Well. First of all, this post demonstartes how little you understand irony,
and sarcasism. If you truly understood Rush, you would know that he only refers
to 25 women in the United Staes as "feminazi's". And, to tell the truth, these
women to which he refers... that is the only accurate word to describe them.
Rush should be commended for his command of the English language. (Ditto's
Rush!) Whats the point of insulting TED KENNEDY?? What's the point of NOT
insulting Ted Kennedy? He is slime. He deserves whatever hell he gets in life.
This man is the epitome of bad government, the disgrace that he is a Senator
defames the integrity of the U.S. Congress. Rush should be commended for
remaining composed when talking about this cretin. Mario Cuomo too. Yet another
big government liberal that takes pleasure in screwing the people through
taxes. (and other means, right Gennifer?)

Oh. And of course you, in all your holiness, are going to lead us, the
wayward sheep, out of the mistruths that the Evil one himself has obviously
tricked us into believing in what he preaches. Yeah, Rush "Goebbels" Limbaugh.
Please, spare us your salvation. Perhaps it is YOU who has been brainwashed?

O.K. You are a leftist nut. And if you would kindly read on in the Dec. of
Ind., that is more than what you are able spew out since third grade, you will
find:

	"He has erected a multitude of new Offices, and sent hither Swarms
	 of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance."

What political philosophy do you think espouses this grievance? I'll give you
one clue: Bill Clinton is owned by them.
