I don't know if they still call themselves that or not.

Who listens to this asshole? I think most of Limbaugh's listeners are not only uninformed, but undereducated and delusional. I think they have so many personal issues in their lives that they meed external targets and use progressives/liberals for their misplaced anger. Their true anger lies with themselves, their background, and their situations. Certainly they're not the most mentally healthy people. And I think they certainly lack the capacity for much objectivity in other areas of their lives. They need something 'safe' to hate since they have little else to motivate their lives. They hate liberals, they hate the better educated, they hate gays, they hate minorities, etc. Hate keeps them from self-examination.

Some of these people can become dangerous. They fantasize about killing the objects of their hate and upon occasion, they have acted upon these fantasies. Take what happened in Knoxville Unitarian church last year for instance. This makes what Limbaugh, and those like him, truly dangerous for society for more than the obvious reasons.


I'm one of many (I would like to think a number of people did) who wrote the WH last week to suggest that Limbaugh be taken off AFR because of his unpatriotic stance, i.e. wishing Obama and his administration to fail. Someone here on DU suggested we do that and I followed through.
