"that Steinbrenner 'knew when to die,' because there is currently no estate tax."

I find it particularly difficult to parse what Rush Limbaugh is saying about the late George Steinbrenner in the clip below. On the one hand, it makes sense that Limbaugh would praise Steinbrenner as the "classic capitalist" -- after all, Steinbrenner was a big success at erecting a cult of personality, which he used to maintain the structural inequities of his particular marketplace, which he harnessed to great success.

1. Every time I see that picture

I have the urge to jam that fat stogie right back down his venom-filled throat, lit end first.

2. The Steinbrenner family saves over half a BILLION $$$ in estate taxes this year...

good job Washington!!! We didn't need the money to save some jobs...its more important that the yankees have it!!! Which party is in control again?????? I keep getting confused....

3. Wouldn't limpballs like to spare his family the same burden?

I hear the "death tax" is set to kick in this October.

5. Wonder if all those Yankee fans

are going to call for Rush to be kicked out. They are so quick to denounce anybody who doesn't love the Yankees. Look at what this man is doing, ONLY BECAUSE he is upset because Steinbrenner made a lot of black people millionaires. THAT'S HIS MAIN PROBLEM HE IS A RACIST THRU AND THRU AND SHOULD BE CAllED ON IT. How in the hell this man with the way he spews racial hatred is allowed to stay on radio and TV and other people are kicked off is beyond me. But then when you are a republican you can do any damn thing, which we saw when he got out of being a drug addict. Anybody else would still be in jail. Mr Boil on His Ass is a boil on the ass of real America.

6. Yep, that was a smart move, DYING. Who knew?!

7. OK, Rush, so what's stopping you? It's the right time! Die already!

Maybe this will be an effective way to get rid of the right. If we tell them that this is the best time to die because they won't get taxed, maybe they'll all off themselves.

Edited for spelling.
