Manic Thrash

Although I find Rush Limbaugh distasteful and useless in any setting, I have to mention two stories posted on Think Progress yesterday:
…Limbaugh bragged about his $400 million contract….He is no stranger to belittling the poor and dismissing the economic troubles of others. In March, Limbaugh scoffed at a question on homeless children, asking: "Would somebody tell me the last time you saw a kid sleeping under a bridge?"

Rush Limbaugh slammed the GOP's "listening tour" re-branding effort, saying that the conservative movement does not need to listen to the American people. Rather, Limbaugh declared: "We need a teaching tour."

Why does anyone listen to this blight on humanity? Something is seriously wrong with anyone who pays attention to him or gives him credence. His venom is specifically for the remaining group still in denial over the election last November.

If he is indicative of the "core values" of the Republican party, then the GOP has truly lost touch with the American people. The truth will out. They don't give a damn about financially middle or lower class citizens, and all their talk about helping working families is a load of codswallop. The fact that none of them has a plan or solution for any of the issues facing Americans is proof positive that they still hope to win elections by blindsiding people with lies.

It's a good thing for Democrats because I believe the majority of the population is comprised of sensible people. They can see right through to the rhetoric that is simply a shroud over bigotry, racism and elitism.
