Nothing new here, but in case you wanted reason 3872 to dislike him:
On the November 30 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, host Rush Limbaugh proclaimed: My “cat’s taught me more about women, than anything my whole life” because his pet cat “comes to me when she wants to be fed,” and “[s]he’s smart enough to know she can’t feed herself. She’s actually [a] very smart cat. She gets loved. She gets adoration. She gets petted. She gets fed. And she doesn’t have to do anything for it.”
As opposed to Rush, who toils in the fields all day for the wheat to make his own bread.
And as for his poor cat, she has to deal with an insufferable asshole 365 days a year. I’d say that’s something.

Jill, the term is assberet.
Oh, he’s probaly nice to the cat.
Maine Coons talk back. Rush Limbaugh, meet Pablo.
I’m sure kitty knows where he hides the oxy and uses it often.
I’m just surprised ol’ Rush even has a pet, since he’s so self-centered.
As a cat-lover, I am glad he’s praising his cat, although I wish he wouldn’t say stupid things about women while doing so.
Dear God. Rush Limbaugh is a cat person? RUSH LIMBAUGH?
I feel ill. And like I should switch to ferrets.
Heh. I think the cat is being compensated with something more than food. I know that, given the opportunity night after night, it would take more than a lifetime of grub to convince me not to smother him in his sleep.
And he wonders why he’s been divorced three times….
Then he should come meet Tigger. My Main Coon will not only talk back, he’ll kick Rush’s ass.
It’s probably a rare breed of ferret or something; no real cat would ever share a house with Rush Limbaugh.
So, apparently he’s saying that the only reason a human woman would want to get near him is if she was starving and he controlled the only supply of food?
Hmm. Methinks that may be the only intelligent thing he’s ever said.
Wait, is there some type of etymological reason one can’t say asshat? Not that I don’t adore assberet, but I’ve just never heard it and I’ve heard asshat all the time.
And I’m off-topic.
The only problem I find in “asshat” is the “sh” sequence.
Rush is apparently one of those idiots who thinks that animals NEED humans because they can’t manage alone. Sure, domestication puts animals at a disadvantage (and it’s humans who domesticate animals), but cats and dogs go feral all the time and manage to feed themselves.
Men who glorify female dependency are usually low self-esteem types who deep down don’t think they have anything of value to offer a woman. They believe if she wasn’t financially or otherwise dependent on them, then she’d leave for somebody better.
In Rush’s case, it’s probably a fair assumption.
Funny, I have three male cats who behave the exact same way. And FWIW, they’re nothing like my boyfriend.
Has Rush been taken in for neutering yet?
(P.S. I doubt he feeds the cat, if there is one, himself. He probably has the maid do it.)
Oh, he probably feeds it. I’d bet serious money that he makes the maid clean out the cat litter, though. Feeding is the fun part.
Assberet is just funnier.
Well, this *is* a man who had his maid run to the drug dealer for him, so.
