The Great Republican Hope: Mr Rush Limbaugh

Saturday, March 7, 2009 at 9:36

I have avoided the political car crash of radio demagogue Rush Limbaugh (pictured) featuring himself as the standard-bearer of the post-Bush Republican Party, primarily because any comment just Feeds the Beast.

I was taken down memory lane, however, when Crooks and Liars brought back this Rush-ian success from 1990. It comes from his short-lived and ill-fated television show. Limbaugh's formula of reducing a complex issue (abortion) to a simplistic bashing of an "enemy" group (the "FemiNazis" of the National Organization for Women) works well with his radio Dittoheads. However, here it goes badly awry with an audience ready to challenge him until we're left with Rush's ultimate solution: Clear the Audience.
