I wish him the best of luck. The insidious thing about lung cancer is that you think your on top then you get a setback. Then you get good news and it’s an infection or small illness that does you in. It happened to my father so I know what he’s going through. Making it a year is a blessing.
I'm going to assume the silence here by DJimgo means no he has no direct quote. He is basing what he said on hearsay that's been pushed around the media. From my experience this is pretty typical of people who don't listen to him. It's why he calls the media drive by's.please post the actual link to where this was said and I'm legit asking. I see several people like Al Franken saying this was said but I can't find an actual quote where he called him a dirt bag.
The only legit quote I find on this topic is: "Jerry Garcia destroyed his life on drugs. And yet he's being honored, like some godlike figure. Our priorities are out of whack, folks."
And I personally don't see anything wrong with that statement. And it should be noted that I'm a Dead fan.

"When you strip it all away, Jerry Garcia destroyed his life on drugs. And yet he's being honored, like some godlike figure. Our priorities are out of whack, folks. He's just another dead drug addict" (Rush Limbaugh on Jerry Garcia, 8/11/95)
Preaches hate and intolerance to millions of mindless worshipers.

I never said anything about it being untrue.And what part of that isn't true?
I didn't view that as hateful at all . If he actually called Garcia a dirtbag like we were told he has by numerous people, then I would agree that is unnecessary. You've basically proved my point in all of this, Al Franken started a lie/misrepresented what Rush said. Saying he called Garcia a dirtbag which he quoted in his book "Rush Is A Big Fat Idiot". Left leaning media members push it through the echo chamber as if it is fact. People who don't even listen to Rush just assume it's a correct quote and he said it. I'll gladly admit I'm wrong if I see a quote from a transcript that says differently. And DJimgo used a fake quote as justification for why someone with lung cancer shouldn't receive any sympathy.I never said anything about it being untrue.
I said he preaches hate and intolerance...........I stand by that.
His Garcia comments are yet another example.
You're smarter than that.I don't view the truth as hate and intolerance, just uncomfortable for the weak of mind.
Rush has a long and well documented list of quotes that were intended to do nothing other than anger and divide.I didn't view that as hateful at all .

So, the truth IS uncomfortable for the weak of mind?You're smarter than that.
The truth can be stated in many different ways, and some truths don't need to be continually stated or even stated at all.
If your wife is fat, it's neither appropriate nor necessary for you to call her a fat a$$ 10 times a day. It's also neither appropriate nor necessary for someone in the general public to scream "you're grotesquely fat" when your wife walks by.
The "truth" that you choose to state and the way in which you state it shows your intent.
We all know what Rush's intent was.
All Rush did was to let people know that they weren't alone in their thinking. He let us know that things were ass backwards from the way they should be. He gave a voice to millions who feel the way he does.Rush has a long and well documented list of quotes that were intended to do nothing other than anger and divide.
