5. No problem

4. No, but a whole lot of assholes GOT jobs by dissing him

[billyskank]

6. Yeah. That's what I thought.

I could go further: if we are fortunate enough that Kerry wins, I predict a large number of people will continue to be gainfully employed attacking him. And nobody will be sacked for going over the top.

7. Washiington DC would be VACANT if that had happened

Poor Ole Bill.. He was an attack magnet.. EVERYONE PILED ON HIM, so of course they were all "safe"..:(

9. Safety in numbers?

But even if that wasn't the case; even if Rush Limbaugh had been a lone fruitcake in an ocean of sanity (he was once, more or less, wasn't he?), I'm convinced he wouldn't have suffered any sanction for his vitriol, no matter how OTT.

8. The Karma Convention

did convene and rendered some great cosmic irony to Gingrich, Livingston,Barr. I wish I knew how to call the Karma distributors together on the BFEE.

10. i kicked a guy outta my deli for it

he was producing an anti-Clinton board game in his garage called something like "Slick Willy's Hustle" or some such shit.

so one day circa 1993 he comes in braying about it and spewing talking points (yup even in 93), and I had just HAD ENOUGH.

no soup for him!

11. Several careers were launched dissing Clinton

Like the dotcoms, the vanity press became a major growth industry.

Dissing Clinton nearly replaced baseball as the official most-beloved national pasttime.
