He's Lost Something Alright

Rush Limbaugh regarding Cindy Sheehan's Iraq war protest:

"Frankly, I'm also fed up-not fed up. I retract that. I'm weary, ladies and gentlemen, of even having to express sympathy. 'Oh, she lost her son!' Yes, yes, yes, but (sigh) we all lose things."

Okay dumbass, we're not talking about someone's car keys, or a perscription for painkillers. She didn't misplace her son. Her son died fighting in a war that doesn't have much of a cause. And the cause we were originally given was a lie. She simply wants to know what good is going to come from her son's sacrifice. Is that such an out of line question? We should all be asking that and Bush should be giving us straight answers. Let's not forget he is an elected public official, so he works for us. It's not unreasonable for us to hold him accountable for his actions.

P.S. Mr. Limbaugh would you be so weary of expressing sympathy to a republican parent who 'lost' their son?

    I use to listen to Rush nad respect his opinion quite a lot. That all changed when the whole Terry Schaivo thing came around. I couldn't believe that he was on the right for that issue because I toought he had some common sense. So now with the Sheehan thing I see that he really is just a big moron who can't think for himslef. He's just a media slave for the Republican party. That's it. But his comment that "We all lose things" is just sick and desturbing.
