Oh, It’s On: Charles Krauthammer Responds To Rush Limbaugh’s “Slobbering” Critique
MEDIAite ^ | January 14, 2011 | Alex Alvarez

Posted on 01/14/2011 10:54:36 AM PST by Beaten Valve

A house divided against itself cannot stand… but it will certainly garner a lot of media attention. As we told you earlier, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh is criticizing Fox News Channel’s “All-Star Panel” for, as he sees it, “slobbering” over President Barack Obama’s speech at this week’s memorial event for those killed in the recent Tucson, Arizona shooting.

Fox News is, of course, fighting back. Charles Krauthammer appeared on Bret Baier’s show last night and responded to Limbaugh’s critique:

"As one of the three slobberers… I find it interesting that only the ruling class wants a president who is smart articulate and oratorical in delivering a funeral oration… It’s an odd and rather condescending view of what the rest of America is looking for in their president."

(Snip to video)

There is such fear of censorship at Fox that they are likely to gush over all things liberal/Obama in the future.

Did you hear Rush's comment about this today?...

"I was going to name my first child Krauthammer, but now, after this..nope..."

Hah! Abraham Lincoln used to be likened to a baboon by the press during the War Between the States. He wasn’t considered “smart, articulate and oratorical”.

Rush was making a point that went right over your head, Charles.

Maybe Rush is looking at the complete Obama rather than the teleprompter reading Obama who spoke for a half hour at his 2012 campaign kick-off rally.

Honestly, what is Krauthammer smoking?

If only the Presidency were nothing more than making smart articulate oratorical in delivering a funeral orations. Substance matters. We are experiencing that right now. One heart-warming speech (with t-shirts) does not undo the harm of 2yrs of substantive America wrecking.

"....smart, articulate and oratorical"

Now that's a trifecta I wouldn't put six dollars on.

Someone else wrote that speech, Charles, you over-educated, ignorant schlump. All O'Bummer did was drone it.

Dr Krauthammer underestimated the Tea Party movement, actually he ridiculed it, and overestimated Obama speech. evidence for that is plentiful with the left continuing their insane attacks on Palin, Rush, Beck and the Tea Party and a shotting victim coming out today and echoing that insanity after having listened to Obamas 'brilliant" speech.

Charles has terminal inside the beltway disorder. It can't be fixed.

He’s also a mysoginist with a visceral dislike of Palin. I find it interesting that Krauthammer seems to have changed his tune since Zero mentioned him by name as a conservative whose opinion he respected or some such garbage about a month ago. I guess he’s gone over to the dark side for some more “Bammy love.”

I bet on Rush of course.

I didn’t watch 0zero so I don’t know how I would characterize his “performance”... like so many, I put 0zero on mute months ago.

But it doesn’t really matter what Krauthammer or anyone thinks, does it?

Beyond that, it doesn’t really matter how 0zero did... we still don’t want his health care disaster, we still don’t want his federal [lol i originally typed “feral”] control, and we still don’t want his failed economic policies, and we damn sure still don’t want his foreign “policy”...

Many have tried....and all have failed. El Rushbo is the best.

… I find it interesting that only the ruling class wants a president who is smart articulate and oratorical in delivering a funeral oration…

...and I find it interesting that such a smart guy chooses to be so willfully obtuse. I side with Rush.
