I confess that I listened to Rush Limbaugh this morning. By accident.I was taking bottles and cans and cardboard to be recycled, snapped on the radio, and there he was. I caught him just as he was saying that the "Democrat union auto workers are responsible for the mess we're in."What?? It wasn't the the union workers who designed the gas guzzlers no one wants. Or flew to Washington in private jets to beg for bailout money. Or gave multi-million dollar severance pakages to the executives who made all those lousy decisions.What the union workers did do was accept cuts in pay and benefits that have taken them down to the same range as non-union auto workers in the Toyota and Nissan and Volkswagen plants ... who have also made concessions.Rush Limbaugh is a blowhard and a liar. Worse, he's a cynical manipulator who raves at the hopelessly biased and the uninformed in order to maintain the ratings on which his paycheck is based.
Rush is in it for Rush. And he doesn't give a damn about anything or anyone else, including this country.
