Limbaugh's lexicon: ThinkProgress runs a brilliant comparison of comments by Rush Limbaugh.

When Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib are tortured, ridiculed, and even murdered by US guards, Limbaugh said it was "sort of like hazing, a fraternity prank. Sort of like that kind of fun." When conservative Republican Pat Buchanan got a pie in the face, his tune was different:
[W]ho is it that is responsible for fomenting harm against others? Who is it that cannot tolerate hearing things they disagree with, and who is it that reports to heckling and throwing salad dressing or ice cream pies on conservative Republican speakers? It’s the left, my dear. It is the left, my good friends, that is out there fomenting violence.
