      What a dilemma. I know Rush would love it if someone murdered the president, but for the reference to be intentional, that requires me to believe he reads.

        I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he stole it from someone smarter tha him (like George Will maybe?) who said it to him at one point, but had better sense than to actually put it in print.

        I'm sure he can read, but I don't see him getting to cozy with Shakespeare.

      Rush just can't help patting himself on the back.

      Only in America can someone like Rush say such stupid things and get paid so much for doing it.

      In order for this to be an analogy, it would require the death of our president on the steps of the Senate . . . seriously, folks, why is the Secret Service not all over this jerk?

        Does Rush Limbaugh have a statue of Julius Caesar in his fabulous Manhattan apartment?

      This clip, like most I've noticed is taken so out of context it doesn't even make sense. Rush is talking about the far left being promised by Pelosi that "changes" will occur AFTER they vote FOR IT. He is speaking about the DOUBLE CROSSING by their own party. Instead of this stalin-like commentary on media, check out facts for yourselves. What sense does it make that he'd even say that about Obama when clearly it is CONGRESS getting the intimidation and coercion to pass this nation-killing legislation?

      But this is a double-cross. There's no question you're being double-crossed, and I'm going to address you. It won't take very long, but I know how much you Democrats in the House really want this. I know how much you don't like the Senate bill. I also know how you're being lied to that the Senate bill's going to be modified down the road. It ain't going to happen in reconciliation. Folks, it can't happen in reconciliation. There's not enough time for the CBO to score things and the CBO has to be involved if there's reconciliation. So there will not be reconciliation. You're being lied to about that. I can tell you right now, there will not be reconciliation. Obama's going to sign it and once he signs it he's going to drop it. - RUSH IN CONTEXT.
