I typically ignore Rush, but this really pissed me off.

First, Limbaugh made light of foreign journalists, including two reporters from the New York Times, being rounded-up in Cairo today.

LIMBAUGH: Ladies and gentlemen, it is being breathlessly reported that the Egyptian army --- Snerdley, have you heard this? The Egyptian army is rounding up foreign journalists.

I mean, even two New York Times reporters were detained. Now, this is supposed to make us feel what, exactly? How we supposed to feel? Are we supposed to feel outrage over it? I don't feel any outrage over it. Are we supposed to feel anger? I don't feel any anger over this. Do we feel happy? Well --- uh --- do we feel kind of going like, "neh-neh-neh-neh"?

I'm sure that your emotions are running the gamut when you hear that two New York Times reporters have been detained along with other journalists in Egypt. Remember now, we're supporting the people who are doing this.

Later on in the very the same show, after he's learned that two Fox "News" reporters had been beaten and hospitalized following detention in Egypt, suddenly Rush gives a damn

LIMBAUGH: According to Mediaite, Fox News' Greg Palkot and crew have been severely beaten and are now hospitalized in Cairo. Now we were kidding before about The New York Times, of course. This kind of stuff is terrible. We wouldn't wish this kind of thing even on reporters.

This infuriates me to no end, and is another perfect example of the right's bloodlusting hatred for the left.

(Paraphrasing)

Rush's show is on live for three hours every day, so he has ample opportunity to rewrite himself when he steps in shit.

4. What a vile, immature man.

Even as we chastise our own on the Greatest page over this kind of behavior. As if everything were partisan. As if life Republican were the only life of importance. I will admit that I was surprised to hear that Fox did any kind of field activity. But to not care about another human being who is suffering is neurotic. And I will also admit that I won't grieve the passing of certain people. But they had to earn their grace through unforgivable actions. And those are extremely rare and few.

To think this man broadcasts his filth over our air waves. He does so with my displeasure.
