Klavan Issues The Limbaugh Challenge

This is great stuff. Sardonic, ironic and pointed, Andrew Klavan hits the nail on the head with his forthright challenge today to liberals in self-described moderate clothing: listen to Rush Limbaugh "an hour a day for several days." Read his Challenge for yourself.

The sad fact is that any self-described moderate reading this Challenge will not take it on. Mr. Klavan says this is because they are all intellectual cowards. That's true, but there is more to it. Deep down, liberals in general just don't care about a public debate with their fellow citizens. They care about winning, pure and simple. And so long as liberals continue to gain any traction among the electorate, Rush Limbaugh-is-a-racist-homophobe-hate-monger-nazi will be repeated like a mantra, no matter what the facts may be.

Needless to say, when such charges stop moving the polls liberals won't revise their opinion of Rush Limbaugh. They will simply move on to smear another opponent, and the seemingly endless succession of news cycles heaped on news cycles will continue.
