Compared to Michael Jackson, Limbaugh is a well-adjusted poster child for normalcy and coherence, LOL. Just saw Jackson's mug shot from his booking. Yuck. The six years I spent in the Balkans taught me a lot about societies that embrace hatred. The consequences are never good. But the people who spew hatred the most in the media and political circles will never have to endure the carnage they provoke - they won't be in the middle of the riots or chased out of their homes at night or watch their hometown be destroyed by the "other group" they demonized so thoroughly. In fact it's a route to wealth and power for many hatemongers. The only defense is the American consumer tuning them out. Until they do, I remain a serious pessimist. My preliminary (though still undecided) interest in Wesley Clark came from hearing him talk about respecting other peoples and points of view. Hardly any other candidate has voiced that need.
