WASHINGTON – A Democratic official rebuked conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh on Friday for suggesting a health care proposal will be named in memory of Sen. Edward Kennedy, who is battling brain cancer. On his radio show, Limbaugh said President Barack Obama's proposed health care revisions will be championed by "the liberal lion Teddy Kennedy."

A Democratic official rebuked conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh on Friday for suggesting a health care proposal will be named in memory of Sen. Edward Kennedy, who is battling brain cancer...it is an outrageous suggestion - a more worthy namesake would have been Mary Jo Kopechne.......

Libs made all these comments in newspapers after Kennedy ghot sick. GHannity went through the comments and descriptives, and named their DemoLib sources. Including that Kennedy wanted the bill named after himself, and that they wanted to get it done sooner rather than later to use Kennedys illness as impetus to get it passed.

DemoLibs are lying pigtards. Oh they are *so* “outraged”!

I was wondering about this... are these ratings real? 25 million?

[Ides of March]

The children at the Democrat Party are sponsoring an anti-Rush "Send Rush A Message" billboard contest HERE .

Maybe we could help them out with our own slogans, like "Rush Is Right" or "We hope he fails, too."

Typical Communist behavior--large outdoor posters of their heroes and villains.

“Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment.”

Nicely put.

I keep reading about how the Left (read Dem0rats) are going to overreach and fail. They have overreached, not going to overreach, and they are going down, and they know it.

They are reaching, grabbing at anything to push the blame of their own stupidity upon. The assault on Rush, is trying to set him up as a straw man for blame as diversion from their own stupid actions.

We need to get it across to the b-stards that we know what they are doing. They aren't fooling anyone. They'll fight harder and harder to try to blame Rush if they think they aren't succeeding in their quest for the straw man, and make even bigger fools out of themselves.

The great irony is that under Obama’s health care plan Teddy would have been denied special care or experimental surgery and left to die or been offered euthanasia.

I see nothing wrong with Rush’s comment regarding the Senator who is directly connected with the Chappaquiddick killing. It would be too great an honor for the man.

[RichInOC]

Okay, seriously, now...who believes Ted would be offended by the thought of being memorialized with a universal health care deform act?

"Muslims Democrats are outraged...!

“Before it’s all over, it’ll be called the Ted Kennedy Memorial Health Care bill,” Limbaugh said.

Brian Wolff, executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, called the remark outrageous and reprehensible.

Ted would love it, and it was probably in the works. What they're REALLY mad about is that if they do it now, Limbaugh will come on the radio and say, "Well, I told you last March that the Democrats would use the death of Ted Kennedy to try and ram Universal Health Care down your throat. Well, here it is, the second Wellstone Memorial. They're trying to use the memory of Ted Kennedy to force this on us. And remember, I told you they were going to do it. DON'T DOUBT ME."

The Dims hate it when Limbaugh calls their plays before they run them. That's what this is about.

[NeverMcCrazy]

Just so ya know....both of those figures on Rush’s audience numbers are incorrect.
Typical misleading from Talkers Magazine.

Rush’s numbers start at 20 million and have would have grown from there.
14 million is a number Talkers pulled out of their nether regions.
But there is really no way to know how the much the listenership has increased until the next book comes out.
Unless Talker magazine has some magic way no one else knows of to measure audience.

So, beware of what you read, even from supposed media “experts” like Howard Kurtz.

It’s odd when the full weight of the government is used against a private citizen.

[Arthur McGowan]

I don’t think Obama even wants to “remake” the United States into a socialist state.

I think he wants to KILL all the white people in America, through economic chaos, freezing, starving, terrorist attack, etc.—and is willing to see a lot of black people die, too, if that’s what it takes.

Just as he is happy to see most black pregnancies end in murder, just as long as white babies are murdered, too.
