Bust Of Rush Limbaugh to be Added to The Hall of Famous Missourians in MO Capitol Rotunda

See this crap right here Misery? This kinda crap is embarrassing to every Miserian, yours truly most emphatically included.

I am disappoint, Missouri. Very, very disappoint.

Actually, of course, it's the fault of Republicans in the MO legislature, and Pat Tilley (R-Perryville) in particular.

Man, I couldn't believe it when I saw that Limbaugh had been added to a mural of famous Missourians on the flood wall in Cape Girardeau. Right up there with Mark Twain, Omar Bradley, George Washington Carver and Black Jack Pershing. That was embarrassing enough...but Limbaugh's from that very town, and it's about an order of magnitude less embarrassing than this nonsense. Now in Jeff City, alongside Truman, Sacajawea and Hubble, we're gonna have Rush Limbaugh,  man who has made millions of dollars poisoning the minds of the...well, let's say: most intellectually vulnerable of our citizens. A man who is a professional bullshitter, who has degraded Americans' ability to deliberate together. Nice.

What's really despicable is Tilly's moronic, sophistical defense:

"It's not the Hall of Universally Loved Missourians...it's the Hall of Famous Missourians."

So...is there a bust of Jesse James in there? Cole Younger? Tom Pendergast? (Answer, incidentally: no.) Because if not, I call bullshit on this. In fact, I call bullshit on this anyway. There is no doubt whatsoever that busts in this part of the rotunda are supposed to be for Missourians who are famous and admirable. It's not the Hall of Famous Or Infamous Missourians. If Tilly is serious about this defense, then he needs to get right on these other busts. Hell, in fact, I insist that they immediately commission a bust of Jame Earl Ray. Now there's a famous Missourian.

I mean, it's just the Hall of Famous Missourians, right? It's not the Hall of Admirable Missourians...not the Hall of Non-Jackass Missourians...

Not anymore, anyway.
