What is inexcusably divisive is attributing quotes to someone that they didn’t say.

Especially the terrible racist quotes they falsely assigned to Rush. This Sanchez guy is a real sicko.

If true, it sounds like a strong case for Rush is being built. But why would he go public with this?

I’m not even going to tell Sanchez what I think of this sleezy journalism that he spouts.

If ya’ fight with a skunk, even if ya’ win, ya’ end up stinkin’.

So, is the ACTUAL hate-filled fraud (er, “journalist”) who started the lie going to ACTUALLY issue a real statement - Something, maybe, like a “full sentence” on letterhead and ON THE AIR?

Or am I merely skeptical of a cell phone text message by an anonymous behind-the-scenes generic producer/writer/cameraman/gofer source?

Is he allowed to tweet with such a high blood alcohol count?

I am so glad they don’t find Olbermann divisive.

I'm really surprised they didn't work the quote back in to their admission that they screwed up and didn't confirm it.

It's not like them to waste another shot at telling a lie, even when they're saying that the lie was a lie.

“Our bad”?

Oh gee... that’s makes it all better, then?

Just a little “oppsie”?

I hope Rush sues them for everything down to the fillings in their teeth.

Sanchez is a small fish. Rush must go after the guy who controls the pond.

Limbaugh Targeted By Obama Official

“I wonder if Rush knew Soros was part of Checketts group when he agreed to join. I can’t imagine that he did, not even for Soros’ political dealings but his financial crimes. Never in a million years would this have ended well for Rush with Soros’ involvement.”

I think Rush wasn’t just ‘targeted’; I believe he was purposefully set up to be discredited - by George Soros and the White House.

Rush needs to go after Soros. He owns the pond and set up Rush.

Rick Sanchez must have had a few good drinks after admitting this. I hope he didnt hit someone and get another DUI when he drove home plastered. He’s been known to do that.

This is the official CNN apology for slandering Rush Limbaugh? Perhaps they should have asked someone who graduated from elementary school to write it.

I wonder if Sharpton and Jesse the racist shakedown Klan leaders are going to retract their slanders. Can they be sued for saying these false things about Rush?

I guess now CNN is competing with MSNBC for the cutting edge most slanderous news outlet.
