You've gotta love this kind of pointless snarkiness. It comes from David Limbaugh (yes, Rush's brother) and it's the perfect combination of smugness and stupidity:

Ahh, WorldNutDaily. It is a joy to be called demonic, Satan, evil, murderous and otherwise dehumanized once in a while.
The thing is, it's just this kind of speech that incites political violence. All throughout his hateful little essay he essentially disparages the humanity of the people he disagrees with. And you wonder that people like Eric Rudolph come out of the woodworks and start blowing up gay bars and abortion clinics (and Olympic celebrations). It's this kind of crap.
