    Default $2,100,100...

    What is the amount that Rush Limbaugh got for the copy of "Dingy" Harry's letter?

    The largest ever bid for an item on eBay.

    Lots of Republicans with money bidding I guess.
    Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
    Proving tax cuts work!

    Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
    The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

    lol, Limbaugh is fuming at how Harry Reid praised the idea that the money for the letter he wrote is going to charity.

    Rush is just trying to gain back popularity after his foot in mouth about the troops.

    Yeah, he's ranting about how Reid is trying to take some credit away from him. I think it was a good move by Reid. Limbaugh is a blowhard and I dont think he deserves credit by just putting something out on e-bay and giving the money to charity. He didn't write the letter, and it ain't hard to sell on e-bay.

    Especially with the sigs on the document.

    Limbaugh's picture with the cigar just screams "I'm a dousche"

    Hmmm, calling out people who are not soldiers but pretend to be soldiers and then speak ill of real soldiers is putting a foot in his mouth? Interesting.

    There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.
