i'm guessing that amount (like in most other ebay auctions like this) will never get paid and that no one will really care that much. 10/18/2007 4:10:45 PM |

in order to even make a bid, you have to be pre-approved by the seller.
the money will happen.

I heard on Bortz the other day that Limbaugh nets like 2-3 million a month so matching a couple hundred thousand is nothing to him. Rush's advertising of the letter has been hilarious these past few days... it is a "genuine historic document", he has a pdf of it for free posted on his website apparently, I haven't bothered to look for it. Might be fun to post here if you were more crazy code savvy then I am. 10/18/2007 5:28:04 PM |

Holy shit, now Reid is TAKING CREDIT for the millions donated to charity:
Quote : | "But without qualification Mark May[sic], the owner of the network that has Rush Limbaugh, and Rush Limbaugh should know that this letter that they're auctioning is going to be something that raises money for a worthwhile cause. I don't know what we could do more important than helping to ensure that children of our fallen soldiers and police officers who have fallen in the line of duty have the opportunity for their children to have a good education," he said." |
His whole speech is littered with that whole "we" pronoun. Unbelievable. He had absolutely nothing to do with this and the money was raised IN SPITE of Reid, not because of Reid.
What a fucking disgrace of a blob of biomass.10/19/2007 8:32:51 PM |

The only thing the Democrats really have going for themselves at this point is the rapidly imploding Republican party. Not imploding to the point of self-destruction, mind you, but the entire Democratic platform at this point is really: "hey, at least we're not those guys." 10/19/2007 9:43:07 PM |

Holy Shit.
Holy Fucking Shit.
I can't believe this.
I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT FOR A MOMENT.
that I'd be sitting here, AGREEING with Rush Limbaugh, that the Democratic Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, is a sleazy lying son-of-bitch worm of a douchbag.

and if anyone thinks that Reid somehow was acting in good faith... take this challenge:
First, read the transcript of Harry Reid's speech, posted at rushlimbaugh.com (linked above ^)
Then, try and watch the C-SPAN broadcast of Harry Reid's 5-minute speech from the Senate floor, from start to finish -- http://www.breitbart.tv/html/6938.html
I'll bet you can't do it. I couldn't get past 0:30 without getting

So some partisan hack drastically overpaid for a nearly worthless letter to divert attention away from a pill popping,college drop out, right wing AM radio host that said that the only real soldiers are the ones that like being sent overseas to face unnecessary death for the benefit of narrow corporate interests?10/20/2007 3:23:49 AM |

please.
stop.
it's embarrassingly painful to watch you, or anyone, try to defend this.
i can't bear it anymore.
the Democratic Congressional leadership is like a gangrenous limb.
it has to be removed, or the whole body is going to die. 10/20/2007 3:36:22 AM |

The Democrats have no spine. The Republicans have lost their evangelical base. We're stuck in Iraq. The deficit keeps climbing. Healthcare makes headlines without making progress.
And people are shocked to see someone like Ron Paul flourishing in this debacle of a political climate 10/22/2007 12:25:10 AM |

its not just Harry Reid -- it's what Shaggy said early on:
Quote : | "The democrats are the party of total fucking failure. They cant do a goddamn thing in congress because they're [either] completely incompetent or more concerned with the 08 election than doing what they were put there to do.
So here are your choices 1) a party thats going to fuck you, send you the bill, and do whatever the fuck it wants. 2) a party thats going to unwittingly do what the other party wants and then complain because they were too dumb to figure it out." |
I gotta hand it to the Republicans. I mean, I disagree with half of their policies, and despise the other half... but you gotta respect their ability to get shit done.
it's just too bad that damn near everything they do focuses on their personal short-term gains at the expense of the long-term health and security of our country.
