Limbaugh Congratulates Himself On Kennedy Death Prediction
Rush Limbaugh offered himself some kudos Wednesday for predicting in March that the health care bill wouldn't be passed before Ted Kennedy's death.

"Before it's all over, it'll be called the Ted Kennedy Memorial Health Care Bill," Limbaugh said at the time.

Indeed, with Kennedy's passing, Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) has called for health care reform legislation to be named in his honor.

Limbaugh, who was criticized for his insensitivity over the Kennedy remarks, is expressing vindication. "I predicted it, and I caught all kinds of grief for it out there," he said.

2. Unable to achieve physical smallness, Rush resorts to smallness of character.
With great success.

6. "Ted Kennedy Memorial Health Care Bill" has a nice ring to it...
Now, let's get it passed, if for no other reason, to piss off Limbaugh and his followers.

8. Okay.
So he predicted the death of a man suffering from brain cancer. Wow, that was downright prophetic. Then he predicted that they would name the health care bill after Sen. Kennedy, after Kennedy has spent 40 years trying to get health care legislation passed. As my nephew would say, "Thank you, Captain Obvious!"

15. Rush's ego has to make it about HIM
like Sarah Palin, he is a narcissist who thinks the world revolves around him.
