MAYBE Rush Limbaugh isn’t a big fat idiot!

RUSH LIMBAUGH MUGSHOT

By l.t. Dravis

ON THE RADIO – Monday, October 20, 2008 – On or off OxyContin (can we ever be 100% certain with Rush?), Rush Limbaugh, the blowhard who prides himself on having an audience of millions of sycophants unable or unwilling to think for themselves (aka ‘dittoheads’), has divined that General Colin Powell endorsed Senator Barack Obama because Obama is black.

Powell endorsed Obama on MEET THE PRESS Sunday and Tom Brokaw asked about people who might “say this is an African-American, distinguished American, supporting another African-American because of race.”

General Powell responded by saying, “If I had only that in mind, I could have done this six, eight, ten months ago. I really have been going back and forth between somebody I have the highest respect and regard for, John McCain, and somebody I was getting to know, Barack Obama.

“And it was only in the last couple of months that I settled on this. And I can’t deny that it will be a historic event for an African-American to become president.

“And should that happen, all Americans should be proud – not just African-Americans, but all Americans . . . that we have reached this point in our national history where such a thing could happen. It will also not only electrify our country, I think it’ll electrify the world.”

Anyone who’s seen or heard General Powell’s endorsement of Senator Obama to be President of the United States understands that it was thoughtful, well presented, and completely based upon Powell’s assessment of Obama’s character, personality, temperament, and motivation.

Nevertheless, the big fat idiot sent an Email to Politico.Com that said, “Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race. Okay, fine. I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has endorsed. I’ll let you know what I come up with.”

The big fat idiot revealed an added dimension of stupidity when he continued the Email with, “I was also unaware of Powell’s dislike for John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy, and Antonin Scalia. I guess he regrets Reagan and Bush making him a four-star and Secretary of State and appointing his son (Michael Powell) to head the FCC. Yes, let’s hear it for transformational figures.”

That the big fat idiot completely missed the General’s reasoning speaks volumes about the big fat idiot’s inability to understand an American hero’s endorsement of a candidate who will be, as General Powell predicted, “a transformational figure”.

The big fat idiot proved the depth of his stupidity today when he went on the air and blathered, “Now back to General Powell. I-I-I-I-I-I just wanna button this up because the ‘drive-bys’ had a tizzy over my allegation that his nomination was about race. It, well, let me say it louder,” the idiot said, raising his voice to titillate his millions of ‘ditto-heads’, “and let me say it even more plainly. IT WAS TOTALLY ABOUT RACE! THE POWELL NOMINATION, OR, E-ENDORSEMENT, TOTAL, TOTALLY ABOUT RACE!”

If the big fat idiot had done his research, he would have known that Ronald Reagan didn’t ‘make’ Colin Powell a four-star General because George H.W. Bush was president when Lieutenant General Colin Powell was promoted to four-star General on April 4, 1989.

The big fat idiot (who, to my knowledge, never arose to the rank of four-star General) should also have known that no one ‘made’ Colin Powell a four-star General because after 31 years of distinguished military service, including combat tours in Vietnam and having been awarded the following medals and ribbons: Defense Distinguished Service Medal with 3 Oak Leaf Clusters, Distinguished Service Medal, Army with Oak Leaf Cluster, Defense Superior Service Medal, Legion of Merit with Oak Leaf Cluster, Soldier’s Medal, Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Air Medal, Joint Service Commendation Medal, Army Commendation Medal with 2 Oak Leaf Clusters, Presidential Medal of Freedom, National Defense Service Medal with 1 Bronze Service Star, Vietnam Service Medal with 1 Silver Service Star, Army Service Ribbon, Army Overseas Service Ribbon, Republic of Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation, Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal, United Kingdom Honorary Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath, French Legion d’honneur, and the Canadian Meritorious Service Cross, Lieutenant General Colin Powell was promoted to the rank of four-star General.

So, what should we think about the big fat idiot?

Is he just stupid?

Hard to believe that a big fat idiot who earns as much money as this one does could be too stupid.

Okay then . . . should we think he’s just another lying Republican political hack?

Not hardly . . . isn’t this the big fat idiot who told Republicans earlier this year to vote for Hillary Clinton instead of John McCain?

Alright then . . . if the big fat idiot isn’t stupid and if he isn’t just another lying Republican political hack, who is Rush Limbaugh?

As much as I hate to admit it, I may have been wrong . . . maybe the big fat idiot isn’t a big fat idiot after all.

In fact, I’m beginning to think the big fat idiot is nothing but a big fat phony who will say anything to get ratings.

Yeah but, if Rush Limbaugh is nothing but a big fat phony who will say anything to get ratings, why would anyone take him seriously?

Hmmmm?
