How about plain tasteless? Crude? Offensive? Without any grace at all?
The point is he didn't have to say it. He chose to say it knowing his audience would be guffawing while everyone else, when they heard of it, would be disgusted. But he's a shock jock, that's his job so I shouldn't be surprised.
You know what "spade" means, right? Bigot.
here in the big city, it's a shovel, rube.
what is it in your little slice of heaven?
Limbaugh: Kennedy Will Be Dead By The Time Health Care Bill Passes
I'm surprised!
I always thought of Rush Limbaugh as a caring, thoughtful man.

It's tasteless, crude, and offensive to suggest that you name a bill in memorial for a man who has supposedly fought his whole life for it?
What is so disgusting about it? Seriously? If I were Senator Kennedy id be honored to see a cause I fought for become a memorial for me.
No, I think it is tasteless to say that a man who appears to be dying from a brain tumor will be dead soon... and I am guessing he chuckled when he said it. The chuckling would be the tasteless part of the whole thing. I don't like Ted either, but I would never joke about his circumstances.
Of course, I haven't listened to Ole Rush in years, so I am only guessing that he chuckled.
Immie
and he would have said that the day before he died as wellThe day after Kurt Cobain killed himself, Rush called him a "human piece of trash."
The day after.
he was a stupid musician that killed himself
give me a break that i dont feel sorry for people like that

First, Ted Kennedy does not appear to be dying from a brain tumor. He is dying from a brain tumor.
Second, there is no mention of laughing. However, I see nothing wrong with laughing at death. There is no point to life if you can't laugh. And if you cant laugh at your demise, then when can you laugh?
Third, Rush's suggestion about the bill being a memorial in his honor is hardly tasteless. It's honorable. If a Democrat suggested this after his death, everyone would be praising him for respecting Senator Kennedy. Rush suggests it and you treat it like its an insult. Please.
Why so serious?
There is no point to life if you can't laugh. And if you cant laugh at your demise, then when can you laugh?
the two are not comparableand he would have said that the day before he died as wellThe day after Kurt Cobain killed himself, Rush called him a "human piece of trash."

Perhaps, but do you feel sorry for his wife? His daughter? His mother and father? His friends? His fans?
When the Leftards took potshots at Reagan the day after he died, that was classless. Similarly, when a musician - or anyone who has touched the lives of people, particularly one who is tormented as Cobain was - kills himself, describing that person as a human piece of trash the day after he dies is about as low as you can go. But what do you expect from the king of the sewer media?
Rush Limbaugh is piece of shit because he says such moronic things, but I wouldn't say so the day after he dies. Even if you disagree with him, you respect the man and all those who he has reached during a time of mourning.
There's a time and a place, but the day after someone dies is not one of those days.

I really dont get you people. Rush is evil because he suggested they name the health care bill after Ted Kennedy. Seriously? If a Democrat did this youd be praising how generous it was and how great an idea it would be to honor him.
The day after Kurt Cobain killed himself, Rush called him a "human piece of trash."
The day after.
We are suppose to feel sorry for Senator Kennedy? I sure don't
The day after Kurt Cobain killed himself, Rush called him a "human piece of trash."
The day after.
The day after 9/11 Obama's buddy said he wished he'd bombed more people when he was bombing.
The day after.
Is it a strawman to take someone's point, misrepresent it and knock it down? Well yes it is. Right there. Strawman.

Limbaugh: Kennedy Will Be Dead By The Time Health Care Bill Passes
On his radio show Friday, Rush Limbaugh suggested that Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) would be dead by the time health care reform legislation passes. "Before it's all over, it'll be called the Ted Kennedy memorial health care bill," the talk show host says. He says President Obama has moved on to health care because he can't solve the economic crisis. Listen, via Media Matters:
