I Have ALWAYS Hated Rush Limbaugh

Rush Limbaugh Loses 43 Advertisers
This is the best news I have seen in a long time. I have been an avid hater of him for 2 decades and think his brand of vitriol is noxious and inflammatory. I listened to his show in 3 mile increments (the longest I could stand before turning my AM car radio off) and was forced to listen at various work places during the 90's. His mysoganasic view of women was has been the re-occuring theme that pisses me off the most, but his constant harping on any Democrat (Clinton when he was in office and now Obama) for any and every real or imagined failing and his refusal to even consider the rampant evil and lying exhibited by oh, Dick Cheney, Don Rumsfield, Bush, etc, etc, etc during the Bush regime...is nothing but blind obedience to the GOP's most extreme right, for money and lots of it. If that is not prostitution, then what IS?
His brand of pathetic showmanship consists of taking an average of 3 statements and repeating them for 1.5 to 3 hours in 5 minute tirades interrupted by a slew of commercials. It is hardly "reporting" or "broadcasting" and certainly not "journalism", I would have to say it is much more like brain washing, and it seems to work on people without much brain.
From his coining of the word "feminazi" for anyone who thinks women should have civil or human rights, to his fake "I'm going deaf (or was it blind)" schitck, to his hypocrisy regarding drug addition (saying drug users should be killed-all the while abusing oxicodoine), to his probable involvement with under-age boys in foreign countries (while spewing anti-gay, moral outrage rhetoric) to calling ANY one a slut, for the crime of voicing an opinion not endorsed by the extreme Right wing of the right wing of the GOP.(While he was once a left wing rock jock, before he sold his soul to the GOP hate mongers.) I have had more than enough.
I hope this latest uproar over his attempts to discredit, humiliate, and hurt Ms. Fluke will be his death warrant as a mouth piece for hate. We have endured his idiotic rantings for too long and the day he leaves broadcast for good is a day all those who love truth and justice can celebrate.
