Tina Brown: Liberal Ad Elevates 'Blow-hard Bullfrog' Rush Limbaugh By Scott Whitlock | February 27, 2009 - 11:49
Former Vanity Fair and New Yorker editor Tina Brown appeared on Friday's "Morning Joe" to lament that a new liberal ad featuring Rush Limbaugh would only elevate the status of the "blow-hard bullfrog" conservative host.
The liberal group Americans United for Change has a spot running that slams Republicans as a party of no and features a clip of Limbaugh's now famous comment that he wants Obama's liberal policies to fail.
After "Morning Joe" co-host Willie Geist played the ad, Brown asserted of the commercial, "I adore the 'party of no.' I think it is wonderful."
She then complained, "The only thing I do regret though is that this giant, you know, blow-hard bullfrog, you know, Rush Limbaugh is being turned into this big icon."

I’m sure it offends Tina Brown for Rush to say he’s has talent on loan from God. I’ll bet it doesn’t offend her to think of Obama as ‘the One’.

“spot running that slams Republicans as a party of no”
I hope we are the party of NO. Haven’t seen much from the Dems that warrants a YES.

I agree with your short statement, expressing liberal group-think.

I about cracked up the other day in church...
The speaker started out with the phrase
“Jeremaih was a prophet”
and I could have sworn he WAS going to say “bullfrog”.
Maybe in a close by quantum universe he did... if I believed such a thing.
