Hostile to Haiti: Rush Limbaugh is classless in attacking hemisphere's poorest country

Reacting to ex-President Bill Clinton's appointment as UN special envoy to Haiti, radio personality Rush Limbaugh had this to say yesterday:
"I'm just gonna tell you, if I was named envoy to Haiti, I'd quit government. Envoy to Haiti? You can't even pick up a prostitute down there without genuine fear of AIDS."
The poorest country in the Western Hemisphere - our neighbor - is starving. Has been ground under for decades by dictatorships. Has been battered of late by four hurricanes. Is yearning for the world's help.
And Clinton is the best hope the Haitian people have had in a long time.
What's more, you could say the same about patronizing prostitutes in the good old U.S.A. Nice, Rush. Nice.
