Why Does Rush Limbaugh Hate Women and the Troops?

Of all the pundits who have cleared the path to the current battlefield that is mainstream political discussion, few can claim to have held the standard of bitter partisanship more than Rush Limbaugh or have wielded as much influence. His syndicated radio show reaches millions of listeners, and is the centerpiece of a mini-media empire that serves to dish out conservative propaganda to the masses. Constantly beating the drum for war and chastising Democrats and liberals for not supporting the military, it's amazing that someone who maintains positions such as these can take time out of his radio show to disresect and dishonor the women in the military currently serving in Iraq.

Limbaugh: The liberals did indeed bandy about, bang on the drums for women in combat. Now anyone with, it just isn’t right. Whether they can do it or not, that’s not what a cultured civilized society does to its women, they just don’t do it. Except in dire, dire circumstances, but yet they did. But yet we’ve not, they have in college, women should be allowed to place kick in college football, but they haven’t said a thing about women playing pro football, now why is that because they know it would be impossible. They know the average human being wouldn’t last more than two plays, the average woman wouldn’t even, it would be, they don’t even suggest it yet they do for the military? So what does it tell you they of the military? Its nothing but a little social playground for experimentation, by the way since they’re liberals they’d love to weaken it and love to tear it apart and cause all kinds of controversy and strife, and they do it under the guise of women’s rights, I’m sure there are some imminently qualified women in the military I am not talking about their ability to do, I am talking about the institution and what it says about a cultured civilized society that it will round up babes send them off to basic training and send them off to the foxholes. It can be done, but its not recommended.


So Limbaugh, who avoided military service in Vietnam by virtue of a pilonidal cyst (essentially a boil on his ass) has decided that he will not support the women who chose to volunteer for military service because, in some fashion it's not "civilized."

civilization is a stupid notion, and only used when one wants to normatively discredit something else that they don't like as being beneath on some heirarchy.

Limbaugh is a dumbass.

Civilization isn't a useless term. It just becomes blurred when used to promote political rhetoric.

Seriously, he changed his tune real quickly after the whole oxycontin thing, which is good, but you'd think he'd have a little compassion beforehand. ***holds breath***

I love reading transcripts of Limbaugh's radio shows. The poor jerk is very nearly incoherent.

Ya' don't have to be a card-carrying Taoist, though, to understand how an idiot like Rush could become so popular. It was inevitable. As is his demise.
