On Hardball, Todd covers how Limbaugh "is spinning" Jackson's death

... and what of the over 4000 men & women in uniform who died under Bush?

From Wikipedia:

"You Are Not Alone" was the second single released from HIStory; it holds the Guinness World Record for the first song ever to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

This happened in 1995, by the way. Maybe that doesn't qualify as a "success" by Limpdog standards. Jackson also had his most successful world tour in 1996.

What is Rush's point. I guess he is talking about the symbolic death of prosperity he believes is going on under Obama, and that is represented by Jackson's flourish in the 1980's to his death under Obama? Well I can say this, what about all the celebrities that died in the 1980's? What does that represent?

Also, why is it that government supposedly sucks and can do nothing. Conservatives believe that no President can determine your life, but Reagan was capable of creating the circumstances that made Jackson succeed. Not Jackson's talent, because that success was taken away under Clinton and Bush.

Rush is going insane and I wonder if he realizes just how stupid he sounds.

On an OT - I dunno if Chuck Todd is best at being an anchor

Interestingly, Rush's success follows a similar trajectory. His real success was under Clinton, and it's been downhill ever since.

Decades from now people will remember exactly where they were when Limbaugh made the dumbest argument in the history of politics.

I don't understand why this quote from Rush is getting such huge attention. I mean it isn't like its unusual that he makes absurd outlandish statements that are only beliveable by the brainless cult that listens to his show. But then again I am a regular listener to the "Rush Limbaugh Lie of the Day" so I suppose I don't have much room to criticize.
