Maybe you should listen to Rush Limbaugh after all

Rush’s tax plan is too flawed, naturally. However, I have concerns over the current stimulus and feel that most $$ should be in infrastructure as it will create jobs, we need it AND we will actually physically see (and drive over, etc.) the results.

Now, I wholeheartedly believe that Rush Limbaugh is a d**chebag. That said, wormburner @24 is correct: Limbaugh (and Maher) are first and foremost entertainers. We should always keep that in the backs of our minds when commenting on those who have a talk radio show, a TV show or are mAnn Coulter-types.

OT about Rush’s drug use vs. Obama’s:

Rush’s occurred *after* his admonishing of drug abusers on his show (and don’t forget his excursion to the Dominican Republic for the little blue pills.. ) ca 2003

Obama’s occurred in college/law school AND this had already been disclosed ca. 1995.
