Media Matters is just a George Soros puppet.

So whose sock puppet are you property of then? What I linked to was a video. No text from a media matters writer, except for the headline, which makes use of quotes from Limbaugh's own program.

It's funny that you post something from Palin, and then warn of the impending ad hominems. Ironic. :p :lol:

The Media Matters thing isn't even a true ad hominem. They have almost nothing to do with George Soros.

Looks to me like the fat around Limbaugh's belly is slowly shifting to his head. Why would anyone take anything that uniformed idiot says seriously?

I's bet you would find similar adipose shifting patterns in his listeners.

My question would be: if it's ecoterrorism, why hadn't ecoterrorists thought of this before? Instead, they just burn down a research lab or two.

This catastrophic event creates a great media spot, and considering the timing it couldn't have happened at a more perfect time. If it was not an accident those responsible should be hung, or better yet force oil down their mouth and let they die a slow death like the animals will be doing.

Wouldn't surprise me if Greenpeace was involved - they attempted to plug the pipe works at an oil sands plant earlier this year.. Mind you, I would be surprised that a mainstream group would blow-up an offshore facility

Perhaps, because prior to this event President Obama has always been a willing and totally co-operatng puppet of enviro-terrorists and no intention to change the status quo of American dependence on foreign oil.

:roll: Oh, yup. "Hey, let's cause an environmental disaster to ward off environmental disasters. Brilliant. Where does this bonehead come up with this crap? Beaver's pot crop? Poppy field?

Not impossible, although I think it is more like poor maintenance. Could even have been a disgruntled worker that miscalculated. . After all someone is blowing up Encana pipelines and ecoterrorists have been known to slash nets at fish farms and plug culverts on logging roads.
This does make the tarsands look a lot better.

Even if it was a conspiracy, why leave your environment at risk to any terrorist? Placing blame doesn't change the outcome. Who cares what/who is the cause; it is what it is. It's either safe/secure or it isn't.

We all know that if they had (a very expensive) remote controlled security valve near the sea bottom in place we wouldn't be discussing this.
But to go and blame any owner for a burglary or a terrorist action is a bit of a stretch...non?

Actually, an ad hominem is an argument that takes the form of "person X claims Y, but person X is wrong because they are a bad person (or some other negative quality)".

Only one comes close to an ad hominem, and it's not even a statement, it was a question. So, no, not great, not even examples of ad hominem.

To all Limbaugh detractors:

Have you ever listened to his show?
If you did, what radio station?

Or are you just a mindless robot of left-wing American TV?

How about you explain Jack, how being a regular, infrequent, or otherwise listener of Limbaugh has anything to do with the ridiculous attempt by Limbaugh to connect this tragedy with environmentalism?
