Party Of Love And Progress Rejoices Over Death Of Political Opponent

Via The Babylon Bee

U.S.—Within minutes of the news of the death of Rush Limbaugh, Democrats, well known as the party of love, empathy, and progress, began to rejoice over the death of their political opponent.

The party that is known for standing against hate in all its forms, the party that has chanted “Love Trumps Hate!” for the last four years, the party that calls the other side hateful bigots who will be on the wrong side of history for their opposition to love and tolerance, all cheered loudly and danced on Limbaugh’s grave on social media for much of the day Wednesday.

“Listen, hate has no home here — wait, Limbaugh’s dead? Wooohooooo!!!” shouted one progressive podcaster. “Today should be a national holiday!” She then jumped on Twitter and garnered thousands of likes and retweets for tweeting horrible things about a man she disagreed with.

Unfortunately for progressives everywhere, Limbaugh has announced he will continue broadcasting from the afterlife.

This is devastating, and I’m terribly saddened to learn of Rush’s passing. I’ve been listening to Rush for more than two decades. I knew things weren’t going well with his treatment, but hoped and prayed Rush would find a way through.

His talent will be returned to God and there will never be another like him. Rest in peace Rush, and I pray your family will find their way through this.

this is his obit in the ny times–rush was too important to ignore but start w/the pic,which shows him at his worst,then read the article–it doesn’t have anything positive to say & if you read between the lines,it calls those of us who listen to him a bunch of idiots–

Why would you care what the NYT says about anything? I swear, one of the biggest problems with our side is that many seem to seek the approval of our enemies. As if they are the arbiters of what is correct in our society. Fuck them. Why would you EVER read ANYTHING in the NYT?

pretty much agree w/you cc–somebody who thought the article was fair/balanced put it out on a list that i’m on so i put it here so people could see what we’re up against–

Hosannas from the child activists would be problematic. Their vitriol are garlands won at the end of the contest……Screw the nyt and their classless clown staff…..

The irony here is that Limbaugh should be appreciated by the Left. He was controlled opposition. His job was to keep conservatives on the reservation, and keep them from too vigorously resisting the agenda of the Left. The Left has been able to accomplish as much as it has in the last three decades largely because of Limbaugh.

He/she has obviously never listened to Rush. At least not for any length of time. I’ve been listening to him since I got back from Germany in 1990… Chip

I don’t think it’s appropriate to joke about Rush’s death …. especially by a Christian web site.

Babylon Bee should be ashamed of themselves.

RIP, Rush.

…To all who revel in his death, Rush doesn’t care what you say. Neither do we. You’re just showing the bitterness and hate Rush called out day after day…

Truth be told, I was glad when McCain croaked, I was glad when Ginsburg croaked and I’ll be glad when Pelosi croaks. Sorry not sorry.

If it weren’t for DNA tracing I could see an industrious person offering to go piss on the despised person’s grave for remuneration with the amount increasing based on how vile the person was.

Fast approaching the time when a notable’s greatness will be measured by how elaborate the funeral compared to that of St. George in 2020.
