(Update) Limbaugh fires back at Steele

[sabra]

Source: CNN

(CNN) – Talk radio host Rush Limbaugh fired back at Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele Monday, suggesting on his radio show the GOP leader appears to be supporting President Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

"Why do you claim to lead the Republican Party when you seem obsessed with seeing to it President Obama succeeds?" Limbaugh addressed Steele.

"I frankly am stunned that the chairman of the Republican National Committee endorses such an agenda. I have to conclude that he does because he attacks me for wanting it to fail," said Limbaugh.

...

"Michael Steele has been around long enough to know that the liberal media will use him by twisting what I say or what others say," he said. "He took the bait, he bit down hard on the bait, he launched an attack on me, even though the premise of what was said to him was false."

It's all about you, you fat fucking opoid filter.

[BlueIdaho]

2. Oh this is a beautiful thing... nt.

[ReliantJ]

3. Is this serious?

[safeinOhio]

4. Stay tuned for more Family Feud.

[rrneck]

16. Where the hell is

Jerry Springer when you need him.

I can see it now - "Another incestuous marriage gone bad".

[bdamomma]

5. they are eating their own. let us just sit back and grin.

:popcorn:

[Windy]

6. Just stunning. That blowhard is so full of himself. Can't he just go away?????? n/t

[Mrs. Overall]

10. No, we want him to stay. What's playing out is absolutely delightful for the GOP...they deserve it..

[Jawja]

53. Yep.

They used Limbaugh when they went marching into Washington behind Gingrich in 1994.

Now, they are stuck with him.

[MannyGoldstein]

7. "The Donovan McNabb Of The RNC"

It's only a matter of time before OxyRush yammers something like this. Dear God, let it happen!

[BOSSHOG]

12. "The liberal media wants a black rnc chairman to succeed"

Maybe the two of them could take a bottle of viagra down to the dominican republic and make up.

It must really suck for conservatives with values to know their political party is led by a cowardly, poorly educated, thriced divorced, drug addicted pedophile who has no social life, no friends and has never done anything positive for our country. On the other hand knowing the conservatives I know I'm sure they are fine with it.

[Turbineguy]

8. May I....

hold your coats?

I wouldn't want them to get wrinkled.

[Tx4obama]

9. It is wonderful...

to see the republican party imploding and all the heads exploding.

[Jamastiene]

31. Welcome to DU

:hi:

[Tx4obama]

60. Thanks Jamastiene

I've been reading ya'll for several months and thought it was about time to join the club ;)

heeee heh heh, ahh shit this is funny. :)

[groundloop]

13. Is Rush doing oxy again?

There's gotta be some reason he's so delusional.

[Dr.Phool]

22. Worse. Sounds like PCP or meth.

[The Wizard]

38. His head size says steroids

If this wasn't so entertaining it would be time for Rush to take the Herman Goering exit strategy.

[murielm99]

62. It might be more fun to see him take a Herr Hess exit.

Can't you imagine that fat fool parachuting down somewhere? Where should he go?

[The Wizard]

64. I see Rash

parachuting into a volcano or federal prison.

[bdamomma]

63. the man certainly has issues, low self esteem and just a jerk

did you by any chance catch Janeane Garofalo on Keith about a week ago, she pretty well summed it up good about Rush.

[xiamiam]

14. hes gonna go down with this...unbridled ego about to take over...grap the popcorn..nt

only thing that made me laugh out loud so far today...i dont even pay attention to that blowhard..cant even stand to see a photo of him...the writing is on the wall with this...mister eloquence is about to insert his entire body into his mouth..

[SpiralHawk]

24. Gigadittoes, xiamiam. Rush is going down...

...maybe not with this particular pissing contest, but all those in the past, and all those that seem entirely likely to be part of Draft Dodger Limbaugh's Drug Suffused MELT DOWN. A true republicon homelander to the shameful end, calling over the corporate-owned airwaves for America to FAIL. Ptooey.

[Dr.Phool]

15. If Obama fails,

All of Rush's fan base will be thrown out of their trailer parks, and won't be able to afford batteries to listen to him on their transistor radio.

[radfringe]

17. when elephants attack....

[benld74]

18. Far Right - Cat fight!

[AlbertCat]

19. when you seem obsessed with seeing to it President Obama succeeds

Them colored folks always stick together, don't they Rush? :eyes:

[pacalo]

20. The Democratic congress should throw this statement at the 'thugs as often as possible

each time they vote "no".

On his nationwide radio program, Rush Limbaugh addressed the RNC chairman: "...you seem obsessed with seeing to it President Obama succeeds"

[hadrons]

21. Rush is just giving want his audience wants, so the crazies must be unhinging

[DebbieCDC]

23. Please let them keep picnic-ing on each other until they pick each other's bones clean

The more they keep this up the more irrelevant, shrill and hostile they become. HOPEFULLY more people will have eyes open the longer this goes on.

[HopeHoops]

25. The GOP morons love to eat each other alive - fun show!

:popcorn:

[rocktivity]

26. Oh it's on--SLAPFIGHT! SLAPFIGHT!

But seriously, Rush, what you're overlooking is that if Obama's POLICIES fail, AMERICA fails. But you can be against Obama's policies without being for America failing--Trent Lott told me so!

:headbang:
rocktivity

[wilt the stilt]

27. Steele doesn't realize

that Limbaugh will never have an African American as the boss of the RNC. Rush believes that Steele has two roles- shoeshine boy and janitor.

[Jamastiene]

28. Hmm, this looks entertaining.

:popcorn:

[arikara]

30. Drug addled obnoxious buffoon

is believing the corporate *media* spin that he's the leader of the republican party and flexing his... well not muscles... fat? What a hilarious doughhead.

[maxrandb]

32. I wonder how long it will be

before Rush is visited by Luca Brazi?

Seriously, this could be the END OF RUSH!!!

You know that there are some shady characters in the RNC that have pictures, evidence, or something on Rush that will remove this shit-stain from our national political scene.

[get the red out]

35. Oh THAT would be fun!

I would have to take off work to watch that develop in the news cycle.

[Lautremont]

33. Thankfully the battle was caught on film:

[AlbertCat]

55. That was beautiful!

[beac]

34. With apologies to Stevie and Sir Paul:

Ebony and Ivory duke it out for control of the GOP,
Side v. side, wash the party overboard, oh lord, as we watch with glee!

We all know these wingnuts are doomed no matter how hard they blow,
They're as good as dead, the end's begun
They kill to live, they yearn to shiv each other
They will never survive, eating each other alive.

Ebony and Ivory fade together into irrelevancy,
Side by side they sink thru the floorboard, oh lord, pass the popcorn to me!

[Overseas]

36. Yeah, Rush, just where did Steele get that "Country First" stuff anyway?

Better send Steele back to the Gingrich Republican Re-education Camp for some special training on Limbaugh Loving.

[AlinPA]

37. Steele will resign. It's over for him. Limbaugh has shut him down.

[antimatter98]

39. We need to find a 3rd world country for these two to run---oh, it's the U.S. ;( n/t

[Roy]

40. REPUBS ALWAYS SPOUTING DEMS FOLLOWING UNIONS...

Well, looks like it's time to talk about who the repubs are working for?

You say you are not beholden to Limbaugh... then let's hear you say it in PUBLIC!

Otherwise, you are a Limbaugh puppet.

DENY IT!!!!!! DENY IT!!!!!!!

[truthisfreedom]

41. rush wants America to fail. His hope is for a failed economy. But he refuses to acknowledge that

it's his party that's behind the failure in the first place.

[Kittycat]

42. I love it when they eat their own

:rofl:

[damntexdem]

43. Firing back? Hmm, it's 'Guns, Germs, and Steele.'

And the two germs are the ones firing at each other.

[Roy]

44. This paranoid tub does not speak without heavy...

emphasis on "I", "me", and "my"

Never we, us, our, or anything hinting that he thinks beyond his own self importance.

But, to heck with it!!!!

I'M WITH YA RUSH MAKE'EM ALL KNEEL!!!

[jb5150]

45. This is getting very interesting

as well as entertaining....

[OwnedByFerrets]

46. Keep on Yakking it up stupid.

And yes, daddy always told me not to use that word, but I believe its justified in this case.

[scytherius]

47. Oh this is just flat out AWESOME!!! n/t

nt

[skeewee08]

48. Get your POPCORN READY:-)

[Jefferson23]

49. This is hilarious, I thought Rush would wait at least until tomorrow

to fire back at Steele, lol. Keep it up boys, this is priceless self induced political slaughtering.

[No Elephants]

50. Rush, just keep telling an America brought to its knees by deregulation, poor regulation, and

trickle down economics that you want the Obama stimulus to fail. Say it loud. Say it proud. Early and often. Drill it into America.

Oh yeah, and don't let Mikie open his big mouth. Cut him down at every syllable he tries to utter.




Pssst. Mike. Don't let that loudmouthed lout get away with a THING. Every time he tries to open his mouth, you show him who's boss. Bad enough he makes so much more than you do. Don't let him claim your title, too. Go at him!

[acmavm]

51. Good. The administration and KO and RM and all dems need to just

stay on their asses, make them screw up even more.

These two guys are like a couple of 12-year old girls who like the same boy. Well, these two want the same job.

It's gonna be good.

[Gamey]

52. EIB = Extreme Idiot Bloviating

[gordianot]

54. Can you imagine what this swollen egomaniac will say next week?

Pig-boy needs to run for office. He needs to make this official.

[proud2BlibKansan]

56. GOP implosion!!

I love it.

[stanwyck]

57. You have to wonder if behind closed doors, the

GOP leaders and their friends in the corporate world are trying to figure out how to get rid of Rush. As he finds a way, every day, (just like Paris Hilton or Britney Spears) to stay in the spotlight, won't his personal obsessions make his fall that much more deadly for the GOP? What if his inevitable disgrace is nicely timed right before the 2010 mid-terms? You know it's coming. They know it's coming. The GOP dalliances with interns, pages, call girls, and men in the next stall will be minor compared to Rush's descent.
Only Rush thinks he's bullet-proof. Rush is not a sound person, in body or mind. He has serious health and mental problems. And his sex life wouldn't be an issue if it weren't for the hypocrisy issue - which is always a sure-fire five alarm fire with Americans. The rightwing made him. Now they have to destroy him. FrankenRush, the monster. Will they stop him before he tramples what is left of the GOP?

[rocktivity]

58. Couldn't you call him "Rushenstien" instead?

For Al's sake, I mean?

:headbang:
rocktivity

[stanwyck]

59. Good idea. Rushenstien it is. n/t
