VOICEOVER: "Secretary Rumsfeld called the torture of Iraqis sadistic...cruel..."

RUMSFELD: "Fundamentally un-American."

VOICEOVER: "But here's what Rush Limbaugh said:"

LIMBAUGH: "This is no different than what happens at the Skull & Bones initiation...I'm talking about people having a good time. These people - you ever heard of emotional release? You ever heard of needing to blow some steam off?"

VOICEOVER: "This is the most listened-to political commentator in America?"

1. I love media matters

2. Even Atilla the Rum is smart enough to know

that condoning the abuse won't play. I can't imagine anyone being that stupid. I know some moderately conservative people who used to listen to Rush who are now turning away from him because he's becoming to blatantly radical for them to stomach. I think he's destroying what little credibility he ever had, even with the moderate RW.

3. Yep

His knee jerk reaction to anything even remotely dangerous to Bush is to blast/belittle/ignore regardless of the facts.

He really stepped into the doo doo last week.

5. Maybe the Abuse is Limbaughs Ultimate Fantasy

Who knows what he is doing with the pictures?

4. I live in DC and just saw it.

Brock's operation has only been up for a few weeks, but it really seems pretty impressive.

It's scary to think how much good he could do if this thing is successful.
