Dear Rush Limbaugh, One year ago, I made a post called Top 10 Racist Limbaugh Quotes , after you decided to say that Colin Powell’s endorsement of Barack Obama was all about race.

I’ll figure out how to use semantic tools to rate blogs’ ego quotients some day.  The lowest of the low might get the “ Bill O’Reilly ” prize, which should probably be 30 days spent in O’Reilly’s company.  Those with ego in check might earn the “Barack Obama” medal.  OK — I’m kidding with that one.  I’m sure you’ll share even better ideas for the prizes.

Hey, this must be part of the new “smart power” agenda that was started when Hillary Clinton and her Russian counter-part pushed the now-infamous “Reset” button. It would appear that “smart power” consists of the United States unilaterally disarming and allowing Russians to inspect our nuclear sites, while Russia reserves the right to pre-emptively nuke anyone it wishes.
