Was Rush Limbaugh all over the airwaves in 1995 spewing garbage? I thought so. Because that would have made him a huge part of the machine that helped bring us the OKC bombings. And then there was Eric Rudolph, and more recently the young white dude who stockpiled heavy artillery in his apartment and killed two NYPD police officers. And now the FBI is warning that the possibility of domestic terrorism is increasing again among right-wing wackos, as it did in the 1990s under another hugely popular, successful Democrat. Except, of course, that this Democrat is black, which makes it all the scarier.
You know, I thought maybe Wanda Sykes had gone over the line with the comment about hoping Limbaugh's kidneys fail. (It was kind of lame. She should have substituted "liver"--now, that would be funnier.) Now, actually, I'm wondering if it'll be necessary for the good of the country.
