Line 32:
* [[Enforced Plug]]: Limbaugh will often introduce a topic, only to give it some kind of twist to establish a tenuous connection to one of his sponsors. Some find this extremely irritating, while others find it entertainingly absurd.
** For one particularly groan-inducing example, a listener called in to say that he had to take two showers after voting for Hillary Clinton during Operation Chaos. Limbaugh responded, "If you had followed my advice and gotten a Rinnai tankless water heater, you wouldn't have needed to take two showers. And I'll tell you why..."
** Recently, he made a statement saying he, against all odds, supports video games in the California V. EMI lawsuit. Granted, it had to do with being a tool for censorship by bipartisan democrats.

** It's not ''that'' surprising. Governmental regulations on private industry is a classic [[Berserk Button]] for dudes like Limbaugh.
*** Unless you're talking about regulating "violent music" in the wake of Columbine. Though, to be fair, that was pretty much every single pundit with access to a mic and a radio show, not just Rush.
