I found
this article by Linwood Barclay, who argues that Rush is the one that is faking EDS (extreme dick syndrome):
Now, I know this may offend those who suffer from this particular condition, and these individuals might not like it much when I suggest that a certain person with this diagnosis is exaggerating his symptoms, but I have to say, I think Rush Limbaugh is just pretending to be a dick.
While the right-wing radio host does exhibit most, if not all, of the common characteristics of this behaviour, it's so rare for all of them to coalesce at a single moment that one can only conclude Limbaugh's most recent performances are nothing short of fraudulent.
The article also includes the most common symptoms of EDS:
1. Exhibits a level of arrogance rooted in a feeling of superiority, without having any attributes to feel superior about.
2. Is capable of achieving levels of hypocrisy (railing against drug addicts when you are one, for example) previously thought unattainable.
3. Blow-hardedness.
4. Is indifferent to the woes and misfortunes of the disadvantaged.
5. Lies his ass off.
6. Goes to the "6 items or less" checkout with a dozen things.
7. Never lets ignorance of a subject keep him from shooting his mouth off about it.
8. Believes facts are overrated.
9. Chews with his mouth open.
10. Always finds some little thing the waitress did wrong to justify not leaving a tip.
The article concludes that Rush is really a liberal plant:
My guess, in fact, is that Rush Limbaugh is a liberal plant. A Democratic plant. The Democrats, who appear to be on the verge of winning back both houses of Congress, don't want to leave anything to chance. What better way to turn things their way than for a prominent spokesperson for the right wing (nudge nudge, wink wink) to say something so astonishingly and despicably vile that it will make fair-minded Republicans vote Democrat, or at the very least, stay home.
I think Linwood may be onto something.
