You didn't explain anything about context. You only explained your own personal reasons for defending the dirtbag.
Totally wrong. And now you're looking like a fool. An analogy.
Bob and Fred get into a argument at a bar. They are sitting next to Zach. The argument escalates. There is a fight. Zach watches it all.
Rex wasn't there and reads about the fight on "I Hate Bob. com" and concludes that Bob is at fault.
Who knows the context? Me or you?

The audio excerpts and the transcripts prove everything I said.
Wrong. The excerpts were out of context. Don't you know what the word means? Rush ran the excerpts you linked and DESTROYED them.
quote:
Did he today deny his own words from yesterday?
No. He stood by every word. He did not back walk anything. He simply explained why your websites were distorting and lying. You really should stop lying, Rex.
Why don't you listen to Rush and then critique him in context?

@ the back tracking This is the same guy that said Chris Nolan was trying to make Romney look bad by naming his Batman villain Bane right before the election

That's not what he said, but continue to enjoy the bliss of ignorance.

Nope. He didn't. That was out of context. Why don't you listen instead of reading media matters? It makes you look really ignorant when discussing it with someone who listens.

RUSH: Have you heard this new movie, the Batman movie, what is it, The Dark Knight Lights Up or whatever the name is. That's right, Dark Knight Rises. Lights Up, same thing. Do you know the name of the villain in this movie? Bane. The villain in The Dark Knight Rises is named Bane, B-a-n-e. What is the name of the venture capital firm that Romney ran and around which there's now this make-believe controversy? Bain. The movie has been in the works for a long time. The release date's been known, summer 2012 for a long time. Do you think that it is accidental that the name of the really vicious fire breathing four eyed whatever it is villain in this movie is named Bane?
Explain how that's out of context

Hey, Rex. Rush just spent his first 20 minutes blowing your link out of the water. Proving that it was out of context on purpose point by point.

Absolutely pathetic that you fell for it.

He can't.

Just like his Messiah, his entire political philosophy is a complete f*cking joke.

No, it's not. I posted three segments where he directly linked Williams's suicide to his leftist attitudes.

there is nothing wrong with MM other than the fact that they only expose right wingers. I do wish they were equal opportunists but the work they do is good.

Not that you actually care, but here is the expanded transcript of the Bane comments:
quote:
So, anyway, this evil villain in the new Batman movie is named Bane. And there's now a discussion out there as to whether or not this is purposeful and whether or not it will influence voters. It's gonna have a lot of people. This movie, the audience is gonna be huge. A lot of people are gonna see the movie, and it's a lot of brain-dead people, entertainment, the pop culture crowd, and they're gonna hear Bane in the movie and they're gonna associate Bain. The thought is that when they start paying attention to the campaign later in the year, and Obama and the Democrats keep talking about Bain, Romney and Bain, that these people will think back to the Batman movie, "Oh, yeah, I know who that is." (laughing) There are some people who think it'll work. Others think you're really underestimating the American people to think that will work.
quote:
The Bane character in this movie was a terrorist. He's out to destroy Gotham, New York City, which is the case in every Batman movie. But instead of sounding like Romney, he sounds like an Occupy Wall Street guy, in truth. Now, there's a story in the Washington Times Communities today: "Is Mitt Romney...Batman? -- Opponents of Mitt Romney have noticed that the name of Batman’s villain in the upcoming film The Dark Knight Rises is homonymous with the name of an investment firm that Romney founded in 1984. The childish 'aha' moment was not unpredictable. Americans have tolerated condescension remarkably well for the past four years, so we can presumably take an insult to our ability to spell -- or ability to follow a storyline, for that matter."
But, anyway, I didn't really know what the point of this story is. They're trying to point out that in Batman the good guy and the rich guy are one and the same, and that's Bruce Wayne. And so what this gal is saying here is: Hey, instead of falling in with the evil guy being Bane, let's just say Batman is Romney. Batman's Romney, he's the evil rich guy, he's the good rich guy, he's out to save New York. The rich guy's the good guy. Of course the evil guy is always rich too in these Batman movies. You may think it's ridiculous, I'm just telling you this is the kind of stuff the Obama team is lining up. The kind of people who would draw this comparison are the kind of people that they are campaigning to. These are the kind of people that they are attempting to appeal to.

I would have a lot more respect for you and the lib-progs here if y'all actually listened to Rush and commented about what he says. I dont think I've ever seen a post by a lib-prog here critiquing his comments as you heard them in their context.
You people lack even the slightest bit of intellectual curiosity. Stop letting Think Progress,Media Matters, and MSNBC do your thinking for you.

I don't know if you're just being intellectually dishonest or if you're just so in the tank that you can't see it, but those extended comments really don't do him any favors.

I just think you're dealing with cognitive dissonance about what conservatism in this country actually is so rather than think critically about it you just lash out at the messenger, in this case MM.
Like I said, I do wish they went after democrats too because they are just as full of shite.

Are you mildly retarded? The extended comments reveal that he was discussing something written in a newspaper about Bane/Bain when you accused him of making the connection first.
I'm a generous person and I'm willing to accept your apology.

Media Matters regularly drives out-of-context misrepresentations carried as "truth" on JournoList and the major networks. Care to cite a comparable conservative source carried as "factual"?

Wrong. People generally spend 20 minutes explaining why you are lying POS. He reveled in it. No retraction. Absolute victory.
