David Limbaugh (Rush's brother) doesn't care if every vote isn't counted
Columnist David Limbaugh belittles those calling for a recount in Ohio and claims that the "demagogic mantra, 'Every vote must count,' is getting old." He asserts that: "The Democrats started a very dangerous precedent in Florida, and they're playing with fire again in Ohio. While they profess to be motivated by a desire to restore public confidence in the process, they are going to degrade our system to that of a glorified banana republic if they don't stop these reckless assaults."

4. Banana republic
That's what we're headed for right now! They wonder why people don't vote. Well, Repugs don't care because they're braindead base shows up loyally. So, people don't trust the voting system, we have a fascist dictator, and our country is headed towards an economic hell. The Limbaughs are a curse on this world.

5. Mike Webb predicts that attitude in Washington State, too
He's had some great shows this past week about the Gregoire/Rossi recount. He predicted all sorts of name calling - in fact almost exactly what Limbaugh Lite is saying. One humorous comment went something like this: Why is Rossi so impatient? Is he hurrying to get his tuxedo out of the dry cleaners?

To sum it up - what's the damn rush? This is only our democracy at stake here. So now, counting the votes is a demagogic mantra. That's interesting. Well, I've got a mantra, too. Not counting votes is unamerican.

10. Who the Hell is David Limbaugh and who care what he thinks
I never heard of the brother and could care less what he thinks about a recount. His opinion is no greater than that of his brother and holds little if any value to the citizen whose vote was not counted.
