"this little boy, this little man-child president"

I detest Rush Limbaugh. Always have. The easy hypocrisy, the misogynist attitude, the inflammatory rhetoric, and OK, his voice. It is just the voice of a screechy old man. When my favorite AM radio station changed format to talk radio in the 80's, I tried his program. Even had the content of his program not been personally offensive, his voice was just so awful. I was always baffled that his complaints about how America was being betrayed by feminatzies, immigrants, ethnic complainers actually attracted listeners. As his program became successful he grew bolder and more obnoxious. Like many of my peers, I just considered him the village idiot. I never considered that real prominence could be attained by any entertainer who spoke in the parlance of race and hate and prejudice.

I was wrong.


On 9-27-2009 Rush Limbaugh used racial hate speech, although he learned from the Don Imus incident and used the latest move per the Southern Poverty law Center,plausible deny-ability using code when making racist statements, referring to the President of the United States as  "this little boy, this little man-child president".

When is enough ENOUGH? Can Don Imus face outrage over comments directed toward a female basketball team and Limbaugh not face outrage over comments directed toward the President? Neither incident was funny;Imus may have been laboring under the illusion that racist misogynist statements could be mistaken for humor.I don't believe Limbaugh is suffering from illusions of any sort. Of course, I am not convinced that Limbaugh suffers from anything other than  narcissism.
