Media Matters: Rush is pushing the "shakedown" theme
The audio like something from Bizarro World:

Limbaugh: Obama taught students "how to use the Constitution to shakedown corporations ... much like he's doing to BP"

June 17, 2010 1:23 pm ET

From the June 17 edition of Premiere Radio Network's The Rush Limbaugh Show

2. This is a real loser for DraftDodger Limbaugh and the RepuliCorporatists
Edited on Fri Jun-18-10 07:07 AM by SpiralHawk
Push, push, push, you pill-popping, draft-dodging, RepubliCorporate Payola Propaganda Pimp. Rush the War-mongering Draft-Dodger must be getting eXtra fatcat corporate payola cashmoneybucks to spout this FAIL strategery. It may appeal to Republicon Homelanders on the Oil Tit, but it has ZeRo appeal for the citizens of the United States of America.

5. Well what do you know; it appears rush was wrong...again!
Maybe enough of these instances might convince rethugs not to listen to him. Maybe not, too.

:D

9. Hopefully Tweety will ask the ReTHUGS if they
disagree with Rush on this one.

7. Along with telling kids to dumpster dive for food
that fat ass slob should have to dumpster dive for food. Every time I hear him I get sick to my stomach. And every time I see someone that associates with him makes me equally ill. Of all the people on this earth he and Coulter are two who take up space that real Americans could use.

8. Rush is just a puppet, not really a good target for your displeasure.

10. More like the puppet master - just look at what happens to any
politician that dares to disagree with him publicly!

14. Sort of like that saying "guns don't kill, people do"
Rush is like a bazooka. He doesn't pull the trigger but he sure causes the damage. Saying Rush shouldn't be the target is like saying the bazooka should not be destroyed, but only the one pulling the trigger...If the bazooka is still around someone else can come along and pull the trigger.

12. AND you know even if it is a "shakedown" most people believe that they
need to be hung and quartered.. getting money out of them is something we'll have to live with.

13. Rush must have gotten his scrip filled again...
Or wrote himself a new one.

15. Au contraire, Fat One. He is merely exercising his 'unitary executive' power, a la John Yoo.
