Rush is pretty pig-headed, isn't he? I mean, Shatner was civil, and generally Rush was too, but there were moments when he did his classic 'letting off a bit too much steam' for my liking. He is really just too self-righteous for my liking, and a hypocrite at that.
Said as a true non-listener of his program. He is always reasonable and cordial with the people who call in even those who disagree. He has his values and principles that he will not budge one like every one of us do, if that's unreasonable then yea... I guess he is.
Seems to me you think being unreasonable means sticking to your beliefs.
@fishblades Oh, I think he's quite rude most of the time, and he likes to project, as well (witness his sparring with a caller over his hypocrisy about the Viagra/Dominican issue). His classic approach is to just try to belittle the caller he disagrees with, and pull accusations out of his ample behind. He's also a creep.
I didn't even know about this scandal until you mentioned it. Having read up on it he returned from the Dominican Republic with a bottle of viagra and was detained because the bottle had someone elses name on it. His Doctors name apparently for reasons of privacy, not surprising but still illegal.
Also I've been told by the Left for years that Rush is a racist yet they claim he went to the Dominican Republic for a sex tour hahahahaha. Why not Amsterdam?
Or Nevada where he can do it legally in a Private business who will keep it private for someone of his stature I'm sure. Given what this caller is trying to say I don't blame him for going after him.
I dont think anyone should rely on one side or another... all you will get is argument and nothing will get done. I am fairly conservative in my political views, but that doesnt mean I dont listen to the other side. Each side likes to think they are the all perfect side, and therefore wont listen to a thing that anyone from the opposing side has to say, which is really unfortunate. Im sick of listening to people complain and I want to see things get done. no one is as smart as they think...
If there's grilling in this clip, I don't see it. Shatner attempts to redirect the conversation back to health care like three times. Early on, he even says that he agrees with the basic premises that Rush lays out. There's a bit of back and forth on the war at the end but primarily they are debating health care. I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that these issues have not been well thought out but, whatever the case, they are not likely to change.
Pretty sure the discussion here is just about health care and not housing, college or " whatever else you can think of". Also not so sure that those are accurate definitions of Capitalism or Marxism.
@fishblades Believing that certain things are a right and shouldn't be left up to the free market, doesn't make someone a Marxist. I suggest you take an economics class.
@thorgak Yes shatner grilled him. You shouldn't be conservative on EVERYTHING!!! You gotta really think through these issues knowing you may change your mind in 10 years time am I right?
You pinhead liberals complaining you don't have anything BOOO HOOOO. Get a job you stupid stinky idiots. If you don't like what you have find something else and work hard. Stop thinking the gov should do everything for you. Stupid lazy idiots.
@SuperJeffta You'll be the one saying boo hoo when we decide enough is enough you greedy self invalved scum.....then you and your kind will get exactly what you deserve.You think its exceptable that america is a pathetic joke in health care world wide?The health care system led by the so called insurance companys have completely failed the people.
I want to tell you little pinhead libtards who are clueless which looks like most of the people in here are. Since we are talking health care, I've had type 1 Diabetes all of my life WITHOUT INSURANCE FOR MOST OF MY LIFE. During the Clinton admin, I went to the gov health clinics that Clinton shut down after 2 years in his term. It was the worst health care I have ever seen. The medicine was low grade, doctors were clueless about the disease, and it was full of racist brainwashed blacks.
The differences between health care (sick care, more accurately) and a bungalo on the beach, is that in the latter, society has come to recognize, and to be collectively convinced, that health is a "universal" right, and that it should be the repsonsibility of the state to supply this service (good), rather than the free market. A free-market doesn't exist in healthcare and insurance, and it is the insinuation of the state that has made such unaffordable for so many.
Rush Limbaugh getting his maid to score his oxycontin, etc.: excellent people pursuing excellence. I don't agree with the present form of prescription laws, and I certainly don't agree with the present war on drugs, however, Mr. Limbaugh has no right to declare death to drug dealers, and heavy prison terms for drug usage, when he has gone deaf by the overuse (illegal, to boot) of synthetic opiates!
Politics, a shitty frontier. These are the stories of Rush Limbaugh, his ongoing bull shit. Defend the rich and powerful, not understand what it means to be poor, to be a bigger douche bag then any douche bag has been before.
I would love to hear the audio of Rush saying that, I bet you can't find it.
If your argument is that these kids will go hungry if the school doesn't feed them then at what point do you take them from their parents who cant even provide them with food?
@fishblades Class warfare? That's what the REPUBLICANS are promoting. Let the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Liberals are actually trying to get things more equal. Damn you're stupid.
@fishblades Things should be fair but that is not to say that everyone should have equal wealth. Equal access to opportunities shouldn't be a point of contention. Where do conservatives get the idea that the wealthy and big corporations should have special privileges and have the right to redistribute the wealth to the wealthy?
@fishblades It's not a hatred of success. I have been very successful. Yet I dislike the unbalanced nature of our society. It's not unbalanced because some people have been more successful then others. It's because of those who have success is based completely on the denial of others have basic human needs. We should not be judge on how much we succeed or fail but by how many we take with us on our road to success.
Rush is pretty pig-headed, isn't he? I mean, Shatner was civil, and generally Rush was too, but there were moments when he did his classic 'letting off a bit too much steam' for my liking. He is really just too self-righteous for my liking, and a hypocrite at that.
