Rush Limbaugh on Rolling Stone: What a crock

Rush Limbaugh

Rush Limbaugh cut to the chase on the real source of the problem with the whole Rolling Stone-UVA fabricated rape debacle, saying with liberals, the truth doesn’t matter so much as the “seriousness” of the issue or charge.

A recent report revealed Rolling Stone’s widely cited story on a frat-initiated gang rape of a University of Virginia female student was completely false. The magazine isn’t firing anyone for the made-up report; the frat club says it’s going to fight back and sue.

Limbaugh, meanwhile, opined on his most recent show that the long-running deception was, for liberals, pretty much par for the course.

“There are two things at work here, because you know that when the story was exposed as a fraudenlent story, the infobabe reporterette immediately reacted by saying, ‘Well, okay, okay, but it still happens. It still happens. It may not ahve happened in this case, but I still succeeded in raising your consciousness level about it because you know that we have a rape crisis on campus in this country. It may not have happened here, it may not have, but it’s happening, and I have alerted you to it,’” he said. “Therefore, it’s okay.”

Limbaugh went on, denouncing the realities of liberalism that he said allows for such line of thought.

“We have two glaring truths,” he said. “And that is where liberalism is concerned, the nature of the evidence is irrelevant. It is the seriousness of the charge that matters. And in this case, we have an allegation, a charge, an accusation that a bunch of frat boys wantonly raped and maimed and did whatever else to an imaginary woman who so good at lying she fooled the world. Okay, that’s aserious charge. The fact that there’s no evidence is irrelevant, becasue the seriousness of the charge warrants the story being written.”

And the second truth?

“[The] teachable moment is … when examining liberal programs, legislative programs, any program, social program, you name it, war on poverty, take your pick, every one of them, abject failure. But you’re not supposed to point that out. We are never to look at the results. We are only supposed to examine and judge and be impressed by the good intentions.”
