Why Rush Limbaugh sucks

Rush Limbaugh is a big fat stupid idiot because he makes a lot of uninformed, angry statements that, if he had taken the time to research from an UNBIASED source, he might have talked differently about. For example one, he has been talking a lot about how his followers should "not fall for the Democrat head fake" and that "Obamacare should still be defeated”* without even knowing what the plan is for health care reform- he’s just calling those who support it “socialists”**. This is another reason he is a big fat stupid idiot- He uses name-calling as one of his main tactics. He throws around the word “Socialist” so much that it becomes synonymous with Democrat and loses meaning, and is just not in fact true. He also tries to make “socialist” synonymous with “communist”, which also, in fact, is not true- Canada has socialized healthcare, but that doesn’t mean they’re a bunch of Communists.

Another example of Rush Limbaugh being a big fat stupid idiot is when he said that “Barack Obama and Osama Bin Laden are on the same page”† - Why on Earth, if he had actually taken the time to figure out what President Obama stands for, and then what Osama Bin Laden stands for, would he label them as “on the same page?” They’re two completely different people, and I’m pretty sure President Obama would never tell people to suicide bomb buildings and roadsides.. Rush Limbaugh makes a lot of uninformed, angry statements that just aren't true and his only goal is to get people riled up against things he opposes for no good reason.
