I have received several emails this week from readers who have criticized my cartoon depiction of Rush Limbaugh. They ask if I have ever listened to Limbaugh's show. My answer is yes, I have, but I can only take him in small doses. His inflamatory rhetoric, lies and distortion make me too angry to give him that much of my precious time. These Limbaugh fans claim that Rush would never say anything like I had him saying in the cartoon below.

I would ask these Limbaugh defenders the same question. Have you ever really listened to Limbaugh's show? Where do they think I got the dialogue? Limbaugh has made many statements that could be called "racist", including this remark about how the NFL --- "Look, let me put it to you this way: The NFL all too often looks like
a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I
said it."
In this YouTube video Limbaugh blames all the racial tension in this country on "Obama's America."
