Freshman Dem Rep: “Rush Limbaugh is a has-been hypocrite loser, who craves attention."
Freshman Rep. Grayson: ‘Limbaugh actually was more lucid when he was a drug addict.’»

DownWithTyranny reports that freshman Democratic Rep. Alan Grayson, a congressman from the Orlando area, castigated his home state foe — Rush Limbaugh — for his unpatriotic remarks about Barack Obama:
http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/2009/01/outrage-continues-to-build-as-limbaughs.html

“Rush Limbaugh is a has-been hypocrite loser, who craves attention. His right-wing lunacy sounds like Mikhail Gorbachev, extolling the virtues of communism. Limbaugh actually was more lucid when he was a drug addict. If America ever did 1% of what he wanted us to do, then we’d all need pain killers.”

After Limbaugh referred to anti-war veterans as “phony soldiers” in 2007, Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA) commented, “Maybe he was just high on his drugs again. I don’t know whether he was or not. If so, he ought to let us know.”

1. Funny, Harkin!

Ok, Rush is a problem, or a perceived problem. What can be done about him?

3. Point at him and laugh. That often works on bullies.
He's a bufoon. His followers are bufoons. It is to laugh.

You can also pat Sen. Harkin on the back for me. They both sound like very wise men.:toast:
