid mind I heard bigger and thought larger not smaller. :mental:

Unless you like Meaty-Fingers Madclown. Then you're all about the carpet.

Fixt.
For the record...NOT an alkie. Pround member of the Rush Adopt-A-Soldier program.
:bird: DUmmie

More projection from DUmmies who have uncles locked up in their house from the cops.
-
Huh, all the rabid obambi supporters I know are all to stupid to breathe. How's that happen?
-
That's interesting, especially since I'm a non alcohol drinker.
-
According to the new societal rulz, if a woman drinks more than one alcoholic beverage a day she's an alcoholic. Hell, put me down as one then :bird:
I sure need several shots of whiskey or something equally strong every time I come here and wade through the DUmpster drippings. :whistling:
Here's an interesting link about our Founding Fathers' drinking habits. I'd say, judging from what I read here that Rush listeners, the purported alkies, would have had alot in common with the founders of our nation.

Also, there's a really fascinating book called The Joy of Drinking
http://www.amazon.com/Joy-Drinking-Barbara-Holland/dp/1596913371#reader_1596913371
Food for thought. :cheersmate:

I'm a recovering alcoholic. Almost 15 months clean and sober.
So, suck it, DUmb****s. :bird: :bird: :bird:

Congratulations, sir. :)

Quitter.

BTW, as many damn drunk/stoned posts I've seen coming from those mentally-ill mofuggas, I don't think they should be talking trash.

Don't know if I've ever congratulated you for this accomplishment, sir. :yahoo: It takes a strong person to give up temptation in any form.

Pots and kettles, as I'm sure there are plenty of drunks at DU.
I know their socially liberal sort - the kind that looks for any excuse to booze it up and get sloshed. Chinese New Year, half-birthday, Saint Patrick's (when most of them aren't Irish or Catholic or even Christian, and yet they're hitting the bars and the liquor stores) - nothing but a bunch of irresponsible boozers.
It's one thing to be addicted to the drink - that can happen to most anyone. It's another to accept it and revel in it when it's with people of your own political persuasion and condemn a political opponent for the same.
Hypocrites.

I never knew Will Pitt was a huge Rush and Glenn fan.
-
How does it "know" these people are alcoholics? And how is it that Rush has listeners who are middle and lower middle income? I thought everyone on the right was rich and selfish? Oh wait, they're probably Christian.

Elliehaha probably knows only drunks, dopers, or script druggies regardless of party.
-
Really?
I am a Glenn fan and I have maybe ONE drink a month. If that. And when I do have a drink, it's usually Dr. Pepper mixed with a shot of Captain Morgan. Not enough to even make me slightly tipsy.
Rush airs at the same time as Glenn, so I only listen to Rush when KDWN airs a repeat of Glenn's show because something was wrong with getting the audio that morning. We don't listen to Glenn live out here, but Rush's show is live for us.

Well, I can only say that conservatives buy their own booze while DUmmies trade foodstamps for theirs.

And deprive their kids of needed food, but oh well, that's what the taxpayer funded school breakfast lunch and dinner program is for. :bird:

Really? That's weird, since pretty much all the conservatives, Beck/Rush fans or not, are fairly intelligent, capable thinkers. Wonder where he/she/it is finding the people it hangs around with.

Care to explain xultar then DUmmies?
-
Ohhhhhhhrelllly!!

I drink but I'm not an alcoholic by any means. No one in the family is either or ever was. How many times have we seen the DUmp members post drunk online and some of them get the granite pizza?

I think it's a pre-requisite to becoming a DUmmie. :-)

Having "cranial/rectal inversion disorder" helps, too.

H5, and it makes more sense than the DUmb****'s correlation.

I, too, am recovering, but I haven't practiced my disease in about 25 years...

We're all morons huh? Guess I need to cancel my membership in Mensa.

An H5 to ya. One day at a time . . . 'Course, The Heiress demands a lot of time and energy, and is a pretty good incentive to stay clean and sober.
