ONE CALL TELLS IT ALL
On Monday Rush Limbaugh took a phone call from a person identifying himself as David, a physician from Norfolk, Virginia. The caller started by defending Senator Durbin's recent comments about Gitmo prison torture and took it a step further, calling for Bush and Rumsfeld to he held accountable for all those atrocities going on down there.
Dr. David was not content with American justice for Bush and Rumsfeld demanding they be placed on trial at an international court in the Netherlands.
"How many innocent people did they kill", asked the doctor.
At this point Limbaugh interjected that Gitmo prisoners were not being mistreated. None of them have lost their heads. None of them have been murdered. None of them have been car bombed. A frustrated Rush asked the doctor how in the world he could possibly see Gitmo or the rest of the world the way he did.
"How many people died when Bush lied to us about this war," asked the mad doctor. Bush didn't lie, asserted Limbaugh.
"How about the Downing Street Memo", asked Dr. David.
"That memo," said Rush, "did not say anything of substance and may be a fake". Still the doctor pushed onward telling Rush that Bush has a low I.Q.
Rush asked the doctor if he ever woke up in the morning happy. Did he ever smile, asked Rush. But the doctor marched on, reminding Rush that Bush is destroying the environment. Rush invited the caller to recite the whole litany held by the Bush haters.
The doctor asked if we were running out of oil.
"No," said Rush. He then asked the caller how he could go through life being as wrong as he was. "You haven't said one thing that's correct," said Rush.
At this point the conversation became much more honest. The caller reminded Rush that Karl Marx had written that religion was the opium of the masses. Sensing now that the caller was, in fact a Communist, Rush asked the doctor to identify his source of income.
"The patients I treat," said the doctor.
"Wrong," said Rush. "Government pays you. Health insurance pays you, just like Karl Marx would have wanted it."
The doctor returned to the Marx theory of religion. The 9/11 hijackers were on the opium of religion. That's what made them hijackers. Religion is the villain.
"Do you believe in God," Rush asked David.
"No," he replied. And he then said he could prove in two minutes there was no God.
"Would a God have created us with all that crap inside us that has to come out of us all the time?" he asked. "Would he have created women so they have to have a period every month?"
Rush instinctively saw an opportunity for humor.
"I so believe in God," said Rush, "that when people like you get to heaven I believe it will make you crap."
"You are the American Taliban," David yelled back.
"Why did you come to this country," asked Rush.
"I came for adventure, to see the world," said David.
With the conversation nearly at an end, Rush accused David of wanting to destroy this country. But David entered new territory, invoking Halliburton, Enron and corporate greed as the reason for war.
"I can't believe you ever made it through medical school, David," said Rush.
In conclusion Rush reviewed what movies David had recently seen.
"Fahrenheit 911," David answered.
Rush told the audience a few minutes later, "And we thought we had problems with the lawyers, folks. Now we have to worry about the doctors, too!"
Amen, Rush, Amen. Especially when they're Communists.
