RUSH LIMBAUGH SAYS "DISASTER" FOR PRES. OBAMA & "NURSE RATCHED" FOR SEC. HILLARY CLINTON
Just watched the Rush Limbaugh interview with Jamie Gangel on The Today Show. When asked what words came to mind about Pres. Obama and Sec. of State Clinton, Rush Limbaugh said "Disaster" for Pres. Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "Nurse Ratched." I think I'll start the clocking ticking down for the next Breaking News story...the demise of Rush Limbaugh's career.

Disaster - The word derives from Middle French désastre and that from Old Italian disastro, which in turn comes from the Greek pejorative prefix δυσ-, (dus-) "bad" + ἀστήρ (aster), "star". The root of the word disaster ("bad star" in Greek) comes from an astrological theme in which the ancients used to refer to the destruction or deconstruction of a star as a disaster. (Source: Wikipedia)
Nurse Mildred Ratched is the main antagonist from Ken Kesey's 1962 novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, as well as the 1975 film.
A cold, sadistic and passive-aggressive tyrant, Nurse Ratched has become the stereotype of the nurse as battle axe. She has also become a popular metaphor for the corrupting influence of power and authority in bureaucracies such as the mental institution in which the novel is set. (Source: Wikipedia)
