A reason why your grandkids put you in the cheap retirement home.
If Rush had been in the Continental Congress nobody would have ever heard of the Declaration of Independence and we’d still be British subjects. There is no way on God’s green earth that he would have risked his pudgy neck to upset the royal apple cart.
@Dave H: late 2009, a London pub, talking to the owner. Then I realized, and said out loud, that if we’d lost the Revolutionary War, we’d have health insurance.
@blogenfreude: It’s an interesting thought experiment considering that the Commonwealth countries, like Canada and Australia, are thriving, while the US is imploding under our kleptocracy.
That poor horsey is going to have a broken back.
@SanFranLefty:
Probably won’t care thanks to a diet of Oxy and Viccodin.
@ManchuCandidate: Did anyone else hear the NPR story this morning about ageing sack of shit Mitch McConnell?
@Dodgerblue: He is looking as if his face got microwaved in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

@ManchuCandidate: You think Rush would share his drugs?
@Benedick: I don’t think I’ll ever top the headline I wrote for our alt-tabloid’s interview with Portland’s delightfully profane quadriplegic cartoonist John Callahan: Tales from the Crip.
We sweated bricks over that one, and only relaxed after we later heard that he loved it.
@Benedick: Headline in the San Francisco Chronicle’s Food section:
@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ:
Touche.
Poor Liberty whose back is broken by Rush Limbaugh. Sounds about right.
@SanFranLefty: “Nojo adds a new dimension to our richly layered dining scene.”
Don’t tell anyone I nuke the entrée.
@nojo:
Do you serve Hamster?
@ManchuCandidate: At Nojo’s, hamsters serve you!
@nojo: I’m admiring of For Whom the Bill Tolls. I did not see that coming. As the actress said to the bishop.
@Benedick: A bland email subject line is a wasted opportunity.
