I came back from a trip over the weekend and happened to tune-in to Rush Limbaugh's show Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. What's remarkable is how fill-in hosts Todd Herman and Mark Steyn played along with the illusion that Rush would return. He'd been absent since February 2nd.

Mark Steyn, in his mystifying British accent (despite being born in Toronto and only spending a scant few years at a university in Birmingham, England) told Rush's radio audience yesterday that he was simply recharging his energy after receiving his latest cancer treatment a "week ago." Said Steyn, "you don't want a 40% Rush or a 60% Rush, but the full El Rushbo. When he's ready he'll be back behind the Golden EIB Microphone." Certainly he must have known that Limbaugh was in his last hours of life.

Today his wife Kathryn was on for the first 12-minutes of the show. Though not a professional broadcaster, she read a sincere and poignant message to all of Rush's listeners and fans. Whether you are a progressive or a conservative, the man was the preeminent voice of the mainstream Republican party for a very long time.

Rush Limbaugh had a segment called "AIDS update" set to music where he mocked dying gay people so I don't really want hear about 'speaking ill of the dead' today.

Rush was bigoted toward most of the human race with exception of his conservative, heterosexual niche. So I can understand your feelings toward him. I'm a progressive white from California of the type who he used to deride as a limousine liberal, though that was hardly accurate. I'm a sports and muscle car liberal.

In 2006, Rush mocked Michael J Fox, mimicking his shaking (caused by Parkinsons) when Michael did an ad for Claire McCaskill in her 2006 #MOSEN bid. It was decried so heavily it may have helped swing the close race. That is who he was. Forget politics. He was that.

And I remember most of them. If there is any justice in this world, about now Rush Limbaugh is flying at a slightly lower (and toastier) flight level.

Fox has been spending all day canonizing him (it was on every TV in the gym today). Maybe I sound like a bad person (and maybe I could care even less), but may his bloated, corpulent body rot in the ground while clutching a bag of Viagra in one hand and the cigarillos that killed him in the other.

Hard to feel sorry for a wealthy, elitist dick who made his fortune over the last several decades by punching down and claiming he identified with the plight of the working class while convincing them to support economic and social policies against their own interests and was one of the echo chambers responsible for the rise of Trump.

Fuck him.

Rush died.... 30 years too late. I find it interesting that he was such a homophobe considering he was on his 4th marriage without any children..wink..wink.I also enjoyed reading all the youtube comments to say the least he wasnt a very liked person,
Nothing but hatred for a person who preached nothing but hatred.

Hell burns a bit hotter today.

Exactly. He was a vile bigot and purveyor of HATE who'll now get to find out whether that hell THEY tell US about is real. Better HOPE not.

Well that explains why Trump gave him that medal of "honour"......
