Rush Limbaugh thinks James Bond's defining attributes are being white and Scottish
Yet another story that's irritating me today. “James Bond is a total concept put together by Ian Fleming,” Limbaugh said. “He was white and Scottish, period. That is who James Bond is.” So apparently those are Bond's two defining attributes according to Rush.
