Rush Limbaugh reminds me so much of John Wayne Gacy. I can't look at him without thinking that his house is full of clown accessories and stashed victims. #maureendowd
Oh Maureen, every time I think I'm quitting you because you've jumped the shark with your nicknames and critiques that infantalize in ways that just bug me, you go and do something wonderful like this. Brava. #maureendowd
"Now Limbaugh calls Obama the "man-child president."
The 48-year-old Obama is skinny and getting skinnier, but there’s nothing childish about him. He more or less raised himself and came to terms with his Oedipal demons on his own, and he radiates a hard-won maturity.
W., on the other hand, was like a kid who knew that Daddy’s friends would take care of him; he was always running off to the gym or going biking, leaving the governing to his regents, Cheney and Rummy, or incompetents like Brownie."
Thank you Ms. Dowd. It's like Rush is seeing another version of reality. #maureendowd
We may not be able to say anything about the addiction itself, but the scoring drugs from your maid just makes me think of a fifteen year old yuppie douche getting pot from the maid. It does seem immature, because frankly, if you want to do drugs, get a dealer like the rest of us. #maureendowd
Hey Maureen - if you want to snark on this guy, there's an abundance of character flaws to choose from. Laughing at someone's battle with addiction is not only insensitive, it's lazy writing. #maureendowd
Whoa, whoa, whoa... hold on. Rush Limbaugh "loved the end of the movie 'Love Story'?" WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?! Is the world ending? Oh dear lord, we probably cried at the exact same moment. This is shocking. SHOCKING! #maureendowd
Really, Dowd? You go after addiction? You know, racism, sexism, homophobia, political idiocy, a bad haircut, creepy disposition, and nonsensical rambling disguised as political thought were all good places to start in ripping this assclown to shreds. And you picked addiction. Way to go, journalism. #maureendowd
@Penny: Thank you. Having an addiction is not immature. No problem criticizing him for hypocrisy in things he has said about drug addicts, but not for the addiction itself. #maureendowd
@Penny: I don't think anyone has a problem with him using drugs and/or becoming an addict, it's just that he is such a fucking hypocrite about it. #maureendowd
@Penny: Well I think the idea is partially that if you're an addict maybe you should be a little less judgmental about other people's flaws, but that's not our boy Rush's style. #maureendowd
@Penny: Yeah, I feel like I've been super defensive lately, but it demeans an argument so much to go after someone's personal choices or battles like this. There are so many valid reasons to critique Limbaugh... Going after his personal struggle with addiction, which is an illness, is just a low blow, and I think it makes Dowd the immature one. #maureendowd
@Penny: I agree, but my guess is that she chose his painkiller addiction to go after because it's not really something that either side can argue with--it occurred and that's that. Slamming his racism/homophobia/sexism would have resulted in his supporters arguing that what he says isn't racist/homophobic/sexist and that Dowd is just another super-sensitive liberal. #maureendowd
Is this Shanna person the same woman who was married to really homely drummer with a lot of tatoos? And they had a reality show that I saw 15mins of a thousand years ago? If she is the same person, then I don't think she's in any position to judge anybody.
As much as I want to punch Carri Prejean in the face for shoving her rubbish down my throat...I find it incredibly difficult to get on board with ANYTHING shana moakler says. The woman just womes off as bitchy, mean, and petty. Ugh, I know my mom says its a strong word, but i fing hate this woman.

Maureen Dowd, Go Tell Him.
Did Rush Limbaugh Just Get Told?
Yes?

Just because he would sink to the level of taking someone to task on an addiction doesn't mean I will. #maureendowd
