Letter to Rush Limbaugh

My Dearest Rush,

I understand that you find the idea of Christians held hostage to be such a hoot. This will be of great comfort to all believers, of any creed, who choose action instead of your routine of cowardly commentary. Clearly, you do not believe in anything, what-so-ever. The current is changing. How do you plan to ride out the next wave? Your faux colors are showing, but they will stick to you in the coming days. You are known by the company you keep.

If you believe in anything that the hateful, extreme Christian right espouse, do you feel that your deafness is punishment for your sins? Have you repented these sins? Do you believe such ideas are bullshit? Where do YOU stand on anything?

Besides your run-in with the law over doc-shopping, when was the last time your butt was on the line for anything (other than the draft, from which your butt saved you)? I mean, really, other than your quick Oxy-fixes?

You mock a 74-year-old man. A retired medical professor, a grandfather, for laying his ass on the line for something he truly believes in? Here is a man with everything to loose. And yet, he chooses to stand up for the end of violence. Do you think that these people didn't consider the consequences of their actions?

I would say "shame on you," but it is clear that you are incapable of shame. You go on, day after day, putting on your circus of hate. For that is what you are truly are - a hate-filled, opportunistic entertainer.

you are in my prayers,


Father Paul

p.s. I hope your cyst is feeling better, it must pain you so much to sit on it all day.
