I had thought having a close family member being diagnosed with cancer recently might...

...soften my reaction to Rush Limbaugh's inevitable death from cancer.

(Breast cancer for my family member--thankfully Stage 1 so the prognosis is good.)

But no. Rush Limbaugh was just a shitty person who died of cancer and while he might have been good at what he did, what he did certainly wasn't good. He lived 70 years on this earth which is more than a lot more worthy people have.

So--meh on that.
