Dems Mock Limbaugh With Online Form Letter Apology
As if the Democrats needed to rub in the fact that they still have a leg up in the 'Internet' and 'sense of humor' departments, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has launched a new site called "I'm Sorry Rush." Here, visitors can construct apology notes to Rush Limbaugh from a number of elected Republican officials who have recently crossed the talk show gasbag.
The site hosts a form letter, equipped with drop-down menus in order to complete sentences. The letter begins, "Dear Rush, I'm sorry that I called you [an opportunistic brick thrower/ugly/an idiot]," in reference to comments made by Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, Congressman Phil Gingrey of Georgia, and Governor Mark Sanford of South Carolina. All three men have made comments that were dismissive of Rush, only to later backtrack and apologize for repudiating the conservative, talk-radio star.
Of course, this is all part of an attempt by Democrats to make Rush Limbaugh the unofficial figurehead of the Republican party. Their rationale does make a lot of strategic sense when you consider that this is a man who mocked Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's disease, used illegal prescriptions to feed an oxycodone habit, and said, "Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream." He is a fine American, that Rush Limbaugh. [From: I'm Sorry Rush, and Daily News]

At least Rush can give a speech without clinging to a teleprompter, and when was the last time Rush added over a trillion dollars to the deficit in 30 days?
Welcome to 'change', i.e. extreme liberal socialism, big taxes and Big BIG BIG $pending.
MadMikeMar 5th 2009 7:09PM
AMEN! :-) Not that I agree with Rush, but the Dems have nothing to snare at blowing over a trillion USD that did, NOTHING for the economy. Wow, a trillion dollar, "oops!"
And to think, $5MM would make $330,000 a year in interest. If I only had $5MM of that $1 Trillion.

El Rusho is a pompous ASS in love with the sound of his own voice.
jamesMar 5th 2009 6:52PM
Rush is the one who told us how great Bush was doing.
By the way, the deficit belongs to W, no one else.
SolidStarMar 5th 2009 7:04PM
Yeah, get out of your hole and see the nearly 1 trillion dollar deficit Obama added in his first two months!
Get ready, America, for "change" in your pocket books, and trust me, it's not gonna be happy... Well, not for you, at least, but it will be for your socialist buddy Obama!

Rush to Dems..........kiss my azz.
Bob SiropMar 5th 2009 7:20PM

KennethMar 5th 2009 7:21PM
yea and guess why the Dems are trying to figure out how to fix the economy..b/c of the idiotic Bush who left the economy in horrible shape and left the US in 2 wars..
family firstMar 6th 2009 7:28AM
You got that right, and IMO should be charged for his corrupt act's and war crimes tha tmr. cheney and mr.bush did to our country...thankfully his era of disgrace is out !!

Bush's deficit spending is nothing compared to what has happened in just a few weeks. Most of which was totally unnecessary. This in not about Rush or Bush, this is about a complete takeover of all that we have taken for granted. Obama is punishing the very businesses (Cap and Trade) that we all are trying to get jobs from and hiding behind crisis to do it. Rush Limbaugh is always at least clear on where he stands. He is a private citizen with first amendment rights. We still have not heard one clear conviction from Obama? Why not listen to Rush and then listen to the mainstream media and then do some research to see for "yourself" what truth is? Don't liberals ever truly study the founding fathers and understand how and why this government set such strong limits on government? Socializing everything is not American!

Rush's popularity only proves that there are a lot of suckers out there who are desperate for someone else to do their thinking for them. Unfortunately, Rush's agenda is to line his already rich pockets at the expense of people like those who listen to them. Why do you think he's so afraid of the Obama budget, which makes people like him pay more so others don't have to pay as much. Don't be so stupid, America.

ITA. Hitler was popular too. popular does not equal good.
TimMar 5th 2009 9:13PM
Louisa, you are a MORON! The dem's are laughing all the way to the ballot box at Rush and his brain dead minions. If you had actually been following this farce, or managed to read and comprehend the article, you would have noticed that it is REPUBLICANS who are the ones afraid of Rush :-)
kpfeifMar 5th 2009 9:53PM
Why is it that the Obama Administration is using taxpayer money to go after a private citizen? The DNC created a website? Could it be that the Rush thing is to divert attention to the idiocy being pushed by the new Administration?
Obama is trying to out-stupid Carter...and he's doing a great job.

Coming to your neighborhood, misery, murder, genocide, death and decay. Look at history, the media and non-working types gushed over the great Russian socialist revolution, ignoring the murderous Stalin, even apologizing for the fact that he had to gain control by terror, just like Mao, who out did Stalin and the list goes on. You think you can't go down the same path? It could not happen here? Fools, you are a heartbeat away. You mindlessly repeat the same phrases over and over, like so many endless loop tape recorders, never once critically thinking about what you are saying. The rest of you, just remember that throught history, the good parished with the bad. This warning is not new, read Orwell's "Why I Write".

DEMS FEAR RUSH BECAUSE HE HITS THE TARGET DEAD ON.AND ITS HURTS THEM TO HEAR THE TRUTH.RUSH IS RIGHT!!!!!!

The deficit belongs to the dem congress. If you followed actual proceedings rather than the Communist News Network among other so called "news" stations, you would be well aware of that.
