Rush Limbaugh, the man who did more than anyone else to create the modern Republican brand in the 1990s, is now destroying it. Everyone knows he has "jumped the shark" culturallybecome a black-shirted joke even as he dominates the headlines. But it's worse than that for Republicans. Limbaugh has taken the great GOP calling cardtoughnessand shredded it. The party of Lincoln is in danger of becoming the party of Jell-O.
Witness the specter of party leaders from Georgia Rep

If liberals are saying this, that means he is affective and getting to them.
The Dems finally have a unifying theme - cowardice.
Everyone is attempting to pile on.
A no name trying to get his name mentioned on Rush, not going to happen.
Brought to you by the same magazine that says that the sovereign state of Israel is Palestinian territory.
Jonathan Alter is what Rush would call a “butt boy” for Obama.
Getting his talking points from the White House.
Jonathon Alter never misses an opportunity to recite the Democratic’s weekly talking points.
I like how they say “everyone knows . . “. Like the Manhattan socialite in 1968 who said, “I can’t belive Nixon won. Nobody I know voted for him!”.
Alter is irrelevant.
As opposed to the brown-shirted joke in the White House.
BTW..."Everyone knows"... for a fishwrap that fancies itself to be "intellectual" they have to make cheap generalizations? Who is everyone in their little universe? 20 million plus Americans would disagree...

if Limbaugh has besmirched the Republican Party, what has this scum done to the concept of journalism, or even earning an honest living?
lol.
Rush is not a Republican, he is a conservative.
too bad these idiots do nothing but follow the talking points of Rahm Emmanuel
If this is true, Jonathan, why are you libs getting all hot and bothered about it? Hmmmm?
Funny - my mom said the same thing about O at a recent family gathering. :-)
Newspeak Magazine jumped the shark in the 1980s, with it’s slavish devotion to the USSR.
joke
Jonathan...we know Rush Limbaugh and he is no joke.
You sir are the joke!
Pick a target and go after it without mercy.
I’m surprised they waited this long to go after Limbaugh.
But he’s in good company. The more irrational the attacks are, the more certain the target is good, decent, and effective. Just remember who they’ve gone after over the years, how they’ve used their high-decibel screeching solid wall of 24 hour bile to tear down anyone who they thought was in their way.
This is right out of the DNC playbook. They’ve done it before and they’ll do it again and again and again.
This is getting comical.
I’ll bet Rush will never even need to untie the other half of his brain from behind his back.
Did this guy fall into a freezer in 1988 and was only thawed out last month? Did he miss McCain's Chinese firedrill campaign? Did he miss Clinton's trial in the Senate where none of the Republican senators even bothered to go look at the evidence?
