Rush Limbaugh Made America Worse: The Radio Host Played a Pivotal Role in Injecting Racism, Misogyny and Cruelty Into the Right-Wing Radio Sphere. The Only Thing Missing Was His White Hood.

Twenty-five years ago, Rush Limbaugh graced the cover of Time magazine. Wearing a striped shirt, an expensive suit, and a look of total contempt, he held his trademark cigar between two stubby fingers. A thick plume of smoke obscured part of his face, styling him in brimstone. The issue’s cover asked a simple, almost innocent question: Is Rush Limbaugh good for America?

The answer to that question was as obvious 25 years ago as it is today: Limbaugh was not merely bad for the United States, he was bad in uniquely terrible ways, and uniquely terrible right up until the end. He is near the top of any list of malign actors in the post-Vietnam period.

Obituaries of Limbaugh, who died on Wednesday at the age of 70 of lung cancer, have—much like the Time cover—danced around this fact in the same “have the cake and eat it too” fashion. Limbaugh’s politics have been sanded down in these tellings, which label him as merely “controversial” or “polarizing.” The New York Times described him as “relentlessly provocative,” a particularly weaselly way of describing his approach to talk radio. The Wall Street Journal wrote that he “rode a wave of national polarization.” Nearly every obituary notes that he was “influential.”

If only he had stuck with presenting a conservative point of view. That wasn't enough. He had to season it with hate, racism, misogyny, divisiveness, and fear. The IMPOTUSx2 was the result of Limbaugh's bringing these things out of the closet and embracing them.

He wanted to be rich and he knew the path to wealth in conservative land was made of intolerance and scorn.
 
Rush made America worse for the lib'ruls who thought they had the exclusive right to control the information given out to the voters......

He crossed the line when he called Sandra Fluke a slut. He's been operating at a loss for years, with most carriers dropping him. The Koch Bros. were funding his show for years now, as our boycotts paid dividends.

During the beginning of the AIDS health crisis, he mocked those who died of it. He mocked Michael J. Fox and claimed that he exaggerated his Parkinson's diagnosis for sympathy and money. Then there were the "feminazis," just regular women who wanted the same paychecks and freedoms as their male counterparts. No wonder he was the idol of the envious, the haters, the mean-spirited.

We shouldn't leave out his Viagra-fueled vacations to the sexy islands and his drug addictions. And his failed promise to move to Costa Rica if Obama's ACA passed.

And the time he illustrated that the doesn't understand how birth control works, when he claimed that 'she's having so much sex, she can't afford the birth control'.

He was a nasty, vile human being. Remember when he despised the Toadstool, then started supporting him? No morals, no guiding star, no honor, no principles. Just hate and greed.

That was pretty ironic, given his own taste for sex with questionable individuals, quite possibly underage.

Yet the producer of his show is a black man, Madwitch!

Because it was a money maker. Many radio stations were teetering on the edge of failure, until they picked up Limpbaugh.

The following is attributed to Bette Davis re. speaking ill of the dead:


"I was told only to speak good of the dead. Joan Crawford is dead. Good."
