Sometimes I think that Rush Limbaugh is the dumbest man in America. This happens whenever I take him at face value and forget that he is basically an entertainer with contempt for his audience. He will tell them anything. Last week, as if to validate my opinion of him, he went after Michelle Obama for playing the "race card" at the dedication of a museum in New York City. He described her as angry and complaining. The word he should have used was "right."
I would even have settled for "interesting." After all, when the first lady of the United States suggests that something's wrong when black and other minority children feel alienated from an institution like the Whitney Museum of American Art, maybe she has reason for saying so. In fact, she was talking out of experience.

Limbaugh was hearing none of it. The way he looks at it, Obama is not entitled to her experiences, certainly not to talk about it. "I mean, even if you're a committed liberal, you don't want to hear this stuff all the time," he said. "You're here at a museum dedication and you want to hear an angry first lady stand up and start complaining about stuff like this?" Well, yes, Rush, I do.

WITHOUT RACISM SHE HAS nothing..... except being disbarred and attending a privileged college ....because she is BLACK... she is a racist JOKE.... good riddance you ugly freak
Skewered him and rotisseried him on a slow fire. Chris was in fine form.
I find it ironic that the wife of the former “president” (dictator) of Haiti, Baby Doc Duvalier, was also named Michelle. Too bad we can’t deport Mama Moo-bama and her Baby Boy Barry to France like the Haitians did to Baby Doc and his Mooch.
Check out the comments at the site. Nearly every one pans the column. Scathing, they are.
Cohen; Education: Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, what else do you need to know ?????
He knows the Left is listening to try and get a sound bite they can attack him with. When non-listeners like Cohen listen, they think he's being completely serious when he isn't.
Well, she was right! Access to Museums and educational institutions are blocked by her demographics generally low intelligence and universally poor impulse control.
"PIG IN A BLANKET"
Because of my work schedule I don’t listen to Rush. I have to say that my take on Michelle’s speech was exactly as this guy says Rush described it. It was not your traditional graduation speech. It was essentially telling the grads that they can’t make it out there because the Powers that Be will ruthlessly keep them from achieving. The grads have only minimal power in themselves to affect their own futures. It all depends on pulling down The Man.
It was fabulous!
“Sometimes I think that Rush Limbaugh is the dumbest man in America.”
Do you think? Sometimes?
Richard Cohen is clearly demented.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I seem to remember during the 2008 campaign that she called Barack her “baby Daddy”.
I'm a direct descendent of John Brown, so I know what it's like to be hanged.
I MAY be a direct descendant of Rob Roy, or Australian movie star, Mel Gibson. Does that make me an expert on kilts, bagpipes, or haggis - - ???
Or kangaroos and boomerangs?
How about swinging a claymore ?
Thumb body thhtop meeeeee - - - - -
(I am first generation Scot - father’s side) - - -
That is what Rush pointed out.
