Limbaugh and the neocons

Today, I saw the rerun of the McLaughlin Group and I was partially shocked at what Tony Blankely said about the republicans, namely that the republicans deserved to be routed (I'm liberally interpreting what he said. I'll get the transcript soon and correct my interpretation).

This was from a guy who consistenly defends the undefensible. And it reminds me of the following article about rush limbaugh, who said after the election:

"But the way I feel is this: I feel liberated, and I'm just going to tell you as plainly as I can why. I no longer am going to have to carry the water for people who I don't think deserve having their water carried. "


He went on to defend this position because he believes that the republicans are better than anything. In other words, he carried water not because of any good reason other than loyalty. This should be one of those moments where anyone listening to Limbaugh should conclude, he doesn't care about reason or argument or evidence.

Watch out, because these talking heads still don't serve our needs.
