This week, talk show host Rush Limbaugh announced that he is suffering from lung cancer.
We all know Limbaugh. He has spent an
entire career attacking minorities, telling lies, smearing his opponents, and gloating over his success (complete with
pictures of huge cigars dangling from his lips) in the name of "American exceptionalism."
Some of his activities included
referring to Obama as a "man-child" (boy) and
pushing birther lies about him, making a multitude of
racist comments, spending several days describing different ways how college student
Sandra Fluke is a "slut" simply because she spoke out about the need for birth control, claiming that actor Michael J. Fox
was faking his Parkinson's Disease, and last but not least:
Making fun of people afflicted with and dying from AIDS by playing the Dionne Warwick song, "I Know I'll Never Love This Way Again."
Since his announcement, there has been an outpouring of well-wishers eager to express their support of him during his crisis.
