Will Rush finally destroy his career over Mandela's death?

There's no doubt that Rush fails to see the connection between this country's fight for self rule and Mandela's fight. Ignore that most GOP leaders outside of Cheney are at least paying lip service to Mandela.

Rush thinks he is so untouchable there is no way he's not going not going to mock the world reaction to the death of a "communist terrorist". The only question is how fast after the outrage over his comments spread will Rush find himself having to PAY stations to carry his show.

let a little time elapse after Mandela's death to let Rush "clear his head" and tape his mouth.

Outside of a few minutes at the beginning of Megan Kelly's show I've seen no coverage of Mandela's passing. One would think that one day of not attacking Obamacare would be the par when a significant world leader passes away.

Meanwhile Cheney's passing will probably be non-stop coverage on the fair and balanced network.

I truly don't think there is anything he could do, short of renouncing the right and becoming a liberal, that would jeopardize his job. He is way too important to the 1%, as their main propaganda person. He would be no more likely to be fired than Joseph Goebbels would have been fired by Hitler.

now we're supposed to believe that Limbaugh was merely there as a spectator. Why did Limbaugh need all the viagra if he didnt use it to enable him to rape little kids that have been sold into sexual slavery for criminally wealthy inhuman right wing douchebags. Illegal possession of prescription medication will always be a danger with Rush Limbaugh and other right wing child sex slave consumers.

Rush could bugger a poodle live on-air and nothing would happen. The only way he'll be kicked off air is if he becomes a liberal.
