Limbaugh Calls President Obama a 'Jackass'

Portnoy ABC News’ Steven Portnoy reports:
Derision of the president on his program is nothing new, but Rush Limbaugh’s tone today may have struck the ears of regular listeners as particularly disdainful, taking his contempt of the president to a new level.
The nation’s preeminent conservative talk radio host referred to Mr. Obama as a “jackass,” an “economic illiterate” and an “idiot, where capitalism is concerned.”
The rough stuff came during a monologue on the president’s position on extending the Bush tax cuts to all but the top two percent of wage earners.
Obama, Limbaugh says, is an "economic ignoramus" for not understanding how a "tax increase" on the wealthy won't stimulate growth.

Truth is never out of fashion.
Notice ABC isn’t interested in the least as to the veracity of Limbaugh’s claim.
Right 99.99% of the time...
LOL!@ABC!
What an insult to jackasses. He’s just a piece of crap.
(Yes, “crap” passes my “No profanity” test.)
Wow. Someone at ABC must have tuned in to Limbaugh for the first time today.
Wonder how ABC would react if they heard the average voter talking about Obama? Cause Limbaugh is sugar-coating it since he’s on the air.
Really...I have always thought of the Dum Mascot as a JACKASS. And members of the Dum party as Jakasses. So whats the big deal. A might touchy are we Dums?
and what is the news here??
Failing to see the problem here...
Same here. If anything, Rush was kind.
BUBO!!!
Uh, NO, it didn't.
These people really don't know flyover country too well. Besides, Pres. Bush was called much, much worse and it didn't seem to bother ABC "NEWS".
"a contemptibly foolish or stupid person; dolt; blockhead; ass. "
An @$$ that doesn't know jack.
he’s a jackass.
and a limped dick, coke snorting, pole smoking, moron. he’s an idiot every day of the week and twice on sunday.
he’s an American hating commie that needs to be banished from the country before it’s too late. he and all like him.
But Obama is a jackass.
And he has said a lot of nasty things about Rush from his comfy berth in the White House.
It IS the symbol of the Democrat(Communist/Socialist) Party.
What’s the problem?
Although if I were a real jackass, I’d be offended that I was compared to Obama.
Rush was refreshingly blunt today.
You just know Obama is stomping his feet and throwing a major league hissy fit over it.
