Limbaugh Calls President Obama a 'Jackass'

October 05, 2010 3:03 PM

Portnoy ABC News’ Steven Portnoy reports:

Derision of the president on his program is nothing new, but Rush Limbaugh’s tone today may have struck the ears of regular listeners as particularly disdainful, taking his contempt of the president to a new level.

The nation’s preeminent conservative talk radio host referred to Mr. Obama as a “jackass,” an “economic illiterate” and an “idiot, where capitalism is concerned.”

The rough stuff came during a monologue on the president’s position on extending the Bush tax cuts to all but the top two percent of wage earners.

Obama, Limbaugh says, is an "economic ignoramus" for not understanding how a "tax increase" on the wealthy won't stimulate growth.

Quoting an AP article from yesterday, Limbaugh pointed out Obama’s remarks at a meeting of his Economic Recovery Advisory Board that the wealthy would “take our ball and go home” if their tax cuts aren’t extended.

Limbaugh then addressed the following line to the president directly:

nobama has been elevated by Rush’s comment. nobama really is a *&%$##$@**&^^$%$! Other than the 91% of racist blacks, who really supports this clueless so-called leader?

[infowarrior]

He was giving us examples of the true definition of jackass, a male burro. A female is a judyass...something like that.

Close... A female donkey is a jennyass...

A female is a Jenny.

[Real Cynic No More]

“jackass,” an “economic illiterate” and an “idiot, where capitalism is concerned.”

Since when is speaking the truth something to be criticized over? Rush really nailed it in this statement.

[Thane_Banquo]

Nothing he said is factually incorrect.

[November 2010]

Obama should sue ... for definition of character.

The liberal media and Demo-rats have been hurling insults at Bush and the Republicans for how long now? Hillary gets up in the Senate and calls Bush Hitler and the Republicans Nazi’s, Bush portrayal as the Joker and movies about assassinating him ... this is Ok??? But for Rush to call a ‘jackass’ a ‘jackass’ is not???

[Just A Nobody]

So did the Emperor of Japan

Well, you know the old saying...to anger a conservative, lie to him. To anger a liberal, tell him the truth.

[Redbob]

And a female caller took issue with Rush’s description of the PRESidENT as a jackass, saying that it defamed a hard-working reliable and decent farm animal!

[NoGrayZone]

Thanks, I just ordered a couple!

[Kickass Conservative]

Do you remember the outrage shown by ABC when they made the Movie about assassinating President Bush?

Didn't think so.
