Anger: Dittos
Back in the day... (One of my favorite sayings)
I had a very long drive to work. I guess all I needed to say was that I lived in California. During this long morning drive the "Rush Limbaugh Show" was on the air (mornings in Cali).
When I first heard the show I was confused by all the callers saying "dittos Rush" or "megadittos". As a new listener I was unaware that the fans of the show used that as shorthand for how much they liked the show. Once I figured it out, I thought it was pretty clever. I have not heard the show in many years, but I suppose it is still on and the callers are still saying "dittos".
Why am I boring all'yalls with this?
I was reminded of "dittos" when reading Confederate Yankee's latest fisking of a New York Times article. Maybe this is more egregious than others, I'm not sure anymore. The Times has been such a blatant propaganda arm for the Anti-War crowd over the last 3 years that I have become numb to their shenanigans. Even with this piece I have trouble getting my righteous fury up for another ride.
Maybe it is time to just link the Times article and say "Dittos".
