I gotta say, this is fucking sad, that first instinct of some is not to ask whether the man has a point, but to instead immediately dismiss anything he says simply because of who he endorsed in the last election. I listen to Rush on occasion and I agree with a lot of what he says, but I can also agree that the GOP is scared of the man. Or, rather, they’re scared of his listeners and there threats to withhold campaign donations. I’m sorry, but when’s the last time that you saw a Democrat drop a brick and beg forgiveness from Olbermann?

Seriously, if the Party cannot speak against Rush Limbaugh without fear that they’re gonna be tarred and feathered, how am I to expect them to stand up to Nancy or Harry on the Hill?
