Definitely a lock for the list if he makes it to the depths of December with a pulse still intact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,442 Posted February 3, 2020 Just now, Paul Bearer said: You mean he's like a shock jock? I think so. Ever seen The Simpsons where Sideshow Bob runs for Mayor? The DJ in that is based on him. (Awaiting the "NO" here...) I believe he's regarded as one of those public figures who paved the way for folk like Donald Trump, by going on and on about Clinton conspiracies, Obama's birth records, for years etc. He was a massive shill for the Bush government last decade especially on the fucking Iraq War.

Right then. He probably won't get a decent mention in our papers, maybe couple of lines on page 23 if he's lucky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,596 Posted February 3, 2020 I don't particularly like him, but I wouldn't wish anyone dead. If you've got that much anger inside you, says a lot about yourself. Also, it's one of the reasons why these guys get the crowds. They weaponise the vitriol and hate against them by saying "Look how crazy these people are. They want me dead. I must be doing something right. I'm saying something they don't want to be said". 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LB93 39 Posted February 3, 2020 I think he's fairly well known over here - I remember hearing about him during the Bush years before I started following current affairs. He won't lead the 10 o'clock news when he goes but I wouldn't be surprised if he makes it into all our papers. The Guardian would probably have a lot to say about him at least.

He's the most listened to radio show in the United States and has been a prominent face in the American Conservative movement for 3 decades. He gets 15.5 million listens per week, I assure you he'll be talked about worldwide when he passes. As for the people in this thread who seem to be critiquing those who are wishing an unhappy ending for Limbaugh. Rush has used his platform to peddle harmful lies for years and even though I don't wish death upon him, I'm not exactly going to shed any tears when he goes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly like when Thatcher died and people we celebrating in the street.Made the left a target from the right.I do think Limbaugh would be disappointed if certain people didn't wish him dead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
