Missouri's Republican lawmakers want to memorialize Rush Limbaugh, a conservative talk show host who defined the genre and died earlier this year, with a day in his honor.

Rush was a fine American who supported Law and Order, and respected the Rights of all honorable people. He deserves this Honor. He was not the person the liberals say he was. He was better than most of those calling him names.

Debra Riffle

It would be impossible to get a nation, divided as ours is, to agree on the size of a postage stamp, much less on who deserves to have a day of recognition. Rush Limbaugh was the voice for many who felt shut out of main stream media. He deserves to be recognized in this way.

Cindy Evans

Rush is a native Missourian who had a major impact on our state and nation. Whether you agreed with him or not, he impacted our nation and culture, and should be recognized for that achievement.

Opponents say Limbaugh's status as a native son is not a point of pride for Missouri. They say his divisive rhetoric has contributed to a contentious political atmosphere.

For what reason? What a clown 🤡 I have to be nice 😊

It doesn't surprise me. I live in Missouri where ignorance and stupidity is a Olympic sport. Many of us our humiliated by Limbaugh et al. If he gets a " day" from our legislature, so too should a piece of dog feces.

Denzel TW

What makes him sooo special he deserves a day

Sarah Perry

I do not feel he represents Missouri well.

Ed South

How despicable, the man was stuck in the capitol at midnight to have a statue in his name placed there. How much in taxes has he paid to Missouri. Guessing 0.

Cecil Schick

He's no one special

Chad W

Exactly the type of person I DONT want my kids to be.

Robert Cone

This man was nothing more than a hate monger and made his living promoting such. He should have never had his bust in our capital let alone a rush limbaugh day.

Max

He would never get a fair evaluation in the liberal confines of Columbia.

Kim h

I agree with what everyone is saying about him. Why people would even consider this person is outrageous. Not a role model to be honored

Max

You obviously don't agree with those that like Rush.

Wendi Newman

Why would anyone want to honor such a vile man?

DENNIS WRIGHT

He doesn't deserve it!! Anyone who lies like that doesn't deserve to be honored! Are we really going to honor people like this? Another step backwards!!

Mary Ann Pulley

This man spewed division, racism, misogynistic, false information, and ungodly behaviors!

It's very cool.

Bill Douglas

UM athletics is an arm of govt. they do not earn anything. That Univ produces nothing but obnoxious computer geeks who get jobs for state govt agencies like the DOT spending their days synchronizing traffic lights that nobody understands like the asburgers nerd we have in my hometown up here in NWMO

What a tragic waste of money.

Bill Douglas

So what are you going to do about it?

Bill Douglas

so what are you going to do about it? Just sit there and complain online or are you going to actually do something to put a stop to this we are here in my hometown. We are filing complaints against any state employee we can think of who graduated from this university: REVOKE THEIR DEGREES!!!

Will Mason

I didn't know we had 250 million laying around to spend on sports.

Bill Douglas

Would you like the name and number of a state employee who is a graduate of this university? Who continues to support this athletic program? Would you join our effort to remove him from state employment for being a UM grad?

Harry D

MU Athletics makes their money the hard way - they earn it.

Zaos Gonzolez

This is so destructive to the environment. I want MU to close for good. MU RUINS MO!

Bill Douglas

if you really believe that, what do you propose we do about the alumni and supporters of this university and it’s athletic programs? are you willing to join our effort to hold these people accountable? Would you be willing to start filing complaints against alumni of this university employers?

Like most drivers, I have one hand holding my fast food, other hand holding my cell phone, a knee on the steering wheel, and rarely look up from my cell phone so I don't know if other drivers are so irresponsible to be driving distracted or not. I certainly don't drive distracted, that's bad. FJB

Faye Friedrich

Many time ppl are seen looking/using phone while driving crossing the line on the road or having to slam on their brakes so they don't hit the car in front of them.

Culture isn't legislated.
