    Indeed, because that quote is of Rush Limbaugh himself talking about Kurt Cobain. So, there you have it.

    We Jews do not worship statues. There is only one true G-d and he will not be represented by a statue.

    Some of the players are a step away from gang members and sometimes act like it. So I sort of agree. “All too often” is a bit of a stretch. I’d say on occasion:)

    I refuse to pretend someone is a better person than they were, just because they died.

    I never attacked RBG nor did I see anyone attack her in the first 3 pages of her thread.

    You are wrong and trying to justify you being a jerk to a dead man. Pathetic.

    The man raised, and gave, millions of dollars for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society among other charities. Horrible, right?

    I think that most Limbaugh haters have never listened to him long enough to understand his humor nor where he's coming from. I know that I didn't.

    So, I challenge you to listen to his CPAC speech. Then tell me what parts you disagree with. You can skip the first 4 minutes of the first video if you want as it's just noise.

    Ginsburg didn’t lie and insult people to make a buck. She just had constitutional views people didn’t agree with.

    That's different, Hitler's responsible for over millions of dead souls on the planet. All Rush is responsible for, is words that people don't agree with. When you put these two beings in context in history, they don't deserve to be in the same sentence.

    Yes, when Olbermann dies, for example. Or maybe Bill Maher.

    So you support such language when it's used on those you disfavor, but condemn it when used on those you favor. What does that make you?

    Here's the Lenin Statue in Seattle that all the Communist Liberals go to bow down and worship their Socialist Ideology.

    Prayers go out to the folks that actually found a reason to love Rush Limbaugh that are not his blood relatives. I am sad for them.

    But let's all take a look back at all the beautiful things Rush has said that our Conservative friends here seem to praise him for.

    No, not at all. I was merely referring to you that what you quoted and found so distasteful was an actual, real quote from Rush Limbaugh himself.

    Discernment is a wonderful thing.

    I mean, yeah. Right now, at the very least Rush's personal family is mourning(and others, but mostly Rush's personal family.) We can give the "space to breathe" for now, and then after the moment, a couple of months or whatever and if people want to curse voodoo dolls at the guy and burning effigies than be my guest(I mean, it's sour sports but whatever.)

    Overall though, it's not worth the aggravation(and yes, I'm quoting that Disney song.). He's one dude, calm down and breathe everybody.
