they all know limbaugh whether they listen to him or to others who do. to them he represents that whole alt reality. but they also know deep down that he's a millionaire liar and pretender hiding in a studio - he just helps them excuse their racism and relieves their fear with the certitude of simple binary absolutism.

jack is right handed, right?
