That was, believe it or not, the result of a lengthy discussion in which
it was concluded that the Hitler quotes were appropriate because they
were intended to ridicule his views.  I don't necessarily agree with
that line of reasoning, but the difference here is that while Hitler is
relatively ancient history, Limbaugh is very much part of the current
political landscape and were added by someone who espouses his views,
which in my mind makes them political propaganda.
