Welles' War guys were from Mars and had no understanding of earth (read the script). They just were destroyers. Rush also appears to be from Mars and he too has this streak in him that seems to want to destroy....well yes it is a stretch but reading the banter about his Haitian comments does give one pause.
Let’s recap:
On Wednesday Limbaugh spoke with a caller from North Carolina and asked, "Would you trust the money's gonna go to Haiti?" The caller answered no and then Limbaugh continued "But would you trust that your name is gonna end up on the mailing list for the Obama people to start asking you for campaign donations for him and other causes?"
The caller agreed and Limbaugh added another dig at the White House, "Besides, we've already donated to Haiti. It's called the U.S. income tax."
In the most controversial remarks made during the show, Limbaugh said, "This will play right into Obama's hands. He's humanitarian, compassionate. They'll use this to burnish their, shall we say, 'credibility' with the black community -- in the both light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country. It's made-to-order for them."
Politico.com reported that Limbaugh took criticism from both the right for his remarks, but that the host is standing by them. On his show Thursday Limbaugh said "Everything this president sees is a political opportunity, including Haiti, and he will use it to burnish his credentials with minorities in this country and around the world, and to accuse Republicans of having no compassion."
On Thursday movie critic Roger Ebert slammed Limbaugh for his comments writing, "You should be horse-whipped for the insult you have paid to the highest office of our nation."
Jon Stewart of "The Daily Show" also responded to Limbaugh's remarks. "I think I know the cause of your heart trouble: you don't have one," he said Wednesday. Stewart also (in so many words) told Rev. Pat Robertson to be quiet .
On his Christian Broadcasting Network's "700 Club" on Wednesday Robertson said, "You know ... something happened a long time ago in Haiti. ... They got together and swore a pact to the Devil."
I don't know why I brought Pat Robertson into this...perhaps he will gain some weight.
