Rush repeats show mantra: “The objective is to stop liberalism wherever it is”

By Oliver Willis

Today, Limbaugh followed other conservatives by attempting to draw parallels between Greece's current economic problems and the ones in the U.S. After calling Greek protesters “leeches” and “jackasses,” Limbaugh said that Obama had the audacity to discuss debt with Germany and Spain because Obama, Limbaugh falsely claimed, had tripled America's debt. He went on to say that the Greek problem was liberalism and socialism, and that Obama was the “architect” of the worst debt crisis in U.S. history.

Discussing today's White House visit by Afghanistan president Hamid Karzai, Limbaugh said that Obama might bow to him, and that “Nurse Ratched” (an apparent allusion to Sec. Clinton) had antagonized Karzai with recent rhetoric. Limbaugh went on to call President Obama an “immature childish manchild” trying to “get out” of Afghanistan without victory.

On the new health care law, Limbaugh claimed that opposition was “growing” and told listeners “do not think repeal is out of the question.” He said that the Obama administration was governing against the will of the people, and that in order to repeal the law that conservatives would have to take the presidency.

Rush continued his attacks on Elena Kagan by playing a parody skit that called her a “Chaz Bono lookalike.” He also called her a “budding communist” in line with communist dicators like Hugo Chavez, and someone who thought free speech should be regulated. He said the reason Kagan and Justice Sotomayor had been nominated was to act as rubber stamps for the Obama administration.

And in case the content of his show every day didn't make it clear enough, Limbaugh explained, “The objective is to stop liberalism wherever it is.”
