Fraud!

What seems like a couple hundred years ago, I wrote my first blog post. It was about my morbid fascination with the bloviating Rush Limbaugh.
That was before Air America (actually just days before it launched), before Rush was outed as a drug addict, and well before he admitted that everything he said in support of the Bush Administration and the rubberstamp GOP Congress was a Big. Fat. Lie.
Rush and his cohorts ignored the real problems of this country for too long, opting instead to demonize anyone with the temerity to realistically examine our situation (let alone offer a solution) unless they had an "R" next to their name. It's time for America, at long last, to ignore Rush Limbaugh.
I've grown as a blogger, and Bogger has grown as a site -- so I've fittingly moved now that the country is moving on too.
One of the newest members of the reality based community™ is John Cole, who turned his back on the GOP late in the campaign -- but before Rush, Hewitt and the disgraced Neo-Con-men turned the Corner, before the paleo-con calvary saddled up their aging mounts. Cole summed it up nicely:
In short, fat, drugged, and stupid is no way to go through lifeI can't tell you how many times my ears turned red hearing one of these blowhards in the wingnuttystan noise machine say that the liberals would say or do anything to win elections and power.
As they Rush for absolution now that Rush has given them permission, mock them if you must, but remember that what they crave most is attention. Deny them relevance. That'll hurt more than any smack-down. We did all the smacking necessary last Tuesday.
P.S. Hey Pam, get a life you loser.
Hey, I didn't even notice the new beta.blogger templates have built-in Diggs.
Neat
Can you put up the big yellow Digg button? If so, do it, or I'll put them up here, my friend. Heh.
You mean put them on my site? Digg it here even though I dug it there?
I'm just playing with a new toy right now -- something all grandpa's get to do before you wrap up the kiddies' X-mas presents.
If I put it there will it show here -- I doubt it, but I dug it. (And all this surfer talk is making me want to grab a wine-cooler.)
Yeah, It won't let me dig since I dug it dude.
Dummy, Dimicrat me.
