One of my first thoughts on hearing this brought back a fond Bored memory.

In the early, active days here-we had a poster who had worked on some of Rush's parody songs.

I forget the poster's handle-Calling Littlebeast-LOL

I've never liked him. He is a loud, obnoxious blow-hard who doesn't know what he's talking about a lot of the time. All that being said, I wish the best for him. This is not something that should not afflict anyone and I hope for his recovery.

Trump is going to award the Medal of Freedom to Rush Limbaugh. I'll refrain from further comment.

Oh c'mon SSS. Let your hate shine. Many of your comrades have done so on social media. It'll be theraputic.

Oh, you mean like these sorts of posts on social media after John McCain died, which were sent to his widow:

Right-wingers do excel at one thing, and that's posting vile, hateful messages about those they don't like, especially those who aren't around to defend themselves.

Rush Limbaugh vs. Science (2015) wrote:[Harm from second-hand smoke] is a myth. That has been disproven at the World Health Organization and the report was suppressed. There is no fatality whatsoever. There’s no even major sickness component associated with secondhand smoke. It may irritate you, and you may not like it, but it will not make you sick, and it will not kill you.

Firsthand smoke takes 50 years to kill people, if it does,” he said. “Not everybody that smokes gets cancer. Now, it’s true that everybody who smokes dies, but so does everyone who eats carrots. [Limbaugh went on to ask why the government didn’t ban tobacco if it was so dangerous before claiming the society had vilified smokers, even though] their purchases are funding children’s health care programs. I would like a medal for smoking cigars, is what I’m saying.

When science takes on demagoguery, science always wins, whether it's the shape of the earth, smoking and cancer, or global warming.

You and your comrades are so full of hate. You really are. You have the same kind of unreasoned hatred towards Limbaugh as you do towards trump. Politics is your religion in the absence of anything else, and those who do not conform to your political doctrines are sinners. Or heathens, as I have been called.
Your political party is in shambles. You made up an impeachment out of thin air. Your congresspeople and leaders made fools of themselves, dishonored honorable Americans and showed total classlessness at the SOTU, making trump look like Abraham Lincoln. And you show your unbounded hatred of trump and everyone who has voted for him and may vote for him every day. Your party cannot even run something as simple as the Iowa Caucuses yet they want to be in charge of a federal government that runs everything.
What will it take for you to wake up?

It's funny that you should use this language to defend Rush Limbaugh, a man who has spent his entire career spewing vitriol and hatred at everyone who espouses a different political view from himself.

Rush has on rare occasions issued a half-hearted apology when he's been threatened with a loss of advertisers. But there's far more examples easily available on Youtube.

There was a local effort a long while back to boycott Rush advertisers and get the show off the air, but it fizzled when it was discovered how few locals actually listened to the show.

I listened to it three or four times back then just to see what it was all about, and every time he told a lie about me or my family. I figured if he lied every time I happened to tune in, he must be lying on every broadcast.

Good one!

On a related note, I'll go ahead and mention that, despite my old age, I can say with some confidence that my butt still looks pretty damned good.

Can't tell you how often I still hear people remark, when I'm walking away: "What an ass!"

Introspect about your obsessive posting.
