once again, it's apples and oranges, Goppy.

Limbaugh, as dispicable as he may (or may not) be, is NOT on the taxpayer's dime. He is funded by his sponsors. Once he stops making money for his sponsors, he will be dropped like a hot potato, regardless of his views.

Speaker Pelosi, on the other hand, is fully funded by the taxpayers of this nation -- not even just those from San Francisco, but the entire US -- as is every other US Representative.

So, when Limbaugh demonstrates consipicuous consumption and appears to burn his money because of an apparent sense of entitlement, it is, perhaps, dispicable, but no sweat off me, because I am not in any way responsible for his funding. When Speaker Pelosi (or any other member of Congress, democrat or republican) demonstrates conspicuous consumption and appears to burn money because of an apparent sense of entitlement, it IS my concern because those are my tax dollars at work.

See the difference?

  --But why should anyone take anything you (or anyone else on the right) cries about when you're dead silent regarding much, MUCH, more egregious instances of taxpayer funded greed perpetrated by Republicans? Exactly, amazed...We don't care what you suspect Nancy Pelosi has done. Not at all. ;-(
