A reading of the DU comments was interesting. They are truely unhinged.

Entelechy – someone needs to tell Skeletor that if he wins, he just gets the papers and the case – he doesn’t get to control how the proceeds are spent.

You know, you buy something, you pay money, the money is then OWNED by the person you paid it to.

I know this is a hard concept for a liberal to understand, it will require patience to get it across.

Update: Following their leftist instincts, DU is trying to get the auction shut down.

It seems good for centrist and rightist Americans to find prudent means to punish the DU’s leaders and attorneys for such attempts to obstruct free exercise of speech and press rights.

Amazing how the left is so soft on crime, and yet, when one of them is mugged, they want to blame conservatives. do they not see the damage being done by the welfare and entitlement programs that they so strongly support.

I noticed that Feingold did not sign Reid’s letter. You have to respect him somewhat–even when you disagree with him. In fact, we should give a little bit of credit to the other eight Dems who did not sign.

On the other hand, I noticed that both Hilary and Obama did sign the letter. It will be fun asking ACLU people if they trust Hilary and Obama to pick Supreme Court judges?

DU “Why ebay’s allowing it is beyond my comprehension.”

Heh, only liberal things can now be sold on e-bay :) I always knew that only them s/b allowed to speak freely. Now I know everything about how things ought to work.

Says it all.

Colmes said last night that he’s bidding to win, so that he can turn the proceeds over to the ACLU – there are brains, I tell you…

That DU thread was hilarious. I especially liked where some of those pinheads decided in their fevered imaginations that the Combined Federal Campaign, which the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation is a part of, was just a front for the RNC. And that’s in spite of the fact that some of the tiny minority of sane posters tried to explain the CFC to them.

This whole auction is some serious excellence on Rush’s part. (Excellence In Bidding, perhaps?)

What the DU nuts, in their froth and fury, don’t realize is that to report an inappropriate item on ebay (their tactic to “shut down” the auction) they must be registered and logged in to their ebay accounts. That means ebay has a record of everyone who is abusing their reporting system.

A record, moonbats. Files. Archives. Your data is in the big machine, available to the NSA, FBI, even the NID. Ph3ar!!!1!

THANKS FOR THE DU LINK.THEY ARE ON THE VERGE OF COMMITTING MASS SUICIDE OVER THERE. THIS IS TOO DELICIOUS. GO RUSH!!!

The comments at DU are interesting. There’s a minority frantically trying to drag the lemmings back from the cliff; pointing out that this is hypocritical.

I particularly loved the comment that “If what Rush is doing is hate speech, 90% of what DU is saying is hate speech.” Ya think?

Anyway, good on Rush.

41 Fools Part 2: Rush 1, Fools 0…

The 41 Democrat Senators that signed the letter to Rush Limbaugh’s Syndication Company (Clear Channel) have been hoodwinked by Rushbo. Limbaugh has obtained their original letter and is auctioning it off on EBay with the proceeds …

If the Dems bought that letter back it would be big news again, and Rush would be ready to further humiliate them in hilarious ways that the whole country would hear about. I wish they would, but I doubt it.
They always exceed my expectations for stupidity, though.

Of course Rush is almost never wrong, but he missed it big time when he said Hillary wouldn’t run for Senate because she knew she couldn’t win.

Oh God was he wrong.

Of course, since they are insincere.

Where they are is bad for our country. I want them to turn around and become, if not friendly opponents, at least responsible opponents.

I like how the poster over at DU takes offense to Rush calling Reig “Dingy” immediately after he refers to Rush as “Limpballs”.

Will this become a part of the democratic platform to write signed letters to employers of people they dislike? I will say one thing good about all this and that is they are not legislating the business of the country and that is a good thing. They less they do the better off we are.

Wade on October 16, 2007 at 10:08 AM

Bizarre. Legislators writing a letter to the employer of someone who is giving speeches they don’t like. Legislators who hold means to put some level of hurt on the employer’s business. Is this Racketeering?

A racket is an illegal business, usually run as part of organized crime. Engaging in a racket is called racketeering.

Several forms of racket exist. The best-known is the protection racket, in which criminals demand money from businesses in exchange for the service of “protection” against crimes that the racketeers themselves instigate if unpaid … Wikpedia ‘racket’

These fools actually signed the letter.

The letter is priceless as are the comment tags in the DU link above. This letter should go to the Smithsonian because it will be the part of any honest history book.

The day we had signed proof that a segment of America had slid from Republic to Empire

[...] Rush put Harry Reid’s letter to his Clear Channel bosses up for auction. Classic! So let’s summarize this: The bills they send to the POTUS get vetoed, and the letters they send to get a person fired get auctioned! Failure comes to mind! Bookmark to: [...]

OT: Air America talk show host Randi Rhodes was assaulted outside her Manhattan apartment last night. A blogger that covers liberal talk radio is speculating that a right winger attacker Ms. Rhodes.

The Donks are just waiting to jump on this to prove their allegiance to our troops. Bah!

Would that be so wrong? They’re the ones always clamoring for “bipartisanship” and “reaching across the aisle”. But worry not, they won’t be sending any checks. Their idea of “supporting the troops” is bringing them home in humiliating defeat, not helping their kids get scholarships.
