so now we're in mythological space again. standing in for conservatives in general, which is silly in a way now that there are multiple organizations that lay claim to the category and all the real amurican stuff for which is claims to itself to stand, ace has a Problem with admitting that limbaugh and the wingnuts on fox are mainstream because it undermines both the conservative-as-victim trope and the basis for the projection (the ultra-right merely reacts to what the evil Other is already doing, etc) that's at the core of conservative self-deception with respect to themselves and their own politics.
btw the argument would try out above is preposterous, ace.
saying that limbaugh is a mainstream infotainment source day in day out is met with factoids about susan boyle (ew) and lady gaga (yay!)...how are you today? the answer is meat by-products.
