Libtalker Furious Over Limbaugh's Weight Loss, Leno Visit

MAGNOLIA'S MALCONTENT

Rush's Accomplishments Infuriate Libtalker Reagan







Every village is said to have its idiot and in Seattle's isolated Magnolia district, that odd man sometimes seen wandering into the commercial area is a president's son.

Beyond an inability to succeed in the entertainment business, no one knows quite what makes Ron Reagan Jr so miserable.

Over the past six months or so, however, Reagan's radio style has changed. Gone is the faux sophisticated, erudite persona, it's been replaced by an overtly frustrated, angry malcontent. And there's no better topic to bring this sentiment to the surface than fresh reminders of Rush Limbaugh's continued success.

In this caught-on-tape clip, Reagan burns up over Rush's recent weight loss, as well as the favorable reception the latter's appearance on Jay Leno's show generated:

REAGAN (02:04): Rush Limbaugh is so proud of his new, less blubbery physique that he went on Jay Leno’s show last night to share it with the world; of course, even a slimmer Limbaugh is still Limbaugh; insecure, narcissistic, and dead certain he still somehow still being picked on.

REAGAN (02:38): Get the feeling those weight loss pills he’s been popping have a bit of speed in them? Yeah; he was kind of revved up there, wasn’t he?

Having acknowledged Limbaugh’s shrinking adipose layer, Leno then led the de facto head of the Republican Party into the more familiar territory of his still-obese ego.


REAGAN (06:21): He's like a fat little kid reaching for the candy jar or something; gummy little fingers and all.
