limbaugh with a friend(Limbaugh and friend by darkblack)

Joan Walsh is worried about Rush Limbaugh:

I’m worried about Rush Limbaugh, I really am. He seems to be losing it.

Joan, honey, you know that I adore you, but I think you’re a couple years too late on that particular scoop. But, do go on:

There’s always been an element of entertainment to Limbaugh’s bully act, but lately he’s more thug than comic. Media Matters has the latest, from his Oct. 15 show: Limbaugh bragging that he once threatened a journalist doing a story on him. “We’re going to find out where your kids go to school. We’re going to find out who you knocked up in high school. We’re going to find out what drugs you used.” (emphasis mine)

Cos Rush has never done drugs in his life.

Limbaugh claims the result was a more positive spin on the story that was ultimately produced — of course, he won’t name names or publications, so we have no idea if it’s all a drug-induced fantasy — and the radio bully went on to promote that kind of treatment for other investigative reporters.

Limbaugh has spewed out some truly unhinged rants, but this one, oh, this one…it’s a whole new low:

“I’ll tell you, folks, the way to deal with this — I have always said it. I don’t know anybody who’s doing it. Maybe I should found ProDestroya and get a bunch of people willing to do investigative journalism on these investigative journalists.

Rush, we’ve got an organization like that. It’s called Media Matters.

Unless you’re talking about digging up a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with what the journalists are reporting and just trashes them for the sake of talking trash. That kind of catch-and-release dirt-mongering we leave to you conservative types.

You know, AntiPublica. They get to sit there — who are these people that get to act as though they are sin-free, that they are as clean and pure as the wind-driven snow, that they’ve got no skeletons in their closet? They can go out and dig up dirt on — and everybody’s got dirt. They can go out and dig whatever up and then they can slant it and taint it, smear it and lie about it, do whatever they want, and nobody examines who these people are. And if you try, they get mad. ‘Well, we’re journalists, we’re immune. You can’t treat us the way we treat other people.’”

Groan. What is he even talking about? I read this and all I really get is an awful mental image of all the various fat deposits on his frame jiggling and jouncing around with the force of his fauxtrage, from his change purse of a chin-wattle to the slabs of blubber dripping from the undersides of his upper arms, all the way to the bulging land-mass of his upper groin and belly, all quivering and trembling and shivering every which way in a symphony of flesh tectonics as he wallows in that poor, poor, overstrained chair in his home studio.

Ooh, I just made up a joke.

Q. Have you seen Rush Limbaugh’s penis in the last twenty years?

A. Yeah, well, neither has he.

But, hey, Joanie, ain’t you heard? Threatening to come to your house and beat you up is the new black for angry, Right Wing bloviators.

Bill O’Reilly via Media Matters:

On the September 27 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, while discussing media coverage of his recent controversial comments about race, Fox News host Bill O’Reilly asserted: “These people aren’t getting away with this. I’m going to go right where they live. Every corrupt media person in this country is on notice, right now. I’m coming after you.” He went on to warn: “You smear somebody and you can’t back it up, you’re gonna get it. … You go after somebody’s family, you go after them and smear them with defamation that you can’t back up, I’m coming to your house. I’m coming to your house. You’ll have a camera up your nose. OK?”

Uh…charmed, I’m sure.

Thing is, neither big pansy has even stuck a toe outside the doors of their secluded little studios. It’s all just talk, of course, which is all these guys do. It took wee, screechy Michelle Malkin to cross that line and actually start stalking people in their homes. As lamentable a decision as that may have been, she’s making you two jokers look like cringing, shrinking little human scrotums.

I particularly like this bit from O’Reilly’s unhinged rant:

After warning “corrupt media” figures that they are “on notice,” O’Reilly stated: “I’m coming after you. And I don’t care if it’s Bill O’Reilly, [Sen.] Hillary Clinton, [Republican presidential candidates] Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, [Sen.] Barack Obama. Anybody smeared by any media from now on, I’m holding them accountable. I’m going to hunt you down. Got that?

Well, is he going to be heading over to pay a visit to the Swiftboat Veterans for Truthiness? Mary Matalin? Victoria Toensing? Karl Rove, Ann Coulter, “Captain Ed”, Jeff Goldstein and his droogs and the coterie of mouth-breathers who run RedState.org? What about Matt Drudge? He’s, like, the epicenter earthquake that’s generated a kajillion slime tsunamis. Are you heading over to his house, Bill-O?

Well, then, dammit, Bill. What goddamn good are ya?
