Quote:(Reuters) - A plan to place a bust in the Missouri Capitol of Rush Limbaugh, the conservative broadcaster embroiled in controversy over his calling a university student a "slut" on the air, has upset local Democrats who are trying to block the effort.
The bust of Limbaugh, proposed by Republican state House Speaker Steve Tilley, would sit alongside prominent Missouri natives such as writer Mark Twain and former president Harry Truman in the Capitol rotunda.
Missouri Democratic U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill, who was once called "a commie babe liberal" by Limbaugh, said she opposed honoring him.
"I draw the line," at putting Limbaugh's bust in the Capitol, McCaskill told MSNBC on Monday.
Haha oh wow. I may even go protest that.
