This week’s winner is not exactly hate mail, but since there is no legitimate compound noun for hate guest book entry, the term will have to suffice. This entry comes from Richard L. Chapman, who hails from Lima, NY. Richard writes:
You disgusting psycho! Making fun of someone– anyone– who gets taken to the hospital is the mark of an extreme lowlife with no manners, no feelings and no conscience. I am talking about Rush. You obviously have more hate in your heart than any Klan member or any skinhead. Of course it is not racism, just the rantings of an obviously mentally ill lunatic speaking from an insane asylum.
BTW is that Rush’s underwear you are smelling?
Firstly, Richard, let me thank you for taking the time out of your busy day selling crap on eBay. If you are interested in availing yourself of any of Richard’s wares, you can visit him at http://snakeandthehunterenterprises.com. I am not sure what he is selling, but it seems there are drugs involved.
Secondly, I think you may be a bit confused about what it is I do. You see, I am a Republican. And as a Republican, I take a certain Schadenfreude in the misfortunes of those, with whom I may disagree. We all do it. It is in our DNA as Republicans. Why else would Rush Limbaugh make fun of a dying Ted Kennedy? Why else would Tom Coburn ask people to pray for the death of Robert Byrd? Why else would Ann Coulter mock the 9/11 Widows, saying they enjoyed their husbands’ deaths? Why else would Michael Savage hope a caller would get AIDS and die? Why else would Bill O’Reilly attack the son of a victim of the World Trade Center?
It’s just who we are. It’s how we roll.
Thirdly, I am not sure if I am smelling Rush’s underwear. Perhaps that is the foul stench I have sensed for the past few days. I thought it was a dead rat or some cottage cheese gone bad, but now I know. Thank you for your olfactory assistance.
Finally, if you are going to be rude and crude, you should probably not use your actual email address, which can be traced to your telephone number, address, and snake oil company.
Like Glenn Beck, I’m just saying.
