Previously:

Limbaugh: “I keep track of which dictator is nationalizing more industries - Barack Obama or Hugo Chavez”

Limbaugh on Chavez closing radio stations: “Obama's looking at that, saying 'damn, someday ...' ”

Limbaugh: Hugo Chavez “is a thug, but unlike Mr. Obama, he's a patriotic thug”

Limbaugh: “If I didn't know better, I would say that Hugo Chavez is actually running this country”

Limbaugh refers to Obama's “soul shake” -- that “black handshake ... that he had with Chavez”
