Liberals are promoting another urban legend of theirs.
It goes this way:
"And now the liberals want to stop President Reagan from selling chemical warfare agents and military equipment to Saddam Hussein, and why? Because Saddam 'allegedly' gassed a few Kurds in his own country. Mark my words. All of this talk of Saddam Hussein being a 'war criminal' or 'committing crimes against humanity' is the same old thing. LIBERAL HATE SPEECH! And speaking of poison gas . . . I SAY WE ROUND UP ALL THE DRUG ADDICTS AND GAS THEM."
--Rush Limbaugh, Nov. 3, 1988
Of course, this is a phony quote. It actually comes from a boondocks comic strip

But of course, I'm just having fun watching the liberals make fools of themselves as they constantly post that quote, thinking it's genuine (and when pointed out the truth, their defense usually is: "well, it's something he would say"). If their previous behavior of buying into urban legends is any indicator, this fun will last for years.
