Any publicity is good publicity- especially good publicity

Limbaugh's faux pas is Web hit

Congratulations to Barry Bozeman of RushLimbaughtomy for attracting the attention of Knoxville's finest birdcage liner:

Rush Limbaugh's verbal fumble is proving to be an online touchdown for Knoxville resident Barry Bozeman.

Bozeman, 57, operates a parody weblog on the Internet about the controversial commentator.

And you can probably guess Bozeman's political persuasion by the name of his Web page - rushlimbaughtomy.blogspot.com.

In generally conservative East Tennessee, it may come as a surprise that Knoxville is home to a "Dittohead Recovery Zone," as Bozeman calls his page. "I'm really just interested in hacking them off," Bozeman said Thursday of Limbaugh followers, the self-described Dittoheads.

Bozeman, who helped organize a Vietnam War protest while a student at the University of Tennessee, said he was "breaking out the champagne" when he heard of Limbaugh's resignation from ESPN.

"I am really happy about it. I refused to watch him," said Bozeman, who served as a page for former U.S. Sen. Albert Gore Sr., D-Tenn., in 1961.

Way to go, Barry; you're my new hero....
