Rush also said that the soliders were just blowing off steam and having some fun.

My lord! Did Rush REALLY say that?

CALLER: It was like a college fraternity prank

LIMBAUGH: 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?

--------------------------------

Limbaugh was foaming at the mouth today in a manner that was a detriment to the conservative cause. He came off as the personification of the worst unhinged bloodthirsty warmonger caricature ever dreamed up. Some poster here said he was off his meds today and that is an understatement from what I heard. I must admit that I kept switching the channels on my car radio but continuously came back out of morbid curiosity.

Limbaugh was not only unhappy about any idea of an apology but he denigrated the treatment of the prisoners as minor collage like hazing or something no worse than seen in a S&M porn film and thought perhaps the kids were just a product of popular college in which case it's all the liberal's fault. Basically he treated the subject as a manufactured partisan liberal attack and not a real event.

He also endorsed torture for the good of humanity as he read from some book on the necessities of torturing our enemies as the only way to save ourselves and basically was saying it's a good thing we have people willing to carry out such tasks.

Not finished there he then gloated in our mass killing of German and Japanese civilians in WWII through carpet bombing. - and I mean gloated. No apologies needed for our past actions and none needed now. His rantings did Bush no favors, that's for sure. Didn't make the conservative movement look too good either.
