PASWO: Rush Limbaugh remains a big, fat idiot...

[elfs]

Man, you have to admire this comment from Rush Limbaugh, addressing a comment by President Obama:

This is what this regime does. This regime tries to tell us how we are feeling. "This month more Americans woke up, got dressed, and headed to work in an office or factory or storefront?" "Storefront?" "Factory?" These are all Marxist and Leninist terms. So is "worker."

Wow, I guess in Limbaugh's world the only real producers in our economy are "owner", "investor" and "at-will employee."

I'm pretty convinced that I'm a "worker." Wasn't it just six or seven years ago, you know, during the whole ascendancy of the "permanent Republican majority" things, that "knowledge worker" was the new career du jour? And weren't universities to be relabled "knowledge factories?"

(I couldn't find an equivalently suitable "knowledge storefront." Pity, that.)

Well, "storefront" IS now used to differentiate from "internet store" so there is that...
