Limbaugh calls Obama 'immature, inexperienced'
Source: Associated Press

WASHINGTON — From his home and on a friendly network, Rush Limbaugh lobbed pot shots across the airwaves Sunday at President Barack Obama — "immature, inexperienced, in over his head," offering the country "radical leadership" and laying siege to the economy.

"We'll let Mr. Limbaugh foment," responded the White House's chief political strategist, dismissing the conservative commentator with the reported $400 million contract ("I'm probably worth more," Limbaugh said) as no more than an entertainer and not really the right guy to give "lectures on humility."

The banter began on the hourlong "Fox News Sunday," Limbaugh the lone guest, interviewed from his home in Palm Beach, Fla., on a network the Obama administration has labeled as the voice of the far-right wing of the Republican Party. Obama adviser David Axelrod swung away later in the morning from Chicago on CBS' "Face the Nation."

One question in, Limbaugh said that his country had "never seen this kind of radical leadership at such a high level of power," that "I have to think" the administration is bent on destroying the private sector on purpose, amounting to "a denial of liberty, an attack on freedom."

4. Everything Limbaugh says sounds exactly like a right-wing hillbilly-heroin junky.
He is a distortion machine.

7. How long is that "inexperienced" card going to be played?
He's actually been president for 9 months now. That's 9 months longer than all 535 members of Congress and all 50 state governors.

Plus 4 years as a US Senator and 8 as a state senator.

I assure you that Obama will be infinitely more experienced than his opponent in 2012.

Limbaugh is NOT an entertainer. He is a partisan political operative.

14. I bet President Obama has never made fun of Michael J. Fox's Parkinson disease.
Unlike a certain anal cyst-ridden blowhard who comes to mind.

16. Limpballs should be arrested for sedition
One question in, Limbaugh said that his country had "never seen this kind of radical leadership at such a high level of power," that "I have to think" the administration is bent on destroying the private sector on purpose, amounting to "a denial of liberty, an attack on freedom."
========================================================
Sounds like sedition to me!

Did you notice that Rush won't hold the private sector responsible for their own mess.....that's right corporations are not responsible for bad business decisions!

39. Well, it's the republican way, isn't it?
Unfortunately, the democrats sometimes don't seem much different. We need a government that is of the people. Campaign finance reform is needed before we can have a a real impact for the betterment of all our citizens, not just the well-to-do.

18. this sort of vitrol was found back in JFK's day
but I really can't see how the corporate rightwing can be getting their money's worth by subsidizing this inept blowhard.

If they have enough disposable income to spend $400 million on this fascist nutball/unrepentent drug addict, then IMHO they are not paying enough taxes to the government in the first place.

19. Has Fux fallen so low that drugRush is all they can get
Bet they thought Limp would take Obama out with a great line today. I am guessing most people will look at FUX as pathetic and doing the Repugs bidding by putting on their leader.

What is that in the distance? The magical shrinking political party?

26. That's his job. That's what he does. Call people silly names.




I don't think he dares call anyone a hard core junkie pedophile though.

That one might come back and bite him on his pimple-festered pasty white ass. :rofl:

29. It's hard enough to avoid limpballs when he's on every radio station and on TV but now I can't even
read the posts here without having to hear what horseshit is pouring out of his mouth?

Sorry had to -1 you because I don't give a damn about limpballs and we'd all be better off if we didn't further promote his hatespeech.

42. I don't give a damn about murderers and child-rapists...
But I really like to know if any live in my neighborhood!

If you don't like the title of a thread, but you read it anyway, there is no good reason for a contribution telling us you don't like the topic. Sorry, Shagbark, I feel the same way about some topics, but I don't begrudge people that want to discuss them. I just don't participate. I don't feel the need to see that DU reflects only my ideas and interests. It's just a losing battle, and it gets a bit annoying. Please don't take this personally!
