Writes Will Grigg: "Lew, I just heard an audibly drunk and/or drugged Rush Limbaugh tell his listeners (I paraphrase closely) that after Bush no longer has to worry about re-election, we may have to use 'brutal' means, including 'something other than conventional weapons,' to wipe out what he called the 'cockroaches' in Fallujah.
"These comments were offered in response to a caller who complained that the U.S. occupation force has been 'pussyfooting' in Fallujah. Rush -- a self-described informal adviser to the Bush campaign -- assured his caller, who demanded more forceful action, that he would 'get what he wants' as soon as Bush is re-elected.
"The only criticism of the regime Rush could muster was that it had done 'too little to prepare the public' for the 'brutal steps' that will soon be taken.
"It's worth remembering that Limbaugh is the tone-setter for the GOP-line conservative media. Oh, and I'm serious about my assessment of his condition today."
