I am SO ANGRY at Rush Limbaugh right now!! In his last segment he really bashed and basically made fun of people who have Autism or Asperger's Syndrome. He apparently has not done " his homework" on this one.He read from a article, but I didn't hear who had written it. My granddaughter and husband both suffer from Aspergers.It has been a very difficult journey for our daughter and son in law. Rush will get LOTS of angry emails concerning this!!!

Anger happens when things don't meet one's expectations. Apparently, you have an expectation either that Rush will be completely correct about everything he says or that he will agree with your take on things (which, in the minds of many, is the same thing as being right--"You agree with me; therefore, you are right." ). Neither of these is possible in any world the human population of which is greater than one. Once you realize this, you will be able to be a lot less angry.

As far as Asperger's syndrome is concerned, I'm pretty sure I've worked for people with it.

I missed it.

That sounds *very* unlike Rush.

heh heh. ya Rush doesn't know much about science. I think he should stick to politics. He also disparages ADHD people, which I am one of. You just gotta laugh it off though. It is a shame tho.
