And once again, word to David Brock. (The man's everywhere these days.)

Media Matters for America has produced a commercial inside of a week and already have it on the major cable news channels -- including Fox News -- in Washington D.C.

The commercial compares Donald Rumsfield on the torture of Iraqis to Rush Limbaugh on the torture of Iraqis. I'm not saying the ad's necessarily a good idea -- while it definitely says "Rush Limbaugh is really offensive," it also kinda paints Rumsfield as a moderate in comparison, which maybe is not what we want to be doing now. But regardless of overall strategy and all that, word up to David Brock for calling Limbaugh on his offensive language.

Also, some more from the right wing :

Instead of putting joysticks, I would have liked to have seen dynamite put in their orifices. -- Michael Savage

I don't mean to be too comedic in the political arena, but these so called abuse photos frankly are mild by comparisons to what goes on in South of Market clubs in San Francisco. -- Michael Savage (And I wasn't going to comment, but what is it with people who don't understand the difference between "consent" and "non-consensual" sex? *gets infuriated, not least because she's about to paste more of the same in... starting with our dear friend Rush*)

"Others remembered photos of a shackled prisoner repeatedly banging his head against the wall. There were images of three U.S. soldiers beating an Iraqi prisoner. And there were many sexual images, some of simulated acts, and others including actual intercourse between male and female soldiers." These guys got to be careful. They're now calling sex torture. This is the fastest 180 among the progressive pop culture society I have seen. -- Rush Limbaugh (he claimed he was quoting the bits in quotes there)

[F]or 13 or 14 days now, all we have seen on the front pages of America's newspapers is a group of obviously twisted young people with leashes and weird sex acts, the kind of thing that you might find on any college campus nowadays, being perpetrated by people in uniform. -- Oliver North in an interview on Hannity and Colmes.

Carl Levin and Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton, The New Yorker, CBS have destroyed the war effort against terror. And if, God forbid, a suitcase bomb goes off you'll know who to blame. I'm -- hey I'm not going to mince words, there's no grey zone here. It's black and white, it's them versus us and the enemy within on their side. -- Michael Savage
