Sometimes I think it’s best to let the wingnuttery speak for itself.

The rumor is true. I got a bit of face time with Rush Limbaugh yesterday in the green room. He was as warm and gracious as you’d expect. It was a high honor.

I had lunch with Vice President Cheney a few weeks before he left office and was not nearly as intimidated as I was meeting Rush — the stuttering I had as a child returned.

It was absolutely amazing.

See what I mean? How can that be topped?

CPAC attendees recognize just how excellent he is — they named him the most popular conservative out there. He is with reason.

The Drug-Addicted Thrice Divorced Sex Tourist is about as popular as anal cysts, so Erick’s right, he is the most popular conservative out there.

Rush said the other side will never like us because we are conservatives. To be liked, we must not be conservatives. He’s absolutely right. Our ideas are about freedom and liberty. They do not grow stale. And they only grow as weary as we do.

In other words, "The more people that hate us just proves how right we are!" Gotta love a political movement that interprets crushing electoral defeats and historic unpopularity as a vindication of its platform. (It appears at least one conservative sees how insane this is.)

Now I need to get working on my radio skills so maybe I can guest host one day.

Just try not to think about El Rushbo when you do, Erick. Dead air, and all that.
