National treasure and beloved American public intellectual Rush Limbaugh will join Great Communicators Walter Cronkite, Mark Twain, and Charlie Parker and some others (Harry S Truman, Bob Barker, and John Ashcroft) in the Show Me state’s …. nope. Can’t do it. Here, go read this for a minute and then come back.
Okay, we’ve all digested that? And the fact that this year’s inductees into the Hall of Famous Americans includes His Grossness and Dred Scott? Doughnuts to dollars famously unsuccessfully freed slave Scott (every time he thought he was out, they dragged him back in!) was included for his noted anti-abortion stance. Good, then your editrix will go have a cigarette and her morning cry.

Noted Humanitarian Rush Limbaugh To Be Honored At Missouri Statehouse

They will probably have to use crushed up Viagra in getting it erected.
I'm sure it's a Fluke erection
Thus putting that drug to better use than giving it to Rushbo. And to the considerable relief of wife #4, also, too.
Don't worry, he's not wasting it on Beard #4.
Missouri has some interesting timing with this.
Well, they're not known as the "Slow Me" state for nothing. The state emblem is a short bus.
I thought it was the Blow Me state…
Noooooooooooooo, that would be slutty.
I thought Joyzie was the "Blow Me" state….
If by interesting you mean "shitty" then, yeah.
Yea, MO loves Limbaugh. His cousin is a highly politically connected Federal Judge, and outside of the metro areas (STL, KC, and the city limits of Columbia) MO is in the deep south. Obama lost here.
I am not sure how you make a statue of a shitstain, but I suppose the color of bronze is a good first step.
Ah yes, Missouri, the "Show Me Some Misogyny" state.
This is the state that went big-time for Santorum; so yes, they do seem to love hating women.
They're gonna need a forklift to install a bust of that asshole's enormous head.
Ah, perfect. The timing — it's all about the timing — it just could not be better could it?
Not really. It's going to be up his butt on the full size one.
Missouri: the "Show-Me State"
Rush says, "Thanks, now show me the bag of Viagra and the house of boys!"
~
Their new "Hall of Opioid Abusing Race-bating Misogynists"
"And the fact that this year’s inductees into the Hall of Famous Americans includes His Grossness and Dred Scott? " That's what you call balance! What you give to those people, must be balanced with what you give to our people. (We, the white, god-fearing citizens of Rockridge.) Well played on the timing, too.
His Grossness and Dred Scott? " That's what you call balance!
I guess you could call it another "Missouri Compromise". Dred Scott has had pretty bad luck with those.
Well played, Chichi. That's the joke I was looking for. Time to turn in my History degree.
Noted Humanitarian Rush Limbaugh To Be Honored At Missouri Statehouse
Mainly because he lent them a T-Shirt so they could tent the place that time they had to spray for termites.
Seems that you will never understand the word humanitarian. He is just so misunderstood. I am sure {gag} that he meant it in a nice way.
Rush Limbaugh?!!? No! No! No, no, no! NO!! No! No!! NO!!!!
A bust? They're making a statue of Rush's man-boobs?
Poor Dred. Haven't black people suffered enough?
First Missouri infiltrates my football conference (since they are southern and or eastern – now they are dicks) and now this? I heard Sen McCaskill talking about the petition to stop this – I hope it kicks his ass out – she owes me.
http://www.clairemccaskill.com/rush
I saw her talking about this on TV last night. I was too lazy to get off my fat ass and type on the computer but now, in your honor, I did so (well … typed, not got off my fat ass). In respect for your football conference, too, because those people moving all around is not good. What's next? Pittsburgh will be on the West Coast?
It should be the Missouri outhouse.
Wait. Same thing?
When asked about the selection of Limbaugh, Tilley told the Southeast Missourian, "Keep this in mind: It's not called the Hall of Universally Loved Missourians. We've inducted people like John Ashcroft, Warren Hearnes and Harry Truman. They certainly had their detractors."
So serial killers still have a shot at their statues?
What have you got against us? I mean, I don't love the taste of Whole Grain Cheerios, but they are heart healthy so I eat 'em by the box.
I see what you did there.
*rimshot*
I posted this awhile back. It seems germane, so here it is again: "I was visiting family near Cape Girardeau recently and went with my aunt to put flowers on graves at this beautiful country cemetery. She was going from headstone to headstone, explaining who was related to who, where they lived, how they died. She knew everyone in that place, from the late 1800s on. She even knew who was in the grave that was marked with a creek rock. Then we got to a row of Limbaughs. She just rolled her eyes and said 'Folks around here don't really care for them.'"
If this isn't a true story, it ought to be.
Considering that the "folks around here" were all dead and buried, that's a pretty damned unpopular bunch.
You can tell me that story any time you please.
Dred Scott was pissed because his wife could only get 3/5 of an abortion.
But, in a Paul Harvey manner of story telling: And now, for the rest of the story. The remaining 2/5 grew up to be a blubbery druggie who led the Republican Party via his radio show and inducted into the Missouri Hall on the same day as his papa.
So, was the fetus 5/5 of a person, or what?
Blow me.
How will Virginia top this?
Ugh, I don't know if I can take this much right wing grossness so early in the morning.
See, its ok. The Missourian doesn't have to be beloved. Just famous. So Rush is the Voldemort of Missouri.
Still, you think they'd have a separate Hall of Infamous Missourians.
They're just asking for that shit to get paint-balled. Go on ahead, display that cooter's head where I can see it.
He'll get the Jebediah Springfield treatment within a week:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Telltale_Head
Where's Mitt's santorum gun when you need it?
UPDATE: 3:08 p.m. — The link to the page with Schubert working on the bust of Limbaugh is no longer working.
CORRECTION:This article has been changed to reflect that Claire McCaskill is a Democratic senator, not a Republican.
God–get with the program, HuffPo.
When's the ceremony for his yearly Asshole of Year Award?
Right after he returns from his semi-annual six-month vacation to Boyrape Island.
I believe they're retired the award, and just handed it to him on a permanent basis.
A HuffPo link? No way.
"Keep this in mind: It's not called the Hall of Universally Loved Missourians."
How many other assholes are honored in the Hall? Any Klansmen, Nazis, psychopaths, pedophiles, or serial rapists? I hope the ghost of Mark Twain burns their Hall to the ground.
Missouri needs to learn to distinguish between famous and infamous. Just because the Menendez brothers were infamous didn’t mean Doublemint gum should have used them in an ad campaign.
Charlie Parker knew how to score better drugs
Every time I see a pic of El Rushbo with that cigar in his mouth I think of the George Carlin bit on white pussy businessmen sucking on a big brown dick.
The exact quote sums up my feelings on Rush:
Alright, now listen, I have a few more items of things that are pissing me off. And this one comes in the form of a question: Haven't we had about enough of this cigar smoking shit in this country? When is this shit gonna end? When is this shit gonna go away? When are these fat arrogant overpaid overfed overprivilaged overindulged white collar business criminal asshole cocksuckers gonna put out their cigars and move along to their next abomination. White pussy businessmen sucking on a big brown dick. That's all it is. A big brown dick. Sigment Frued said a cigar is just a cigar. Oh yeah? Well sometimes it's just a big brown dick. With the fat arrogant white collar business criminal asshole sucking on the wet end of it. But hey, the news is not all bad for me. You wanna know the good part? Cancer of the mouth. Good! Fuck em! Makes me happy. It's an attractive disease, goes well with a "cell phone". So light up, suspender man, and suck that smoke deep down into your empty suit, and blow it out your ass you fucking cocksucker!"
Well said!
(This pic makes me want to throat-punch him like no other.)
He can have his bust in the Missouri Hall of Fame on two conditions. One, the bust must depict him puffing on a big, brown phallic cigar. Two, we get to put that Carlin quote on a bronze plaque hanging above his fat head.
"You wanna know the good part? Cancer of the mouth."
Some years back, I worked in the Intensive care section of a teaching hospital. As you might expect, most of the surgeons there had a very dark sense of humor. One of them had a son who decided that he was going to smoke cigars. The predictable "they're better for you than cigarettes" argument ensued, with Dr. Snark winning it by saying cheerfully, "Oh, good. Mouth cancer. That's *easy*. We can just slice your tongue and lips right off."
Keep smokin' those big brown dicks, Rush.
Screw ever one. You dint not mention , Ambrose Bierce or whatever his name was. Somewhere in the debbils dikshonary he described Rush.
Fuck you very much.
go have a cigarette and her morning cry.
Today we are all morally weak, as Layne would put it — enslaved each to our own (de)vices*
*and I share at least one of yours RS, the other one having been perfected by Holly Hunter some years ago in one of her memorable film moments~
Still thinkin' 'bout it: how does that overweight, stressed out, out-of-shape bag of shit get to buy health insurance in a pool with anybody – who's paying for the slutty way he takes care of himself?…
Seriously!
He talks a good game of bullshit, but he acts like someone whose quite justifiable self-hatred is causing him to commit suicide with every choice he makes. He's fat as a hog, smokes constantly, gobbles pills, has never done a complete sit-up in his life, has sex with strangers in third world countries, is consumed with anger and hate… I don't know what he eats, but I bet it has a pretty high fried and/or junk food component (just a guess). If there were something on the market called "cancer juice", he'd chug it by the gallon. How has this worthless prick not had, like, fourteen heart attacks?
Not sure he has a heart.
Would be great if the sculptor gave him a pignose.
Dredd Scott is being honored because he was unsuccessful in freeing himself.
Was he some relation of a certain gubbiners?
White supremacists love them some Dredd Scott…for the comedy.
Can,t we not make abortion illegal for men?
Anything I say after that will be deleted.
I read it as "Missouri Steakhouse"
What I love about Rush's recent turmoil is that he had to say something noteworthy to steal the news cycle back from dead pustule Andrew Breitbart. Which means that even in death, we are all one step closer to working for Andrew Breitbart.
What? Breitbart is dead??
Still.
It isn't Missouri, it was Guatemala. And it isn't the State House,it was a shithouse.I hope this clears things up.
And it wasn't a statue, it was paid sex with an underage boy.
Or Dominican Republican, where Rush used shithouses to fuck underaged male prostitutes……so they say.
Can,t we not make abortion illegal for men?
Ahhhh, Missouri, you have just renamed yourself the "Show Me We're a Bunch of Dumbfucks" State.
So, of all the people born/raised/that lived in Missouri… this is the best of what's left?
Poor Missouri…
Would that it were the only state.
Shouldn't the people of Missouri be shamed that this fat asshead came from their state?
Some of them are still pissed over the fact that he wasn't allowed to buy the St. Louis Rams.
Missouri should only bestow this honor posthumously.
Also, I think they'll need to dig a big-assed moat around it because the way I envision it it'll be like Monkey Island, but all the poo-flinging will be directed inward.
Harry "S" (no period – like Boss BlunderRush) Truman – I am quite impressed, Rebecca.
Well played!
Meanwhile, as a child I loved Bob Barker in "Truth or Consequences!"
He is a local son made good. If by 'good' you mean 'flatulently evil.'
Now now, it's entirely possible that they're just keeping it around for the skeet shooting demo.
The MO statehouse may be the last place where Rush can be found; a second radio station has dumped him:
http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/1…
I love it when bad things happen to bad people.
I hope it gets to the point where ClearChannel goes back and asks for their 44 million back for this year.
Don't the inductees need to be dead first? I'm totally ok with that.
Wait, they are sculpting a bust of Rush Limbaugh?!?!?!!?
I'm investing in clay and bronze futures RIGHT NOW!
Is clay really dense enough to portray Limbaugh's head?
Having spent my entire adult life (2 years out for Army service) in Missouri, I can tell you that Rush is very representative of most Missourians. So, it does make sense from that standpoint.
Stop feeding the troll (I'm looking at you, Arianna. Missouri's a lost cause.)
True!!
The best thing I ever learned about Missouri was that once you got to the center of the state, any direction you traveled you were leaving. Kansas City is a cool town but the rest of the state was nothing but truck stops, tweekers, fireworks sales and Amish folks.
"Can’t do it. Here, go read this for a minute and then come back."
"Good, then your editrix will go have a cigarette and her morning cry."
Don't go all Joe Scarborough on us, Schoenkopf! Not this early, no ma'am!
Your move, South Carolina.
Hmmm… I assume that working in poo would be a new medium for the sculptor.
Um, it's Missouri.
Missouri: The Show Me the Video State.
Test-of-concept video for the bust:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDAI0vfUYg
More to the point, is it too late to abort Rush?
From the "Comments" portion of the news story: "When I first saw the headline I thought it said steakhouse…my first impression was more appropriate"
Best. Comment. So. Far
It would appear the bust is only half-finished at present. Still time to dress it up with a wide open shirt collar and many, many rolls of sweaty flesh. http://blogs.riverfronttimes.com/dailyrft/2012/03…
For accuracy's sake, that is.
No snark, it seriously pains my ass to be from this loathsome godforsaken hell hole. I left 28 years ago with running shoes. And yes, so much misogyny that I can personally attest to, to this day, that we should all vote "no" on Senator Claire McCaskill's poll. maybe something can be done to keep this state-sanctioned outrage from happening. http://clairemccaskill.com/rushfixed
Doth I protest too much? Very well, then, I doth protest too much.
With Ashcroft, and now Windbag, they can now officially call it the "Hall Of Shame".
I thought he was being honored at a Missouri STEAKHOUSE…my bad
Just microwave a big whiffle ball. It would be a reasonable enough likeness.
Mid-Missouri is the meth capital of the United States. COINCIDENCE?!?!?!
Instead of honoring native son, Brad Pitt, they give a monument to this jag-off? This tells me everything I need to know about Missouri.
I trust if they ever have a Hall of Famous Arizonans it has a lock on the door and bars on the windows.
I knew about Charlie Parker, Bob Barker, and Ashcroft but I didn't know that Mark Twain, Harry Truman, and Cronkite were drug addicts too.
They don't call it hillbilly heroin for nuthin'
Yet again, I am ashamed to be a Missourian. Fuck!
