Like we needed any more evidentiary proof.
You're so innocent.
Far be it from me to encourage your being worldly.

Sigh. Well, its off to sleep for me now anyway.
.....'night lil audie good night...
A huge part of the reason is that my dad was a fan. Not quite the "Rush is God" Dittohead lots of other people were, but close.
During my dad's last year's he commonly made me listen, and watch Fox news. I was up visiting a lot, due to his declining health. I couldn't even set him straight about the venomous lies and hate and divisiveness, because of his health issues. If my mom even heard us mention the invasion, she'd yell for me to come help her with something bs, then give me stern talking to.
That would be a very long post. And, of course, it was also about how evil gay men, like me, are.
I'm aware. I'm sure that the current equivalents of Limbaugh are spreading it to national audiences.
Rush was a big supporter of USA middle east policies that amounted to "bomb them back to the Stone Age".
Yuck.

I looked up his "anti gay" statements.
Now personally, and speaking as one who has
seen her share of anti asian, anti woman stuff here
and there-if rush is some sort of myso, anti asian, I am not
aware of it. But I dont listen to him.
Going by "worst quotes" which are pretty mild..
I dont see him as anti gay, but he sure is or an
"irreverent" sort. A tad sensitive, you, maybe?
If anti gay from rush, such as it may be, makes you
so against him, Bill Maher must make you hysterical.
( I have never watched him hardly know who he is but
found when looking for worst things rush has said, found
article about him.)

Hope you had a nice sleep.
It is not nonsense. Back during the Bush administration, "bomb them back to the Stone Age" was a thing. A very big thing.
Keep in mind, Bush's first State of the Union address included a short list of enemy countries. It was referred to as "The Axis of Evil".
Being a micro-Chinkette you may not understand the emotional power of the description "axis". But WWII was fought between the Allies(us) and the Axis(Germany, Japan, Italy, etc.)
Then Bush started invasion plans for the Axis of Evil. 9/11 was a bit of a set back, because we actually got attacked. But not by a country on Bush's hit list. It wasn't even by Afghanistan, it was by some Saudis living there.
But lots of low information Bush supporters didn't bother with niceties. "Bomb them back to the Stone Age" was a very big thing around here. Irrationally violent and ignorant, but it drove much of USA foreign policy at the time.
People who thought that was a horrible idea were often attacked as "anti-American".
And Limbaugh gave them a huge audience. He made a ton of money doing so. And, partly due his show, the USA went into the disaster that was the Iraq invasion. Mass suffering and casualties.

You of course have no way to know the terrible
impact of Japanese atrocities on my family.
But lets drop this discussion.
Hillary voted for the war, but Limbaugh is the one you blame?Hope you had a nice sleep.

That vote was one of the reasons I disliked Hillary so much at the beginning of the last election cycle. Then I got better educated.
It wouldn't hurt you any to try it.

Education led to exculpating Hillary for the wars, & blaming Limbaugh.
Oh, dear.
Yep. Now you're getting it. We'll make a good American of you. You will be one of us. Resistance is futile.

Which certainly does add an element of tragedy to his life. And bringing up addiction while you're taking jabs at him, that's rather low, don't you think?
And, BTW, Rush is a person, thus it's "Rush is a drug addict who already lost...."

His addiction must be discussed in terms of his rants on drug abuse and what should be done to users

Denial and displacing blame isn't unusual. The brain is out of whack when it is addicted. It changes, and not in good ways. Addicts need understanding and compassion, not ridicule and mockery.
