Ben Baker co-sponsors bill designating January 12 each year as Rush Limbaugh Day in Missouri


Rep. Ben Baker, R-Neosho, has signed on as a co-sponsor or House Bill 1200 which would declare January 12 each year as Rush Limbaugh Day in Missouri.

Limbaugh, a Cape Girardeau native, died last week from lung cancer.

The bill's sponsor is Rep. Hardy Billington, R-Poplar Bluff. As of today, Baker is one of 31 co-sponsors, all Republican, but is the only one from the southwest corner of the state.

From the bill:

Citizens of this state are encouraged to celebrate the day by participating in appropriate events and activities to remember the life of the famous Missourian and groundbreaking radio host.

Remind me again, what is the purpose for having a State Legislature?

I hate to be Debbie downer, but a man that has preached hate, name caller, chauvinist, racist. Why would we want to give him a day that we celebrate his insanity. I hate to speak ill of the dead, but there it is.

We need to replace the Ben Baker ASAP.
