Didn't limbaugh say he was moving to Costa Rica if healthcare passed? What's keeping him? Let's start an online campaign to wish him good-bye. And good riddance.

Rush Limbaugh is not moving anywhere. I`ve driven by his Mansion on the Ocean in Palm Beach, FL where he "Broadcasts" his show. Funny how he was able to get a zoning variance to run a commercial office inside his Mansion located in a Residential Zoned area? Wonder if he would have protested if his "buddy" Al Franken was doing the same on" Air America" before it folded, in (his) neighborhood had Rush not been doing the same? If he does move to Costa Rica, will he still use his " domestic servants" to go drug/pill shopping for him or find a local doctor to write a prescription for Viagra (in the doctors name) so that he would`nt be embarrassed that he suffered Erectile Dysfunction should someone find (his) pill bottle? How vain but obviously non-virile these cold hearted, right wing Republican conservatives are. Remember Larry Craig, picked up playing (footsie) with a male undercover cop at the Minn/StPaul Airport Mens Room? He said, his foot entered the other occupants stall due to his (wide stance)! LMAO

Cleo`s Mom, I`ve been carping on the same subject matter on and off this blog for months. These "Patriots" might just as well slip on their KKK (sheets) or their Nazi (brown shirts) and start (goose stepping). They always bring ideological matters up as a pretense to their protest, but their under belly shrieks of racial hatred. The Democrats and Liberals are going to take away their Guns. Obama has NEVER mentioned a word about any agenda to change gun ownership law yet there has been a (run) on ammunition purchases since he came to office. Next up, their favorite, Abortion or Pro-Choice, which by the way was supposed to have been settled years ago with Roe vs Wade. Don`t want an Abortion... don`t have one! The same Old Men that refused a Women`s right to vote want to control their reproductive rights as well. Its a riot, its always a bunch of ole white corroded broken down men that suffer (erectile dysfunction) and eat Viagra and Cialis tablets like M & M`s with no positive results and still can`t get it up, want to control a women`s right to make (her) decision. Until a male can get pregnant, regardless of what side of this issue your on, its a women`s issue..period! And like I`ve stated before, look at the makeup of those that attend the Pro-Life Rally`s. Almost All White protesters. Because of a long waiting list for (white baby`s), just ask Supreme Court Justice Robert`s, these Pro-Life protesters what to assure that every white fetus is delivered to allow an opportunity to a couple that is childless and waiting patiently for their turn in line. There is not shortage of available Latino or Black babies waiting to be adopted,....go figure?

Bravo Phil, couldnt have said it better myself.

Hate and lies sell and he's living the good life off of it. Another big right wing hypocrite.

And BTW - you can get close enough to his mansion to see it? No gated community and armed guards?

I haven't watched Rachel Maddow since the vote but I wouldn't be surprised if she is calling for Limbaugh to put his money where his mouth is and get the heck out of Dodge.

As if we need any more examples about what the true nature of the teabaggers - here's another one:

w_masthead_noads.jpg

Rep. Louise Slaughter's (D-NY) CHILDREN get death threat

Tue Mar 23, 2010 at 10:07:11 AM PDT

(via Balloon Juice)

It's starting. Both Reps. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) and Louise Slaughter had their local district offices vandalized shortly after they voted yes on the health care bill. But WHAM reports a much more disturbing update.

Last Thursday she received a chilling recorded message at her campaign office.
"
Assassinate
is the word they used... toward the
children
of lawmakers who voted yes."

Do you see how f*****g sick these people are now? They are advocating violence towards the CHILDREN of Congressmen that voted for health care. Let that sink in. I fear all this is coming to a head, and that the epithets hurled at our Congressmen this weekend was only the beginning.

And yes, I squarely place the blame on Fox News and right-wing talk radio for fanning the flames of this violent mood in this country.


Balloon juice notes that a teabagging blogger has actually taken credit for inspiring the vandalism. It's an Alabama blog called "Sipsey Street Irregulars". His excuse to every sane person's charge that this can lead to violence is this:

Breaking windows is, by definition, violence to property. It is not violence to people.

"I’m advocating broken windows. I’m advocating vandalism," says Mike Vanderboegh. We spoke to him by phone from his home in Pinson, Alabama.

Vanderboegh is referring to his blog called Sipsey Street Irregulars. He says his invitation to "break windows...break them now" is behind the incident in Rochester and at least two others in Tucson and Kansas. The message to Democrats should be clear.

....

Vanderboegh denies his blog advocates anything but vandalism. "How ambiguous is it if I say break windows? Am I saying kill people, absolutely not."

We're dealing with a pretty sick puppy here. And as Balloon Juice's mistermix noted, the guy is actually on Social Security disability to boot. Now, he claims he's not responsible for any death threats, just the vandalism.

For any lawyers out there, if this guy is openly calling for vandalism of Congressional offices, isn't he breaking some law? Say, the Patriot Act?

:

DOMESTIC TERRORISM DEFINED- Section 2331 of title 18, United States Code, is amended—

`(5) the term `domestic terrorism’ means activities that—

`(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;

`(:smile: appear to be intended—

`(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;

`(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or

`(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and

`© occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.’.

So now the teabaggers are going after kids? Can they sink any lower? Probably.

They've proven over and over that nothing is beneath them. They're in a frenzy and they're out of control.

I've lived when there was anarchy and riots and killing and mayhem. I sure don't want that for the United States, but they're sure pushing the cap off the bottle that has kept the boiling turmoil within this country from bursting forth.

We need to march on the Limbaugh compound and Fox news and Rupert Murdoch's place until they stop the "inciting to riot" rehtoric.

coffee talk anyone?

After Congressman Randy Neugebauer`s "shout out" the other night (Baby Killer) at Congressman Bart Stupak....a devote Roman Catholic/Pro Life/Anti-Abortion/Conservative Democrat from Michigan, I`d be ashamed I was from Texas too unless I was fortunate to be from Austin, (which does`nt even belong in that state). I think it would safe to assume if your going to stick an (enema) into the USA, the best place to insert it would be in Congressman`s Neugebauer`s district of Lubbock, TX. You would`nt even need to use KY Lubricant there!

PS Great name for the Product, using a States abbreviation for it! Isn`t that where Mitch McConnell and Jim Bonner is from?

These people are domestic terrorists. If Timothy McVeigh hadn't been put to death for being a domestic terrorist, he would be a member of the tea party.

First of all, I am not your dear. Secondly, when someone or some group is racist, I call it like I see it.

When a group holds up signs with the N word, calls black representatives racial slurs and spits on them, then I accurately call them racists.

And BTW, I knew it wasn't your last word on the subject.

Was it really the WHOLE group? Or was it some guy? One person. But go ahead and call that one guy like you see em.:smile:

These were all separate incidences -

- the N sign guy- 38 days after Pres. Obama was elected. This guy being an organizer of the tea party

-the guy who threw money at the person with parkinson's

-the people who shouted and harrassed and called the man with parkinson's a communist

-the teabaggers (plural) who called black elected congressmen racial slurs

-the teabaggers (plural) who called Barney Frank an anti-gay slur

-the teabagger who spit on a black representative (he declined to press charges)

-those who advocate an overthrow of the government

-those who advocate throwing bricks through the windows of those who voted yes to healthcare.

So you can add terrorists to the list with racists. But hey, you said you stand with them. No surprise there. Just like there was no surprise when it wasn't your last word on the subject. :thumbup:

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
