Conflating the crush of Rush
(while avoiding the decontextualization of power imbalances...) Yesterday (while contemplating a new Hillary Clinton comedy book that Dr. Helen linked), I opined that maybe there was a "bright side": Maybe Clinton II will conflate the annals of history into the annals of comedy.Today I see evidence of what can only be called a rush to conflation, headlined, "Hillary Laughs at Limbaugh Endorsement": Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton drew a big laugh Sunday by saying on national TV that radio host Rush Limbaugh has "always had a crush" on her.A Rush crush? Come on! Is this really comedy, or do they secretly love each other? I'll say this for Hillary; she may be hedging her bets with the gag routine, but the first step in dealing with an issue is talking about it. I think they need each other more than either of them realize. For once I agree with Hillary. Rush has always had a crush on her. The only question remaining is what Hillary is being too coy to voice. Is it mutual? Has Hillary always had a crush on Rush? Or is this one of those relationships where there might be a power imbalance? If so, then which of the two has the greater power, and which one is in the subordinate, um, position? Hmm... I mean, who's the, um, heavy in this? Now come on. Really! I'm trying to be serious here! Any ideas? posted by Eric on 05.05.08 at 09:14 AM

Get real, drink some coffee to nullify the bourbon. (or do Lefties only drink single malt scotch?) Limbaugh despises Hillary and Barak. He's just stirring the pot hoping the Democrats will fission in the fall and give the Republicans the Presidency and both Houses of Congress.
