People need to bite their tongues more often, particularly on social media. Say what you will about Joe Biden, but he had it right when he spoke about Rush Limbaugh at his recent CNN town hall. Biden made it clear he did not like Limbaugh's political views and his history of racism and misogyny. (If you are unaware of those comments, just Google the topic and there will be plenty of examples.) But he added that he felt badly that Limbaugh was suffering from a terminal illness and, as the father of a son who died of cancer, he would not wish cancer on anyone.
That is a classy response.
And, FTR, Trump's gift of the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Limbaugh turns my stomach. The man is unworthy. Just look at the other journalists who have received the award: no one will compare Rush favorably with Edward R Murrow or Tom Brokaw.
Good post.
