I think you are being dishonest to yourself, John. That's not intended as an insult, that's a temptation we all have sometimes when we get caught up in a partisan argument, and plenty of good people fall into it.

If they wanted to show what Fox looked like, all they had to do was show a clip from the ad. The suggestion that Limbaugh's wobbly act was a way of giving information to people is at best naive.

Defending people "on your side" when they make your side look dirty just doesn't make sense. Why do it? There are some people you just don't want alongside you in a dispute. From the little I've seen of this Limbaugh, and the rather more I've read about him, he's someone like that.

I suspect that if the predictions are right and the Republicans get stomped in your elections in a few days, some of the blame for that will be down to him and his antics.
