How low will the right wing go?

It’s not just teabagger extremists who are capable of decidedly loathsome acts; the rest of the cranks on the Right can be just as much of an amoral bunch when they set their sights on a victim of fair size – such as, in this case, a 12-year-old boy speaking at a healthcare rally about his recently-deceased mother.

Seeing this sort of mindless and hateful crap being aimed at such an innocent victim makes my opinion of mankind sink a little more every day. Especially with Rush “fat-bag-of-mashed-up-jackass” Limbaugh so casually claiming that he would actually tell the kid that his mother would’ve died anyway – seriously? How the fuck can anyone show such a complete lack of compassion? I’m not one who regularly uses the “where’s your human empathy?” shtick, but this is just … depressing.
