The Rules

I will give him credit for one thing- when he got lung cancer, he went on a huge apology tour for his promoting smoking, which is more than pretty much any conservative would do today.

I thought about that then I got mad all over again because of the “Now that it affects me, it’s important!” angle. But yeah, at least he was apologetic about that one thing and it would def be unthinkable any regressive would apologise about anything today.

Rush Limbaugh (who coincidentally replaced Downey when Downey got fired from his job) took the “smoking is a-ok!” to his lung-cancerous grave

Oh yeah, it's a very small amount of credit, but I will give it where it's due. He was otherwise a colossal piece of shit.
