This is my collection of political rants. These are distilled talking points, attempts to encapsulate and illustrate some of the currents in today's politics. They begin in 2003, and currently document my journey into Limbaugh-Land. In Rush's world of absolutes, ALL of the corruption is on the Left, and the Right holds no culpability. This is his focus, his continuous guiding principle. He posits himself as "your translator," and proceeds to explain "Liberal Thought."

Climate Change vs. Rush Limbaugh
Republicans don't have to believe over 200 degreed and peer-reviewed scientists from around the world.
Republicans don't have to believe the people who live in the Arctic who say the permafrost is melting for the first time in human memory.
Republicans only need to believe Rush Limbaugh, a draft-dodging drug addict shill for the Oil Corporations that run the country.
Republicans are faith-based - faith in criminals. Faith in the cigarette corporation lawyers and "scientists" who say that cigarettes are harmless. Faith in Neocon war-profiteers who try to connect bin Laden with Iraq. Faith in market researched non-issues like Terry Schaivo's feeding tube.
Because Republicans abdicate their responsibility of being informed, and cling to their anti-social ideology at the expense of science, the public interest, and the truth, they are immoral, depraved traitors.
Their "gotcha" politics, their glib, flippant swagger, their jingoism, their contempt for the truth, is juvenile and a disgrace.
Republicanism is a cancer, destroying Western Civilization. It's defenders are beneath contempt and beyond redemption.
