That's pretty embarassing if true that he actually said that.

I used to love him but he seemed to fall off the sanity wagon sometime around 1995.

Why is it embarrassing? He is only saying what his listeners already know.

What is truly embarrassing is that some people actually believe that.

Well, from Whitewater on he pretty much had the same show every day.  Vince Foster and White Water, even after Clinton was out of office every day at noon we had the Vince Foster and Whitewater show.  Bound to have a negative effect on one's creativity and such.

Possibly.  I know that the only time he ever made sense to me was when I was on drugs.

Just another example of painting Obama as some sort of non-American closet Muslim sympathizer.  Nothing new.

My dad was a huge Rush Limbaugh fan and when I was a kid, I listened to a lot of Rush Limbaugh in my dad's car.  Back then, he was actually pretty funny.

Every once and a while, I'll put Rush on in the car when I go out for lunch, and it seems like he's no longer even remotely funny.  I'm not sure what the point of his show is if it doesn't provide any politically-oriented humor anymore.

In my angry Republican phase (92-94), I loved Rush. Femnazis was hilarious. And still is.

I listened to Rush when I was a senior in high school and it somehow got me laid because there was this cute girl who sat next to me in psychology who happened to be a huge Rush Limbaugh fan.

Thanks Rush.  :)

Bah, we had lots of Jung in there as well, not just Freud.  Also notables like Maslow, Pavlov, Milgram etc.  It was well rounded for high school.

Yeah. We had to pick one of psychology and philosophy. I picked philosophy, and it was full of dead retards too. "Maybe YOU lived in a cave, but the rest of the world has kinda moved on. Sheesh."

I had all the key highlights. It's also why I avoided tacking Psych 1 in college as long as I could as I'd already covered it all back in high school.

My teacher loved to give a pop-quiz every week!

He used to be pretty upfront about really being an entertainer (not to say that he didn't actually hold the views he advocated).  He seems to have forgotten that that's supposed to be his role.

Also had an amusing, if not decent, psychology class in high school- the teacher swore by a series of videotapes on the subject by Philip Zimbardo. His discomfort in discussing the Stanford Prison Experiment was delicious. :lol:
