“You can’t listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done.” – Pres. Barack Obama
At first, I was happy to hear Obama make this comment during a discussion with the congressional GOP leaders. He was making the point that we need to work on common goals and not focus on our differences. This may also have been a calculated statement in response to Limbaugh stating explicitly and clearly yesterday that he hopes Obama fails.
But then I realized that mentioning Rush Limbaugh by name will just draw more attention to the narcissistic ultra-right wing talk show host. Limbaugh is widely regarded as an over-rated blow-hard who makes his living inciting right-wing nut jobs to hoot and holler at their radios. It is surprising to me that anyone still takes him seriously. His unpatriotic vitriol is probably best ignored.
