I'm waiting for Limbaugh to start bashing Obama for helping Haiti. |
|
This is gonna happen. He can't help himself. He'll probably say it's "about race."

3. Limbaugh would criticize Obama is he didn't help. He'll criticize Obama when the US stops helping. |

I was watching a press conference and I was wondering the same thing.
I hate the way politics can be...

8. It's worse than I had imagined. Limbaugh is trying to push Reid out of the race spotlight. |

10. I still hope that POS |

crosses against the light when I'm in Manhattan, I'm sure the sun won't be in my eyes and my brakes will work as advertised but you never can tell.
Or did he actually follow through on his promise to move everything to Texas? I'm betting he didn't because the hookers, dealers and fine dining are still better in NYC.

Limbaugh is a practitioner of Rovian politics. You don't merely try to defeat your opponent despite his strong points; you attack him precisely at his strong points. If he's known for helping children, you smear him as a pedophile. If he's a war hero, you smear him as a coward, a traitor, a war criminal, and a liar about his record.

13. In his first segment today he quoted someone... |
|
...talking about how we, as a wealthy nation, shouldn't allow the conditions that existed in Haiti to go unnoticed and construed that to suggest the speaker was blaming the US for Haiti's condition. He didn't waste any time on this one.

15. The "say what?" quote of the day at doonesbury.com |
|
"They'll use this to burnish their, shall we say, 'credibility' with the black community -- in the both light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country. It's made to order for them." -- Rush Limbaugh on Obama administration and Haiti disaster

16. Coming from Limbaugh I wouldn't react with "say what?" |
|
More like, "yeah I would expect that from a racist piece of shit". Most inhabitants of the countries south of the US will be some shade of brown or black due to ancestry or location. Our response would have been the same for any country in the Western Hemisphere with Obama as the President. Limbaugh and his racist followers are the only ones bringing anything racial into this situation. It is about people who have resources helping people that do not have resources.
