Why Is Rush Limbaugh Pimping Hillary?
The highly visible wartime vacation (Obama allowed himself to be photographed on a putting green Saturday with NBA star Ray Allen and retired pro-football player Ahmad Rashad) was not looking any better Monday as Iraq’s political crisis worsened, NATO’s chief declared a “high probability” of Russian military intervention in Ukraine and Gaza remained on a knife edge.
Hillary added, “Great nations need organizing principles — and “Don’t do stupid stuff” is not an organizing principle.”
So it begins. The Democratic party, like the Tea Party and the establishment GOP, is putting up a very un-unified front. Rush only seas blood in the water and wants to do to the Democrats exactly what his crazy party is doing by primarying candidates with insane Teapartiers. But Democrats should be united in what the President is attempting to do in Iraq. According to a Kurdish website, President Obama is literally two airstrikes away from crippling ISIL. ISIL is the result of Bush’s Pottery Barn acquisition of Iraq: you broke it, you bought it. So Hillary criticizing Obama leads Limbaugh to believe he can help fracture the Democrats with statements like this:
I think that NBC News and the Washington Post, and I think a lot of Drive-By Media, have calculated that the midterm elections are already doomed for the Democrats, including the Senate. I think that they have concluded as well that Obama is basically over, that he can’t rebound from this. It’s too deep; it’s too entangled. Nothing has gone right, and it’s impossible for a second term president who’s not even engaged…St. Louis is on fire. Iraq is on fire. The Middle East. The world is on fire! And Obama is playing golf and took Susan Rice with him to make sure she can stay informed so as to brief him at the 19th Hole when he gets off the golf course. Now, as well as all of that is happening, Obama’s policies continue to explode. That could damage Hillary or any other Democrat running in 2016.
The foreign policy successes of the Obama administration (like ridding Assad of chemical weapons, or liberating Libya from Khaddafi) are quickly overlooked the second any volatility occurs in typically volatile regions. Let’s try not to allow Rush Limbaugh or any other right-wing nut to steer the ship of the 2014 midterms.

All these beltway insiders, (that includes Limbaugh) talking to other beltway insiders about trivial beltway insider pablum….
(That is also the problem with Meet the Press and the other Sunday shows).
This is why the younger people don’t watch any of, while many are really well informed.
They simply don’t care about what Rush Limbaugh though about what Dana Milbank said about what Chuck Todd thought about what Peggy Noonan, Our Lady of the Magic Dolphins, (Charlie Pierce) said.
“Drive-By Media”????
What’s that?
I always thought that was right wing am talk radio???

make no mistake about it Rush will always pimp anyone who opposes Obama and supports more military action in the middle east. If you think the gop isn’t getting into Hillary’s head ? maybe your part of the problem

IMO, Hillary begins to look/sound less and less appealing as 2016 looms closer. Hmmmm.

I agree and she’s becoming nebulous with her stance on issues. I know it’s politics, but still. HuffPo has a good article pointing out a double standard by her. If this is a harbinger of what she’s going to be about as a presidential candidate, I’ll be very hard pressed to vote for her vote for her, if at all.

Hillary seems to be too easily swayed by the GOP, much like Bill. I’m afraid once she’s president, they will manipulate her into doing evil things in the name of “national security”. I didn’t vote for her when she ran last time because, in an attempt to appear strong on terror, she voted with the republicans (and some spineless democrats) to invade Iraq. Didn’t work out too well for her.

“Democrats should be united in what the President is attempting to do in Iraq” And there is the money shot.
