Rush Limbaugh & Pat Robertson Re: Haiti Quake

Well, maybe now people will better understand why so few of us on the left felt any sort of sympathy when the pig man was in the hospital.

Hmm. let me think about that.

Hmm.

Nope, I don't see it.

ETA: Never mind, I can't take this forum anymore. Hopeless cause is hopeless, I shall not return. Hip hip...

Erm, I like you, bro, but, broken record is broken.
 
Entire schools collapsed on scores of young children because their ancestors may have made a pact with the devil?

Robertson is simply evil.
 
I like how Limbaugh has a problem with the President calling a press conference immediately after a natural disaster that has left 45,000-50,000 dead and 3 million in urgent need while not immediately addressing the nation after a terrorist attack that only injured a Nigerian's private parts.
 
This board is extremely American centric. The amount of discussion about those two pricks who really should be ignored like the scum that they are greatly surpasses discussions about the actual disaster itself, and the efforts the entire world is sending there.

It always has to come back to your schizophrenic Right vs Left mindset.

Just my two cents.

While I do think that they get too much attention, I can't say I blame this board for that. When they stop being politically relevant, we'll stop talking about them. Robertson might almost be there, but Limbaugh still has way too much clout.

As for us talking about it more than the actual disaster, that's probably because there is more conflict, apart from the other politics thread.
 
Just a thought, if Obama is only helping Haiti because they are black does this now confirm that Bush didn't help New Orleans because it was mostly black? Granted I don't believe in either proposition but if you do accept the possibility of one wouldn't you have to consider the other?

I swear, if I didn't know Satan was the bad guy and Pat's god was the good one...

This is my point. They make a pact with the Devil to get out of slavery and then 200 years later God gets all up in their face over it and decides to kill a few tens of thousands of them, I'd set-up a shrine to my buddy, Beelzebub in a flash.
 
Could it be that Rush was taking a shot at Reid here about the light skinned black statement he made?

He is a huge antagonizer so I've gotta think he was taking a shot at Reid.

New Orleans received no help?
 
Sigh... Rush just keeps digging even deeper... :dig:

Rush Limbaugh 'meant' what he said about Haiti
Rush Limbaugh is not backing down from his claim that President Barack Obama is trying to score political points off the earthquake in Haiti.

Challenged by a caller during his show Thursday, Limbaugh said: “If I said it, I meant to say it, and I do believe that everything is political to this president.” ...

Wow, if Rush has people calling onto his show (getting past the screeners) who are giving him grief, that's saying something.

At least it seems that Pat Robertson has had the good sense to shut up.
 
You know, it's one thing to accuse the president of using the Haiti tragedy to his own political gain. (Which, even if true, would seem to me better than when the alternative -- natural disasters that actually make the President look worse... hint... hint.)

But Rush is going beyond that. He's telling people not to donate to Haitian relief efforts! That's beyond petty partisanship. That's just evil.
 
Rush Limbaugh has talent on loan from God. Speaking of God, these natural disasters should cause a crisis of faith, especially when religious leaders go ahead and say stupid things.

I'm doin' my part to make the world a less terrible place, but it doesn't involve donating a single dime to these relief efforts. No way, Jose... I'm saving up for my plastic surgeries.
 
It amazes me that Pat Robertson lives in the modern world in a so-called advanced society. The only way I can rationalize what he said with that fact is that he is simply insane.

Rush may have a point not so much about Obama politicizing the Haiti disaster relief, but about the left politicizing it. BO will simply rush over a nice helping of relief and aid to Haity, as he should. But now the AP, left-leaning political commentators, bloggers, and forum posters will draw political comparisons between BO & GB with Haiti and Katrina. He is right about that. But of course he and all the right-wing people are doing the same thing. The country is so divided, that's all anyone does anymore.

Not a big fan of the singer "Pink", but her comment after Kayne's behavior at the MTV music awards that Kayne was A Piece Of S--- was 100% on.
