March 17, 2008 3:27 pm ET

SUMMARY: On his radio program, Rush Limbaugh quoted from a Judicial Watch blog entry that falsely claimed an "electronic mail[]" allegedly from the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) said that "associates of FARC were scheduling a sit down with" Sen. Barack Obama "to lobby him." Limbaugh also read aloud a portion of the blog entry that misattributed a quote from right-wing news website WorldNetDaily to "evidence seized" from FARC, thereby falsely suggesting that a FARC spokesman said the group "see[s] 'more help coming next year if Barack Obama becomes president.'
