In between the insults, others have said it better than I ever could. To call it “pure Marxism” is as someone noted ‘bombastic nonsense’. It’s like a stage performer telling the audience “you are the best audience ever”. And as someone else noted, Limbaugh is an entertainer, no different from Barbra Streisand and Metallica. I am not a fan of any of them, that’s all.

There is no such thing as pure Marxism. The “purism” canard is a just facile way for a Marxist to distance himself from unpleasant memories of the wretched authoritarianism associated with that label. To the extent Obama wields power by appealing to populist illusions of economic equality through governmental coercion, it is fair enough to call him a Marxist.
BTW, nice Alinskyism tactic there. Rush does entertain. Diminishing his beliefs as insincere or intellectually unsound simply because he earns money for being interesting is a causal fallacy of the first order. But many never catch it, so it is effective.
