CNN's Bill Schneider: Limbaugh Speech Was 'Angry, Mocking, Bullying, Harsh, and Full of Contempt'

It appears that Rush Limbaugh's speech yesterday to the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) was just too much for CNN's political analyst, Bill Schneider, to handle. Schneider just couldn't contain his inner liberal as you can hear in the amazing invective hurled Limbaugh's way in this video as he was interviewed by Randi Kaye about the speech. Here is the transcript of Schneider in all his extremely biased glory:

RANDI KAYE, CNN HOST: Senior political analyst, Bill Schneider, watched it from Los Angeles. He's part of the best political team on television and he joins me now by phone. Bill, what do you make of Rush Limbaugh's tone during that keynote address?

BILL SCHNEIDER: Well, it was an angry tone. He was the hero of 1994. Fifteen years ago when Republicans won a big victory in Congress. And that was the year of the angry white men. When they came to power they honored him as being the prophet who led them to victory. Well, this was a very angry speech. By the way, they're not all white and they're not all men but they are angry conservative voters. They didn't do so well last year but they're still angry. The tone of this speech was mocking, bullying, it was full of contempt, and I thought it was a very harsh speech. One that while it rallied the conservative audience it also angered a lot of Democrats and people who aren't particularly partisan just by the tone of it.

Be sure to read this article to the end. CNN also couldn't find a single Twitter comment favorable towards Rush. Not one!

So I guess Bill didnt like it? Obviously, tell us something we dont already know. Its time to get new journalists instead of getting rid of conservatism.

I read Rush's speech. It was very optimistic.

Rush frequently points out that conservatives are happy people. In the Orwellian world of Marxist liberalism that means “harsh”m “angry”, “mocking”...etc.

Who is Bill Schneider?

Is is becoming very clear why CNN aired Rush’s speech. They think it helps their cause.

Yep, that’s why we love him. The truth is not always pretty.

It must have been a great speech then if it has liberals in a snit.

Thanks but no thanks. Bill Schneider has been exposed as a liberal street 'ho many long moons ago. His emissions are totally predictable and his opinions mean nothing.

Of course, when Democrats have retreats, they dish out nothing but hugs and puppys for those on the other side of aisle.

Angry, mocking, harsh...Well duh! He was talking about Democrats! This idiot just validated Rush’s remarks. After hearing Schneider, Rush would probably say “I rest my case.”
