Radio commentator Rush Limbaugh, at the center of a storm of criticism for derogatory remarks directed at a young law school student, is set to be honored by the Missouri Legislature with a statue at the state Capitol.
House Speaker Steven Tilley, R-Perryville, confirmed Monday that Limbaugh, who, like Tilley, hails from southeast Missouri, will be honored with a place in the Hall of Famous Missourians, a circle of busts in the Capitol rotunda recognizing prominent Missouri citizens.

I'll gladly pay the state of Missouri $1000 for the privilege of throwing dogshit at a bust of that ugly mug.

It probably took a lot to get this done on short notice.
Surely they know what kind of creep they are honoring.


Yeah. A real fine role model for the children of Missouri.
