So you’ve made a bronze bust of Rush Limbaugh and put it in your Hall of Famous Missourians. Now what do you do? If you’re the Missouri House, you spend $1,100 on a security camera to watch over the thing.

Limbaugh was inducted into the Hall of Famous Missourians last week, in a closed-door ceremony. The Hall includes statues and busts of the Show-Me State’s most illustrious citizens: Harry S. Truman, Walt Disney, Stan Musial. Limbaugh’s is the only one with a dedicated camera. Republican legislative leaders were worried about vandalism, Clerk Adam Crumbliss told the Associated Press.

<..> “If they thought that the bust might be defaced or vandalized and they have to guard it with a camera, it’s another indication that maybe they shouldn’t have put it there,” said Jones, D-St. Louis. “It’s another chapter in this never-ending saga of this man who deserves no honor in the people’s house.”

What a waste of money and bronze.

If you have to worry that much about vandalism, it kind of tells you something about the quality of your inductee.

Nah, I don't think he qualifies for the "Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame".

If I were from the same state as Rush, I'd be ashamed of Rush, not proud of him!
