(39,961 posts)I hate what he says.
He is a bully, and his willing followers are cowards. The only way they can get satisfaction is to denigrate people that show more courage every day of their lives than they do.
Rush Limbaugh, and his followers, wouldn't step in front of a bullet to save their fellow men and women; he did everything he could to get out of serving. He wouldn't stand up to a bully attacking another human being, because he's the bully attacking them.
He doesn't have the guts to be openly gay, and face what openly gay people face. He doesn't have the guts to be poor and face the derision he heaps on those less fortunate. He doesn't have the guts to be a woman with the intelligence and refinery to testify before Congress on behalf of a friend - because he has no friends.
I hate what he says, and how he behaves, but I don't hate the sinner. He could become an actual human being if he stopped being such a coward, actually apologized for lying about the testimony Ms. Fluke put before Congress that was about hormonal treatments for ovarian cysts delivered via birth control, and owned up to his mistakes.
He won't do that, though, and cannot, because he's a coward that thinks if he keeps running, it won't catch up to him. He's what they call a deserter, and there has always been one punishment for deserting because you can't face the heat of your own behavior - it's self-inflicted in most cases. Look at the history of cowards and see how they turn out. Sometimes, deserters who can't fight their own battles that they started find a fist they can't avoid figurative, or otherwise.
People regard their straight-up enemies far better than they do people that are cowards, and Rush Limbaugh is nothing but pure, yellow-bellied cowardice, and I dare him to prove me wrong.
