[imc-wmass-editorial] Limbaugh Feature?

As to the feature at the head of the queue - I haven't voted either way
on this, partially since I wanted to hear some other coments.  My sense
is that it's not really related to Western MA goings-on per se, and is really
more suited to a newswire article.  As we've discussed in the past, the
site is open for anything people want to post, but the features have
historically either been a major happening locally or globally.

Personally I don't really care enough about Rush Limbaugh to see the
need for a feature on him.  Also, a lot of what is flying around is
mostly spiteful commentary on his situation, and there was at least some
sense that we wanted to stay above that, at least from a features
perspective.

Thoughts?  I'm not going to block right now, though part of me thinks
that maybe I should.  I'm about 5% from ending this mail by noting
my block after going through the same process Carlos did the last time
he blocked a feature. ;)
