FATS LIMBAUGH IS A CLOSET SOCIALIST!!!!

Fats went on a rant about the evils of liberalism, socialism , environmentalism, etc., basically the same shit he's been peddling for years. What is curious is his lament for the pride we used to have in our country and more curious is the example he gave: NASA.

Let me point out what should be obvious: NASA is a big-government, socialist program!

Here's Fats in his own words:

The Time Has Come to Say, "Stop!"

June 9, 2008

RUSH:...How many of you last night watched this great Discovery program called When We Left Earth? It's six hours; the first two were last night. They have gotten to the cold storage vaults of NASA. They have 500 hours of film. Some of it is not before seen. Most of it has been if you know where to look. Some of it's new, only it hasn't been seen. They remastered it in HD and they started the first two episodes last night. I was alive during all this. I remembered all of it. I remembered every one of those Gemini launches. I remembered the Mercury loses. I remember Gus Grissom losing his space capsule when he blew the hatch early on his Mercury flight. What I had forgotten, even though I instinctively knew it -- and what reminded me because I've been speaking about it recently -- was how damn proud everybody in this country was, including the media, of what we were doing with the manned space program.

RUSH: So I'm watching When We Left Earth last night on the Discovery Channel. I, of course, as a powerful influential member of the media, am watching it in HD on my big screen and I can't pull myself away from it, even though I know it all, I've seen it. But the things I'd forgotten a little, just how damn proud everybody in this country was and around the world in listening to commentary. They went out and interviewed media people of that time, Jay Barbree, NBC, he was their guy on the spot, so excited, so proud. NBC had a reporter at NASA that was so proud of what this country was doing. Now I know it was an effort inspired by JFK, Democrat and so forth, but that really didn't have much to do with it.

RUSH:...Back to this TV show on the Discovery Channel last night.

Jay Barbree, NBC news, who covered much of the space program up until recently and still does some consulting work for them, talked about NASA being the most exciting place there is. We were launching Gemini rockets every six weeks. We did some of the most incredible things. We accomplished some of the most unimaginable objectives -- and all the while, we had a media echo chamber that was telling us, "Yes, these are good things and we should be proud."

RUSH:...That show last night -- and there are two more episodes the next two Sunday nights at 9:00 Eastern -- shows America at its best. People dropped to their knees and prayed. NASA was the greatest place in the world. These guys, these astronauts, they were all heroes.
