I caught a bit of Rush Limpdick's show a few weeks back while on the highway and there was fuck-all on the dial. The commercials between him blovinating about things he didn't know shit about (and didn't care to know shit about) was just one charlatan scam after another, whether it was get-rich-quick schemes, tax avoidance schemes that promised you'd never have to pay taxes again if you just purchased their kit, yada yada yada. It was like a fucking parade of scammers, if we had a real FTC their investigators could make their pay just by prosecuting half of Rush Blowhard's advertisers.
I think at this point, the GOP has already self-selected against intelligence...
