    Default Limbaugh sells Reid letter for $2.1 million

    I thought this was too funny not to mention:
    A final eBay bid of $2.11 million secured a letter from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid that demanded an apology from radio talk host Rush Limbaugh over his "phony soldiers" comment.

    On his show today, Limbaugh announced the winning bidder was Betty Casey, a noted philanthropist and trustee of the Eugene B. Casey Foundation in Gaithersburg, Md.
    The money was donated to the Marine Corps Law Enforcement Foundation and Limbaugh matched the winning bid with a personal donation.

    I really like this:

    It is hosted by America's Anchorman, Rush Limbaugh, also known as: America's Truth Detector; the Doctor of Democracy; the Most Dangerous Man in America; the All-Knowing, All-Sensing, All-Everything Maha Rushie; defender of motherhood, protector of fatherhood and an all-around good guy
    If you say so....

    In general length of 'name/title' is inversely proportional to democratic tendencies.

    It takes a fool to know a fool....

    Mr. Limbaugh is certainly qualified in that aspect.

    Wow, good one.
    You forgot to put "nanna-nanna-boo-boo" before the rest of your post. Maybe a good "I know your are but what am I" would have been appropriate as well...
