Suggested approach for libel suit against Limbaugh....

[Bugsy McGurk]

The easy part is proving the libel - there's just not much more defamatory than calling someone a wh-ore, sl-t and prostitute. Fats tried wiggling out of it with his half-assed "apology" but he didn't even retract his libelous statements.

The way to make it REALLY hurt is to seek punitive damages. Fats has hundreds of millions of dollars and countless mansions thanks to his right wing flock stuffing his pockets with money for decades. The appropriate amount of punitive damages is guided by how much money someone has - it has to be enough to punish him and deter him from similar vicious libels in the future. We'll have to see what the Great Gasbag's net worth is through the lawsuit, but I think a good damages demand number to start with is $250 million, subject to upward adjustment, of course. $500 million is by no means out of the question. Maybe more.

Lastly, to increase the pain for Fats, it should be announced up front that all proceeds of the suit would go to Planned Parenthood.

There. I think that about does it. Anything else?

Yep, works for me. I think we will see a libel suit and i think she'll win. It will be big fun to watch ol' Tubbo write that ginormous check to Planned Parenthood.

I want lots more groveling and Limbaugh's loss of the only thing that really matters to him - money.

His libel was especially vicious and he should pay through the nose!

Seriously, I don't think this could have worked out better...

Limbaugh embarasses the crap out of Republicans.
His fans defend the indefensible.
Sponsors start pulling ad buys.
He makes a half-assed 'apology' to try to stop the blood flow.
Nobody believes it.
and his apology makes his defenders look like FOOLS!

It has been thoroughly amusing. And useful!

Finally, the Limbaugh phenomenon may be coming full circle. LBJ and our American culture drove the the bigots and racists into the depths of the outhouse, in the mid-60's. Limbaugh recognized that there was a significant market out there - yearning to be racist free! Limbaugh served that market, by providing a forum for the racists to crawl up out of the shithouse, and smear themselves all over our society and culture.

We used to hear Limbaugh on public and car radios, routinely. All too many people didn't seem the least bit embarrassed at associating themselves with Limbaugh. But truth be told..it's been years since very many people have shown themselves so stupid as to cop to their guilty Limbaugh "pleasure".

Post the mid-60's and pre-Limbaugh, it wasn't "cool" to be a racist. Limbaugh made it cool again. But now....finally - it isn't the least bit "cool" to be a dittohead. Shit....(virtually) none of even our redkooks herein, will cop to being a dittohead - even as they so desperately try carrying his water.

if I were on the jury, I'd tend to think, yes, she may be.........

Let the trial begin........;yo: this should be loads of fun
