Johnny Haircut sends his wife out to attack Rush.

[Recliner Pilot 61]

This chump is such a joke.

 

 

 

An Air America producer just sent over some transcript from an interview their Richard Greene (not our Richard Greene) conducted with Elizabeth Edwards, in which she questioned Rush Limbaugh's Vietnam exemption:

 

My classmates went to Vietnam, he did not. He was 4F. He had a medical disability, the same medical disability that probably should have stopped him from spending a lifetime in a radio announcer’s chair; but it is true, isn’t it? If he has an inoperable position that allows him not to serve, presumably it should not allow him to sit for long periods of time the way he does. I think this is a serious enough offense for the people who fund him, who buy ads and allow him to be on the air, need to be asked if this is what they really stand for, do they think it is all right for someone who has never served to denigrate the men and women who have simply because they are expressing an opinion. Frankly, I thought that is what we are fighting for.

I agree. Limbaugh is the biggest chump on the air. Does anyone still listen to theis joke?

[30 Fat, Bald & Texan 5]

Rush is a doosh but for this b!tch to bring up the fact he has an inoperable disease that will lead to his complete blindness is just edjrish.

[Recliner Pilot 61]

I agree.

 

 

You agree Edwards is a joke?

Exactly what disease did she bring up that Rush has that is inoperable and will cause his complete blindness? In the quote RP provided, it's talking about why Limbaugh was classified 1Y, then 4F---A doctor determined he had a pilonidal cyst.

Pilonidal cysts are pockets of skin in the crease of the buttocks near the end of the tailbone (coccyx). They usually begin where ingrown hairs push into the folds of the skin, which irritates and inflames the skin.

 

Not everything about pilonidal cysts is understood, but there are several well-known facts. Men are affected two to three times more often than are women, and the cysts typically affect those younger than 40.

 

Pilonidal cysts often cause discomfort. But the main concern is infection, which can result in a painful abscess. Treatment includes removing hair from the area and surgery to open and drain the cyst.

I never claimed or was implying it wasn't a disqualifying condition, Hell, I even state he was 1-Y then reclassified 4-F. Geez, when no one argues with you, you make up arguments.

[MDC 8,348]

The partisan fringe right of the GOP - Coulter, Limbaugh, Malkin, etc. - only care about the troops insofar as they're useful for political purposes. They have no problem with denigrating the troops or their service when it's inconvenient. For example, the way they trashed John Kerry's military service. I think John Kerry is a total doosh, but it was totally shameless to rip his voluntary sacrifice and it reflects very poorly on Bush and Cheney's lack of courage and character. If the White House announced tomorrow they were pulling all troops out of Iraq, Rush Limbaugh would be the first person leading the charge to say it was a good idea, because he's a big fat idiot and everything he says is calculated to help his favorite team. The man has no integrity.

 

Before someone tells me the Dems have the same thing with MoveOn, you are totally right and that's a failing of the party. Instead of trying to maintain the high road they've stooped to fighting fire with fire, and now we have partisan idiots arguing with each other instead of trying to solve problems.

[Recliner Pilot 61]

What I cut and pasted was the entire text from the MayoClinic site on Pilonidal Cysts.

 

Really? The ENTIRE text? Below is the "entire text" from the MayoClinic site on Pilonidal Cysts. What you cut and pasted is in bold.

 

 

 

Introduction

Pilonidal cysts are pockets of skin in the crease of the buttocks near the end of the tailbone (coccyx). They usually begin where ingrown hairs push into the folds of the skin, which irritates and inflames the skin.

 

Not everything about pilonidal cysts is understood, but there are several well-known facts. Men are affected two to three times more often than are women, and the cysts typically affect those younger than 40.

 

Pilonidal cysts often cause discomfort. But the main concern is infection, which can result in a painful abscess. Treatment includes removing hair from the area and surgery to open and drain the cyst.

 

Signs and symptoms

 

The first sign of a pilonidal cyst is often a slight lump that can be felt over the tailbone in the buttock crease. If the pilonidal cyst becomes larger and inflamed, you may notice pain in the area of your tailbone that worsens with sitting.

 

The main concern is infection, which can result in a painful abscess. Signs and symptoms of an abscess include pain, localized swelling, redness, fever and drainage of pus.

 

Causes

A pilonidal cyst develops when body hair grows or is pushed into a pilonidal dimple or pit — a hollow space or cavity located in the crease of the buttocks near the end of the tailbone. As the hair grows inward, the cavity can get irritated and inflamed and may become infected. An infected pilonidal cyst is called a pilonidal abscess.

 

Pilonidal cysts are more common in men who have more body hair and in people who sit for prolonged periods of time on their job.

 

Risk factors

Certain factors can make you more susceptible to developing pilonidal cysts. These include:

 

Male sex

Obesity

Inactive lifestyle

Occupation requiring sitting

Excess body hair

Poor hygiene

Excess sweating

 

When to seek medical advice

If you notice any signs or symptoms of a pilonidal cyst, see your doctor. He or she can diagnose the condition by examining the lesion.

 

Complications

Infection is the main complication of a pilonidal cyst. An infected pilonidal cyst, referred to as a pilonidal abscess, is often very painful. A cyst that is painful, irritated or infected typically contains hair plus blood and clear or yellowish drainage that typically has a foul odor.

 

 

Treatment

Because every pilonidal cyst is unique to the person affected, doctors use a variety of methods to treat this condition. In mild cases, regularly shaving the area can resolve the problem. This prevents the hair from embedding into the skin.

 

First-time abscesses may need only simple incision and drainage. But if the cyst recurs or if there are multiple cysts or cavities, your doctor may recommend more extensive surgery.

 

Incision and drainage procedure. During this procedure, you're given a local anesthetic to numb the area before your doctor opens and drains the cyst. Afterward, your doctor packs the wound so that it can heal from the inside out.

Surgery. Surgical treatment of recurrent pilonidal cysts usually involves opening and draining infected cysts and cutting away skin and flesh that cover any dimples or pits that could potentially develop into abscesses. The wounds are left open and packed to heal from the inside out. In some cases, the wound is partially sewn to prevent the wound from closing up prematurely. Surgery may be done with local, regional or general anesthesia.

Wound care treatment is extremely important after surgery for an infected cyst. Your doctor or nurse will give you detailed instructions on how to change the dressings. At home, you'll need to perform wet-to-dry dressings two to three times a day for several weeks. These dressings support a process called granulation, which helps to form new and healthy tissue from the inside out.

 

Bleeding and infection are the two most common complications after pilonidal cyst surgery. While changing the dressings, you may notice oozing of blood or clear fluid, which is normal. However, persistent bleeding that requires more than two or three dressing changes a day or drainage that is foul smelling isn't normal. See your doctor if you experience these symptoms.

 

Pilonidal cysts can become a chronic problem, recurring even after treatment. Or they can resolve without complications after surgery.

 

Prevention

To prevent future pilonidal cysts from developing:

 

Remove any hair from this area on a regular basis. Shaving or depilatory creams work well, but you may need laser treatments for hair removal.

Clean the area daily with glycerin soap, which tends to be less irritating. Rinse the area thoroughly to remove any soapy residue. Washing briskly with a washcloth helps keep the area free of hair accumulation.

Keep the area clean and dry. Don't use powders, oils or herbal remedies on this area.

Avoid sitting for long periods of time.

Look little miss spin. First he says I selectively chose text, that linked to a page I wasn't quoting. He says I didn't note it wasn't a disqualifying condition, even though I stated he received a legitimate medical exception IN THE FIRST POST I MADE---funny he doesn't want to address that anymore.

 

I'm still not sure what point you are trying to make by posting every single thing mayo has about the cysts. I posted the entire text from the first page, you know..the one that is the FOCKING DEFINITION of pilonidal cysts.

 

Again..since you are obviously slow----

No one questioned the military service of the Swift Boat Veterans. Some people questioned their motives.

 

I don't know whether Kerry applied for a deferment, but hey - he fought in Vietnam and was wounded in battle. Have a little respect. If it weren't for guys like Kerry and the Swift Boat Vets, baginas like you wouldn't be home safely questioning our soldiers' sacrifice.

[Recliner Pilot 61]

He drove a boat around in Vietnam and got a piece of rice lodged in his ass from throwing is own grenade. Have a little respect.

 

That's better.

 

Comparing what Kerry did in VN with what "real soldiers" (Rush reference intended) did is night and day. He went cuz he wasn't smart enough to get out of going, but he found a way to play the system once he got there and in the process he created the illusion he was a War Hero.

 

Too bad for him he was exposed as a fraud just in time to save the U.S. from the possibility of him becoming President.

the gop may or may not have taken this approach on their own, we'll never know. but i do believe a large part of it had to do with kerry making his vietnam service a centerpiece for his campaign. during that entire time, kerry could not go two sentences without bring it up - and if fact, started out many of his sentences with "when i was in vietnam...." was it classless still, yea - prolly a bit. but i also understand to a degree why they may have done it.

Well, first obviously Sen. Kerry was highlighting the difference between him and President Bush.

 

IMO, classless isn't strong enough to describe what happened though. And I can't say they're can be any understanding of complete fabrications by people who were not there regarding his record.

 

Questioning whether his experiences then are relevenant now, fine. Questioning if he was so proud, whether it made him the person he is today contrasted by his actions after he returned, fair game. But what SBVT did, with the apparent blessing(and most likely approval) of the Presidents re-election efforts was dispicable. It's actions like this, people like Rush, Coulter...that we can't have civilized intelligent debate about real issues facing this country.

Instead of a reasoned answer, instead of actually looking for facts, you go into an attack mode, trying to liken the fabrication of evidence in the Rather story with the Rove/Bob Perry connections.

I actually agree with you. You can argue that Kerry's service was relevant to a point but I do agree with you, he overdid it and I'm perfectly OK with a response like, "That's terrific, thanks for your service, but what have you done over the past 30 years of your life?" What I object to is the totally unfounded claims that Kerry exaggerated his service or even inflicted his own wounds, that IMO is beyond the pale. And whether it was coordinated by the White House (I believe it was, but there's enough plausible deniability) is beside the point. Guys like Bush/Cheney benefitted from it, failed to condemn it, and were in bed with folks like Limbaugh who propogated that fiction for political gain.

 

That in my mind proves that Limbaugh's "support" for the troops begins when they're politically useful and ends when they're not. He's the worst kind of coward and they only people lower are guys like Recliner Pilot who cheer him on.
