For the past couple of months, Democrats have successfully promoted the notion that Rush Limbaugh, a flatulent sea donkey with a popular radio show for losers, was in fact the “real” head of the Republican party. This assertion has the advantage of being at least sort of true; Limbaugh’s show gets some frighteningly insane number of listeners, and he’s powerful enough that actual Republican politicians who cross him end up publicly castrated before live audiences of bloodthirsty Limbaugh fans.
But it appears the worm is turning! First Eric Cantor goes on George Stephanopoulos’s show and says that he does not agree with every single thing Rush Limbaugh has ever said or will say in the future. A full 24 hours later, Eric Cantor is still alive.
And now the compulsively quotable Michael Steele, the guy whom one might argue is the head of the Republican party in the sense that he is the frigging CHAIRMAN OF THE RNC, has decided that he too shall speak ill of the Limbaugh, and damn the consequences.
STEELE: So let’s put it into context here. Let’s put it into context here. Rush Limbaugh is an entertainer. Rush Limbaugh, his whole thing is entertainment. Yes, it’s incendiary. Yes, it’s ugly.
!!!!
So now all your snarky media outlets get to write about how the party is “tearing itself apart,” and how there’s a bitter internecine war raging between the new dorky hip-hop wing of the party and the fat angry yokel wing of the party.
Eventually Rush Limbaugh can just start his own party, and between the Paultards and the Dittoheads, there will be nothing left of the Republicans but Michael Steele, Arlen Specter, and a juice box.

This is a little worrisome. The RNC could actually recover if Republicans told Rush and Coulter to go fuck themselves.
Would that be an organic juice box with 100% vitamin C, or Tang?
Is there no room at the top for their 13-year old turd-in-bloom??
Rush Limbaugh is an entertainer. And I’m a SEX MACHINE!
[re=256046]tootsieroll[/re]: It’ll be a motherfuckin’ hip-hop juice box, don’t ya know?!
JEEBUS! Rush isn’t getting along with like, ANYONE, at all. Him and Newt have been battling over whether Ronald Reagan is still the party overlord over at CPAC.
And why is Ann Coulter Free now? These blog-ads are freakin’ me out, man.
“a flatulent sea donkey” — right on the money, SKS!
It’s great to listen to Limbaugh’s ads. They’re all for how to get out of debt, replace your hair, buy gold, lose weight. It really is the Loser Network.

[re=256052]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Link FAIL.
[re=256043]Sussemilch[/re]: Not to worry, we can always bring up the LAST EIGHT FUCKING YEARS again..oh, and Hannity and Ho’ the Plumber also.
[re=256052]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: You’ve finally succumbed to blogging self-abuse. No more beating up on Miller, now!
Michael Steele is the de facto leader of the black, hispanic and Vanilla Ice van Republicans. Rush has the stupid white people. There, problem solved.
The Juicebox would still get 25% of the vote in some parts of the country and a seat on the DC City Council because we have to have a Republican seat, I guess.
We can only hope the reasoned voice of Sean Hannity will bring the party back together.
[re=256049]Fox n Fiends[/re]:
He said he was an entertainer. He didn’t say anything about quality. I mean, technically Carlos Mencia and Dane Cook can also be classified as “entertainers”.
Mr. Limbaugh, put down that Oxycontin!
Rebubulans cut off part of their dwindling base? It is to laugh, haha: with milk-nose-snorting and so forth.
The only entertainment Lush Rimjob can offer me is if he would swan-dive from 500′ into a pile of scrap steel.
“Juice box” is a very ugly name for Senator Collins.
There is an important difference between de facto and de jure:
de facto is a Latin expression that means “concerning the fact” or in practice but not necessarily ordained by law. It is commonly used in contrast to de jure (which means “by law”) when referring to matters of law, governance, or technique (such as standards)…
A de facto government is a government wherein all the attributes of sovereignty have, by usurpation, been transferred from those who had been legally invested with them to others, who, sustained by a power above the forms of law, claim to act and do really act in their stead.[1]
In politics, a de facto leader of a country or region is one who has assumed authority, regardless of whether by lawful, constitutional, or legitimate means; very frequently the term is reserved for those whose power is thought by some faction to be held by unlawful, unconstitutional, or otherwise illegitimate means, often by deposing a previous leader or undermining the rule of a current one. De facto leaders need not hold a constitutional office, and may exercise power in an informal manner…
Some notable true de facto leaders have been Deng Xiaoping of the People’s Republic of China and General Manuel Noriega of Panama..

Well, clearly if the secret deep down motivation for your Republicanism is your seething racism, and you turned to the GOP for shelter now that America has a half breed muslin president that everybody loves, and then your precious racist party is suddenly run by it’s own half breed muslin, where are you to turn but into the flabby arms of an incendiary, racist, hypocrite? I mean, Rush is a guy most bitters can relate to. He’s angry. He’s stupid. He’s addicted to oxycontin. He likes to scream. And most importantly, he’s a straight white man who has been oppressed by gays, women, and coloreds.
[re=256053]V572625694[/re]: To be fair, the Air America network had all of the same ads. Kind of creepy, come to think of it.
Actually, Specter, Steele, and a juicebox could probably mount a better campaign against the Dems (who are a bunch of pussy pushovers who will cave at the slightest mention of anti-Americanism) than Palin, Jindal, or Joe the Fucknut. I really hope that the juicebox is not on-board, because I’m really hoping for the Palin-Jindal ticket.
[re=256060]SayItWithWookies[/re]: This should work out nicely for the GOP as their non-white/vanilla ice contingent is about 5%.
[re=256069]Dr Tobias Funke[/re]: Sorry Wonkette burried the real story here!

Wait….so D.L Hughley did the interview?
Washington Press take note….when you are getting your ass kicked by Stewart, Colbert and now Hughley, it’s time to start admitting you are phoning it in.
“Yes it’s ugly.”
I think we’re getting an idea of just how well these two know each other.
Steele Vs. Limbaaaa will be like Ali vs. Quarry III. Ali said to the Great White Hope of the time. “Your punches don’t hurt me and I have no respect for you” then TKO’d the loser.
By persecuting blacks and Jews, Rush will revitalize the Republicans. The fact that they’re his OWN blacks and Jews just proves that a fat man with a short reach cain’t be bothered to get up out of his chair.
Rush who?
[re=256061]The Cold Sea[/re]: The Juicebox could certainly get a little over 25% too if it’s handlers pointed out that it doesn’t believe in Evolution as it’s a juicebox.
Whoever loses, we win.
[re=256043]Sussemilch[/re]: Uh, yeah – if they said it several times a day for a few years. But even then, not under the leadership of Urkel.
How is Bill O’Reilly keeping quiet about all this? Toss your giant hat into the ring, Bill, and a tri — nay — a DOUCHE-fecta will be created the likes of which the world has never seen (since the election).
[re=256074]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: You’re right about the loser ads on Air America. Not sure about what it says about people who follow politix. But as I was reminded last week: stop being fair! Being fair is what always kills Democrats!
Maybe.
‘So now all your snarky media outlets get to write about how the party is “tearing itself apart,” and how there’s a bitter internecine war raging between the new dorky hip-hop wing of the party and the fat angry yokel wing of the party.’

Juice Box\Rock from Mike Gravel commercial 2012
A long time ago, there was a popular breakfast cereal, and it was made from the same material as fed barnyard animals. When asked to describe it, the usual response was, “It’s most donkey oatey.”
Classics must be prefigured in the popular imagination. I remember the pop dance tune.
“Limbo lower now

Without that foreshadowing, AM radio would not have been.
you can’t really call the humiliation of goobers like that Gingrey guy a “public castration” because he didn’t have any balls to begin with …
[re=256053]V572625694[/re]: Sounds a bit like Howard Stern’s ads, except they also advertise pr0n, Fleshlights, and sites where you can find people to cheat on your spouse.
Then again, all this is not a whole lot different from most radio ads these days. Hell, even the Super Bowl had a Cash4Gold ad. Seeing as to how the economy is 100% cratering, all we generate these days are pr0n, sex, and pharmaceuticals.
Get these two in the Octagon. PPV will go thru the roof.
Limbaugh has been bloating up lately. Obviously this whole negro invasion of the republican party has got him nervously binge eating again.
[re=256083]PsycGirl[/re]: These losers actually buy a baldness cure hawked by Rush Limbaugh. Is it possible to be any more stupid?
Hey Rush — before you dropped out of community college, did you read any Freud? ‘Cause guys who like to stick long, round, stiff things in their mouths may be suppressing something else. Something that cannot be driven out by doing 12 year-old Dominican girls at a sex resort. Give in to your inner queer, Rush. Gingrich is running for president again. Given his record, you being a closeted drag queen will pale in comparision.
There are more than enough hobbits and elves within the Paultard community to fill the ranks of the Paultardian Army. They don’t compare in numbers very well against sheer volume of the Horde of Dittiots.
I really think Wonkette should have a photoshop contest portraying this inevitable war between the Dittoheads and the Paultards. Furthermore, I demand that this glimpse into the future have a blimp in it.
“STEELE: I’m the de facto leader of the Republican Party”
Mike, dude, hate to break it to you, but you are a black man from a moderate to liberal eastern state. You ain’t the de facto leader of the Republican Party.
And while the loony left laughs at Limbaugh, the Messiah continues to wreak so much damage to their party that it will take the Dems 20 years to undo it all.
Rusharoonie- I love it that a man in black sans-a-belt slax is leading the rebellion- He is SO entertaining! He is puffing up so his chest can hold a full-sized replica of the Confederate flag – not far to go! I love it that in hard times the republican party seeks advice from an entertainer! Why not?! Everyone knows comics know how to run the economies of large countries with their oracular powers!
He puts the Dick in Dixie- you have to love the big old guy.
Rush and Michael Steele will battle it out to the death, and Michelle Bachman will become the ruler of the wingnuts. The End.
[re=256077]The Unfairman[/re]:
Not to mention, given it’s a Republican, most likely past its shelf life.
Rush is right now attacking Steele on his show, the fight on the Right is on, ha ha.
btw, I was at CPAC, and my favorite moment came when, while lounging in the hotel bar around 6 pm Thursday, there was commotion at the hotel entrance and in walked the Steele himself, surrounded by a gaggle of young CPAC volunteers taking their bodyguard role seriously. Then out of nowhere, near the bar, emerges a already pretty drunk cpac frat boy, who demands a high five from the man himself, calling him “my uptown chair!” “give me five my uptown chair!” fucking brilliant. them on the right love them their king of hop.
The non-incendiary words of Rush Flush at CPAC:
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/Business/story?id=6977202&page=1
It was not us [Republicans] asking whether Barack Obama was authentic. What we were asking is: Is he wrong? We concluded, yes. We still think so. But we didn’t ask if he was authentically black. We didn’t say, as some Southern Christian Leadership Conference leaders said: Barack is not authentic, he’s not got any slave blood. He’s really not down for the struggle, but his wife is. So don’t expect the [libreal] race industry to go away.
.. President Obama is so busy trying to foment and create anger in a created atmosphere of crisis, he is so busy fueling the emotions of class envy that he’s forgotten it’s not his money that he’s spending.
They don’t have the right to take money that’s not theirs, from the back pockets of producers, and give it to groups like ACORN …
Remember, they [the Dems] covered the Lewinsky thing …
We don’t have the votes in Capitol Hill to stop what’s going to happen. What we can do is slow it down, procedure, parliamentary procedures, slow it down and do the best we can to inform the American people of what’s really on the horizon.
So you say how is he [Obama] getting it done? Dumb down public education.
They [the Democrats] see these inequalities, these inequities that capitalism produces. How do they fix it? Do they try to elevate those at the bottom? No! They try to tear down the people at the bottom.
Northern Trust was forced, like Wells Fargo was forced, to take TARP money. …. As you know, they went out and they sponsored the LA Riveria Open two weeks ago that Phil Mickelson barely hung on and won. [Applause] And we find out they hired some liberals to entertain, but it still wasn’t good enough. They hired Sheryl Crow. And they hired the rock crooner group Chicago …
The haughty John Kerry wrote a piece of legislation said: He’s getting sick and tired, sick and tired of these CEOs using taxpayer money to throw all these lavish parties. And I’m saying where do you get yours, Senator?
…the Democrats and Obama are asking you to feel better simply on the basis that they’re going to get revenge for you, but your life isn’t going to improve, somebody else’s is just going to be destroyed and they want you to be happy over that.
… These people in New York and Washington, cocktail elitists, they get made fun of when the next NASCAR race is on …
I loved it when the Soviet Union went down and the wall went down and the liberals in our country said you know they may not be ready for freedom over there. They’ve been oppressed — yes, liberals will gladly tell you who can have freedom and who can’t.
Oh, by the way did you hear about Joe Biden? Joe Biden was mystified how Bobby Jindal got his shift off at 7-Eleven that night to make the speech. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Time out. Suspend speech for explanation. People watching at home. I’m glad this happened. Glad this happened. You think I just made a joke, an ethnic joke about Bobby Jindal, don’t you? I didn’t. I made a joke about the bigotry of the Vice President of the United States, Joe Biden.
…Biden was on the CBS Early Show. And he was asked – [by the] the anchorette …
Now, about my still-to-me mysteriously controversial comment that I hope President Obama fails. …. That’s nothing more than common sense and to not be able to say it, why in the world do I want what we just described, rampant government growth indebtedness, wealth that’s not even being created yet that is being spent, what is in this? What possibly is in this that anybody of us wants to succeed? Did the Democrats want the war on Iraq to fail!
CROWD: Yes!
RUSH: They certainly did. …. They hoped George Bush failed.
… You can’t say, Mr. Limbaugh, that you want the President to fail because that’s like saying you want the country to fail. It’s the opposite. I want the country to survive. I want the country to succeed. [Cheers and Applause]
CROWD: Thank you.
RUSH: I understand it’s mutual. And I hear people — you have made my heart grow so much that it barely fits in my chest cavity here tonight.
STEELE: I’m the de facto leader of the Republican Party”
Dude, you are the actual, real leader. What is it with republicans . . . don’t they own ANY books? Even a dictionary?
The cosmic irony with this one is strong.
Um, Ms. Smith, about this statement: “the new dorky hip-hop wing of the party and the fat angry yokel wing of the party.”

Dear Mr. Limbaugh/Steele:
The remarks Mr. Steele/Limbaugh made about you recently are the vilest form of character assassination. These base slanders, in my opinion, demand a full preemptive, physical and forceful response on your part. You must ask: will you walk like a man…or crawl like a worm? Please advise of the caliber of ammunition you prefer, and I will send you a bunch. I know you won’t quit until the job is done. May God bless you, Mr. Limbaugh/Steele, and the USA!
Sincerely, WadISay
P.S., I’m a real fan!
[re=256077]The Unfairman[/re]: Well, if that won’t get me regular, nothing will!
Rush alienates the country-club set and only appeals to the barefoot hicks. Women can’t stand him, understandably, and the younger GOP are either in favor of gay rights or are gay themselves.
That leaves the recent immigrants who are used to living in a fascist society and resent the American culture that’s against beating up your womenfolk and Rush’s stand on immigrants alienates them. That leaves the working-class Catholics who see the Mother of our Saviour in a plate of pancakes and they’re suspicious of him over the three divorces and the Protestant taint.
Other than other right-wing cranks and the MSM that suck up to him he’s just a fat, self-absorbed emperor who is stark fucking naked. And stark fucking bonkers.
Is “juice box” some sort of code for Meghan McCain?
Vote Juicebox/Palin in 2012!
The implosion and food fight in the land of Repulbitardia is just too fun to watch: Jabba vs. Da Man, Jabba vs. CantWhore, ‘Ho the Plumber vs. Walnuts, Coultergeist vs. warm blooded mammals, the face plant of Barney Jindal, the continued presence of Michele Bachmann (don’t look at the eyes!) and the elevation of a 13 year old hobbit/Foley-bait in waiting to cult leader status – it’s just SO entertaining. And that doesn’t even count the never ending stream of inanity from Snowbilly.

I can understand why Steele wants to distance his party from the Dittohead tribe. So far, veering to the right has not worked for the Republican Party. More interesting, though, is hearing Rahm Emmanuel saying Rush represents the true GOP. Nothing like driving a wedge to split the log, huh?
[re=256089]hockeymom[/re]: My point exactly. All this coverage, and no one mentions that it was my man D L Hughley who got the quote. D L and Nate Silver, the new boss men of the liberal political scene. How cum murca hates black people and nerds?
Now that Steele heads the party, it’s a “gin n’ juice box.”
It’s called “opiate withdrawal”.
In an actual CAGED DEATH MATCH between Rush Limbaugh and Michael Steele, I’m gonna have to go with Steele. Limbaugh would be out of breath in under 5 minutes under all that blubber, not to mention the smoking, plus: his overwhelming arrogance would compel him to strut around looking for approval from the crowd while the hungrier Steele sneaks up behind him and bashes his skull in with a folding table. No contest.
Coming soon to a radio and polling place near you … the Conservative Party! A real, functioning political movement that will divorce from the traitorous Republicans. There will be no room, of course, for the Ron Paul followers or other heathens, like Michael Steele and the two dozen moderates left in the GOP.
Then, we pray, that the Rushette finally takes enough drugs to run for President himself. Who else can save America? Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck will duke it out for the second spot, only to find the Rushette has no plans for a vice president and it will be so stated in his new Constitution.
Nice picture of our favorite husky little Nazi! Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Somtimes it explains why you can’t stay married to a woman. Just sayin’, Rush.
I agree with Garafalo on Countdown the other night. He’s calling this “Women’s Summit” simply to meet a woman. It’s sort of like Takashi Miike’s Audition. And I really hope he does meet a woman like the one that movie.
The Steele vs. Limbaugh war is better than I ever could have hoped. You can watch the video of Michael Steele calling Rush an entertainer here:
http://gotchamedia.blogspot.com/2009/03/michael-steele-discusses-rush-on-dl.html
[re=256400]El Pinche[/re]: Yes and Yes. Also yes. Although I’d want her to start with something a bit higher than his foot.
[re=256327]PineyWoodster[/re]: Rush may quite possibly be a virgin when it comes to women. In his third divorce, there was reportedly a large cash settlement involved so that Marta would refrain from talking about their lack of a sex life.
The guy from Chicago who has said for years he was Rush’s lover when they were young says he has no doubt his marriages were not consumnated. “Rush was a wonderful, caring lover,” he said. “Very gentle.”
Oh boy!
Tonight funny man Olberman will make fun of Rush on teevee.

Rush is both a sow and a bore.
The quote of the year. Rush said:
“If I were chairman of the Republican Party, given the state that it’s in, I would quit. I might get out the hari-kari knife because I would have presided over a failure that is embarrassing to the Republicans and conservatives who have supported it and invested in it all these years.”
RUSH FOR RNC CHAIRMAN!
Who’s with me?
the only resolution to this is a CAGE MATCH!! two men enter one leaves….
Welp looks like Steele bent over
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0309/19517.html
“My intent was not to go after Rush – I have enormous respect for Rush Limbaugh,” Steele said in a telephone interview. “I was maybe a little bit inarticulate. … There was no attempt on my part to diminish his voice or his leadership.”
[re=256472]choom gangster[/re]: That didn’t take long. Rush brooks no dissent and takes no prisoners.

Why will no one take Rush on? Does he have pics of them all at some “party” down in the Dominican Republic, or what?
Oh well. Good news for us. The more Rush is riding high, the more fatuous he becomes, the more certain he is of all his Terrifying Power, the more sensible people will be throwing up at the very thought of the Republican party. Keep it up, Rush. End the party.
snark’s back on…Steele apologized to Limbaugh after being tarred and feathered and put on a rail by hoards of ditto heads

Go ahead Rush, start your own political party…. I DOUBLE DARE YOU.
[re=256486]iolanthe[/re]: Hahahaha..Rush owns the sinking ship!
Steele just gave his balls and the keys to the GOP to Herr Limbaugh. They are afraid, very afraid, of the balloon-assed bully. It is a wonderful thing to watch.
Remember seeing old newsreels of Mussolini? How he’d strut around and puff out his chest, chin jutting in the air? Limbaugh is like that lately although he can move around very quickly. Here’s his response to Steele from today:
http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_030209/content/01125111.guest.html
Of course Limbaugh never, ever debates anyone face-to-face. Even his old TV show had very screened pro-Rushies in the audience. He won’t be on a news program where he isn’t the sole guest.
Instead of allowing him a Fuhrer-like speech he needs to be ambushed with an actual thinking person he’d have to debate. I’d like to see Rachel Maddow but I’m open to suggestions.

[re=256472]choom gangster[/re]: [re=256486]iolanthe[/re]: Proving that Rush really is the leader of the party, just like Rahm Emmanuel said. This was probably a giant ruse on the part of Emmanuel, Obama and no doubt various other Democratic trolls to see how easy it was to get Rush to leap for the bait, and to get the other Republicans fighting amongst themselves. Clearly, it is very easy indeed.
Although I don’t recall Colin Powell apologising for being insufficiently fawning over Rush. But I dare say he barely counts as a Republican these days.

Y’know, if today’s “Liberals” (I use the term in quotes on account of they’re not, really; a genuine liberal holds individual rights to be the prime value, and defends those rights against the “Malevolent Jobholder” of government) want some real reasons to revile Republicans, they ought to look back – ALL the way back – into the history of the conspiracy.
If you think today’s National Socialist Party (does anybody still call ‘em “Democrat” any more?) is bad – and it most certainly is – just run a full diagnostic work-up on the profligacy, malignancy, and cancerous invasiveness of the “Grand Old Party.”

“Apparently millions continue to harbor the strange delusion that the Republican party is the party of free enterprise, and, at least since the New Deal, the party of conservatism. In fact, the party is and always has been the party of state capitalism. That, along with the powers and perks it provides its leaders, is the whole reason for its creation and continued existence. By state capitalism I mean a regime of highly concentrated private ownership, subsidized and protected by government. The Republican party has never, ever opposed any government interference in the free market or any government expenditure except those that might favour labour unions or threaten Big Business. Consider that for a long time it was the party of high tariffs – when high tariffs benefited Northern big capital and oppressed the South and most of the population. Now it is the party of so-called ‘free trade’ – because that is the policy that benefits Northern big capital, whatever it might cost the rest of us. In succession, Republicans presented opposite policies idealistically as good for America, while carefully avoiding discussion of exactly who it was good for.
“There is nothing particularly surprising that there should be a party of state capitalism in the United States. And certainly nothing surprising in the necessity for such a party to present itself as something else. Put in terms the Founding Fathers would have understood, the interests Republicans serve are merely the court party – what Jefferson referred to as the tinsel aristocracy and John Taylor as the paper aristocracy. The American Revolution was a revolt of the country against the court. Jeffersonians understood that every political system divides between the great mass of unorganized folks who mind their own business – that, is, the country party – and the minority who hang around the court to manipulate the government finances and engineer government favours. It is much easier and quicker to get rich by finding a way into the treasury than by hard work. That is mostly what politics is about. Of course, schemes to plunder society through the government must never be seen as such. They must be powdered and perfumed to look like a public good.”

Has anyone made the Ayn Rand newspaper-reporter story reference yet?

Great bumpersticker (if you feel like I do bout Herr Limbaugh).
