A new low: Limbaugh compares Sotomayor to...DAVID DUKE.
Rush Limbaugh, following a trend of conservatives depicting Sonia Sotomayor as a dangerous racist, suggested that President Obama's Supreme Court nomination had set back civil rights progress and compared Sotomayor to David Duke.

I know these attacks have been hard to stomach, but on the bright side, the repukes are handing over the latino and female vote to the dems.

5. It is kind of comical but
these idiot charges that Limpy and the Coward throw out daily are slowly picked up by the spineless media as the language around which Sotomayor's career and life will be discussed. So again, even if they are clowns of the first order, THEY control the media discussion.
For instance, most people would simply dismiss the La Raza story until it is repeated thousands of time by radio print and TV. Now it is embedded in the Sotomayor story. As such expect accusatory questions at her hearing by the likes of Inhofe.

3. Massive Cognitive Dissonance
Half his listeners probably worship Duke.
