Looks like he is getting the bum's rush:

Rush Limbaugh is expected to be dropped from a group bidding to buy the St. Louis Rams, according to three NFL sources.

Dave Checketts, chairman of the NHL's St. Louis Blues and the point man in the Limbaugh group attempting to buy the Rams, realizes he must remove the controversial conservative radio host from his potential role as a minority member in the group in order to get approval from other NFL owners, the sources said.

Limbaugh is a carbunkle on the ass of humanity. Someone needs to lance him. However, he's a reflection of society. Otherwise, he wouldn't be popular.

People need to despise other people. We need for someone to be inferior to us, stupider, lazier, bigger liars, cheaters, thieves. We *have* to have someone to hate. There's a huge market for it, and Rush is selling, baby. Without a Them, there is no Us.

If there was big money to be made in espousing peace and love on the radio for fifteen hours a week, that's what he'd be doing.
