The irony this time

Iowa Democratic Senator Tom Harkin has been one of those on the Senate floor blasting Rush Limbaugh the loudest. He even wondered aloud if Rush was "high" on his "drugs" when he said it. Which, as Jim Geraghty noted, is supreme irony:
What's really amazing about Tom Harkin's comment about Rush Limbaugh, speculating "maybe he was just high on his drugs again" is that it comes literally in between a statement that Rush saying something "provocative" is "despicable", and a subsequent sentence urging people to listen to "more responsible talk show hosts."
