1. They're human until they hit a little too close to home
One of my cousins was in the RW pundit business until he bit off more than he could chew. I can't say I've managed to maintain as many warm fuzzy feelings as Ms. Limbaugh has. Kudos to her, I guess.

3. My parents are diehard conservatives who listen to Rush
My Dad constantly spouses the crap back at me but I can't hate him because we are family and he is my Dad. He has been good to me in other ways, its hard to explain. I get where she is coming from though I don't have to worry about my last name!

4. So what? Humans do pretty despicable things.
I could have brought up all the usual suspects, like Hitler, Stalin and the like, but there's a much closer example right here on Salon. A driver, apparently a lady, who left a note on the man she ran over and killed with her car...

I'm not like the PETA people that think animals are better than humans, who want to kill all humans or interbreed with animals (that South Park episode I take as fact) but I am properly suspicious of humanity, as everyone should be.

6. I Encountered That Rushbo...
In a previous life I played radio talk show host. I interviewed many politicians and celebrities...many who put on an act when the red light was on and would be a different person during the breaks. In 1988, right after his network show started, I had a chance to interview Rush...quite a revealing interview as he claimed at the time it wasn't a radio show host's role to push a political agenda. While I considered his crap obscene (and still do) and saw the right wing trend that led to today's hate radio (a reason I long ago jettisoned talk radio), during the break times, the guy was very friendly. We chatted about his DJ days in Pittsburgh and then working for the KC Royals. At the time he had just moved to NYC and he and his wife (I think it was #2...maybe #1) were overwhelmed with how much more expensive it was to live in NYC than in Sacramento. Methinks the Rushbo of 1988 would hardly recognize the one of 2009...some he'd be happy with (the fame and money) but also there still has to be an empty feeling in knowing you've alienated more than you've attracted.

9. Jeffrey Dahmer was a human too!
Much like Hitler, or Cardinal Richelieu, or the Right Reverend Fred Phelps...
Or THIS guy:


THE INCREDIBLE AMAZING RUM-SHARK!

Let's face it: ALL of these guys are, at best, DANGEROUSLY sub-human.
