I'm gonna let Mr. Morganfield give my response:

My brother-in-law is a Fundamentalist Christianist; his #1 hero is Ray-guns. He sends my father-in-law Rush Limbaugh material contantly. Now he is fairly Fundamentlist himself, and Republican himself. My husband just visted there this week, and even pop-in-law is disgusted by Limburger. My husband asked the obvious question: How can Brother act like a Christian-on-high, yet buy this guy's evil, lying sctick?
No comment. But! ::::
Here is my puny prediction. I am in an uptick mood, for several tiny reasons: Please listen; I may post it everywhere and always. It's one of the best covers of one of the best songs ever.

Blast it; you'll be glad.

Don't let the bastards get you down, Mr. Day. You have something those phoneys don't. Intelligent compassion. They can only wish they were a Beautiful Day ;o)

The heart is a bloom,
shoots up through stony ground
But there's no room,
no space to rent in this town
You're out of luck
and the reason that you had to care,
The traffic is stuck
and you're not moving anywhere.
You thought you'd found a friend
to take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
in return for grace

It's a beautiful day,
the sky falls
And you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
but you've got no destination
You're in the mud,
in the maze of her imagination
You love this town
even if it doesn't ring true
You've been all over
and it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

Touch me,
take me to that other place
Teach me,
I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out

It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
A beautiful day

Touch me,
take me to that other place
Reach me,
I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have
you don't need it now
What you don't know
you can feel it somehow
What you don't have
you don't need it now
You don't need it now
It was a
Beautiful Day

Don't let it get away, my friend.

I have been called away for a while. Not too long, I hope. I'll catch up with NORTHCO when I return. I'm quite sure those orange critters are just covered with Cheetos dust. But, the blue dog puzzles me. Blue Dog? Oh, noes, Mr. Day. Oh, noes.

This is another take on defining something in misleading ways for consumption by an unwary or stupid public. Rush and many others just like him know some significant portion of the public is dumber than hell and they'll take advantage of that every chance they get to support their own agenda.

For all of recorded history persons who have a soapbox in the public forum have done exactly what we are witnessing right now. I've zero expectation this will ever change. Human nature has locked and bolted the door to that possibility. The only available solution is to erect your own soapbox alongside the other guy and call him a liar. And hawk your own brand of soap to those same dumb bastards who so proudly wear their ass hats. And yes. I am growing more cynical by the day.

What to say about Rush? Suffers from hoof-in-mouth disease?

Love the whining Beck pic... classic!

That is *one* son-of-a-pic you posted Dickday.

"Big girls don't cry!"

Ouch!

You know, Limbaugh's take on a "man-child" is something we've seen before. It wasn't that long ago that he was telling us all about pre-war Nazi Germany and how that mirrored Obama. His scholarly depiction of pre-war Germany was totally wrong and fantasized, just like his reference to this man-child term.

It is interesting. A big fat uneducated idiot and drug addict, knowing nothing really about policy or the practical aspects of politics, or law, making millions by taking on the President of the United States. Which President was editor of Harvard Law Review, Professor for many years of Constitutional Law at U. Chicago, lawmaker, Senator. And Limbaugh's bloviations need not be accurate, and he pays no price for his countless errors.

Wow! Rec'd.

I have a different association with the term Manchild. I have read Claude Brown's Manchild in the promised land. The story is about a boy growing up in Harlem. If Rush knows about this reference, perhaps he is suggesting Obama is a thief. The novel concerns itself with the details of that career. For instance:

I wouldn't have taken all tens, but to ring the cash register without anybody seeing me, I had to stoop down below the counter and reach up to the cash register. I would push down real slow on one key and hold the drawer with my other hand, letting it come out as quiet as I could. When I got the drawer out far enough to get my hand in it, I would let the key up real slowly, grab a handful of bills from three slots, and push the drawer back in. Not having anyone to lay chickie for me, I had to do it quicker than most of the time. So I just took the first bills I got my hands.

Of course, in the past, when I have heard of people talking about a man-child, they were referring to a boy. This is Rush's way of calling Obama "boy" without actually saying it, as in "hey, boy, don't you get all uppity with us white folk."
