WASHINGTON (AP) - Democrats joined Republicans on Monday in voting to name a Missouri courthouse after Rush H. Limbaugh Sr.
A thank-you gesture for the conservative radio host who has made a career of scourging Democrats and their liberal allies? Not quite.
The man whose name will be carved into the new federal courthouse in Cape Girardeau, Mo., was the commentator's grandfather, a prominent attorney and civic leader who died in 1996 at age 104 after practicing law for nearly 80 years. Before his death he was thought to be the oldest working lawyer in the country.
