I want to make up a statement, a la the Christmas movie "It's a Wonderful Life", which I don't know if it airs in the UK, but I can't come up with a good one. The closest I can get is, "Every time a GOP bigot misogynist dies, an angel doesn't have to work so hard".

America is a better place today.
To borrow from Bette Davis' quote about Joan Crawford:
"You should never say bad things about the dead, only good ... Rush Limbaugh is dead. Good."

The Economist recounts some examples of Limbaugh's material:
“Feminism,” he maintained, “was established so that unattractive women could have easier access to the mainstream of society.” He called gay men “perverts”, mocked people dying of AIDS and treated the rare phone-in guest who disagreed with him to a “caller abortion”—hanging up after playing the sound of a vacuum motor. He told an African-American caller to “take that bone out of your nose and call me back,” remarked that “all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson,” and said that the National Basketball Association should be renamed “the Thug Basketball Association”.
He had particular scorn for Hillary Clinton, who he said kept her trophies in a “testicle lockbox,” and Barack Obama, who he mused may not have been an American citizen (he played a song on his programme called “Barack the Magic Negro”).
