We'd been puzzling over what to say about the news of American soldiers humiliating and torturing Iraqi prisoners. We felt we should say something; after all, there's (simulated) ass-fucking involved. But, you know, torture. Where are the laughs? Then Rush Limbaugh put it all in perspective, after a caller remarked that the "stack [of] naked men" was "like a college fraternity prank."

RUSH: Exactly. Exactly my point! This is no different than what happens at the skull and bones initiation and we're going to ruin people's lives over it and we're going to hamper our military effort, and then we are going to really hammer them because they had a good time. You know, these people are being fired at every day. I'm talking about people having a good time, these people, you ever heard of emotional release? You of heard of need to blow some steam off?

That man needs to be fisted with no lube in the worst way.

Not that I'm volunteering....

I want someone in the Bush administration to come out and call Rush "un-American".

C'mon, Rummy!

I find it unbelievable, really, that Limbaugh doesn't seem to understand or care that some things absolutely transcend partisan politics ... like common human decency and compassion.

He seems to be of the opinion that "Boys will be boys!"

But we already knew the man was morally bankrupt.
