Pity the Fat Bastard. He hasn’t been having a good time of it lately, what with his party’s credibility and image in the toilet, and his own image suffering from, well, his own words. And then there was this recent on-the-air exchange from a veteran, wherein said veteran takes the pill-popping jackass to school, hands his fat ass to him, and proceeds to wipe the floor with him rhetorically. The Eric Cartman of the airwaves didn’t appreciate his beat-down. I’ll let the transcript speak for itself, courtesy of MediaMatters.org:
LIMBAUGH: We’re going to go to Chicago. This is Charles. Charles, thank you for waiting and for calling. Great to have you here. Hello.
CALLER: Thanks, Rush. Rush, listen, I voted Republican, and I didn’t — really didn’t want to see Obama get in office. But, you know, Rush, you’re one reason to blame for this election, for the Republicans losing.
First of all, you kept harping about voting for Hillary. The second big issue is the — was the torture issue. I’m a veteran. We’re not supposed to be torturing these people. This is not Nazi Germany, Red China, or North Korea. There’s other ways of interrogating people, and you kept harping about it — “It’s OK,” or “It’s not really torture.” And it was just more than waterboarding. Some of these prisoners were killed under torture.
And it just — it was crazy for you to keep going on and on like Levin and Hannity and Hewitt. It’s like you’re all brainwashed.
And my last comment is, no matter what Obama does, you will still criticize him because I believe you’re brainwashed. You’re just — and I hate to say it — but I think you’re a brainwashed Nazi. Anyone who could believe in torture just has got to be – there’s got to be something wrong with them.
LIMBAUGH: You know —
CALLER: And I know Bush wanted to keep us safe and all of that, but we’re not supposed to be torturing these people.
LIMBAUGH: Charles, if anybody is admitting that they’re brainwashed it would be you.
CALLER: No, no, no, Rush. I don’t think so.
LIMBAUGH: Charles. Charles, Charles —
CALLER: You, Hannity, Hewitt, and Levin are all brainwashed and you know it.
LIMBAUGH: — you said — you said at the beginning of your phone call —
CALLER: Yeah.
LIMBAUGH: — that you didn’t want Obama in there —
CALLER: That’s right.
LIMBAUGH: — but you voted for him because of me.
CALLER: I didn’t vote for him. I voted for McCain. I voted Republican.
LIMBAUGH: Oh, so —
CALLER: I voted Republican.
LIMBAUGH: — you’re saying I turned people off to —
CALLER: You turned people off with all your — all this “vote for Hillary” and all this BS, because you must think people are really stupid.
LIMBAUGH: That was Operation Chaos. That was to keep the —
CALLER: You — no. It didn’t work.
LIMBAUGH: — chaos in the [unintelligible] of the Democrat primaries.
CALLER: It didn’t work. And now what we have with you Hannity, Levin, and Hewitt: sour grapes. That’s all we have. And believe me, I’m not — I’m more to the right than I am to the left.
LIMBAUGH: Oh, of course, you are.
CALLER: I am, and that’s —
LIMBAUGH: Of course, you are. You wouldn’t be calling here with all these sour grapes if you weren’t.
CALLER: Well, I’m so tired of listening to you —
LIMBAUGH: Oh, of course, you are.
CALLER: — go on and on with this — you’ve been brainwashed.
LIMBAUGH: I don’t know of anybody who died from torture. I do not ever —
CALLER: We are not supposed to torture people.
LIMBAUGH: I do not ever —
CALLER: Do you remember World War II, the Nazis? The Nuremberg Trials?
LIMBAUGH: I —
CALLER: Do you remember the Nuremberg Trials?
LIMBAUGH: Charles —
CALLER: Klaus Barbie?
LIMBAUGH: Charles, let me say —
CALLER: Huh?
LIMBAUGH: Barack Obama —
CALLER: What’s the matter with you?
LIMBAUGH: Barack —
CALLER: You never even served in a military.
LIMBAUGH: Barack Obama is —
CALLER: I served in the Marine Corps and the Army.
LIMBAUGH: Charles, Barack Obama is president of the United States today because of stupid, ignorant people who think like you do. You pose — you and your ignorance are the most expensive commodity this country has. You think you know everything. You don’t know diddly-squat.
You call me a Nazi? You call me somebody who supports torture and you want credibility on this program? You know, you’re just plain embarrassing and ludicrous. But it doesn’t surprise me that you’re the kind of Republican that our last candidate attracted. Because you’re no Republican at all based on what the hell you’ve said here.
Well, Rush, you really showed him. Since you hung up on the caller before he really had the chance to give you the thorough tongue-lashing you deserve, I’ll say right now what he was too much of a gentleman to say.
Rush, you’re a fucking coward. You’re nothing but a lily-livered, yellow-bellied chickenshit who ducked your chance to serve your country when it was your time. Oh, I’ve heard the excuses and frankly, I don’t believe them. Because you’re also a liar and a fraud. You’ve done nothing for this country. NOTHING. You lacked the courage to serve, and yet you support sending other people’s children off to die in a war that never should have been started. And worse, you have the nerve to criticize a true patriot? You need to understand something, you fat, ugly, worthless piece of human filth.
Veterans stick together. We may rib each other from time to time, and take shots at the other services, but when you attack one, you attack us all. We don’t take shit from civilian cowards like you.
You are a brainwashed Nazi. You and all your worthless, chickenshit pals on the extreme right – Hannity, Bachmann, Coulter, Malkin, Beck, Gingrich and all the rest. Not one of you is a patriot in any sense of the word. The caller was right on all counts, and the reason you cut him off is because, as per usual, you couldn’t refute any of his charges without getting your ass handed to you.
On the other hand, keep up the good work – you and the others I mentioned are the best gift the Republicans have given the Democrats in a long, long time. Every time one of you opens your mouth, you remind me of why I voted for Obama last year.
