...as "being a joke"...that rushbo is an "entertainer". It's an easy way to dismiss the vitriol and pretend that it doesn't effect or reflect upon them. Of course, that "humor" only extends to their favorite cartoon characters...dare to play that same game using a Palin and then out comes the sexist rants. The hypocrisy is always just below the surface.
Sorry to hear of your problem...I've learned to look upon those who listen to rushbo like little children..."they just don't know better". I've long given up on trying to reason with those who are have fallen off the reality abyss. Live with the satisfaction that you're on the right side of history and what's right.
Cheers...

Some people are long time Republicans from back when Democrats had the likes of George Wallace.

Rush is the voice of today's Republican party. He's a mean, not lean, hate spewing machine.

As brave as when he was serving in Viet Nam, or wherever he was when cheerleading.

As a Republican myself, she certainly sums it up for me, except that I voted for John Kerry ....

Rush is the epitome of the bully. He is a coward that picks on those he sees as weak.
