Rush’s Ego Almost Catches Up to His Waist

Trish
As Susie Green would say, “Rush, you fat f*ck!”

It would appear that Rush Limbaugh’s recent spate of publicity is going to his fat head. How else to explain Rush’s obviously full-of-himself offer to Pres. Obama to appear on his show?

Get real.

“If you can win at this, then come here and beat me at my own game, and get rid of me once and for all, and show all the people of America that I am wrong,” said Limbaugh. “If you take me out, if you can wipe me out in a debate and prove to the rest of America that what I say is senseless and wrong, do you realize you will own the United States of America?”

Rush, do you realize (in the words of Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Susie Green character), you fat f*ck, that he is already the president of the United States? He probably doesn’t see winning an argument with you (which you would never concede no matter how poorly you showed) as the green light to “own” the United States. More likely, he already had something like that feeling on Nov. 4, 2008. And again on Jan. 20, 2009.

Maybe you and Ann Coulter should go off somewhere together and see if you can plot even more outrageous ways to get attention and adulation from your loser fan base. Try a bright, shiny object. They’ll probably be transfixed.

Jamie Foxx: Secret Feminist

Trish

It’s hard to know what to think about Jamie Foxx. First he releases the song, “Blame It” which seems a cautionary tale to women about the effects of alcohol, an unusual subject for hip hop. The video, of course, is mostly getting press not for its content but for the star-studded and in some cases unlikely cameos. Ron Howard? I’m just sayin’.

Still, the song has a message.

Girl what you drinkin, go on let it sink in…
I was unaware how fine you was before my buzz set in

Now there’s this interview.

Foxx tells “Entertainment Tonight” that when he was on the Philadelphia-area set of his new flick, “Law Abiding Citizen,” last week, he was shocked to hear how local women discussed their experiences with domestic violence on a radio talk show about Chris Brown’s disastrous relationship with Rihanna.

“It was disturbing because a lot of the women were like, ‘Maybe I did deserve it, maybe I did bring this on myself,’ ” said the Oscar winner.

“I want to say to all the women in Philly … that’s hurting. No man should ever put their hands on you.”

Who knew Jamie Foxx was such an enlightened advocate for women? Now could someone please get Rhianna on the phone? I think Jamie Foxx needs to have a talk with her.
