Pig Man Limbaugh inducted into Hall of Famous Missourians in "secretive ceremony"

Rush Limbaugh honored at Missouri's Capitol

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh was inducted into the Hall of Famous Missourians on Monday during a secretive ceremony in the state Capitol as police stood guard to keep out any uninvited political opponents of the sometimes divisive radio show host.

The timing of the ceremony was kept secret until shortly before it occurred, and then only Republican lawmakers, other invited guests and the media were allowed into the chamber to watch — an attempt to avoid any public disruption after Limbaugh's selection was criticized by Democrats, some women's groups and other political foes.

If you must hide your honoree and sneak him into the state capitol to make the award, maybe the asshole isn't worthy of honor.

Love how they made his fat head even fatter in the bust. But overall, what a bleeping disgrace.
