Rush Limbaugh selection in children’s book competition causes a stir

Anyone in the US who actually claims to be "oppressed" is full of it.

I believe the lower wage earners are becoming oppressed by the cost of living. Personally, it seems every time I turn around the prices of commodities and basic staples of living are going up.
 
Rush didn't write the book. As such, it's smarter to judge the quality of the text created by any ghost writer and illustrator. Conservatives looking for some other suggestions, you may want to look for Lynne Cheney's books. Even though these books are almost entirely to enhance "Rush Limbaugh" the brand, it's not as if big jolly ol' Rush sat down and wrote the thing to bash liberals and feminists.
 
Not only do you not get Godwin's law, you double down on the idiotic comparison. This just does a huge disservice to those who suffered at the hands of the Nazis. You should be embarrassed but ignorance is bliss, I guess.

Goebbels had far more talent, insight, and direct influence on a regime than Rush could ever hope. Rush, though influential, is not even close to as scary of a combination as Huey Long and Father Coughlin.
 
What modern “liberals” hold as principles are, for the most part, diametrically-opposed to the values on which this nation was founded.
You mean they didn't believe in slavery?
 
Sorry, t-shirts = t-shirts. It's the same thing.

But if you want to play stupid games:


T-shirts? T-SHIRTS????
Who the heck is talking about T-shirts.

Are you trying to tell everyone here that you never noticed that from the start Obama sold himself as the Savior and that it was picked up and run with by the most impressionable among us?



Remember? He was gonna slow the rise of the Oceans and heal the Planet?



W Bush never had, nor did he encourage, anything like that kind of adulation.


C'mon Rocket ... you're better than that.
 
I wonder how many people who will, no doubt, trash this book have actually read it. I haven't, so maybe it is complete garbage. On the other hand, I'm not offended either by the thought of a book that's actually positive about our nations beginnings.

Of course the Libbos aren't going to actually READ the books! That would take effort. It's easier for them to read Daily KOS.
 
Pass. Rather be gouged in the brain with a red hot poker. Would basically have the same effect, after all.

Closed mindedness at it's best! Thank you for the exhibit.
 
The correlation is a natural and obvious one. If it wasn't me it would have been someone else. No, I haven't read his books either, but I have read about them and a few quotes. From what I can tell, the books seem to be more about Rush and his magic pony, than history.

Here's a few memorable quotes from 'Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrim'.....




The 15 best lines from Rush Limbaugh’s historical fanfiction about himself


Rush the substitute history teacher and his talking, time traveling, magical horse.....are more likely to inspire kids to take a nap than to pick up a real history book. lol

It seems harmless enough.

You're perfectly content with someone else telling you what to think?
 
He is just another moron showman trying to pad his own pockets by running his mouth.

There are too many of these money-grubbing stooges around these days.

My Golden Retriever is more of a leader and visionary.

All the profits from the books are going to charity.

Ignorance sucks! Don't it??
 
I'm sure he doesn't, since you're completely wrong.

Liberals consider the Constitution liberal? Why then do they want to scrap it? :shock:

Greetings, apdst. :2wave:

Only for his sheeple.

He still is a carnival barker padding his own pockets.

Real ignorance really sucks, doesn't it?

The man has no need to pad his pockets. Are you always this cynical?

People who blindly worship at his, or anyone else's feet, need to try thinking for themselves for a change.

That is reality.

So this is a reason to trash his works?
 
Does Rush know that the nation was founded by liberals, on liberal principles?

Yes actually he does and he loves lamenting the fact that the liberals hijacked the name liberal.
