I disagree, partially. I do agree that Rush rarely does anything without forethought, but I heard the segment in question.

Hillary was tossed a softball about the EPA air quality report by perky Katie. Hillary replied something to the effect of "I'll be happy to talk about that later. Today is reserved for remembrance and honoring our fallen." (Excuse the paraphrase, please.)

Hillary then spent six or seven sentences tearing into Bush and the handling of the air quality report (despite saying she wouldn't do that).

Immediately afterward, Rush played a tape of Rumsfeld's remarks at the Pentagon, where Rummy was paying genuine homage to America's patriots - our soldiers.

Rush was incensed, and asked whether Americans wanted to hear Rumsfeld extolling the virtues of those who have sacrificed their lives in service to the country or to hear a "screaming witch" griping about the poor air quality at ground zero, where two years ago today a group of islamic idiots burnt thousands of gallons of jet-A, as well as all of the contents and construction materials in the buildings themselves.

IMO, he was right. Hillary is trying to set herself up to be a candidate for president, and she'll say or do anything to tear into Bush, no matter the occasion or impropriety of her comments.

I think that's true. The funny thing is it's really stupid for her to do this. I'd heard she has a political tin ear, this pretty much proves it. She has 9 flying monkeys out there to rip into the president for her, allowing her to take the high road if she wishes, and appear presidential and appear to have some gravitas.

The one fortunate thing about evil is that it always over-reaches (David Copperfield). The 'craps can't get past their anger, bitterness, frustration, and hatred of W to follow any sort of coherent strategy to contend for the White House.
