My boss told me he checked out Rush Limbaugh yesterday morning, and
ol' Rush got a call from a hardcore conservative flag-waving....
Buddhist... who's objection was the concept of being "under" God.
And who felt the decision was right on.

Rush went ballistic... and then the person responded... until the
person was mysteriously and suddenly cut off.

Why do Americans glorify and give (loud) voice to idiots like Rush?
Can't we sic Courtney Love on his ass?
