    Even as a conservative, I like Elton John more than I like Limbaugh, and I don't dislike Limbaugh.

    I have a gay relative, who is just outraged that Elton John took the money, but as someone on here pointed out, Elton spends almost as fast as he earns.

    I've never listened to Rush. Is he one of those family values conservatives?

    I don't listen to him either. Is he as homophobic as some of the conservative talk show hosts? His friendship with George Brett would lead me to think he might be a little more accepting.

    Rush used to work for the Royals back in the 1980s. He was basically a flunky.

    Then he was a flunky who became close friends with the best player in team history.

    Gay or bi. He's married with several kids, but this has been the worst-kept secret in baseball for about 30 years.

    They're so close that Elton only demanded seven figures to sing at his wedding. As Howard Stern joked yesterday, "Wow, I had Billy Joel and Natalie Maines sing for free at mine."

    My money's on Melissa Etheridge singing at his next wedding.

    Michael Musto in The Village Voice:

    After reading that, I just have to ask, who's the hate monger, Michael or Rush?

    And what is the evidence that Rush is an "anti-gay hate monger"? Michael doesn't provide any.

    And I suppose that this is the kind of crap Michael writes in his sleep. He certainly didn't spend a lot of time looking in to the facts, because then he would have known that the wedding was in Palm Beach not Palm Springs.

    Elton donates all his private gig money to his AIDS charity.
