Persoanl to Robsatease:

And the non-partisan organizations that rate pundits on TV, radio and in print list Limbaugh last when it comes to the percent of the time he is trutful and factually accurate – 14%!!! That's down from 17% the last time he was audited two years ago!

And now that Rush is "coming clean" on everything, when can we expect an explanation on the oxycontin shenanigans and the trips with "the boys" to the Dominican Republic?!

And, in a further personal to "italianmomma":

Do you kiss your children with that mouth?!

She's just 4th in line to the presidency. There's nothing she wouldn't do. Those ahead of her better watch their backs.

For those who think that the incumbent is the automatic nominee, that's not correct.
Generally, there is no strong primary challenge to an incumbent, but it is possible to challenge the incumbent in a primary. It's not the smartest political move, since a strong primary fight with an incumbent would divide a party. It would only be done if the incumbent's first term were disastrous. Besides, hedging his bets is not something Obama has really done. He wouldn't be worried four years from now. He's more confident than that. He doesn't want "yes" people around him. That accomplishes nothing with regards to advising him. Especially in the area of foreign policy, where he is insightful and intuitive, but inexperienced, he needs dissenting views around him for the purposes of education. You don't learn anything if all your advisors agree with you. As for the poeple saying we shouldn't "hate" Rush Limbaugh, he is the ultimate spewer of hate. His whole purpose is to entertain an audience so that he can stuff his wallet with money, and unfortunately, his method of entertainment is to divide the country by attacking anyone who can clearly see that Bush and his cronies are power hungry goons.
Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Ann Coulter, and all the other right wing pundits are show hosts don't do what they do because they believe in it. They do it to make money. Plain and simple. "Don't give in to hate. That leads to the dark side."

Obama appears to be bringing Americans together, as evidenced by the bi-partisan approval of his actions so far. He may even be affecting those on the extreme right and left. Fostering national unity is the most important task for the next president…

Rush Mr. Rush to the White House. He needs a good dog bite.

I can't believe people actually believe what this idiot says. It's really sad that he has so many followers. He gets paid 30 million a year to spew his nonsense. Hillary and Baracks political philosophies are very similar. It only makes sense that she should be part of his cabinet.

No offense to Mr Limbaugh but I'll rather listen to Gov Palin than ANY other conservative out there. At least Gov Palin actually cares…it might take time but she does. And she's trying to ante up the party! Plus, Conservatives have more problems than they ever realize and here comes Gov Palin who made it all better just by being V.P…by the way, does it look like I'm happy? LOL!! She made it more difficult or let alone complex for the party and now they don't even know where to start. I hate to say but their stupid and idiots!! Warned them til this day and I don't mind picking on them because the timing is just right…plus, I'll rather do the GOP bogus than the Cubs that';s for sure, LOL!! You know that's personal, LOL!!

Who cares what he thinks. I only want to hear when he loses his voice, permanently.

Who cares what this ultracnservative believes n Obama picks…..

20 million morons Adam, 20 million morons.

Lets hear your take on Operation Chaos. How was that helping America?

If President-elect Obama decides to go with Hillary for his SOS, we should give him a chance to prove he is right. We elected him, didn't we?

Rush Limbaugh.

Oh yeah, he's the steak salesman who said we should send drug offenders up the river.

How'd he get out of going to jail for breaking federal narcotics laws again?

To all those here who decry the "hateful liberals" who are bashing Rush. Normally I would agree with you, but this is Rush Limbaugh. Ad hominem vile overbearing hateful attacks are his stock in trade. He is the one person whom I feel it is ok to bash. He is hateful and hurtful on every level. He is not conservative, nor does he care about truth (even slightly). Remember, this is the man who claimed that he would air a tape of Michelle Obama making a racist rant. It proved to be a lie like most of Limbaugh's other statements. The man is truly a pile of waste.

THIS IS FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA'S CABINET: IF YOU REMEMBER WHEN BILL CLINTON CAME INTO OFFICE, HE HAD TO CLEAN UP BUSH'S MESS AND IT TOOK HIM 8 YEARS, NOW IT WILL ONLY TAKE OBAMA 4 YEARS TO CLEAN THIS BUSH'S MESS!! THINK ABOUT THAT!

Like the fairness you show by not printing my previous comment. Keeping it real CNN, let's not show the common sense from the right.

Limbaugh, Hannity, Dr. Laura, and the like are the BIGGEST reason for the Fairness Doctrine to be enacted, something that trust me they do NOT want to happen. As long as they can spew their divisiveness on the airways without much oposition, they can continue to rule the airways and take advantage of the folks with the lower IQ's that can't think for themselves. Hopefully during the Obama years to come the far right will lose this gripe as the country starts to open it's eyes and move closer to the center away from the far right neocons and the left wing bloggers. At that point the sponsers will drop off, the radio stations will fill those slots with music and the "kinder, gentler Amercia" that Bush #1 proposed may become a reality.

The old white rich male vote is approaching the endangered species list. So long Rush, the truth is your views are now in the minority, and our bandwagon won't board an old leopard who can't change his liver spots!!!!

Let's see. Hillary Clinton, whose husband's dealings with the moslem world have gained him an enormous fortune is expected to place the interests of the United States above those of the islamic nations that hate us and have vowed to make us a part of a world wide islamic calaphate.

And Barack Obama, whose father is a moslem and therefore considered by moslems to be a moslem (children's religious affiliation is determined by their fathers according to islamic reckoning) is expected to be the commander-in-chief of the United States and place the interests of our country above those of our enemies.

Somehow, I doubt we will see either of these two exercise the power of their offices in the interest of the United States. Mrs. Clinton will, as the Clintons always do, place self-interest above all else and Mr. Obama will, as the resident moslem in the White House, maneuver the calaphate closer than we ever dreamed.

She is schemer. And he is a Trojan Horse. And we are screwed.

If Limbaugh was irrelevant, he wouldn’t incite all of this criticism. Playing defense already?

Rush, congrats cuz you got it close to true on this one. No need to always criticize his stuff!

This is a strange article, as it does not seem to be self aware enough to realize that Rush's compliment is a backhanded one, meant to imply political gamesmanship is taking priority over whats best for the country. The headline should read, Limbaugh Skeptical of Obama's Pick. A headline which neither surprising nor particularly news worthy.

RUSH ROCKS

I agree with most of these posts. Who give a crap what he says.

Limbaugh is an absolute doofus. When was the last time a sitting, popularly-electd president lost a nomination? Clinton was out in 2012 anyway. Limbaugh wouldn't know brilliant if it climbed out of one of his bottles of prescription painkillers. The pick was smart because it is about PUDS (Party Unity – Darn Straight). It doesn't hurt that Clinton is excellent for the job either.

To "NOBAMA" If Obama is a coke-head then you are president of the United States!!!…Get it?? (I doubt it.)

Who cares…..pop a pill, Rush.

Why must libs resort to name calling? Who are the hate mongers?

Ah–Rush–as in "to judgment". The man who deified Reagan–but who never actually voted for him because he was uninvolved politically when it did not serve his navel-gazing purposes. The archetypal hypocrite. Die Rush die the most painful political death that media can provide–by ignoring your profound rotund stupidity.

What sad specimens of humanhood that find such joy in calling another person such horrible names. I hope you feel very "special."

Does anybody really pay any attention at all to what this pill-popping windbag has to say about anything? I'd say his relevancy wore out about 10 years ago. The only people that still listen to what this joker has to say are the right-wing militant nut-jobs, and that's exactly who he plays to. He and Sarah Palin could easily be the "new Republican party's" 2012 ticket.

Ria, what would make you say this man is kind? Has he given you candy to get in the car with him? Year in, year out I have listened to this man spew the vilest Hate! Sin? Jesus would drive him out with a whip.

I was critical of Obama during his run and I voted for McCain…and I'd do it again. That said, so far I like what I hear from Obama and I hope his actions will follow. We're long past the point where we can/should be bickering at each other. Obama recognizes (as hopefully the rest of you Dems do) that almost half the country did NOT vote for Obama, including a sizable percentage of Americans who stayed home. The election is over; the process we use for choosing a President is past, and it's time to move forward together.

I'm not going to be happy about much of what Obama does, but I'm going to support him as best I can, without malice. This is what we HAVE to do…all of us…from here on out. The problems we're dealing with did NOT all come from the last administration, but have been a function of the last 20-30 years, and we need to take a long term view to make things right again. Together.

So the self-appointed voice of the Right is now weighing in on the choices of Barack Obama; as if the President-Elect could care less what this over inflated couch potato says. Chuck Hagel; who has twice the intestinal fortitude Limbaugh ever dreamed of possessing; said it best when he pointed out that good olde Rush doesn`t have the guts to actually run for office. Yet he presumes to believe that all that transpires in Washington cannot proceed until with baited breath we hear from the great Limbaugh. What a sad pathetic joke!!

One more thing..those of you talking about Obama not bringing change by picking experienced people for his administration..does it make sense when you say that out loud? The first big change is that hes picking intellectuals– thats more than our current President can say. Second, its about his IDEAS AND PLANS that are the change. Not the faces. Remember HE is in charge.

She had no plans of running in '12. He'll keep the seat warm for 8 years and she'll run in '16.

It is interesting the hate comments against Limbaugh. Liberals spend a lot of time spewing their "none judgemental" agenda. But God forbid, yes God, someone not agree with them the spewing becomes gnashing of teeth and they begin foaming at the mouth. Instead of spending time condemning a man who more than likely is living a life 10 times more successful than anyone on this blog, why don't you people get out of your house and look up at the stars and try to find a true purpose for your life. I hate to be the party pooper, but it probably doesn't matter who Mr. Obama makes SOS. CHANGE is never going to happen in America because it is easier to HATE (as evident on this blog) than it is to be NICE to those who do not agree with you. You people have way to much NEGATIVE energy. Go and be nice to someone tomorrow and then us conservatives might want to be like you.

Mike posted: " ill be so glad when this country is rocked to it.s very foundation and then you left wing idiots beg for people like myself to defend you that will surely be the day i lay down my arms and say they are not my sisters and brothers do with them as you please."

Mike, if you really will be glad when this country is rocked to it's very foundation, then I do not want you defending us now. There is something very wrong with your philosophy and your patriotism. This country is defended by Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and apolitical people of all backgrounds, genders and races.

For those of you who say he is irrelevant:
He has a weekly audience of 20 million people

For those of you who pull the drug-addict card:
Review the case. Yes he made a mistake. However, he only starting taking the pills to deal with real medical issues. He never intended to use OxyContin recreationally, he meant to use it for a real purpose. He had an addiction, we know, but it was not as if he was living a pain free life. If anyone questions this, look it up.

When Rush or Rove start commending Obama, it means the Republican party is near extinction.

There are 179 comments to this Rush article. Remove the grade school recess flippant blogs and one can see the strong testimonials for Rush, pro and con. Thanks to those well meaning writers.

Pop a couple of more pills, Rush.

Divorce another wife or two.

Maybe you can run for office for your perverted
followers, the supposed conservative right.

What a crock you are, Rush. Go to Hell, if
you know where to find it.

I actually posted several positive comments about this story and about Rush. Did you really think they would ever appear? Typical liberals. The difference between a liberal and a communist? A communist knows what he is doing!

We worship the ground you walk on oh great one,we follow you because we are either rich, or totally insane,or both, and you will make sure we stay that way.Operation Chaos was a total success.We smeared the enemy,lied and slandered and filled our neocon friends with hope.

Once again Rush rules! I love watching these ignorant liberals trying to lampoon Rush Limbaugh. They hate his success and they really don't know his views. They don't listen to his show but the do imagine what he has to say. His real specialty is Freedom of Speach, something liberals distain. Rush won't let them rewrite history or allow foolish things to go unanswered. When things get really bad Rush Limbaugh will issue that call to arms, not unlike that of Patrick Henry. He is a true patriot.

Rush uses hate as a method. That doesn't give him truth, it just makes him popular. I like HRC, but he doesn't change my opinion on that.

"Hillary – I feel really bad about the whole primary thing. I apologize for being nominated as the Democratic candidate. Oh, and I'm real sorry about not picking you as VP. A lot of people are upset about that, huh? Let's see…ummmm…here's something! Secretary of State. How does that sound? Will you forgive me? Are we friends? Cool. I think your husband is really neat by the way."

Ever notice how someone who points out the BRILLIANCE of something is really just trying to have their own intelligence recognized?

Hey NOBAMA -

FYI – we've had a "coke head" for prez for the last eight years…

Grow up people!
The man makes a point, that you all obviosly did not hear to begine with, and some one posts it and all you can do is call him names.

Bill in CA – turn on your spellcheck!

To all you Rush haters – he's just someone who speaks the truth and makes millions doing it.

Holy crap! Rush said something that was actually correct. Wow!

Who gives a rats tail what Rush Limb-druggie thinks????

is his fanbase as dumb as he is?

talk of conspiracy theories…

Rush exists to feed the hate appetite of the American far Right. If you are a Conservative, I call on you to stand against him like you wanted Muslim mullahs to speak out against terrorists.

Who cares about Rush?

Another D.C. insider. What happend to "change"???

Maybe….just maybe, Obama may be doing whats he feels is best for this country. Maybe thats the change he is talking about. I really didnt look at all 196 comments but I sure didnt see anything that alluded to this foreign concept. After 8 years of Bush Junior its seems obvious that our views are almost entirely cynacal (sp)

It was a genious pick because it is UNCONSITUTIONAL for Hilary to service as secretary of state. Ha!

Great! Lots of bashing going on in the comments section and they call themselves Americans. No wonder people across the world don't like us.

Rush signed a ten year deal for $400 million. He doesn't need his so called "ditto heads" to keep his name in the news, he needs most of you. That seems to be working just fine. Say the name "Rush" and you are barking like a mad dog. You're the Redneck, not him.

No body listens to fat limbo because he is racist and sexist.

I cannot believe anyone listens to what this guy has to say. He is worth millions of dollars and could care less about his audience.
How can anyone believe he is looking out for the "Joe the Plumbers" He just wants ratings so he can continue to make his millions of dollars. Let me just say this I did vote for Bush the first time around
and I am sorry I did. Give Obama a chance – I gave GWB a chance.

Limbaugh is one of the kindest people on earth. His demonization by the hate monger liberal ideologues is not only sinful, but very dangerous.

Obama is just as much a calculating politician as the rest of Washingon. He plans to keep Hillary close so she cant argue that there are dufferences between them. It was a brilliant move. Obama by the way is moving quickly to the right which is where the majority of America is.

Mr Limbaugh, do us a real favor and give yourself a "darwin award"

GUESS WHAT?? WHO IN THE H… CARES WHAT THIS IDIOT RUSH LIMBAUGH THINKS. GUESS WHAT ELSE LIMBAUGH – IF YOU REALLY KNEW HOW MANY PEOPLE DISLIKED YOU – YOU WOULD RETIRE OFF THE AIRWAVES. GET LOST STUPID………………….

He is just trying to save face and put his stamp of approval on what is going to happen in spite of what he says or does. He is trying to act like someone even cares what he thinks. No thinking American cares what Rush thinks. He is a bad joke. Nov. 4 kicked his watoosie to the side line of American politics so he has to play act his approval just to get in the news. You are done Rush. Get a new life.

Who cares what Rush Limbaugh thinks? Who cares what ANY of the LUNATIC RIGHT thinks? All I have to say is, prepare yourselves for the best 8 years we've seen since the Clinton administration!

So now the master has spoken! We can all do without Rush Limbaugh and his opinions, good or bad. He's the best example of walking fertilizer around and a huge bag of gas!

you people make me sick, obama is a socialist who's going to destroy this country if he fulfills on his campaign promises, he will FORCE everyone that has "more than enough" money to be "charitable." he will overtax anyone who's successful, and give the money to everyone who is incapable of working to get themselves out of a gutter. I don't care what his personality is like, he's a socialist, plain and simple.

HOW COME Limbaugh didnt DO JAIL TIME for his drug offence??? THERE are people in jail for ONE JOINT .. and this LOONY TUNE of a human being is out there speading his filth ! JAIL TIME FOR LIMBAUGH!!!!

What would be brilliant is for Rush to put a sock in it.

and who are the people that are racist here? the one that understands politics? (Rush) or the people who are brainwashed into thinking that anyone who says anything that is out of line with the democrats beliefs ought to be shot because they have an opinion, and will express it at will, whether you want him to or not? sheesh people, he's smarter than you will ever be, so stop ripping into him because he is strong in opposing a socialist.

"…keep your enimies closer."
Sounds like Limbaugh wants to sleep with Obama.

Hey Rush,don't you have a football game to do?
Ah,that would be a no wouldn't it.

Take two and DON'T call anyone in the morning!

So you're complaining about Rush when we'regoing to have a Coke-head as Prez? Give me a break.

Wow! Hell just froze over again!

Rush can't spell brilliant, let alone know what it means. His idea of a 'brilliant' word is Plaxico!

i won't even acknowledge him with a comment neither should cnn give him a bully pulpit. shame on you cnn !!!!!!!!!!!!!

The man is not complimenting Hillary, in fact the comment is quite the opposite. It's a slam but some of you are to dumb to pick up on it.

i thought obama was running on the whole "Change" thing…what happened? it's like the Clinton Administration all over again.

No she can still run. Limbaugh your not as smart as your drugs make you think. What if she don't want to be Secretary of State after four years with Obama. You never thought of that one did you. Hillary 2012.

Once again Rush exposes to the rest of the world how transparent the left is…and once again, the left is clueless.

You can call the guy a drug addict, stupid, irrelevant, and any other name you can muster. Take all of that into consideration, and he still exposes the rampant stupidity on the left.

Priceless!

A "brilliant stroke" would be one the Lord gives Rush, to render him speechless, motionless, and unable to spew his vitriol.

Once again the liberal wing-nuts are out in force.

When this great control is in shambles you have only yourselve and Komarad Obama to blame.

The only people that voted for Obama were the people that couldn't think for themselves.

Not very observant of them.

Future United Socialist States of America

Rush needs to take a few more pills. Rush and the rest of the moral police ought to look in the mirror. One reason they lost the election is people are sick of others preaching right and wrong and who's a bigger patriot. If I want religion in the government I'll move to Iran.

The truth hurts doesn't it? What a group of losers here!

Re: Bush 08

How much linger are you stating that nonsense about Obama be born in Kenia.

You really are nuts !!

not to mention of course that Rush's favorite past-time is Clinton bashing

Gee, how unexpected to see so many people (mostly apparent liberals from a quick glance) using ad hominem arguments as their main point. Yeesh, I've met plenty of "dumb rednecks" and I don't see a lot of difference between your logic and theirs. Unsubstantiated, emotional arguments supported by biased sources (if any at all) whose writing style should be characterized as sophism. It's no surprise considering our impeccable education system in this country…

P.S. I am not a liberal, conservative, green party member, democrat, republican or any other thoughtless drone who makes decisions bases on fuzzy self-serving ideals. I take information as it is presented and discovered and I subject it to logic and scrutiny. Anything that is real or the truth will stand up to any and all scrutiny. My fellow Americans: please GET REAL!

Obama picking Hillary isn't about 2012, it's about grooming her for 2016.
Rush is a short-sighted moron.

Does this drug addicts opinion matter to anyone…I DON'T THINK SO!
GHOST YOURSELF RUSH!

wow I want to be a liberal they seem to thrive on bashing must not be able to think of anything else to say. Liberal: someone so open minded their brain fell out

Rush you are the best. Anyone who can peeve off liberals with the truth everyday because they know deep down you are right but can't say it opebnly is amaizing.

Why is this news?

Whenever I hear Limbaugh's voice on the radio, I literally have to leave the room where the radio is or I might throw it through a window. But, that being said, Rushbo, the moralizing/hypocrite/chicken hawk pill-popper with a sore on his butt which prevented him from going to Vietnam, is right.

I mean, Obama got to see all of Bill's secrets and basically tied Hillary to him and his policies…so, she can't really run against him in 2012. It's brilliant. Obama is a different type of politician, but he's still a politician. He obviously chafes at mudslinging and vitriol and he went out of his way to complement Sen McCain, but I think his political style is to tell someone to go to hell and make them enjoy the trip.

He disarms people with his personality. I remember during the Khalidi controversy and I read up on Khalidi and what he said about Obama and the one thing he said about Obama is that he'll hear you out and make you feel that he agrees with you when he doesn't. Khalidi basically thought Obama after listening to his pro-Palestine position that he was pro-Palestine but he wasn't. During the 2001 intifada, he asked a Jewish legislator friend to sign him up on a letter condemning Palestinian terror attacks. He disarms people by seeming compliant to their interests making them show their hand while he remains ambiguous to them. I like that about him. It shows he plays chess while others are taking risks by playing poker.

And by giving Hillary SOS, which I think she is qualified for since she does know many of the world leaders, he basically told her to go to hell on her 2012 ambitions while giving her a uber-powerful job that puts her under his thumb. I think she meant it when she said she wouldn't run in 2012 but Bill might have convinced her of it later on and she can't run now after being Obama's SOS.

Who takes anything a thrice divorced, deaf, drug addicted gas bag says seriously?

This just shows that Rush is truly an idiot. Hilary is calculating that Obama will win a second term rather easily, so she is angling for 2016, when she will the logical choice. This has nothing to do with 2012.

viki-Are you talking about Obama or Clinton?

He's played his role masterfully. Now he is joining the Obama club. Nice show you guys put on. Too bad it will be all for naught!

excellent choice

Patriot:

Obama is not President yet, is he? There is only one President at a time. He DOES have a plan though, which is more than I can say for the present administration.

Nice comment #169 you are insane not brilliant! Get some help. You need drugs and not vicodin!

Where is the reaction from Air America?

He is back on the PILL's again…Better check him out..How many doctors does he have now???? He is DEAF and DUMB…

Why does anyone care what this druggie has to say? He is a no one whose opinion is only held high by brainless drones who can't think for themselves.

Rush who? I was hoping that he and Hannity would find some nice big rocks to crawl under at least for the next four years!

He's still an Idiot.

Rush is a crazy racist pig! I pity anyone who respects his opinion.

This guy is an idiot! The party of the incumbent always chooses the incumbent. Hilary would not be facing him in a primary in 2012 anyway. If he wanted the nomination, he would have it.

Well Rush is entertaining and has wonderful ideas. Just turn that knob. What a strang amount of hate coming from people who say Rush is a hate monger. Go Rush Go

If Rush is as stupid as the name calling libs are claiming, why is he so successful and wealthy ? Hmmm

I'm starting to think it was a bad idea now. If he's for it, it can't be good.

Rush who? I thought he was the guy that built a compound in Texas where all the right wing liberals went to die…..

This moron is trying to cash in. He is trying to get back into the spot light by congratulating President Hussein Obama for fear the world is leaving him and his bigotry behind.

what a loser

I guess Rush must be hitting the pain killers again…

The people voted the Clintons out but Obama didn't take the hint. I hate the thought of having to continue to look at them.

He finally got one right…..

Even while in the throes of power the left wing nut job clowns always have to have something or someone to toss their anger and rage at. You people are so amazing. Your super inflated egos compel you to spout nonsense on a subject and personna you don't even know. There's a name for the behavior and it's called insanity. You're so willing to judge others, sling out names to make yourselves feel better, believe what you read, and never dig for any truth. That's a direct result of insecurity, ignorance, and laziness. I'm willing to give Obama a chance, even though I know what he's about….a display of tolerance and fairness. If he fails, we have all of you and the mainstream media to blame instead of Bush. You people continue to divide this country. How will Obama fix YOU?????????????

although i dont always agree with rush he does make alot of sense at times. and like anything else leave the bad and take the good. and texas teacher im moving to texas and i hope your no where near se houston …. because if you are i`ll stay in georgia…..your a nut case. left winger. and you teach kids?……..

Who cares what Rush Limbaugh thinks or says?!
He's a loud mouthed nobody.

Rush must be very relevent. Most of the responses deal with him and not with Clinton. I said exactly what Rush said a month ago to my family when her selection was first mentioned. If the door opens, if Obama falls on his face, she would have to resign as SOS if she wanted to run in 2012 (2011) the way election campaigns go. He has neutralized a Senate critic, and don't think she wouldn't be that in the Senate.

Jim,
I veiw you "exactly" the same way as you view me,I'm even posting here for the exact same reason you did,and at the same time,I think you are vary naive.Limbaugh makes good points at times.

Anything that this blow hard has to say shouldn't be news.

His opinion means less than nothing to anyone with an IQ above dirt.

Politicians are like diapers they need changing real often. I will bet the left wingers are already squirming because of all that reaching across to Republicans for help. I would have thought Robert Gates would have been smarter.The Clinton dynasty lives.

This is hillarious! All of these posters who say Rush is a nobody. Then why are you wasting your time commenting on him?

Shut Up!

Limbaugh isn't too far off the mark. Clinton had already reserved her website space for 2012 (in the summer of 2008). In 2016, she'll be too old to run for President. Secretary of State is the most powerful position Clinton could be endowed with. The Clintons indeed have a lot of baggage. Many voters are either too young or too unaware to know how the Clintons abused power. There are many reasons why Clinton should not be Secretary of State. But, she will do a good job so long that she doesn't make another "we're going to obliterate them [Iran]" public statement in an interview (which immediately went around the world) and her husband doesn't take any more "donations" from Arab countries. Obama has probably made a wise decision, however the Clintons will have to adjust and to get used to not being above the law if they want a positive legacy.

Why is no one questioning her credentials? Who cares if her appointment pleases though who voted for her in the primaries or causes Obama to avoid a heated primary challenge in 4 years. She's a dishonest politician who isn't the most qualified person for the job. I am troubled by Obama's choice. Clearly his call for change rings hollow.

Rush Limburger is not getting my goat. He is right about Hilliary being a good pick as far as experience and I think that if she is sincere about serving the American people, she will work with Obama and not against him. Rush is happy about the pick so he highlight any disagreements they might have. He's just a drip trying to work the faucet.

who listens to am radio? obviously all you boozos above me.

Obama's cabinet looks like Bill Clinton 2.0

Who cares what Rush Limbaugh thinks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so insightful and brilliant.

I see that the Pig is still on Drugs! I wonder what automobile he drives. Is it a small gas friendly car???

Rush, you should rush yourself into a hole. Hillary has no intendtions on running for President in 2012.President Elect has already beaten Hillary so what is there to fear. He though so much of her he hired her on his team and if you think that your Sarah Palin can win in 2012 you should utilize some of your bright ideas to help her. But after looking at her interviews I don't know if there is much help for her by 2012.

None of you get it! Some change! Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton (oops…Obama/Clinton and the rest of the old line democrats). Just wait and see if Obama ends the war before 2011. The problem is all of you are too emotionally concerned over what Rush is saying verses the real truth. No change at all in D.C. Do the real American patriots a favor and go back to sleep!

Why would anyone listen to anything that limpbaugh says…much less take it serious…

If you are not a left wing nut everything is awaiting moderation. If what I see is any example of the people running this country we are in deep trouble. You have refused every post I have made . I have been lied to by your staff since before this election. I was told that my messages and emails were not blocked to Breaking News Post a comment.They have either been awaiting moderation or simply not accepted while you let the left wing nuts abuse everyone. When an invitation to post a comment is there it should be for everyone.

Rush, did you ever consider that maybe Hillary took the job because she cares about America enough to step past political ambition in order to reverse the damage that these past eight years have caused? And that maybe, just maybe, President-elect Obama asked for her because he knows, despite their differences, that she's the best equipped to help him do so?

Reminds me of that old Trudeau joke:

Q: What's the difference between the Hindenberg and Rush Limbaugh?

A: Well, one is a flaming Nazi gasbag….the other's just a dirigible.

Rush is basically the sound of one mouth flapping. He is a leading member of the "I'm qualified to judge others–but don't judge me (particularly regarding my illegal use of prescription medication)" AM radio brigade, that daily mints and trades the coin of angry/"poor me" talk radio.

Hopefully his listeners, on average 55 and against health care for the rest of us anyway, will die one by one from the side-effects on the medication they take from the pharmaceutical companies they didn't want to regulate, and Rush will lose his listeners until he's the only one paying attention to him.

…he'll keep talking of course, and it won't be any more meaningful than his opinion of Hillary as Secretary of State, but at least he won't be on the radio any more.

Oh no. Is he on drugs again?

THIS IS SCARY.

Rush Limbaugh has a compliment for a Democrat . . . . . . (even if the compliment is jaded)???

He's just trying to jump on the "right" train that's already left him and the other fringe Republicans like Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, Lou Dobbs and Michelle Bachmann wondering what to do now. Bye Bye Karl.

Who cares what Rush Limbaugh thinks!!!!!! He's is totally irrelevant.

Why on Earth does that drug addled gas bag still have a job…more importantly who is pathetic enough to WANT to listen to it?

Ahhhh… spoken like a true Richard Cranium

This guy just need to put it in park. Enough is enough. Has he taken a second look at himself or he should listen to some of his tapes. If I looked and sounded like this guy I would definitely shut up!

The fact that 60 million Americans have been suckered by the false promise of "change" has been proven in the gushing excitement of the right-wing punditry and politicos over Obama's decidedly DC establishment/neoliberal (read: conservative) Cabinet and staff picks. I suppose "right-wing punditry" is a bit of a redundant praise, where exactly is this alleged "liberal media" hiding out?

Don't blame me, I voted for Nader.

Earlier today Larry posted this bit of genius:

The only people that don't understand what Rush is talking about ,are idealistic,uninformed,people that want the government to make decisions for them and all of us,the people that do understand what Rush is saying,prefer to think and act with personal responsibility ,without the government being involved.Republicans are like the pilgrims that left England for personal freedom,Democrats are like the English that stayed in England and Socialism.

Well, Larry learn your history. The pilgrams did not "Leave" England. They were tossed out because they were lunatics (A modern equivalent might be the Jonestown crew or the Branch Davidians). They ended up in Holland and pissed off the locals so much that they were tossed out of Holland in a few short years. They finally washed up on the shores of New England, a bunch of ignorant chowder heads unable to even feed themselves in a land teeming with game and a waters thick with fish and seafood. Hardly paragons of personal freedom, their Draconian approach to life splinter thier own group turning family members against one another. Their folly culminated in the witch burnings of Salem. While they are firmly planted in American mythology, they were hardly a lot to be admired and as I said, not really that interested in other peoples personal freedoms.

For those of you laughing about lack of change, and still buying Limbaugh's self-indulgent nonsense, I suggest you take that ol' thinking cap out, and dust it off. Yes, yes, I know, I know. Limbaugh and others like him have been doing your thinking for you for a long time, but try this on for size.

The change Obama is talking about is not necessarily a change in personnel. It is not change for change's sake. It is a change in the way our government does business. It is about getting the right people in the right job, no matter what their political background or affiliations, and putting them to work on actual plans and strategies. It is about the government being accountable, and following the rule of law. It is about cutting waste, and stopping the pandering to big oil. It is about doing things methodically and with purpose, instead of wandering around, hoping something good will happen.

Even Rush knows it's time to change. He's backpedaling so hard he's raising dust. I'm sure their is some little country town with a 500 watt radio station that would dearly love him to do the daily farm report. Let's hope he gets the job. He's about to lose the one he's got.

Limbaugh is nuts and probably thinks that Hillary and Obama will wind up on mad at each other.
But then who cares what limbaugh thinks and says. He has an alligator mouth and woodpeckers behind.

Can Limbaugh stop Mayor Bloomberg from increasing the fares on buses and subways ?

Who is Rush Limbaugh??

Rush is right.

Who on earth listens to that lying drug-addicted gas bag anymore? The local insane asylum?

"You cannot win an argument with an ignorant man".

All I can say is with 2 Clintons trying to push Obama off the stage, he really needs some very good agents and probably a food taster at any social events they all 3 attend.

I don't think for one minute Hillary has any intention of being subservant to Obama and as for Bill…well you already know the answer to that one. I think there will be strong undercurrents with those 2 so close to Obama and it can't help but be a distraction.

I get the strategy if that was the reason for the appointment, but it's a dangerous game with those 2. They will intentionally upstage Obama any change they get. She can't openly critize him as being naive on foreign policy whle she serves under him but as she once stated Obama is President "as far as she knows" . And like Bill said "Jessie Jackson ran a brilliant campaign". So those aren't critical statements now are they? What are the odds Washington's power couple will fall in line behind anyone?

America needs better and deserves better at this critical time in our history. Ive had enough of both Clintons to last a lifetime.

In his typically myopic style, the great poobah fails to see that Obama has chosen his cabinet based on ability and experience…unlike his buddy, John McCain.
Welcome, ignorant Dittoheads, to real change based on intelligence, capability, and vision; not politics as usual.

Who cares what Rush the hate monger thinks!!

Picking Clinton was brilliant, but there's Nothing brilliant about Limbaugh!!!!!!!!!!!

This man has only one talent – the ability to fart out of his mouth! Shame on the media (and us) for giving him so much airtime and importance.

Amazing – to think that I thought this (?) was a total imbecile!!! Well, he is right, at least once in his life!!! And now, I don't mind so much that Obama won this election. Perhaps he really will do some of the things he has promised the people. I go on record as nominating him one of the world's most impressive orators. NOW, I'm hoping that at least half of his gilded words will ring true!!!

If anybody should know that politics is a dog-eat-dog cesspool this guy should.

Mr Clueless speaks again.

Even as an conservitive myself i think Rush is a moron, he is an entertainer, and brings nothing to the table of helping the USA back to the country of freedom and liberty it was born to have.

To mike rose…so let me get this right….you hope that our "country is rocked to it.s very foundation" and we have to beg the likes of you to defend us?

Would you hope the same thing if we had elected your guy? To wish ill for the country I'm sure u claim to love for any political reason is truly a sad statement regarding your patriotism. How bout see what the new administration does before you vilify them. Had your party done a better job with the difficult task of governing then they might not have been run outta Washington so decisively. Take your medicine like rush and maybe try some meditation?

It's sad to see so many taking shots at a person who is/was addicted to drugs. How many of you have addicts and alcoholics in your own families? Not one of you? I'm awe stricken. Regardless of whether or not you agree with his politics, an illness is an illness. Would it be appropriate to attack Senator Edward Kennedy, because he has cancer?

What does it matter what Limbaugh says! He is one of the most unreasonable loudmouth that there is. Bla, bla, bla.

Dude,
You really need to get a life……………Fat boy.

Limbaugh is the true definition of "Lipstick on a Pig"

This is a good point, actually, by a man who usually lacks that ability. Then again, HIllary running in 2012 is ridiculous, who would support her, and why would she be that selfish?

Who cares about this red neckçs comments. This scumbag should be limited to address his opinions to the trailer park community.

How would a dimbulb like Rush even know the definition of "brilliant?"

Who cares what Rush thinks? He is probably strung out on Oxycontin for most of his "waking" time.

THE WORST PRESIDENT IN HISTORY should not pardon anyone. He should just sit in a corner and wait until his administration is OVER. Don't do anything, touch anything or call anyone. Just sit there and watch the clock.

Tick tock…it's almost time for a change.

P.S. who in the Hell listens to AM radio anyway?

Why does anyone listen to this sanctimonious bag of wind?!

Limburger stinks.

First of all, Clinton has said she won't seek the office again.
Rush's whole argument about "enemies closer" is blow.
She's defeated, soundly, and realizes she will never be President.

Moreover, she really has no position, authority, or political impetus to criticize Obama regardless of whether she gets ANY cabinet slot.
Any complaining by Clinton will be seen as shrill and shrew, and
will make even MORE people hate her irrationally than already do.

But I agree that she was a good pick. Political master stroke? Hardly.

Rush needs his medication doubled.

Who cares about this red neck´s opinion. I guess with Gov. Palin out of the spot light they can´t find a better circus show to interview.

A very accurate quote from our President Elect that applies to Bush Limbaugh " You can put lipstick on a pig , it's still a pig "

This guys is so cynical, it pisses me off people give him the time of day but then again I'm here replying to this…as if this guy is anybody…i can't believe so many ppl hang on his words or give a crap what he thinks. But yet, here I am replying to it because I know those uneducated rednecks are out there…

Rush Limbaugh is a spineless glob of spit that has done more harm to this country than Benedict Arnold and Lee H. Oswald. He needs to retire to his Oxycontin and shut the hell up.

MR. RUSH L. YOUR TOUNGE IS DEADLIER THAN A TERRORIST ATTACK!!!

Why should anyone care what Limboob says about anyone? Get back on the bills and grow up!

Who cares what some guy who never got beyond high school thinks? I'm not talking about any poster. I'm talking about Rush.

Limbaugh also thought that bringing a bottle of someone else's VIAGRA to a country well known for childhood prostitution was brilliant! Maybe Rush and Papa Bear OI'Reilly should get themselves a loofah and take a shower together. They could discuss their mutual irrelevancy.

Seriously….who cares about Limbaugh's opinion? really, who cares?

Funny how this dope addict resembles Larry Craig and his rhetoric resembles Karl Rove. I remember back in the late eighties when he first came on political radio 'his best memories were about pro football and how he always reminised about being in the locker room or shower with these great big athletes. Probably explains his long large cigar that is always sticking out of his mouth.

Well said Rush.

no matter what anyone here says . limbaugh has great influence on the kkk wing of the republican party . he is the grand wizard . his words mena nothing to intellegent people but to his cult he is very important. he will be araound for a long time. my call is for him to stop hiding behind that microphone and come out and debate. cnn if u are going to quote him tell him to come and play . let roland martin interview him. stop quoting someone who hides behind fox and his microphone

I like Limbaugh. He is a bit loud sometimes but he is right about a lot of things.

Why anyone listens to this drug addicted moron is beyond me. People like him are dangerous to the US, not constructively critical.

To the ill-informed commentor below who is STILL claiming that Obama is not an American Citizen born in this country:

You lump head! *LOL* I have explained this fact repeatedly! Do you not read anyone's comments but your own?

His mother is a citizen of this country, therefore, wherever she gave birth HER SON is an American Citizen!

There now…. I feel better…

Who gives a rats but what Limbaugh, this is a waste of your time and mine. How about reporting something of worth!

So when again Larry did you be the authority on politics. As stated by others must be a slow day when we really need to listen to what this pill popper has to say.

Limbaugh makes his living by spewing controversial and hate filled speeches-that's the only reason he keeps his ratings. If he didn't, he wouldn't be on the air; his political posturing is as boring as watching paint dry. He's just an irrelevant wind bag, and a drug addict to boot. This is probably the kid that held his breath until he got his way from his parents, then bullied the other kids in the school yard to hide his own inadequacies.

Ten years ago when Hillary was the first lady, he had only vile things to say about her. Just wait two weeks and he'll be back to that game.

Is the fat hog pill popping and wandered off the talk radio farm? Does he actually thinks anyone outside the dittoheads give 2 s&!rs about anything that come out of his pie hole?

Some one find the Ambien and send him back to morning talk radio and away from the liberal media, we like that way!

you know what they say–"What's the difference between Rush Limbaugh and the Hindenburg?"

answer: one's a blimp, and the other's a flaming Nazi gasbag

Seems to me Mr. Limbaugh is a bit bitter that his party lacks in the "good political strategy" department…

who gives a hoot what this racist think, he's nobody, and he's jealous of obama's superiority over him

Give Me A Break!!! Who cares what the pill popper's comments are in regards to Obama's cabinet member picks. Hell, all he is going to do is look for anything negative to rant about for the next four years to keep his racist small minded listeners tuning in to hear him scream and shout over the radio. He and Hannity are laughing all the way to the bank preaching hate and race-mongering to a group of people who are absorbing it up as if these two are providing factual and truthful information. The great thing about the 2008 election is that the majority of the American population did not buy into their hype of diversive politics. The way to beat them at their own game is for the majority to remain united for the good of OUR COUNTRY.

Way to go Rush….you're spot on again. Keep driving the crazy pot smoking long haired liberals mad….it's working ! They're even mad at themselves when they should be celebrating their victory….idiots !

bush08 give it up already! OBAMA is our next president. deal with it!

Old RL seems to forget that it is poor form for the party in power to run a candidate against its standard bearer in a presidential election. I seriously doubt we would have seen Hillary run against Obama in 2012. When will Limbaugh crawl into his hole for good?

Some one is hiding her. Who and why?

She's an illegal immigrant living off taxpayer money in Public housing.

She was deported by a judge 4 years ago and has not left. Where's CNN on this story? Have you been ordered to ignore it????

A pig without lipstick

To all of the people that think Rush was complimenting the choice—he wasn't .He is being sarcastic,you people are so naive,and stupid,it's scary

And people pay attention to this doctor shopping hillbillie-junky why…?

To Bill – Hillary is 'change we can believe in' What a joke!!!

We agree.

Obama knows what he is doing and is picking an excellent cabinet!

Rush is right on the money once again. The Obama folks know he is right and so does Hillary. Obama beat the Clintons at their own game…good job Barack.

Who cares what this hypocritical windbag thinks? Haven't we had enough of hatred and negativity? Rush Limbaugh and other hate mongers like Michael Savage and Michael Reagan are detrimental to our society's mental health. Healthy debate, constructive criticism and discourse are a lot different than constant droning negativity and intolerance.

I hope the country begins to turn their back on these millstones. We need to start demanding healthy discussions and constructive criticism.

Rush, nobody cares about your opinion. take a hike

Impressed by the amount of uneducated name-calling liberals out there. Everybody is entitled to their opinion – there is no need to insult.

Limbaugh speaks for the GOP now? is he the best they can offer???? he is worst then Palin…. oh my goodness we need to stop interviewing or acknowledging this drug addicted fear mongering guy…. He is the worst of the worst and if this is all the GOP have to offer they will be in dumps for many, many years from now…. I said all that to say…. who cares what Limbaugh says or thinks…. he is only pandering to a small segment of Americans he makes the majority sick…

She's Obama's Director of Homeland Security—–

Tell me, what in her background makes you feel that she can prevent and or deal with a Mumbai type of attack????

Answer: Nothing

Suggest your buy a armored car to drive your kids to school and get a flak jacket for yourself.

Who?

To Mike Stone: I think this country is in the process of being "rocked to its very foundation". What the foundation is remains to be seen. I highly doubt you will ever get the satisfaction of laying down your arms and giving over us "left wing idiots" to whom ever you believe may want to do with us as they please. I think that is what your party is saying about you right now to the new left wing regime. You may have to lie down your arms sooner than you think and we (left wing idiots) will be the ones who determine your future. It is a good thing for you we are a forgiving bunch of idiots.

Rush Limbaugh, shhhhhh! Now, that sounds better. The man has the biggest mouth with absolutely nothing to say. He's the biggest racist, who appears to be very miserable. More oxyncontin Mr. Limabaugh?

Well if you spend all your time surrounded by republicans and bombarded by republican ideas it's easy to see why you'd think everyone was a self-serving cynic.

I am absolutely disappointed in Barbara Walters for giving this egotistical pig Limbaugh a forum to run off his blathering mouth.

Why anyone would listen to anything Limbaugh (or Karl Rove) has to say is beyond me. They are both beyond disgusting.

Oh, no…, I thought this drug addict was in jail.

Rush. Is. A. BAND!

OMG!! The country really has changed. Now perhaps the pundits like him will report and help analyze real issues and not this obsurd right wing hate machine.

Rush is an irrelevant piece of excrement.

"Why , WHy , WHY does the media give SOOOO MUCH AIRSPACE AND FRONTLINES TO IDIOTS"

Well, Obama is the President, isn't he? Oh!! You were talking about someone else, sorry.

Why was Barbara Walters even interviewing this loser? I guess ABC must really be going down the toilet.

And we heard the rumor that some people want Bill for her seat. Darn it all, I was hoping he would move to Minnesota and if Franken gets beat he could run against Coleman. He'd mow him down.

Hey you Republican einsteins…the "change" is the change from Bush. Id be perfectly fine with the same economic conditions as they were when Bill Clinton was in office.

Republicans looking to complain again.

Who is this comedian, Rush Limbaugh?

Reading these comments just reaffirms why liberals / liberalism should be treated somehow through psychiatry. You people ooze with hate and bile, foaming at the mouth at any opposition to your beliefs. "Cults" do the same.

When Obama is President,
He should send the FCC after this guy
for slander and get him off the air.
What an idiot.

Why do we pay attention to this guy???? Just let move on!!!!When you multiply any number by zero, what do you get? I tell you the answer: 0
Let's move on, he's nobody, Zero, 0 !!!! Let's talk about important suff.

Mr. Limbaugh is indeed a master of the obvious. His acute sense of political nuance is paralleled only by his ability to discern generic drugs from their name brand counterparts. Good job Rush old boy! Keep up the good work! Wink, wink, oink, oink.

The drug addiction comments regarding Rush are hilarious. I have never seen so many hypocrits. Obama is an admitted hard drug user and quite likely drug dealer in his earlier days and you made him president! And then the "irrelavent" comments are almost as funny. He is so "irrelavent" he got all these people to take time to make hateful comments. Gotta love it! I voted for McCain but I hope and pray that Obama is successful. I highly doubt very many Obama voters could make that statement and mean it if McCain had one. And that my friends is the biggest difference between conservatism and liberalism and the current state of our country. Imagine if Bush had received half the support from the libs and the liberal media that Obama will get going forward. Imagine…

Bill Clinton would have been a much more realistic and logical choice. He is a natural orator and almost every single person in the world loves the guy.

Is Rush Limbaugh even relevant anymore? I hardly think so. He's the spokesman for a true dinosaur; the Republican Party. Seriously Rush, take up golfing. Your job as conservative talk show host is pretty much an irrelevant boondoggle for the next 8 years. You might as well have some fun. Hit the golf courses you bald, fat, deaf, ugly, dope addict; nobody cares what you have to say anymore.

Although I couldn't disagree more with most things that come out of Rustys' mouth,he is the personification of the first amendment,I just find it quite humorous that he has such a loyal following that hang on his every word.The dumbing down process is rampant.

what i windbag…
the greatest thing i ever heard, and advertisers should pay attention, when radio switched from using journals to using listening devices limbagh's ratings crashed. the new things are worn by a person and tracks what they actually listen to. those diaries were a source of corruption. rush probably bribed people to say they were listening. now that they would actually have to listen they aren't.

you're a fraud rush.

Is there anyone out there NOT smart enough to know that this is EXACTLY why Obama picked someone without ANY qualifications for Secretary of State? I mean, her ONLY experience is having a hallucination about dodging Bosnian sniper fire.

Hillary is now DONE. The dream died.

Jeff – which person below said that Rush wasn't allowed to have an opinion. Criticizing him isn't the same as denying him his free speech rights. Rush is a fraud – he's in the entertainment industry, not the news industry.

The only people that don't understand what Rush is talking about ,are idealistic,uninformed,people that want the government to make decisions for them and all of us,the people that do understand what Rush is saying,prefer to think and act with personal responsibility ,without the government being involved.Republicans are like the pilgrims that left England for personal freedom,Democrats are like the English that stayed in England and Socialism.

Rush is still popping the pills, it goes like this Rush. Eight years Obama will be prez, eight years Hillary will be prez. Please go to Alaska Rush and watch Russia from Palin's front porch.

HEY OBAMA SUPPORTERS,

HOW ABOUT THAT CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE IT HILLARY AS SECRETARY OF STATE AND PREDOMINATELY ALL CLINTON PEOPLE AS STAFF!!!!!!!!!!

NOW WHO DID YOU SAY WON THIS ELECTION???????
___________________________________________________

Dear Welcome,

That would be BARACK OBAMA, the one who's moving to the White House.

Really now, who cares what Limbaugh thinks? I wish CNN and other outlets would stop paying attention to this nabob of negativism.

"NOW WHO DID YOU SAY WON THIS ELECTION???????"

The American people…

Just a response to Mr. Leo Campbell…in the word of drug and alcohol addiction, "recidivism" or RELAPSE, is a given. And, if you believe so strongly that opiate addicts are too far gone, maybe you should be worrying about the millions of TAXPAYER dollars going to habiliate/rehabilitate them.

C'mon. Letters from Bill, a little arm twisting, working the rumor mill….it all got little Hillary the job to elevate her clintonian status….Why don't the headlines read….Dow drops 600 points on Clinton Sec'y of State nomination….

"Braaaaaghh…bruggh..you keep your friends close…a buhhhrilliant stroke…gaaacck."
Who cares what this asinine plucked turkey thinks anyway…?

Limbaugh is actually agreeing with Obama. LOL What is up with that. What is his ultimatium. LOL.

Who besides the most sheeplike of his ever shrinking audience really cares what this windbag has to say about anything?

Who gives a rip how Limbaugh's devious mind works.

I agree, brilliant! She will never make it though. Well, she just may. People have been lying their way into office for years, reps and dems. But, does the democratic party have anyone else but the Clitons? Now, her husband is going to be a NY Senator! For heavens sake people, enough of the Clitons and that also means Obam's staff, ex-Clitons most of them. I thought this was "Change"! It's a remake of the Clitons.

Thank God that not all but of most of the posters on this subject are.in any position, of power. ill be so glad when this country is rocked to it.s very foundation and then you left wing idiots beg for people like myself to defend you that will surely be the day i lay down my arms and say they are not my sisters and brothers do with them as you please.

mike

President -Elect Obama is keeping his word, his concern is of what is best for our country, not what people may think. Negative, unhappy persons will always show negativity because that is how they have been programed by the great deciever.

obama WILL NOT BE PRESIDENT.HE WAS NOT BORN IN THE USA.HIS GRAND MOTHER ON HIS DADS SIDE EVEN WITNESSED HIS BIRTH IN KENYA.MEDIA WONT SAY A WORD ABOUT THIS THO.A SAD , SMALL obama

Hey Phillip Tanner, you really should try to provide intelligent commentary. Obviously you have a lack of understanding of what is really happening here. You must always listen to the mainstream media and their right winger reporting…

Thank God that not all but of most of the posters on this subject are.in any position, of power. ill be so glad when this country is rocked to it.s very foundation and then you left wing idiots beg for people like myself to defend you that will surely be the day i lay down my arms and say they are not my sisters and brothers do with them as you please.

mike

Uh…Isn't he supposed to be in jail?

His views are somewhat suspect and really a backhanded compliment to suggest sinister and not benign motives of the President Elect. As usual divisive double entendre with no higher aim than to stir up dissent, impotent as usual.

Hey Rj5000,

I couldn't have said it better myself..!!

Sam, very intelligent comment. You should really paint yourself a left wing lib. You obviously don't understand the hypocrisy in his comment… You really should go back to school and work on your understanding of political history…

Who is this person? He doesn't look well at all.

Limbaugh still believes that there is no Global Warming, doesn't he?
He is like a soap opera, the story line never changes, just the names of the charactors.
The only ones who care about what Rush Limbaugh has to say are the Sarah Palin followers.

AGAIN….Who CARES what this jerk says!!!!!
He should retire and make the air waves and internet space a better place

To Patriot who said "I asked my wife why the messiah hasn't fixed the economy yet. She is not political so I figured I could get an unbiased response. Her response, the Clintons haven't given him permission. HAHAHAHAHA, now that's change.
PE Obama is not President yet. He cannot use any power to change anything yet. And for those of you who keep calling him such, he is not the messiah!! He is our next President. Support him or move to the next country. If he fails, we all fail!
To the Welcome to the Obama Show- we do have change from fear mongering and hate to a thoughtful and educated leader. It just so happens that the best of the best may have already been on capital hill in the Clinton administration.

Obama, like Queen Elizabeth, is just a figurehead. Hillary is a genuine leader! The dems need her much more than the wonder boy!

I don't get people who say they "couldn't care less" about Rush Limbaugh's opinion but then, aside from posting a comment, post a really long, angry comment. It really seems to me like you people DO care about what he says, huh?

Am I the only one who's still surprised this guy has a career? I have to wonder if he only has a job so comedians have someone to pick on…?

See, this would be a fun thought to talk about over beer and whiskey, but after Obama has established himself so well in interviews, magazine and newspaper articles, and a book, I seriously doubt his decisions are that cut-and-dried.

Hey Jeff – Limbaugh is not saying it's a good pick.

My comment and the Republican party are awaiting moderation. If they keep listening to Rush they will never achieve moderation and will remain outside the main stream. If that is really where they want to be fine.

Wow! All these negative comments about Rush yet I don't read anything about how wrong he is. Looks like he may have struck a nerve with all you Obama Kool-aid drinkers.

Rush Limbaugh – always looking for attention. Three failed marriages, a drug addiction (he sure was tough on those who had an addiction problem until his hypocritical fat behind got caught) skirted away from a drug conviction, fired for a racist statement on national television, and is in touch with realitiy only on occasion. And his opinion matters? It just goes to show you that P.T. Barnum was right – "There's a sucker born every minute." They must all tune into the Rush Limbaugh Comedy Show.

rush wouldn't know anything good if his life depended on it. he's got his head so far up you know where that he forgot how much he dislikes and distrusts anything named clinton. but i don't like him because he's a slob second only to bill oreilly.

go duke… back boy.. fetch …………. run

Slimeball… What are you up to now?

Rush is the greatest propagandist living today. One could easily say he's contributed to this countries sad condition.

Rush and his kind have brought a level of meanness and prejudice to politics that will hurt this country for decades.

This man has NOTHING to say to me or any other loyal American. Stop pandering to him!

tim.. if your dogs can make that kind of money,, u need to be in a kennel

I'm sure all you libs will look forward to the "Fairness Doctrine" so you can get Air America up and moving again. Apparently people do listen to Rush Limbaugh, he has one of the highest rated radio talk shows, along with Hannity, Levin and many others. Conservative talk shows always have good ratings. That is why they can stay on the air without government intervention; whatever happened to Air America anyway? Fox News has pretty high ratings too. I would think a conservative newspaper might pull print out it's slump as well. Of course if that begins to happen the libs will probably see if they can't find some judges to re-interpret the first ammendment or make a new law to hush the voices they deem unfavorable. Good ole liberty at work.

My god most of you people are about as niave as they come.

I am NOT a Rush fan, not by a long shot. But he is right on this one.
By putting Hillary as SOS, Obama has basicly put a muzzle on her.
By taking her out of congress, he eliminates one of his oppositions.

You people really need to grow up, look past the end of your nose and your contempt for anything other than Democrats.

By putting Hillary under his command more or less, Obama has secured the fact he will not have to fight her in congress.

…yawn…

Hey Big Fat Liar!
Trying to get some exposure for your failing Excellence In Flatulence network?
Lush Rimshot will go the way of the idiot neocons.
Buh-bye.

This man is the ultimate clown – he makes Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews look sane and rational by comparison.

Hillary Clinton will be awesome as SOS – because she is smart, strong, poised and knows issues inside and out.

Those are many of the reasons she got 18 million votes!

Who cares what Rush thinks? About anything?

Do people really still pay any attention to this blowhard? Didn't his relevance vanish in the post-Clinton world?

C'mon! The guy does not deserve the press. He will insult anybody if the money is right. High school drop out thinker ….Only in America!

mike …… he makes 12 million a year

My comment is:

Pres. Elect Obama seems to have a strong hand on the wheel of
Government, and in just a few days has done more than most of the
men that have gone before him. In my view he will be one of the best
presidents this nation has ever seen, just wait and see.

Who really cares what Rush has to say? Anyone here?

Rush why don't you just blow away. Sick of your raving and ranting. You and Sean Hannity should give it a rest.. I don't know why the two of you don't have lawsuits against you for slander. You are one lucky Dude. Actually getting paid for being silly.

any one watching the stars,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, look outside……….. on the east coast that is…………

Obama ran on a campaign of change…so far, he is same old, same old, old school Washington…too bad, even the ones who hint at something different become clones of the status quo.

And we the people pay.

Limbaugh is right. By choosing Hillary, Obama chose re-election safety in 2012, because he knows his policies aren't going to bring a whirlwind of change in either the economy or the war…those things have to sort themselves out over time.

And just when I thought perhaps we were going to be rid of the Clinton windbags……#$%$#@!

Does anyone reallt believe the Democratic party would allow Clinton to challenge an incumbent president? Obama will be the automatic nominee in 2012, no matter who is the Sec if State. Sure there will be a few oddball challengers, but no one with any hopes of a political future will challenge an incumbent president. That would be political suicide. Rush is a moron. He has nothing nice to say, Obama has made no mistakes thus far, and has chosen no controversial people, so Rush has to find something to go after, this is it. What a loudmouth windbag.

I don't really get a lot of you. He said it. They reported it. Just because you don't agree with him doesn't mean he's not allowed to have an opinion. It's significant because of what he stands for related to the content of what he said. Why does it kill you so much that a conservative thought it was a good pick? Lashing out just makes you seem more dividing than Rush!

Rush who? The guy lost what little credibility he had left when I heard him say that Sarah Palin is the future of the Republican Party.

I wish old 'Lush' would simply retire from the real entertainment world, and go back to his 'fantasy' oxycontin / hillbilly heroin world.

Since the recividism (failure) rate for oxycontin addicts is nearly 85%, he may have never left those days…

Rush is pointing out the obvious here. Hillary is not dumb. I am sure she thought of these ramifications before she made her decision. Maybe she doesn't want to run in 2012. How could she win anyway? Either Obama will mess it up so bad, the Republicans will be back in office, or people will love Obama they wont give him up! Sadly she is out of it for a long time.

Rush is only on the radio, it seems these people that write here can't change the channel, it seems like they are forced to listen to Rush.I think the more dangeres thing these days are the people that can hold such hatred for someone that has a different view than them. if you read these post, these people have hate very deep inside. I bet most here havn't even listen to him at all.I am not saying you would like him, I don't listen either. As i said turn the channel. Maybe we could get along if hate wasn't the only feeling we have for someone we disagree with.

While it is not a rule that the sitting President is the automatic nominee of the party it is considered poor form to camapign against your own party's incumbent especially if they are popular. The fact that Hillary accepted the job leads me to believe that she thinks Obama will still be fomidable enough in 2012 that making a run at the nomination would be political suicide on her part.

Who gives a rats A$$ what this idiot thinks!?

Rush should take some more pain killers – I did not even know he still was around… Are his opinions relevant? He should apply for the Notre Dame coaching job.

This whole thing is ironic, particularly from a hypocrite like Rush Limbaugh: under Hillary's healthcare reform proposals – as well as Obama's – Limbaugh would've spent less money out-of-pocket on all those opioid pills. It comes down to two words: SOUR GRAPES.

And I praise God that Obama actually won without engaging in systemic voter fraud like we saw a certain other political party get away with in Ohio & Florida in 2004 & 2000.

Take *that* and smoke it in your Global-Warming-Is-Fiction pipe!

please stop giving this guy any airtime! he's a joke and you know it! why oh why must you put your viewers through this waste of time? it's ridiculous how this guy gets your attention everytime he says anything stupid! c'mon CNN!!! let's have some responsible and intelligent journalism!

limbaugh the f–wad; all that oxycontin is calcifying his brain….what a jack@$$.

Isn't Rush dead already? How can anyone still alive be so irrelevant…

Rush Who?

Oh, THAT Rush.

Gee. I thought he'd died off along with all of the other old dinosaurs last month…

RUSH=BIG MOUTH SMALL MIND!!

OH GEE, the ringmaster of STUPID has spoken. Old Rush is sounding more and more like his transgender brother Ann Coulter every day!

I love the "Rush who?", and the "Rush doesn't matter." people… very funny. This guy is the most popular talk show host on the radio, has been since the start.

The issue here is that not one liberal took issue with what he said, or tried to make their own case. it was all hate. One of the posts i read called Limbaugh a stinking pig… I think that's what uneducated people do. Call names, speak of what they don't understand… If you listened to his show, even if you didn't agree, you could clearly understand where he was coming from.

Debate the issues if you can, but leave the name calling to the kids. Geez….

He actually is right on this one and the best part is that Hillary is not a lock on SoS. She has to go through confirmation hearings and I don't think she will make it with all of her and Bills baggage they bring. Secretaries of State are not allowed to lie about things like imaginary sniper fire, throw things at people or steal from the White House. Not to mention her horrible attitude towards the Secret Service while first lady.

Good luck Hillary there are a lot of people out of work and you will be one of them soon enough.

Hillary is going to let Obama have his 8 years, then she will run and WIN in 2016. 8 more dem years for us Eat that Rush

That is true, John Clark. But, in most cases, hardly do other candidates want to run against the incumbent president of their political party.

In presidential history, only once did incumbent president was not nominated to run for a second term that was Franklin Pierce, fourteenth President of the United States from 1853 to 1857.

I am so sick of reading about the 'strategies' of the 'opponents'.
Choosing a Cabinet isn't a game! Obama chose the most qualified person. Why is Rush, etc. so cynical??

Whoops… my mistake… but it's happened before…

sOMETIMES I WISH RUSH LIMBAUGH WOULD HAVE A BRILLANT STROKE! SHUT UP PLEASE!

one man's zero is another man's hero.

we all know its clinton and obama's fault for failed bush policies. its called blind faith and its no different than the The Fundamentals of Extremism.

limbaugh brings as much productivity to a discussion as the taliban. and sadly people listen.

The Whitehouse will be Clinton Free in 2012, Whoopie!

Since when did drug abusers (Limbaugh) become qualified to speak on any topic? I'm pick my role models better than druggies.

Quite frankly, what makes Rush Limbaugh and expert on anything?
I grow weary of media outlets running to a talk-show host who anyone with any sense knows will rail at anything that smacks of any kind of liberalism.
Merely being loud and and an acknowledged mouthpiece for the right-wing, shouldn't qualify you as an expert about anything, except being a mouthpiece for the right-wing.
As a leader in news reporting, do not be as predictable as Rush Limbaugh.

just the kind of comment i'd expect from a fanatic diehard republican cynic who can't stand the fact that he and his party have been totally rejected by American voters. i'm sorry media sources still give him the opportunity to spew his negativism and hatred and that there are still a lot of misguided sycophants who live their lives based on what this clown tells them they should think, say and do.

Limbaugh must have been too drugged up and high to remember that Hillary is a Liberals are UnAmerican, probably why he called out of work today, At least we were spared of a days worth of hate rhetorics

Why hasn't Bush fixed the economy yet? It should all be taken care of before Obama takes office. Why wait? I thought conservatives understood the economy! They should fix it now, why put us through all this?

Hey, Stupid Patriot…you continue to show your ignorance…and now that of your wife as well. The "Messiah" as you call him (those who respect the man call him President-Elect Obama), cannot fix the economy yet. He is not in charge you moron. The Repubs over the past 8-years have ruined our economy. Now, you and your lovely wife sit and spin on those facts. Fools.

Rush Limbaugh is a big fat pig.

Ah, Rush Limbaugh ! He dosen't have the top rated radio show At 20 million listeners for nothing!!!

Rush is truly irrelevant………I doubt President-Elect Obama cares nothing of what Rush thinks. He Rush is equally irrelevant as Bush, only one letter different…..Rush work on your health, it could use some care, both in mind and body…..

Seriously, you are still loading the blogs with these canned answers? And the fairness doctrine? Should we eliminate freedom of speech? You all won, now get jobs and stop spamming these articles.

Why , WHy , WHY does the media give SOOOO MUCH AIRSPACE AND FRONTLINES TO IDIOTS, THIS GUY IS NO ONE , NOTHING, SO WHY GIVE HIM PRESS TIME???? IF YOU HAVE THAT MUCH TIME TO WASTE CONTACT ME, I'LL ACT A FOOL FOR YOU AND TAKE UP ALL YOU PRESS TIME!!!!!!!!! ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!!!!

WHO IS RUSH LIMPBAUGH? I wonder who told him to say that? Because he is not capable to think for himself.

Hey Kelly, If I remember correctly I believe that there was rioting at the RNC. That's the only rioting I remember. I bet you think that it was just fine to do that though. You people are hypocrites. Let the man say what he wants, don't pay attention if you don't agree with him… I don't.

obama is choosing intellegent people because he knows what a terrible shape the republicans have gotten us into, it takes intellegence to run a country, i'm afraid that lets you out limbaugh.

Why would anyone care about what Rush Limbaugh says or thinks? The guy is neocon mouthpiece. That's all he is. Tomorrow he will be all over her criticising every move she makes. I cannot stand the guy, sorry!!

He's right on this one. Even a blind sow finds an acorn once in a while!!

Why do we care what he thinks?

iTS NICE TO SEE THAT HATEFUL PEEPS ON BOTH SIDES HAVE OPINIONS. REALLY FOLKS CANT YOU SEE THAT RATINGS DRIVE THESE PEOPLE AND NOT IDEALS. ITS JUST AS HATEFUL TO ATTACK THEM AS TO BE ATTACKED BY THEM. SHOULDNT EVERY ONE JUST "TRY AND GET ALONG" OR IS THAT A BAD CHOICE OF QUESTIONS SINCE FAIRNESS MUST ABOUND. ITS NO MORE FAIR FOR AIR AMERICA TO SPOUT THEIR SWILL THAN THESE RATINGS HOGS. BESIDES ISNT IT HYPOCRITICAL TO ASK FOR FREE SPEECH ONLY WHEN ITS YOUR FAVORITE TYPE. SHOULDNT EVERYONE JUST SUPPORT MR OBAMA AS FERVENTLY AS THEY SUPPORTED BUSH. I THOUGHT NOT. HYPOCRISY IS AN UGLY BEAST INDEED !!!!!!!!!!!!

Who gives a rat's rear end what Limbaugh thinks? He reminds me of a delusional alcoholic with dementia to boot. Trying as hard as ever to justify his ulta right wing, narrow minded philosphy with his arrogance and mega ego. When it comes to LImbaugh…I don't really believe HE believes half the things he says…It's all for show and profit. Hmmm… and in Limbaughs mind, that IS the American way.

Rush looks bloated. Maybe his bowels are backed up to his chin as a result of too many oxy-contin!

GalileoRad December 1st, 2008 5:47 pm ET

"Without Fairness and rules against personal attacks, I fear that right wing radio talkers will again take advantage of the short attention span of listeners and reposition themselves as the singular arbiters of truth."

So is it bad if its just the right wing talkers or do you place the same on progressive radio. How about MSNBC, newspapers. You dont think that liberals can be hateful and conduct personal attacks?

Don't know why anyone airs the ramblings of someone so out of it.

PS, I bet Rush doesn't know who actually said: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer". It's not an old saying……

I really wish that journalists would stop giving this purveyor of bigotry and hate any creedance by interviewing him on any topic at all.

I thought for a second that Rush started to think positively. I'm wrong again.

Rush,
Please move to Alaska with Palin and take Giuliani, O'Reily, and Hannity with you

Limbaugh – what a fat head. Go back to your right wing, evangelical idiot spouting bull that you are famous for.

Obama took down the Clinton machine, and the Republican machine. Rush, only you would be so stupid to think that a man with 4 years sitting at the helm of the country would have competition from Hillary in the 2012 election cycle. Perhaps it is from a drug-enduced stupor from which you are speaking?

WOW, he must really be ripped on vicodin.

Rush is a prime example of what is wrong with the repupublican party. if you cant slander them then scare the hell out of them.only in America {which does make you special] can a clown like that speak daily on a radio station.

Notice how the republicans always feel every move is motivated by politics. He never mentions or thinks that it could be good for the country. No wonder nothing got done in the last 8 year. All the focus was on politics never on policies.

Palin for PRESIDENT '12

the incumbent president is not the automatic nominee…..Remember when Ed Kennedy ran against Carter in the primary…

And Robert Kennedy would have run against LBJ had he not made that well statement:

"I will not seek, nor will I accept, my parties nomination for president…

Puh-leez…Its Political Strategy 101. PE Obama has shown from the very beginning by the way that he ran his campaign that he is politically astute, intelligent and capable of making pragmatic adn politically expedient decisions. It will take the ability to do both in order for him to navigate us out of these economically toxic waters and get our foreign policy back on track.

This is nothing new to those of us who supported him.

Right Wing Wacko!

Like quoting Carl Rove, you can be sure the comments here are disingenuous, dishonest, and designed to support opposition.

for the first time I agree with Rush. It makes sense to me. But, why then did Hillary accept ? If it is all to benefit Obama. Her desire to be part of this historic event ?

Some of these comments are hilarious! Definition of PHONY is Jesse Jackson crying the night Obama was elected after wanting Obama's nuts cut off just a few months earlier.

Hey, Demmies! You won! Be positive! Implement your "change" and quit being precoocupied with bashing the old Republican enemies. Is Rush not allowed to speak? Is this the kind of change we need?

THANKS BUT NO THANKS RUSH.
WHAT HAS HANNITY GOTTA SAY?

Who cares what Rush says? He's rapidly on his way to irrelevancy, anyway.

KEEP GOING RUSH!

Limbaugh – the true spokesman for close-minded neo's.

The question is: What would all these posters here say if it was a Democrat saying the exact same thing that Limbaugh said?

Rush is a big fat idiot, wait, somebody already used that.

So he urges support of Clinton to hurt Obama, then he urges support of Clinton to help Obama? What a strange, strange little man!

This is in accordance with the new Obama mantra "Change through Sameness." Apparently the only "Change" Mr. Obama wanted was Mr. Obama to be the one putting their feet up on the desk in the Oval Office. Everything else can be the same. That is still change, right?

As usual, Rush does not get it, never has, and I suppose he never will

Remember the Reagan-years commercials where "drugs have fried your brains?" Well, RL can be the poster child for a new campaign.

This man is more dangerous to our country than William Ayers.

Rush is a joke, who cares what he says. Hillary Clinton is a remarkable woman, and will be good at anything she does. However, Obama constantly proves he would do or say anything to get elected. I watched this morning, clip after clip of Obama saying how wrong Hillary Clinton was about foreign policy, and he also labeled her and her husband a racist during the campaign. Why would he now pick her for SOS, if he believed those things to be true. Those of us who supported HIllary Clinton knew the truth, but now Obama confirms it, with this appointment.

i guess most of the BO haters seem to forget that the message of change was about how things were done in DC and reversing tthe policy errors made by the Bush administration. Picking experienced, intelligent and admirable cabinet members to make this happen is CHANGE. He did not go for the 'yes sir' types that populated the Bush administration over the past eight years. Why do you care who he picks as long as the right job is getting done? If he had went for a cabinet of 'newbies or outsiders' the BO haters will find fault with that as well.

Flush Limbaugh

Clinton was a great pick because she will do a great job. Pure and simple. She has a tremendous work ethic and actually will put the country first, unlike some others. Who cares what Limbaugh says anyway? He is almost always wrong, and a mean person to boot.

I agree with the statement "Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer" Take the Clinton's out of the picture by putting them on the payroll.

This man is dumb that he is not aware that in all cases during primary elections, most incumbent presdents are the automatic nominee of their political party. There is no way Senator Clinton or any other democrat candidate would seek nomination in 2012.

Rush is so dumb.

One may not like what Rush said, but he has a point.

Wow, listen to you Rush haters…..I think this is a case of "thou doth protest too much". You probably didn't realize that electing our first "Green" President meant that we were going to get the "recycled" Clintons for the next 4-8 years.

If you thought you were going to get Change in the form of fresh new faces with fresh new ideas, you've been duped….it won't be the last time that a politician has pulls a "bait and switch".

Don't waste your print on this man!

" December 1st, 2008 4:42 pm ET

I am a little confused. Even if Obama didn't choose Hillary as the Secretary of State how could Hillary run for the nomination in 2012 as Obama will be the sitting President and Presidents are the automatic nominee?

Is it me or is Limbaugh off his rocker again?"

Uh,no, the sitting president is NOT the automatic nominee. Do you not remember 1992 when Bush Sr. had to run against several challengers?

this guy needs to be the next monkey we shoot into space

Hey Paul,

As a matter of fact, I lean to the left on many issues and I also listen to Rush Limbaugh on a fairly regular basis. That's why I feel uniquely qualified to tell you that your a moron.

That's straight from the golden EIB microphone you idiot.

Without Fairness and rules against personal attacks, I fear that right wing radio talkers will again take advantage of the short attention span of listeners and reposition themselves as the singular arbiters of truth. As one example, Limbaugh said last week that "conservatism was not on the ballot!" when attempting to explain the Republican loss. He doesn't want us to remember that conservatism and especially RIGHT WING TALK RADIO was vetted over the course of the primary season, which lasted a couple of years, and REPUDIATED by the American people. Never forget! Codify Fairness!

Mr. Limbaugh,
Do you honestly think that President-Elect Obama is insufficiently arrogant to think that since he overcame a 20+ point deficit in the primaries to beat Hillary Clinton, he can't do it again?

Thanks for playing..

Limbaugh is so stupid even my dog has better education than him

What a spiritual looser! A waist of life! This limblog of blubber glu glog. Like a white demon floating over this earth looking for trouble and hate, what a miserable life. What kinds of friends does he have- very curious to know. Are they miserable also? Dumb sheep don’t have anything on him.

No one with a functional brain cares what the fat doper says. WE know that he's a hypocrite and a total phoney.

Who cares!!!!
This guy flunked out of SE Missouri State in two semesters, and the only reason why he is famous is because he is a bigot who panders to the bitter white men and the religious nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rush just states the obvious. Wow, guess that is why he gets the big bucks. What? Is he trying to sound intelligent now or something? What a bag of hot air. Don't worry, he and his wacko right-wing followers will be doing plenty of Obama bashing soon……. Oh, forgot, they already started.

Wow! Listen to all of the Dems that are always saying that the Republicans are mean!

Does anyone care about this guy? Sometimes I see things in black and white in this country!

I recently heard that his name was changed to Douche Limbaugh. Fits, doesn't it?

If you're a democrat and you're criticizing Rush's comment on this you're just shooting yourself in the foot. Doubt many dems or obama worshippers are smart enough to realize that.

Who cares what that old windbag thinks…

Complain, complain, complain… that's all you'll read here.

Regardless of what anyone here thinks about Limbaugh, it was indeed a brilliant move by Obama. The chances of having socialized HillaryCare forced upon us are now also dead for 4 or 8 years.

Rush- you are a has been married to a has been ideology. We don't care about your opinion. but you are free to keep on speaking ; )

You lost my comment. I do not like that.

Why is his opinion worth listening to? He's a radio talk-show host, who never even graduated from college. From what I've heard from him, (and yes, I have listened to his show) he is often wrong on the issues and he continually weaves and bends the truth out of context.
I support his right to free speech, but it's hard to believe that any rational thinker would believe that he has any credibilty and that anyone would actually listen to him. If he wrote books instead of broadcasting on the radio, he would be in the fiction section of the library. It's just like some folks who get their serious news from the Daily Show. It's comedy, folks! Get it?

Limbaugh and Palin.
Phonies!!

Who cares what this jerk thinks????

Why do we even care what this moron has to say about anything. Other than supporting hate, fear and discrimination what has he ever done to contribute anything postive to society?

The Dow dove over 700 points today. Anyone thinking this was because of Hillary's appointment to Secretary of State today?

Don't care what Lush Dumbaugh has to say. Overrated.

The other brilliant thing Obama has done is gotten the names of all of the donors to Clinton's library. If Bill steps out of line, Obama's peeps can threaten to expose his corruption further. Outstanding work!

hometowndemocrat December 1st, 2008 4:40 pm ET

"The only people that care what Limbaugh says are people that do not have the ability to think for themselves."

Yes, and who have "dependant personalities" or who can not make choices of their own.

The Dow dove over 700 points today. Anyone thinking this was because of Hillary's appointment to Secretary of State today?

I agree, who cares what Rush thinks, says or does!!!!

Liar.

To Obama snorts coke,
Have you really thought about what change means? THINK FOR YOURSELF!

Why on earth is Barbara Walters having Rush on her program? He is as irritating as Elisabeth. The world would rather listen to a symphony of fingernails across a blackboard than listen to either of these two narrow minded repugs.
I fail to understand why the repugs, especially God fearing evangelicals–hang on to his every word. The Lord works in mysterious ways.
Seems stangely sick. An overweight druggy with a big mouth! Why is he relevant to anyone?
Rush ( and maybe Barbara) need to just go away.

Limbaugh and brilliant should never be used in the same sentance.

who cares!

does anyone care what this egotistical idiot thinks?

Most of you totally missed Rush Limbaugh's logic/wisdom. Did he say she would make a great Secretary of State, or did he mostly talk about the political implications of her selection? Personally I think there are probably dozens of Washington insiders who are more qualified than Hillary to be Secretary of State. This is obviously a political payoff for her not causing a fuss at the Demo convention.

limbaugh needs to get a real job. He is only brain washing the weak, and that is why Texas is a Republican State.

Maybe Rush should spend more of his time worrying about the DEA than spouting off his sciolist views. (if you think I mispelled the word, look it up.)

patriot:

what is wrong with you? How can Obama fix the economy before he officially becomes president of 1/20/09?

Just get use to Obama…..he will be around for 8 years as president….

At least Rush seems to understand that too…

Who cares what this pill popping addict thinks. He is a Republican who should mind his own party and leave running the country to the Democrats for a change.

Shut up. Empty vessel makes the most sound. Who cares what you think. Are you back on your drugs? We don't have to listen to know President Obama made the right selection.

I am sick and tired of this arrogant fool. CNN do you have better news?

Rush looking for attention as usual.

Nobody listens to this overweight, dope-addled blowhard anyway. He is a joke and a perfect example of why the far right ideologues will be in the wildnerness for the foreseeable future.

Hillary will be magnificent in any role she takes. Bella from NC in one of the comments above mentioned "Bullets." Interesting choice of words.
Mr. Obama has not yet taken the oath. I think there is a much better political role for Hillary in 2009 other than the Secretary of State.

Stay tuned, "it ain't over yet"

Don't know why they print anything Limbaugh says.

I think therefore I don't listen to Rush Limbaugh.

and all these peopl screaming choosing Hil is not change….are you telling me that choosing someone who is experienced in government is wrong? Change comes in the governing…..

I think Hillary should be our next President since 99% of the new people is Hillary people.

Go Hillary!

Why in the world would Barbara Walters be talking to Rush Limbaugh. She seems so much more elevated to be wallowing in the slime with Rush. Seems to me that there should be a law against telling millions of listeners to game the system and vote for Hillary as a ploy to create a fabricated outcome of the 2008 Democratic primaries. It seems the kind of thing that he would pickle anyone else for suggesting. I only actually heard Rush once when I was in a pick up truck with a dumb relative on a long trip. Rush was making fun of Barney Frank's speech impediment. A very nasty thing to be doing. It was lost on my dumb relative who didn't know who Barney Frank was. I have heared about other testy over the top shenanigans on his show and thank goodness I don't listen in.

To the so called 'Patriot',

The reason why the economy is not fixed yet is

a. OBAMA is the president-elect not the president yet
b. the messiah is still in heaven
c. your precious 'dubya' has screwed thing up just that bad i saw a clip if Bush him at some international summit half the leaders didn't want to shake our elected leaders hand. HOW PATHETIC AND WHAT A DISGRACE.

I don"t like these people…..they are trying to give democrats praise because they have an agenda……no one asked for their opinon…

Rush is just grasping for a way to stay relevant.

Paul:

How in the world do you know none of those you consider on the left never listen to his show?

Well, I've listened to Rush for years…….The man is racist!!! His words are full of hate and stupidity……..

I hope the new adminstration the junk he spews out off the air….

This fellow, along with Sean Hannity, creates a hateful envirnoment that reminds me of the those who followed the doctrine of Jim Crow…

That era is over!!!!

Rush Limbaugh raises a good point. Hopefully Hillary Clinton will stay out of the limelight for the next four years. This may be the reason why Obama picked Clinton.

If anybody thinks Hillary is going to save the day…….think again. I don't think anybody knows what's around the corner. Wait until Israel starts acting up. I am willing to predict that Hillary will hide in a corner and cry. Just like her husband, she doesn't have a stomach for foreign policy. Where is the change that Obama has been talking about?

It's amazing how the media is always prepared to cover right wing nuts who ironically says that the media has a left learning biased. I have not heard one main stream media news network report the rantings and ravings of a left winger.

Rush, Hannity, et al aren't concerned about Obama being a bad president and running the country into the ground…quite the opposite…if he is a great president, it further marginalizes them. If that happens, they can go home and spend their millions…

prancing sack of vomit

people like Limbaugh are what have kept our nation diviided for years and yet he still draws a crowd because there are so many that just have to have someone else tell them how to think or what to do…thus the term "ditto head" meaning the same. One difference between the left and right, the left can think and make decisions for them selves, the right need to listen to overpaid radio talk show hosts to help them think and seek their approval. I hope one thing that Obama does is bring back the Fairness Doctrine and that alone will have these right wing nut jobs that help divide our nation on the run.

Like anything he says is anything other than self serving….

Who cares what the druggie Rush has to say?

I truly hope everything went so badly for Obama so Hillary can quit and run against him in 2012.

Hillary or Bobby Jindal 2012!

patriot, instead of asking why "the messiah" hasn't fixed the economy yet, maybe you should ask why Bush still hasn't – he is the president after all. I know you can't wait to start blaming Obama, but you should wait until he is at least sworn into office.

who cares what this blowhard pill popper has to say. he a nut case for sure.

This comment pretty much establishes Limbaugh's priorities. He care less about the value of Clinton as Secretart of State than he does the supposed "neutralization" of her as a political opponent. For this pompous windbag, political conflict, or the appearance of it is all that is important. What happens for the good of the nation or its people isn't anywhere on his rader screen.

jean- Exactly. He is an entertainer. Simple as that. By the way are you that jean?

HEY WELCOME TO THE OBAMA SHOW: YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS CAUSE PRESIDENT OBAMA WON AND MCCAIN LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHA

Good news would be if he choked on his cigar while it was lit,the bad news would be if he lived.

Limbaugh – why not just SHUT UP????

You are soooo a has-been, you are terrified you won't be significant anymore.

It is time to say Sayonara, buddy.

You know what? Nobody gives a crap what Limbaugh thinks. NOBODY has done as much damage to this country through it's electorate or divided it against itself as much as Rush. He think his input is helpful? I call it treasonous. Retire already fat boy….we don't need you anymore.

jean- Exactly. He is an entertainer. Simple as that.

Rush should keep his trap closed as average people don't care what he thinks.

As far as Senator Clinton's appointment goes; she is well qualified for the position.

I believe President-elect Obama and Senator Clinton had a long heart to heart chat and he offered her a post she feels most comfortable taking, while having the highest exposure.

This is not a fewd or a pay back but it is for a better America AND she did not have to accept a post but did so because she wants to work for Americans. The nomination process is over and it is time to go forward.

I don't understand how Rush Limbaugh's opinion on ANYTHING could be newsworthy. Must be a reaaaaaallly slow day at CNN. This is great news for Rush because he loves nothing more than controversy and fireworks and The Clinton Family has been to Rush what George Bush has been for comedians for the last eight years. In the meantime, he's still obsessed with Obama's birth certificate and not at all interested in doing whatever it takes to making this country great. He's a worthless rabble-rouser and the only constructive thing he's accomplished was helping split the Republican Party into two dubious factions of nincompoops.

Barack and Hillary are grown ups, Rush! You wouldn't understand. Go pop another handful of pills.

Please…this guy needs to take a long walk off a short pier wearing cement shoes.

to WELCOME TO THE OBAMA SHOW:

I'll tell you who won the election.. the democratic party… in a sweep across the country. That's the change.. now deal with it.

The man hasn't even been sworn in yet and already everyone's screaming where's the change. You people are like south park characters.

HEY REPUBLICAN LOSERS,

WHEN OBAMA SAID HE WAS ABOUT CHANGE, HE DIDN'T MEAN FROM THE CLINTON YEARS JUST THE LAST CRAPPY EIGHT WITH BUSH! GOT IT NOW? I KNOW IT'S HARD TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING R-I-G-H-T IN YOUR FACE SO YOUR EXCUSED!

I tuned into Rush the other day… his logic is sounding so convoluted nowadays… he's got a very bright mind and has carved a hefty piece of American right wing pie for himself… but his heydays are over… he stuck his feather in the Bush/McCain/Palin hat…. and now he's tripping over himself and sounding down right silly….

Unbelievable as to how many of you feel compelled to point out Rush's past problem with pain killers. Yet, none of you seem to have a problem with the Kennedy's (Teddy and Patrick) alcohol and drug addictions. Rush is a radio guy and the "Great" Kennedy's are actual legislators. Can you see the hypocrisy of your ridiculous statements? My guess is no. By the way, Rush is right on the money on this one. How many of you sheep really believe President Elect Barry Obama likes Hillary after the way she went after him in the primaries? Grow up!

If everything went soo badly for Obama,I hope is will and Hillary can quit and run against him in 2012 and she will have my support all over again.

Hillary 2012 or Bobby Jindal 2012 for me.

NOBAMA!

If Rush said it then it is just plain stupid! I don't know why you would even waste space to repeat something that fat man says!

Patriot wants to know why PE Obama hasn't fixed the economy yet. Maybe because he is NOT president yet. Idiocy does not a "patriot" make!

Suspect that Mrs Cllinton winds up on the Supreme Court before 2012.

Rush is a JOKE! How many more divorces and drugs can this guy do before he stops talking?

Rush is a BAND.

This is unreal CNN. Who gives a donkey's behind what Rush Limbaugh says or thinks? This is news?? The man should just keep taking his drugs and imagining he gets to spend the night with Sarah.

cnn is a liberal network . not worth a dam.god help us get through this terrible election. liberalism is a incurable desease.

Rush is the mouthpiece for the devil, hiding behind the religious right.

How do you spell "irrelevant"? Limbaugh is nothing but a legend in his own mind.

Why does media cover:

Ann Coutler
Al Sharpton
Jesse Jackson, Jr.
Rush Limbaugh
Mark Halperin – yes Mark
Pat and Bay B.
Sean Hannity
Bill O'Reilly

Granted some are in the media, but who are they? Their opinions are dated, small-minded, and petty. A divisive group.

Entertainment one supposes – overpaid blowhards that separate America.

not so brilliant. she could have said no. and obama may be obliged to give her his endorsement in 2012/16

The thing that sickens me is that he's actually right.. but I'm sure Obama picked Clinton for more reasons than just keeping your enemies close. I really don't see Obama and Clinton as enemies in any way. They really had the exact same platforms in their campaigns.. with just slight variations. And I personally think Hillary will do a great job as Sec. of State.

Why would anyone care what Rush Limbaugh thinks? Is he out of rehab already?

I can has relevant? Noes. Epic Fail.

Franken was so right when he titled his book "Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot"

Rush seems to have all the answers and expertise on fixing this country. Why doesn't he run?…

Rush seemed to miss that we voted Obama because many supporters recognized his brilliance a long time ago. Kudos to Clinton for getting even Limbaugh to catch up.

Sorry Dem-wits but Rush is right again and you twits know it.

Then again, maybe he does have a lightbulb flicker in his nutshell of a head.
He calls Obama brilliant, and Clinton Presidential.

I want to call his show tomorrow and congratulate him.

Does anyone know the call number?

"Even if Obama didn't choose Hillary as the Secretary of State how could Hillary run for the nomination in 2012 as Obama will be the sitting President and Presidents are the automatic nominee?"

No, the sitting President is not the automatic nominee. Anyone from the incumbent party can still run. Usually though the President runs unopposed. It usually looks bad for members of your own party to run against you.

Didn't need Rush to tell me that. Knew it from the get go.
The puppet has named his masters. They're baaaack. lol
You don't believe drug users? Does that go for Bill and Barack too?
Hope you never have to have surgery and take legal pain killers.
What the heck you think JFK was taking all those years?
If Rush had a D behind his name you'd think he was the greatest thing since Keith and Chris.
Lighten up. It will make you bitter people feel better.

Why do we care what this pillow-stomach, racist pig says! He's a gutless coward who is seeing his ratings collapse because people like him and those other conservative know-nothings at Fox have nothing to offer. He's irrelevant, and so is the so-called chrsitian right.

Hey fat boy, go back and talk about the "war on christmas", or some other stupid topic.

I'm so glad America did exactly opposite of what Rush wanted–they voted for Barack. Oh happy day.

Bob in LA –

Very good point!

He's disgusting and his opinion of Obama's choices is not news. Moving right along …

And that's why I hung around with Ayers and Wright, to get a different point of view he added.

Change you can believe in! I've got something to sell you if you believe in change.

All you liberal wackos, do you realize that Rush has the largest radio contract in the history of radio contracts? Doesn't that say something? Funny how you all think that you are a majority. Obama was an anti-Bush vote – plain and simple. And Rush is correct.

What can I say. He's still the same Limpbahumbug. Instead of calling him Rush, I'd like to call him Shush.

who really gives a ratz rear about what Rush thinks from his fuzzy brain.

OH this guy is just a laughable moron in a rainbow clown wig. The man has no credibility whatsoever and is just a pitiful fool who only remembers his name because people yack at him all day. And "I hate hypocrits" wow are you the very name that you use. I always get a kick out of simpletons like you who hold this false humility. You're here every day posting too so cut the crap my man. People call Limblob for what he is and if you can't take it, like how you and others of your ilk who are acting like little kids in a sandbox after you had your collective rears routed last month, sit down and be quiet. Right wingers like you have that stalker mentality while criticizing others who don't hold your bizzaro ideals, you put on this phony sense of intelligence and pathetically look down on others when in reality we're looking down on you, Limbaugh, Hannity and the other facist big mouthed filth. But please, by all means continue to rant and howl at the moon because you are a perfect example of why a majority of this country has ejected trash like your candidate.

no, Andy H–you are absolutely right.

Stop the ignorance and the Insanity!

Obama will not be challenged by another Democrat in 2012.
I am so sick of hearing this.

Don't suppose all those commentors deriding Limbaugh about drugs and alcohol are clean, eh? And hey, he gets paid millions for his opinion. Us? Nothing. Don't particularly like him myself but I won't call for his ouster: I'll just turn the radio to another channel.

Why does ANYONE care what this guys thinks?

No one carries what Limp says about anything!!!!

Does someone besides the media care about what this idiot thinks?

Andy H,

Sitting presidents are not given an automatic nomination. The Republican and Democratic primaries still take place. The questions is whether anyone from their political party will challenge an incumbent president. Knowing that half of all registered Democrats voted for her, Hillary had a very good motivation to seek the nomination again, especially if B.O.'s 1st term is not stellar.
She could then say "See, I told you he wasn't experienced enough."
Now, even if he doesn't do very well, she can't quite say that — she'll be part of the policy setting (at least as far as foreign policy).
Either way — I for one am glad to know she will be part of his administration. I voted for HIllary, and still believe she is better suited to be POTUS than he is. How can he say she has no foreign policy experience during the primaries and then nominate her for SoS?
….just another politician…. wake up Obama-bots

CLINTON is NOT going to challenge Obama in 2012 under any circumstances.
that is crazy! Obama would have to resign for another Democrat to run in 2012. It just doesnt happen at the national level–for Rush not to get that…well, never mind.

The only people dumber than Rush are his listeners.

Sorry, Layne. I am one of those "Hillary or nothing" fans who still won't get behind him. His pick of Senator Clinton does nothing to change my opinion that he is like the emperor with no clothes.

Hurley Cable,
I have to agree with you, the man is more interested in the drama than forwarding the country. I threw up in mouth a little when I had to admit that he is right on this one though.

And to WELCOME TO THE OBAMA SHOW….yeah there may be a lot of old timers in Obama's cabinet (as the case with most newly elected presidents) but who makes the final decisions? President Barack Obama!

talk show host are follish, and this Limbaugh is a try to be trouble maker he is just MOUTH. TO MUCH MOUTH

advice out of the mouth of a drug addict…..ummmm

Clinton has no foreign policy experience–except with the EU.
We need a Secretary of State–who can negotiate eyeball to eyeball with the Muslims. A man would have been better in this time in history if BOM really expected to make headway w/ the Saudi's, Muslim states–and especially Iran.

2012 is a long way off. I can't believe people are even talking about it. Let the next 4 years happen first.

I love the shoot-the-messenger comments here. Rush is right. Even if you hate Hillary, she is very qualified to be Secretary of State.

Its brilliant because It give Rush an ez target for the next 4 yrs…

Oh please, that loud mouths opinion is about as useful as Dick Cheney's endorsement of John McCain. Why are people still putting a microphone in front of him. He never has anything sane or valuable to say. Since the Bush family is packing for their move, can't they put Limbaugh in a trunk and store him somewhere until Halloween? They can threaten to let him out to scare neighborhood children.

Why should we care what a radio talk show host thinks

How close should society keep you Limbaugh? You are every man's enemy, you pompous a…..

Rush now lives in Palinworld with the rest of the headless turkeys.

he missed a reason for her to take it.
If in two years, his policies and foreign relations are bad, she can quit and run against him without it being a spit in the face of an incumbant and she will have the extra foreign experience some said she lacked.
Hillary is one of the best political minds this country has whether you agree with her views or not.

Dear CNN,
What ever RUSH says is NOT news but is usually a lie. More Drugs, Alcohol and propaganda anyone? ………….

Not for me thanks!

Hey Limbaugh,

Are you drinking something??? or you are moving toward left
maybe now you realize that there is nothing left on right side. this is a
1st time in my entire life i heard something good from your loud/ugly
mouth. for that i got a give you Thums up.

can air force one jam his signal?

Rush is right…again. Where is the change???

Rush Limbaugh could improve his personality 100% if he had his tongue cut out.

A broken watch is still right twice a day.

I asked my wife why the messiah hasn't fixed the economy yet. She is not political so I figured I could get an unbiased response. Her response, the Clintons haven't given him permission. HAHAHAHAHA, now that's change.

Rush the Dip just can't seem to fathom that Obama may have picked her because she is the most qualified. Typical Old School Republican attitude that there has to be some "political" motive behind everything. Exactly the kind of politics the people want changed.

Wow! I can't believe the venom coming from all of you left wing nut jobs!
What ever happened to the mantra of the Left, the party of inclusion, Tolerance and Peace? Not one of you have ever listened to his show, and yet you all feel qualified to have these hateful responses…..

This must be Rush's idea of a self-imposed Fairness Doctrine. In other words, he knows he is going to be relegated to the loony bin unless he starts pandering to the entire country like he has pandered the extreme right all these years. Too bad (for him) that America has woken up from the nightmare of the Republicans. I just saw GOP Sen Ensign on CNN saying that the answer to the recession is "more corporate tax cuts". Just unreal. Corporate welfare is what got us IN this mess in the first place. The GOP is truly bankrupt in every way. Watching Rush paint himself as some sort of pragmatic centrist is absolutely the Right's coup de gras. Good luck in the wilderness losers. And thanks for nothing.

Limbaugh has done more to divide this country than he is worth. Maybe he should just go back to telling people to cut down old growth trees, burn large amounts of fuel in their suvs and pickups and let us all know there is no such thing as man made global warming! This man is a serious joke!

You all may not like Rush, but he got more money than all of you posters combined and that's a fact! How many of you posters here are UNEMPLOYED, ON WELFARE, OR SUCKING UP TO YOUR PARENTS? I bet a whole of ya! LMAO!

Can "the Rushster" get any more shallow?

to Layne – brilliant!
"The disturbing thing is that he's putting the very woman whose foreign policy experience he previously derided in charge of US foreign policy. "

It is amazing to me that the average Obama supporter has so short a memory. Was Obama lying then or now?

He said whatever he thought would sound good or get the Haters going. This guy will take some watching in office! I hope the media is up to this. That will keep him honest in office and maybe he can deliver on some of the wild promises.

Who gives a freakin' flip what that turd thinks about anything worth knowing? Now if I want to know where to get some good prescription drugs, where to get a prostitute in Mexico, how to treat syphillis, how to get illegal cigars, or how to tell lies about political opponents (and they are legion for mr. dittohead), then he might be the one to talk to.

Welcome to Obama Show,

please take your moronic statements somewhere else. President Obama is selecting the most competent people to lead this country. Who cares if they served under Clinton or Bush? He is keeping the Defense Secretary in his post, because he is competent at his job. What did you think change means? Change from the previous policies and cronyism.

I have a feeling the republicans have some tricks up their sleeves. All of a sudden, every Republican is just loving what Obama is doing. Every pick is just great. They are just saving up their bullets, I think. I don't buy it for one minute.

WELCOME TO THE OBAMA SHOW and all others who lack understanding: Newsflash – the change comes through PEOTUS Obama. Go find a clue.

Read Rush's remarks very carefully. He did not say that HRC was a great candidate for SoS. He just said that this was a good maneuver for Obama to protect himself from long-term sabotage. Remembering how Rush and his "conservative" rabble-rousing colleagues demonized HRC for a long time, I can't help but think he's musing how having clinton in the cabinet gives them a target to blast at ("the great enabler",corrupt, etc) as well as raise the question: Change? What Change? Yes, the right-wing-nuts have got to be pleased!

Yep, typical hate spewing liberals. Call for everyone else to be tolerant but spew hate at anyone who disagrees with you. And then call what ever anyone else says "hate speech" HIPPOCRITES!!!!!!

Rush is the mouthpiece for the devil, hiding behind the religious right!

Give it up Rush, your guy lost…go pop some more pills to kill the pain

Is this cartoon character worth any (whatsoever) press attention… Is the press that desperate to "create" news? Get a grip! Write the headlines like the should be written:

Drug Addict calls Obama's selection of Clinton 'a brilliant stroke'

When the Fathead Twins (Rove and Limbaugh) are praising you, watch your back!!

Limbaugh is truly an expert at pulling cards from the bottom of the deck. Supposing Mr. Limbaugh that Joe Biden doesn't stay on the ticket in 2012 (or anytime) and Hillary is selected as veep or running mate for PE Obama. What would that do for her chances in 2016. That would that also keep Palin in the deep freeze at least until Hillary, following Obama, has completed 2 terms as president by 2024. That's of course if you want to speculate. By then, Ms Clinton would probably be the most informed, qualified and capable person to ever run for President.

who cares what Limbaugh thinks? His rationale seems to be solely political as oppose to Hillary just being a good choice.

We don't need your comments Rush….

Your remarks are just not good for me…..

First off Limbaugh likes to hear himself talk, and second this was a great pick because she is qualified. No one in the same party would run against an incumbent president….this isn't 1980.

Rush. As usual, his comments are filled with arsenic. Can't he just go away.

Does anybody care what this fool has to say……every time he opens his big mouth nothing but hot air comes out.
What a pity Obama couldn't give him a job on a remote island somewhere……or ship him off to the Bermuda Triangle in the hope he just disappears!!!

Well… Hillary Clinton is more of a friend to Obama than an enemy, so this ole' saying being borrowed by Limbaugh for this purpose really doesn't apply. This is really just Limbaugh being Limbaugh – i.e. giving disguised praise for the selection of HRC as SoS while simulataneously giving insult to the Dem establishment that he despises so much.

Except for those on the far right, who cares what he thinks. He thought the right would hold on to congress in 2006,he thought the games he played would defeat Obama during the primaries and he thought McCain would win in November. Really, who cares!

You Democrats elected Obama who admitted to using drugs also.

Limbaugh's only got it half right. Betcha it was "sold" as prep for 2016: first woman President with Senate and foreign policy credentials.

I couldn't care less what this guy thinks. Please go somewhere and sit down.

According to Rush, if keeping your enemies closer is brilliant, then by definition Bush and the Republican party are not brilliant.

Nobody cares what limbaugh thinks anymore. The mean-spirited lies he wants to keep feeding his radio show listeners are yesterday's news.

The people we see Obama appointing to his cabinet (Clinton, Jones, Gates, Napolitano, et al.), as well as Obama himself, are a million times more intelligent, and more concerned with the advancement of our country than limbaugh is.

He is a total fool!

Clinton is not going to run against an incumbent President from the same Party; even if she stayed in the Senate—
I am floored at how many people are so AFRAID of her that they would think that.! Totally ridiculous.

But, at least he acknowledges that she is Presidential material to consider running again.

He owes his success to all the people who are dumber than him–dumb enough to listen to his show. Nothing short of frightful!

I am sure this was a great strategic choice for the New President. Well played. Now lets work on the promise of bringing home the troops. Not later, not in a year, this January.

What Anti-Americans like Limbaugh don't understand is that both Obama and Clinton have the nation's welfare as the #1 priority. They both sacrificed in this decision but did so because we need the best now.

So for someone like Limbaugh, who can't fathom anything more important than himself, he has to attach Republican tactics to it to make it believable to himself.

I usede to hate Limbaugh…now I just pity him for the human he has chosen to be.

Love it. All the Demoncrat comments here are focusing on Rush rather than on the fact that Clintonistas now form the majority of Comrade Obummer's cabinet and agency picks. You know, the Obummer that got elected by the liberal left based on the "CHANGE" mantra. Can you say "blindsided", boys and girls? That'll teach you to trust a fellow leftist liberal. Unfortunately the rest of us are stuck with him for four years….at least the 2010 elections will remove the Demoncrats from power in Congress, just like 1994.

And who cares about what this moron thinks? Oh right, his crowd of even dumber "dittoheads."

WELCOME TO THE OBAMA SHOW December 1st, 2008 4:43 pm ET
HEY OBAMA SUPPORTERS,
——————————————————–
LOL,,,,, Small mind, BIG LETTERS!
You're a deep thinker, you are. Keep writing those upper case diatribes, PLEASE! They call attention to your stupidity.
Actually, if you had the intellect to look beyond the superficial, you could see that Obama has brought the best of the last administration that actually worked and those who are most effective from the current administration together to tackle the huge problems we face.
You should really try and get beyond the "Limbaugh" mentality and picture a world where the best, most creative minds work towards a common goal. That would be "the betterment of our country", in case you couldn't think of anything.

This tells more about Limbaugh than Obama. Clinton was picked not to keep her from running in 2012, but because she is a great person for the job! She brings organization, prestige and skill to a position hampered by W's lack of interest in diplomacy.
His likely pick of Gates to remain at the DOD and backing of Lieberman to keep his chairmanship, show a desire together a effective bi partisan team. Shame on you Rush for injecting your bias into everything.

I am a conservative but I couldn't care less about what that arrogant bag of hot air has to say.

this isn't an endorsement…

Any one really care what this bozo thinks? He is a white supremacist and his radio show is a hate propaganda tool. You people who listen to him avidly should be ashamed of yourselves.

Welcome to the Obama show

It doesn't matter who Obama has on his team. He will be running the show. Obama will make the final decisions

Just typical Rush…rushing to make a comment about something he knows little about. He has to say SOMETHING, you know, just to stay in the limelight.

I'm hoping that the selection of Cabinet members and staff that President Elect Obama has made will give us a good chance to recover from the last 8 years, but as PE Obama said on election night, it is going to take all of us working as the UNITED States to resolve the huge issues facing us. We don't need more devisive tactics or there won't be a country for the GOP to fight to regain in 2016!

Limbaugh is so cynical that he simply can't accept the possibility that ANYTHING in Washington is done out of a gesture of friendship instead of political gain. Newsflash, Rush: Just because that's how YOUR party operates, doesn't mean that's how Barack Obama operates.

I Have OFFICIALLY AGREED With Rush For The First Time In My Life And Now I Feel A Little Sick! I Never Knew What Bile Tasted Like Until Now!

Why media outlets continue to give this giant bag of …. any press is completely beyond me.

He's a hypocrit and my dogs are more intelligent than this "person".

He, along with Sean Hannity, are poster children for why the Republican party failed to win this and many elections this cycle – you can only pander to ignorance for so long and expect the desired results – the problem is these two buffons are the most ignorant, self-serving of the lot.

Yes now we finally stop hearing all of the paid Rush Limbaugh fanatics working for the GOP posing as "Clinton Democrats voting for McCain".

Obama asked Hillary to be on the team because she's talented, not because he's trying to kill her chances in 2012.

Limbaugh is still as delusional as ever. His devisive style of politiking is yesterday's news. That he doesn't get that point, speaks volumes.

Who cares what that sagging old hockey puck thinks? This isn't news. Not even gossip.

Hillary as US State Secretary????She can't even watch Bill doing some stupid things in the white house, now she's going to watch our country???Wow !!! I dont know, let me cross my finger.

the title to al franken's book still applies to this pompous, self righteous, drug addled hypocrite.
strong comment to follow.

Although you're right. It is a brilliant stroke. Barack Obama is a BRILLIANT guy and I know God is helping him because of many many prayers.

i wonder if Rush was high when he said that…. but then again, with a name like Rush, he probably always high..lol

he is still irrelevant as always

OMG has hell frozen over, drug addict Rush Limbaugh gives a compliment to Obama. What's next ,Sean Hannity vowing silence for the next 4 years?

Why does his opinion matter? Limbaugh will say anything if it will help his cause. Limbaugh represents a group of people in this country who will say anything in order for their side to win.

Nice try, but he's wrong. If Hillary decides she really wants to run in 2012, she can resign her post and go ahead and run. Welcome to reality, Rush.

The idea that Obama chose Hillary for SOS for political reasons is ridiculous. He chose her for the same reason he chose the rest of his cabinet and advisors…..talent! He wants to be surrounded and advised by intelligent people who can be trusted to do their jobs very, very well.

Why does CNN legitimize this gas bag by reporting anything he says as news worthy?
He's a biased radio talk show host for crying out loud!

HEY CNN HOW'S ABOUT PUBLISHING MY POLITICAL OPINIONS. THEY HAVE AS MUCH VALIDITY AS RUSH LIMBAUGH'S!

Speaking of a "brilliant stroke…" Oh, who am I kidding…god would never listen to that prayer!

Obama didn't pick Hillary as Secretary of State to keep her from running in 2012. He picked her because he really thinks she is the best person for the job. No one has more clout worldwide than Hillary does right now.

Rush is wrong. When was the last time an incumbent president had a challenge from someone in their own party while running for re-election? It just doesn't happen that often.

If Hillary decides to run again, it will be in 2016. Being SoS is just adding to her qualifications. If Obama is a good president and Hillary is a good SoS, she will be a lock in 2016.

Layne December 1st, 2008 4:54 pm ET

It is a brilliant move….

I have to agree with you (although I suspect you do not agree with me) he is BRILLIANT!

By doing this he has managed to take the liar hilalry OUT of the Senate, and once she has shown herself to be incapable of doing the job as SOS or tries to upstage him or her idiot husband does ANYTHING stupid (within 6 months is my guess) he simply fires her now she is out of the senate AND out of the Government completely and we do not have to hear about the liar hiallary again for a LONG time say 2016 when she has learned her lesson

Brilliant man!

There is no reason this should have been reported. Who cares what Rush the Pill Head thinks. He is irrelevant and will use any Clinton news to get his fat head on camera.

Maybe it's the drugs talking.

Wow! I bet Obama feels a lot better, Rush, now that he's gotten kudos from a drug-soaked, jaba-the-hutt radio personality! America is safer!!! Rush Limbaugh is pleased!

Rush needs to go to Alaska with Sarah….

Rush is about a nothing. This guy lives on vicodin and other drugs and he sits in judgement of everyone else. People that even listen to him or these right wingers are brain dead. Some people live too long.

Andy H – Sitting presidents do often get the nod but there is no rule that says it has to be so.

Crazy Canuck – I am pretty sure that Rush knows just a wee bit more about politics than you do.

I hate to laugh at the pig jokes…. *LOL* but they do come off as funny right now!

I love that old one…. "If you lie down with pigs, don't be surprised when you get up smelling like a hog!" I believe that Limbaugh does come off smelling extremely hoggish! *LOL*

rush is right what else is new?obama is an idiot start dealing with it. He is already proving to be the dumbest yahoo ever to disgrace the white house

Obama's choice of Hillary is Brilliant. Hillary may not run in 2012, however, Obama may continue in the White House for a second term. That would guarantee a Democrat in the White House, while also expanding Hillary's very experienced path into office even further by being Secretary of State. I think it's a win-win step forward to all of us. To the country, to both Obama and Hillary and to the Democratic party.
In 2016, however, it's another story. Hillary may run then, marking a historic win for Democrats in the White House for 3 full terms in a roll, while uniting this country and bringing us back from the wrong path we've been led to.

Limbaugh continues his divisive thinking. Obama's not choosing people for political reasons; he's doing so to get this country out of the ditch the Repubs (like Limbaugh) drove us into. Please boycott advertisers supporting Limbaugh's show and website. Who knows how we can start a boycott?

Actually the current crop of moderate cabinet appointments are designed to bring Barack over the 2010 mid-term election hump. All of them have a limited "shelf-life" Hillary will be out of a job in 2011 and ready to challege Obama.

Cape Girardeau Fats thinks Hillary's appointment to Sec. of State is a "brilliant stroke."

Yeah, right!!! You can count on the sincerity of THAT accolade.

Just like I think McCain's choosing The Maid of Moose Snot as his VP was a "brilliant stroke."

Seems as if the "Schadenfreude" are blooming a bit early this season.

Why should anyone listen to this spawn of Satan? Get thee behind me and go back to whence thou came from.

Who cares with, what, that " crack-head, right-wing-nut." Has to say. He has no credibility what-so-ever…………………………..

I think it is time Americans boycott Rush's sponsors to curtail this hatemonger.

Sounds like a good comment since we are about to have the Chicago bunch running the country.

doesn't rush make you wish there were amendments to the freedom of speach? may be we would call it the shut-the-stupid-off amendment.

I'm going to ask the same question I asked when Rove approved of the economic team—-

Is it a bad sign when Satan things you're doing a good job?

She has zero experience…. this is a brilliant pick? Oh but then if Limbaugh says it, the opposite must be true…. Seinfeld's bizarro world.

Hillary will be a disaster…..

'HEY OBAMA SUPPORTERS,

HOW ABOUT THAT CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE IT HILLARY AS SECRETARY OF STATE AND PREDOMINATELY ALL CLINTON PEOPLE AS STAFF!!!!!!!!!!

NOW WHO DID YOU SAY WON THIS ELECTION???????'

We won this election, WTTOS. You obviously are still pretty bitter from Nov. 4th. In any case, change comes from the policies enacted, not from the faces you see in Obama's cabinet. If all the people that Obama is picking is the reason why Bill had such a good 8 years economically, then I say keep pickin' 'em.

If you can't stand Obama so much, then by all means, reject that tax cut he'll be offering to 95% of us.

Why do we care what this blood sucking partisan has to say again?

Although this does not relate to this topic, I felt compelled to say something about the news of Sarah Palin campaigning for the Governor of Georgia that CNN has been flashing on its page as if our lives depended on it. The stock market plunged 680 points today, the country is going down the drain, and the news of those two irrelevant losers are the most noteworthy news of the day? Enough already of this woman. She is shoved down our throat day in a day out. She did not run for the presidency, and the ticket she was on lost. Get a grip. She needs to go back from where she came from, which is nowhere.

Jerk!!!!!!

I miss Sarah Palin

"…effectively ruling out a primary challenge in four years…"

So Obama is only picking Hillary because he doesn't want the threat of a challenge in 4 years. Nothing to do with Hillary's capabilities. Or the prospect that Obama's administration will be a successful one and there won't be a challenger to the incumbent.

Paraphrasing Keith Olbermann: Comedian Rush Limbaugh today's worst person in the wooorrrrlllld.

fact that Rush is a multi millionaire is testimony that there is a sucker born every minute. How can a useless donkey like him make money talking trash day in and day out?

Ms. Clinton will be dictating foreign policy, and Mr. O'bama will not be able to control her.

He will regret this appointment.

If Limbaugh gives this nomination a nod . . . we need to mindful of what calculation is going on in his head!

looking at the comments, it would appear 80-90 percent of CNN.com readers are from the left. what a shock…

Dirtbaugh.

Hey loveable liberal- A hell of a lot more people care what rush say's than what you or the Clintons have to say!! Why?

1.-you are a cool aid drinker
2.-he is the worst president since the last democrat before him-carter
3.-she would be backstabbing obama for 4 years if he had not picked her for this position. I agree with Rush. Brilliant move!!

It is a brilliant move. By including her in his team, he picks up all those "Hillary or nothing" fans who wouldn't vote for him before. He is solidifying his base in the party.

The disturbing thing is that he's putting the very woman whose foreign policy experience he previously derided in charge of US foreign policy. Obama should be picking the best person for the job, not making political maneuvers.

Rush – always stoking the fire. I was almost proud to hear the compliment, until I read the other comments. Can't you just give a positive comment without the jab?

Please….just disappear Rush. You're washed up.

Limbaugh is his own worst enemy that destroys himself in drugs and alcohol, who cares what he says.

You are absolutely correct, Jean!

Now, before I spit up in my mouth, I must try to finish reading the other comments…. *LOL*

This only proves that even a moron can have a sensible thought from time to time…. he's still a jerk.

As if he would know from brilliant.

I'm not in favor of censorship but this man is dangerous to our country. It scares me that so many people listen and fully believe everything that spews from his mouth. This is the man who called for rioting and violence at the DNC.

Hidden under the guise of a "true patriot," Limbaugh is probably the least patriotic person in this country.

Like I care about what this joker has to say about anything. He is a first rate jerk and should be off the air.

I really don't care what Rush thinks. His fifteen minutes is WAYYYYYYYY overdue!

Why even report on what this guy thinks?

Please CNN, you are one of the best out there – you have to pick and chose who to report on…. and you should stay away from reporting on drug addicts and losers… they do NOT add any value to our lives.

If Prez-Elect Obama was worried about a threat in 2012, he would have nominated Sarah Palin.

I think Limbaugh is a brillaint businessman. He knew their was a market for mindless right wing hate speech and that millions of idiotic listeners out there would devour everyone of his disgusting words. Limbaugh makes 30 million a year and has 20 million brainless followers.

For years Limbaugh ranted against soft sentences for drug offenders while he himself was a user.

Don't blame Limbaugh, blame his audience.

Say what you will, Rush is right. And as to change, what change??? Better yet, you don't hear about the "change" angle mentioned much on the networks anymore, do you? Where's Chris Matthews on this?

The drug addict has spoken!!

No, porker Limbaugh, you're not going to sleaze your way outta this. You are going to be held responsible for the hate; devisiveness and lies you have spread to benefit the wealthy Republican criminal elite who have plundered and destroyed this nation's wealth. You don't have the slightest idea what it means to be an American.

I personally hope you end up sleeping in a cardboard box in an alley, selling yourself to feed your oxycontin habit.

Rush and the rest of those right wing nut bags,
are responsible for the last 8yrs by spreading their fear and smear and straight up lies!

thank god Americans have woken up to this nightmare.
What more could bush and republicians do ti America?
that sends chills up my spine!

I hope these guys will drop off the face of the earth, never to be heard from again.

or a slow lingering ride into irrelvance.
t

Who cares what this fat drug abusing idiot thinks?

As if he's something important, except maybe in his own burned-out mind………….

And can anyone please explain to me what foreign relations or governmental experience this media clown has that would qualify ANY of his opinions as important? I'm always amazed ANYONE cares what his opinion is — it certainly never has anything to do with reality.

And why are we quoting Rush Limbaugh, pray tell?

The man is repugnant! As he said on Larry King when asked about presenting lies as truth so many years ago, "I am not about Truth! I'm about entertainment!"

For shame, CNN, this is far, far beneath you to treat this buffoon as someone worth noting! I expect better of you…..

only kidding, CNN! NOT! Oh, my, I have been around children too long! *LOL*

I never thought I'd live to see the day when I actually agree with the likes of Rush Limburger.

He's right, though: she'll NEVER be able to run in 2012. Not that she'd win anyway, people in this country are 'Clintoned' out, we don't wanna see that woman in 4 years.

Oh great, Rush gives his approval! All is well now! What a clown!

NO LIMBAUGH and certainly NO PALIN!!! I am a 40 year long republican and these two have tried to destroy the republican party even more than Bush did!!! Yes, I voted for Obama!!

JD Morgan,
When you talk about a drug addicted philanderer are you talking about Bill Clinton? Oh my bad. He didn' t inhale. It was Obama and Bush that were coke heads.

I'm not sure why CNN.com gave this issue any coverage at all. Rush Limbaugh and others of his ilk are nothing more than lame-duck dinosaurs, whose filthy behavior over the past 8 years has insured that they will have absolutely no voice whatsoever in upcoming events, issues, policies, etc. We should let these neo-conservative shills die the silent death they have all so nobly earned. I can't even imagine why ANYONE in government would give these purveyors of deceit any time at all, and I hope that CNN will ignore them in the future also.

Limbaugh is a quack, those that follow his advise are quacks and he has never been nor will he ever be a creditable source of note worthy news. Why are you even posting him on your web site. Extremist have a voice on CNN now.

First off, Hillary was in no way obligated to take this position. If she really wanted to take Barry down she would have done many things before now (convention floor fight, etc.). She's said that leaving the senate will be hard for her to do, and I believe that.

She's doing it because she believes it will be the best for the country. She has already proven she puts the DNC and the country above her own ambitions, even though the DNC deserves nothing from her after her treatment in the primaries.

for all you zombie, liberal lemmings: 20 million listeners care about what he thinks. then, because they actually can think for themselves, they decide if they agree. some do, some don't. get over yourselves. btw, most calls he takes are from liberals. he loves trying to talk some sense into there little minds.

give him a happy pill, and tell him to go away!

And again those that can't put together a cogent and logical thought instead resort to name calling. PE Obama, these are your supporters!

Limbaugh is such an idiot! He made it part of his career for so many years to trash the Clintons, especially Hillary……so now it's easy to imagine Limbaugh licking his chops……..probably gleefully thinking he's got more years of Clinton material to dish out. He is such a negative, country-dividing, and full of hate person…..how sad.

The out of context headline does not clearly communicate his real underlying point; it was Machiavellian of Obama to pick Clinton.

I don't care what Rush thinks, but are people who blog on this site so hateful toward people they disagree..name calling etc… Can't you disagree and still be civil??

I hope to see the day when hate-mongers like Limbaugh gets absolutely no attention. The world would be a much better place then.

Yep, Rush you are irrelevant, and yes you are a pig,, not sure you are a pink pig, but nevertheless, you are a pig. Just keep thumping away with your nonsense and your party just keeps on losing.

Hey liberals (since only you read this site now that its 9 to 1 democrat on nearly all shows but Lou's), IS HE WRONG?

He is correct.

Liberal rule #1, bash the person when you cant argue with the message.

the two biggest con artist in america…rush limbaugh and barry obama..

The Dems should be greatful to this guy and Palin as well. Without this guy help the primary would have been much shorter and Obama ground game would not have been as strong. As for Palin all Dems should be happy to see her as often as possible. Obama will be a shoe-in in 2012. Thanks big fat guy and palin. We may not have been able to do it without you.

Limbaugh paints the american picture to the rest of the world.

I hate to say it, but he is right! Obama actually beat her at her own game! How can Hillary possibly run against Obama in '12 without undermining her own credibility! If she refused the job, people would know she wants to run again! OK this way she can run in '16 against the Palin-Huckabee ticket!

Curious. Limbaugh encourages Republicans to join the Dems and to go vote for Clinton to prolong the nomination fight. Does he not realize that because of that (if he had any influence at all) the Dems themselves were able to establish a very strong campaigning department in every state which led to Obama's victory?

I'm betting he doesn't even have a clue.

Who cares??? Oh right, no one!

Is this guy still around?

Who knew?

Glad to see that Rush is back on his meds.

It's this kind of coverage by the media that makes Limppaw thinks he he has more influence than he really has (except of course among his redneck ditto head fanatic fans).

who cares what he thinks?? I don't get why CNN is always reporting his opinions and Palin's. The only way to discourage CNN from reporting idiot opinions from people like these two is by NOT replying to the posts.

I know its addictive and that bychecking out the blogs to see who else agrees with you that Palin is an idiot and not worthy of being covered, but RESIST the urge and you'll see shortly she and others like her will fade awayl because they really are not news worthy.

And we care about his opinion because…….?

did Rush change his drug of choice from oxici, or is he having withdrawals

who is Limbaugh anyway ? It's a pity that there are still some people that listening to those sick souls like Rush , Sean and Carl Rove..

Great leaders surround themselves with capable individuals with specific specialties, they don't look at themselves as able to do everything… some people think the president should have all the answers… I don't understand these people.

I'll bet Rush's opinions are more listened to than all of you guys put together!

Q: What is the difference between Rush Limbaugh and the Hindenburg?

A: One is a big flaming Nazi gasbag, the other is a blimp.

He is a none issue. Americans want a new course with our leaders working for all Americans. President-Elect Obama's selections are exactly what this country needs….All of us working together!

Who cares what this dingleberry has to say? Didn't he say the same thing about McCain's selection of Sarah Palin? Talk about irrelevant…

Limbaugh has such a big mouth and he is a nobody, in my view. I would not give MY stamp of approval to his radio talk show.

WOLF BLITZER MIS-QUOTED THE PRESIDENT ELECT WHEN HE
SAID THAT PRESIDENT ELECT OBAMA SAID THAT HE WOULD ATTACT PAKISTAN WITHOUT PERMISSION, BUT HE SAID IF THEY WERE UNABLE OR UNWILLING.

As much as it causes me to choke back the vomit by agreeing with ANYTHING Rush says I have to agree

He is more interested in drama than the progression of our country. Typical statement for an attention seeker like himself.

Wise up, folks. Rush is an entertainer, not a political commentator.

HEY OBAMA SUPPORTERS,

HOW ABOUT THAT CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE IT HILLARY AS SECRETARY OF STATE AND PREDOMINATELY ALL CLINTON PEOPLE AS STAFF!!!!!!!!!!

NOW WHO DID YOU SAY WON THIS ELECTION???????

Rush who?

Would CNN please not give this convicted felon the time of day. The last persons opinion in the world I want to hear is Limbaugh, second only to Dr. Phil. Two very narcisistic men with very little to say other than a bunch of babble.

limbaugh is a lying subversive but by saying this he can always claim that he is "fair and balanced" I am not against all dems see I supported the liar hillary.. I can see it now

Who actually takes political advice from a drug addict, anyway?

Funny how you people don't care about Rush but are obsessed with posting about him.

I am a little confused. Even if Obama didn't choose Hillary as the Secretary of State how could Hillary run for the nomination in 2012 as Obama will be the sitting President and Presidents are the automatic nominee?

Is it me or is Limbaugh off his rocker again?

Once again Limbaugh has just proven what a moron he truly is.

Limbaugh is one of my favorite comedians. Everything that comes out of his mouth is priceless.

Obama keeps his friends close but makes his enemy’s as cabinet picks

Like we asked you, Rush? Now shut up and stay out of the headlines.

The only people that care what Limbaugh says are people that do not have the ability to think for themselves.

I love how people who don't like Rush call him names and insult him but rarely confront him using logic and reason. How about commenting on what he's actually saying, rather than what he looks like and his personal habits?

I think this guy is using again.

Oh please. For the love of Sushi why would he want her close to anything he is doing. That woman tried her dardest best to bring him down to nothing-A case of if I can't win you can't either-.

Rush has far too much invested in Clinton-bashing to admit it publicly, but he and a lot of other conservatives are probably breathing a sigh of relief that Obama chose Hillary and not someone from the left fringe. Say whatever else about her, Hillary has been a red-tailed hawk on defense issues. What Rush is saying without saying is that putting Hillary in such a high-profile Cabinet job is also a good way to make sure Bill behaves himself, or at least tries to.

who cares what this idiot and his uninformed/misinformed crazies think. I bet you he's back on those pills again. This time when he cought, NO DEALS. Straight to the the Big house like he advocated for others. obviously, he has no regard for the right wing nuts who listen to his hateful vile, for he won't be telling them some of the lies. Dido fulls.

Shame on you Barbara Walters – why waste your/our precious time on this "drug-addled windbag"!!! He is so yesterday . . .

Rush is still trying to remain relevant. How quaint.

Rush Limbaugh who?????????? Slob!

Linbaugh and his evil ways does more harm to the Republican Party than Obama…How can he and the so called chrisitians be on the same page…..His comments about Hilary are stupid…Everything he says or tries to say is for shock value….the Republicans should get rid of him….
THE GENERATION COME UP ARE TO SMART FOR LINBAUGH AND THE CHRISTIANS…..

Limbaugh is irrelevant … nobody cares for his opinion …

Rush… Everyone hates you.. Save your brown nosing for someone who cares

So what! Do you always have to report what Rush Limbaugh says?
