Limbaugh has lost his “Excellence”

Rush Limbaugh would resort to unethical, illegal means to ensure ‘his’ party wins the presidential election. Is anyone surprised that this egotistical, ‘holier-than-thou’ hypocrite would add riot inciter to his growing list of unethical behaviors?

It isn’t enough for him to be a proud member of a society that values fair elections in order to place the most popular person in the presidential office. He wants to stoop to the level of a Robert Mugabe and ‘force’ the election in his favor. Of course, he supported George W. Bush who stole the election by using the U.S. Supreme Court. So his level of what is ethically acceptable is already well documented.

Rush Limbaugh’s past actions and statements placed himself squarely in the midst of the lowest dregs of right wing radio talk show hosts. And his latest comments is further proof that he belongs there.

Here is his original statement:

"We do, hopefully, the right thing for the sake of this country. We're the only one in charge of our affairs. We don't farm out our defense if we elect Democrats ... and riots in Denver, at the Democratic Convention will see to it we don't elect Democrats. And that's the best damn thing that can happen to this country, as far as I can think," Limbaugh said.

Then, when faced with opposition to this comment he changes his tone expecting us to believe that what he originally said was a misinterpretation, merely a ‘dream of his’. In other words he ‘mis-spoke’. Now where did we witness this attempt at a cover up before? Oh Yeah, Hillary ‘mis-spoke’ when she said she came under sniper fire in Bosnia.

"There won't be riots at our convention," Limbaugh said of the Republican National Convention. "We don't riot. We don't burn our cars. We don't burn down our houses. We don't kill our children. We don't do half the things the American left does."

Is he actually saying that crime in this country is only committed by Democrats? What an utter ass this guy is.

He calls his grand plan “Operation Chaos” which would make the people on the far left look bad. Correct me if I am wrong but this operation is reminiscent of the plan that someone else had in mind back in the late 60’s. His plan was to start a riot by killing whites and make it appear that blacks were behind it and then he would come in and save the day. That someone was Charles Manson.

Rush Limbaugh has made many hypocritical statements that define him as an unethical, immoral hack, completely lacking integrity. Statements such as “Hillary Clinton supporters are feminists who had all had multiple abortions that had been married two or three times”, when he himself has been married three times and has NO children he has no right to cast dispersions onto someone else, yet this is Rush Limbaugh’s modus operendi. And let’s not forget that he was caught with illegally obtained Viagra prescriptions while at the same time ranting against medical marijuana users. He demands jail time for all minorities who break the law yet he did not do any jail time for his law-breaking activity.

He claims to be the leader in excellence in broadcasting yet he backpedals when confronted with inciting riots. Doesn’t sound very excellent to me.

The dictionary defines Excellence this way: the fact or state of excelling; superiority; eminence. I don’t see this definition applied to Rush Limbaugh in any way.

Rush, you really ought to re-evaluate what you consider “excellence in broadcasting”.

Executive privilege has been abused

Once again Bush decides that ‘protecting’ one of his ‘good ole boys’ from questions designed to get to the truth is the best course of action for tis country. The integrity of the U.S. Attorneys Office is in the balance. The Senate Judiciary Committee has been ineffective at shaking Gonzales from his perch what does Rove have to afraid of?

Getting to the bottom of anything in this administration is the nearly impossible. Actually, we know the truth, but getting these guys to own up to it is what is impossible.

Bush blocks every investigation and hides behind ‘executive privilege’. Why is he covering up what a few simple questions will uncover. That is, assuming Rove would actually be adult enough to tell the truth. It cannot possibly shed any illuminate anything worse than he has already been guilty of.

It is a simple matter of whether or not Rove had anything to do with the wrongful firings of attorneys. If he is guilty then make him answer for it.

Bush has come up with the lame excuse for evoking this privilege by saying he is trying to 'protect' his ability to receive 'candid' advice. Giving advice is not criminal, acting on advice that results in wrongful termination is criminal and that responsibility lies squarely on you Mr. president. Aren’t you intelligent enough to know when advice can result in criminal activity? Aren't you moral enough to know what is right and what is wrong despite it's legality? Didn’t you know that firing attorneys for political reasons was wrong? If you are getting advice from someone who doesn’t care about the legality or morality of your actions then he should be discarded immediately. Don’t protect this low-life.

Taking this man’s ‘advice’ has put the U.S. Attorney General on the hot seat, has added to the pile of evidence against you that you are nothing without advisors, and at best it just shows that you have to be led around by the nose like a puppet. Don’t you have any original thoughts that you can call your own? Who is actually running this government, aren’t you tired of just being a mouthpiece? Have you no pride?

In response to the committees subpoena, White House counsel Fred Fielding has the unabashed temerity to chastise the Senate Judiciary Committee for not ‘asking nicely’ for information. As if they could expect the White House to answer truthfully.

Karl Rove had no problem discussing this matter with the media until he was told he needs to discuss the matter under oath. As soon as he realizes that someone doesn’t like what he said and begins questioning him on the facts behind his comments he clams up. He is all puffed up with importance by having been associated with something that gets into the media until someone calls him on it and then he shrivels away and hides behind ‘his daddy’. This is the behavior of a petulant child. The statements he made contradicted the U.S. Attorney Generals version of the events and as such deserve to be investigated. Bush is acting as a parent trying to protect his child from those who are rightfully seeking justice.

The White House already has invoked executive privilege to block previous testimony by former White House political director Sara Taylor and former White House counsel Harriet Miers, who skipped a hearing in the House two weeks ago, and to keep Chief of Staff Josh Bolten from turning over documents subpoenaed as part of the inquiry.

The panel voted to cite Miers and Bolten for contempt of Congress for failing to comply with subpoenas. An action that would get anyone else thrown in jail. But this is the 'justice system of the double standard'. The decision on whether to pursue any action on those citations lies with the Justice Department. So we already know what will come of this.

The privilege claim can be challenged in court. But Senator Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, the ranking Republican on the Judiciary Committee, has said the courts would be unlikely to resolve any challenge before Bush leaves office.

So, once again, the highest ranking republican on the committee has taken all of the steam out of committee chairman Leahy’s power by saying nothing will come of it so why bother. The ‘good ole boy’ network at its best. Specter deserves a big pat on the head and a treat from Bush for being a "good, obedient 'public' servant".

Bush claims the firings was handled properly yet three top Justice Department officials resigned and the U.S. Attorney General lied by saying ‘he doesn’t recall’. Bush’s version of what is proper differs greatly from what any morally responsible person of integrity determines to be proper.

By Gonzales choosing to hide behind his self-proclaimed weak memory’s ability to recall something as important as interrupting eight peoples lives, he has trivialized the lives of these same eight people.

Just another event that defines this poor excuse for a human being.

Gonzales says ‘I may have created confusion’. I laughed when I read this. He is trying to be contrite by saying this. Notice he didn’t actually admit to creating confusion, he says he ‘may have’ created confusion. If he is sincere, and somehow I doubt this possibility, he needs to go before the committee and ‘correct his testimony’, in other words, ‘undo his lies’. But of course we know he won’t do this. This ploy is nothing more than a political show for those naive fools who still believe in him.
