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:

Probably should have referred to him as a “stiff-necked donkey” instead.

It was opposition to the reported mortgage bailout for minoritys, making FOOLs of those of us who actually PAID our mortgages, that set the Tea Parties in motion!

I think it's moronic that they keep using the drug reference with Limbaugh, when we have pictures of their hero, (yes their Savior!) with a joint in his mouth.

Again, Democrat=Hypocrite

What's okay for them is a sign of a completely corrupt and untrustworthy Republican.

Obama was just smokin' to smoke. Rush was treating chronic pain and became addicted. Big difference.

That’s right. And this thin-skinned loser should only hear what the average American would say about him, his wife, his Communist mother, and everyone else remotely related to him.

...how a "tax increase" on the wealthy won't stimulate growth.

Interesting use of scare quotes there, to promote the Democrat party's desperate attempt to convince us that an increase in taxes isn't a tax increase.

The symbol of the Democratic party is a donkey...I’m not understanding the outrage for accurately defining him. :-D
