This is just sickening. You've heard what those buggers are like...well Rush apparently hasn't.

Is that right? The Lord’s Resistance Army is being accused of really bad stuff? Child kidnapping, torture, murder, that kind of stuff? Well, we just found out about this today. We’re gonna do, of course, our due diligence research on it. But nevertheless we got a hundred troops being sent over there to fight these guys — and they claim to be Christians.

Wow. A whole new level for him. Wow. Just wow.

I do not consider myself particularly well-informed about world events. Most of what I know comes from casual listening to NPR and particularly interesting articles or info which get brought to my attention by friends or relatives. But I know about the LRA! My god, I've been hearing about the atrocities, including massacring whole villages and forcing kids to kill their own parents for years. How the fuck can someone be a political pundit for a living and not have heard of the LRA?

I found it strange that Rush's supporters commented saying the LRA are Christians fighting Muslims. I had never heard that before, so I started looking up more, and the truth about them is even disgusting and inexplicable than I assumed. From here:

The LRA's ideology is disputed amongst academics.[21][22] Although the LRA has been regarded primarily as a Christian militia,[4][5][6][7][9][10] the LRA reportedly evokes Acholi nationalism on occasion,[23] but the sincerity of this behaviour and the loyalty of Kony to either ideology is considered extremely dubious by many observers.[24][25] [26][27][28]
Robert Gersony, in a report funded by United States Embassy in Kampala in 1997, concluded that "the LRA has no political program or ideology, at least none that the local population has heard or can understand."[29] The International Crisis Group has stated that "the LRA is not motivated by any identifiable political agenda, and its military strategy and tactics reflect this."[30]
IRIN comments that "the LRA remains one of the least understood rebel movements in the world, and its ideology, as far as it has one, is difficult to understand."[21] UPDF Lt. Col. Shaban Bantariza has said that "you can't tell whether they want political power. Its only aim is to terrorize and brutalize the civilian population and to loot their homes."

There is so much of misinformation coming from that region of the Africa. If you cannot believe Rush Limbaugh you are succumbing to Al-Qaeda's propaganda.

You are a complete fucking moron. It's a shame fucksticks like you are allowed to vote and allowed to breed.

Idiots like you and Fox-News Tea-bag dipshits are the reason why this country is crumbling like the over-bloated modern-era Roman Empire it is.

Get your facts updated. There are no draft-dodgers to blame. America has a full voluntary army.

Rome declined out of decadence. Our Judea Christian values will not allow that to happen to America.

That noise you heard was that point sailing right over your head.

Rush Limbaugh is a draft dodging, Oxycotin addicted, hypocritical blowhard.

Val covered this one, so no need for me to reply, other than to say, way to completely miss the point.


Rome declined out of decadence.


Really? I think you need to acquaint yourself with annoying little things called "facts". But hey, I guess rampant military expenditures out-of-proportion with their GDP; the over-extension of their territorial claims; the slow erosion of their infrastructure and educational systems; as well as at least half-a-dozen other contributors; I guess all of those are easily hand-waved away by those of you who choose to ignore reality.

Our Judea Christian values will not allow that to happen to America.


Ask a victim of priest sexual abuse what they think of your hypothesis.

One question: would our incarceration rate (743 per 100,000: first in the world; 2nd place is Russia at 577 per 100,000) be a pretty reliable indicator of our society's decadence?

Rome's decadence was similar to Sodom and Gomorrah, the perversion of Gods will. Americas decadence is also alarmingly visible and growing. This perversion happens to all great civilizations when they stray from the sure and narrow path and marks the beginning of their decline.
