      I'm shocked. I can't believe an electric car has enough power to carry Limbaugh at a reasonable speed.

      Did he actually say that, "no one would believe this car is electric?!?"

      I so want that as a ring tone.

      As much as I dislike Rushbo, that was pretty funny. He's still a cretin though.

      I actually saw this on Leno, and I must admit as much as I dislike Rush and like Gore I was LMAO when he backed up. It might even have been the funniest part of the whole show.

      I actually thought it was kind of funny watching Rush not take himself seriously for once, especially since everyone else whos raced that course has been uber serious about it.

      And I chuckled too when at the end Leno got Rush to admit he actually likes electric cars now.

        I'd like to see a little bit where we use Lawnbutt to resurface the freeways...

        It's be a hoot!

        Rush did stay consistent by saying that getting the worst time ever was exactly what he wanted to do. Rush is failure.

        I saw this bit the first night, I think it was Drew Barrymore, and he wasn't going to be close to her time even before his road rage.His driving, like his ideology, is firmly in little old lady territory.

          This could also be used as a PSA warning people not to drive if they're on drugs.

      Well, I have seen the video and I am not surprised that Rush Limbaugh would run into Al Gore. I probably would have been surprised if he did not run into Al Gore. Rush does not merely look as fat as he does in some of the video clips that I have seen of him at his microphone. However, having Al Gore check out an electric car seems like an oxymoron, where the two juxtaposed phrases are Limbaugh and environmental concern.

      My, what a compelling, well thought out argument against Al Gore.

      Maybe he should run over cardboard cut-outs of the nobel committee too.

        By all means.

        Running over a cut-out is totally therapeutic and should be done every now and then, as long as it doesn't get into running over live people.

        Hell, I would run over a cardboard cut-out of MYSELF.

      When the ping-pong balls came out, I thought they were shooting Oxycontin at him.

      I'll await-most likely forever-for Al Gore to run over a Limbaugh cutout on a future Leno show, and then watching the subsequent unhinged wingnut fits afterwards.

      Was Rush actually praising an electric car? My god, get these people out of their comfortable radio and tv studios and expose them to the outside world and within a short time they start admitting reality and the fact that the truth does have a liberal bias.

      THANK YOU.
