I'm looking for links with the contextual information, not the carefully edited shit Judson pulled off reddit.


Oh look, willful ignorance.

Lol Trump put this guy in the same category as Rosa Parks and Mother Theresa.

I love how idiots on the left like AOC are using Rosa Parks as an example. Pro athletes have been awarded it. A serial rapist has too.

They didn't know that Bill Cosby was a serial rapist when they gave it to him, genius.

Everyone knows Rush is a hatemonger.

"S/S or didn't happen" doesn't imply "context needed". You're moving goalposts.


The S/S was precisely because he knows that what he posted is not a full portrayal of Rush of those issues. For example, when he said Rush said this "And the same thing with cigarettes causing emphysema, lung cancer, heart disease" about "smoking," Rush said that about secondhand smoking. And Rush is right. But people want to latch onto the soundbytes.

Rush on smoking:

Quote
“Firsthand smoke takes 50 years to kill people, if it does. Not everybody that smokes gets cancer. Now, it’s true that everybody who smokes dies, but so does everyone who eats carrots.”


On second-hand smoking:

Quote
“That is a myth. That has been disproven at the World Health Organization and the report was suppressed.”

“There is no fatality whatsoever. There’s no even major sickness component associated with secondhand smoke. It may irritate you, and you may not like it, but it will not make you sick, and it will not kill you.”

He actively denied the dangers of second hand smoke for a very long time, well after it was proven beyond a reasonable doubt to still be dangerous. Yeah he might be right that it doesn't cause emphysema but you don't have to take a sound bite to get him on very obvious and harmful lies.
