Should I throw out my Rush Limbaugh book?

[Death Metal Moe]

<p>I hate to throw things out, especially books.&nbsp; But this old book &quot;See I Told you so&quot;, the follow up to his &quot;The way things ought to be&quot; has been sitting in my room for like a fucking decade now and I don't think I ever cracked the book open to read the liner notes.&nbsp; I was a big Conservative backer as a kid and read his 1st book cover to cover.&nbsp; But over the years I've moved very far left from where I was.&nbsp; People like Limbaugh like to present you with a very Black and White world, but as we all know, the world is made out of shades of gray.</p><p>So what should I do?&nbsp; Toss the chubby drug taker's book because he can't get a rod, or put it on my bookshelf?</p>

<p>Survey says.......TOSS THAT FUCKER!!!</p><p>BTW I agree completely, I loved Rush's first book and believed what he and other conservatives said for quite a while. I felt like they had the same ideals as me and were more real than liberals and democrats. Over the past 6 or 7 years I've changed my views much more to the left side as well. I have always been liberal about certain topics, but others I was more right leaning, though that is not the case anymore. Fuck that fat limp prick!</p>

<p>I think if choice #2 was &quot;Toss the Faggot Book&quot; then that probably would be the right answer for you. </p><p>But I saw some secret love in the wording of #2.&nbsp; </p><p>Keep this special book.&nbsp; Always cherish it. &nbsp; </p>

<p>Why throw out something you've never read?&nbsp; </p><p>Read it and see what you agree and disagree with.&nbsp; Reading always stimulates thought, even if it's something you don't see eye to eye on with the author. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Truth is timeless, my friend.&nbsp; If you think thoughts and ideals from &quot;over a decade ago&quot; aren't worth anything, then you might as well toss out any music from the 20th century or before.</p><p>And forget about reading the great philosophers from Ancient Greece and Asia. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>I've loved the few books I read by PJ O'Rourke and have a few of his older ones that I never read and almost don;t want to read them as I think the points/issues will be irrelevant.</p><p>I'm not gonna toss them though.</p>

dont toss it just use it to squash bugs.

[DarkHippie]

I hate the idea of tossing a book.&nbsp; Either keep it or donate it to a library.&nbsp;

I liked the book myself, but I have a tendency to not keep books around long after I finish them.&nbsp; Toss it.&nbsp; Or burn it.&nbsp;

And how I cut my teeth, politically.&nbsp; PJ's more of a Libertarian than Rush, who's more of a Pat Robertson-type Conservative. <br /></p><p>As far as Rush goes, I'd suggest getting a dog and using the pages when you walk him.

<p>i wouldn't give that guy the steam off my piss...</p><p>toss that bitch</p>

[Keotok]

Rip out pages and highlight random text.&nbsp; Then send back to him, page by page.&nbsp; He will think that you are trying to stalk him, or give him cryptic messages.&nbsp; Fun!
