The thing is, Rush Limbaugh is just a high paid child. He really lives in a bubble of his own experience, and when it comes to trying to have understanding about something outside of himself, he responds in as dramatic away as possible. Either by calling a woman a slut, mocking someone for their disability, or the slew of other racist, sexist, ist, ist, ist's that he's had over his career.
And my biggest problem with him is not that he says what he says (because I like the stark contrast of his views and logic), but he's the cornerstone of republican ideals (and I say that observantly towards support, rather than to say ALL republicans), and he's one of the biggest voices for that party. For some reason this society doesn't outcast him as a crazy uncle (like they should), and it doesn't make any sense to me why he's given such a large platform for his ridiculousness. This guy gets paid millions of dollars to marginally speak on behalf of entire groups of people, of which many he has never come into contact with in real life, or has never even had shared or relative experiences with...
Even pastors and preachers don't have it that good.
