R.I.P. Rush

Didn't agree with hardly anything he ever said and I saw him as part of the far right evolution that began in entertainment... Jerry Springer and somehow the format found it's way into politics thanks to Newt, Rush, and a whole bunch of other folks blurring reality show with reality (Alex Jones) culminating in the Donald. Dangerous format to use considering our future is at stake.

I didn't agree with anything that he stood for but I think that it's bad karma to speak ill of the dead.

RIP Mr. Limbaugh.

Condolences to the family. The world will be a better place without the vile hate he championed and espoused. He harangued a twelve year old girl by calling her a "dog". There's no coming back from that, imo.

Excrement In Fraudcasting.
Power minus accountability, one less demagogue.

At some point in the early-mid 1990s, about the time of the Clinton era militia movement, I spent a week listening to el Rushbo.

I wish ill health or death on no one but I will not miss him.

Christopher Hitchens' tribute to Jerry Falwell applies equally well to Rush Limbaugh:

"If you gave him an enema he could be buried in a matchbox."
