Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee pushed back Wednesday on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., for downplaying President Trump's honoring of conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh at Tuesday's State of the Union address.
“First of all, the Presidential Medal of Freedom is an extraordinarily sacred award," Ocasio-Cortez said. "We’re talking about putting someone on the same level as Rosa Parks, for example, in terms of their contributions to American progress. Rush Limbaugh is a virulent racist.”
“For her to complain about a person with State IV cancer who for longer than she has been alive has actually saved AM radio in this country and has been responsible for creating an extraordinary voice for people who are conservative,” Huckabee told, “Outnumbered Overtime.”
“Whether she likes that or not, she should admire the talent that he brought to the game and the condition that he is in right now,” Huckabee said.

Rush has always championed freedom and self reliance so I can see why a hard core socialist who wishes tyranny on the population would be upset. She should drop to her knees and scream at the sky.
RUSH has done more charitable work that AOC will ever do in 10 lifetimes.
Mr. Bo Snerdley says he has worked with Rush for 30 years and wishes to see proof of any racism.

Ellen Degenerate and Robert DeNiro got one from hussein,
Maybe she can remind me about their great contributions to American progress.
When Rush’s time comes (not for years) he should lie in state in the capital and laid to rest at Arlington. Make it happen, Mr. President!
Exactly, Rush has given and raised millions for charity and the only thing she has done is take.
Drama queen AOC chose to skip the SOTU.
You don’t get an opinion, lame brain.
To be called a racist by AOC (another obnoxious communist) means nothing.
She continues to say what other people pay her to say.
Because you see, she simply doesn’t have the intelligence to make this stuff up herself.
Harvey Milk! He was Ed Buck without the murder. His victims were young teenage boys who he RAPED.
And aside from the usual vague charges, what makes Rush Limbaugh a "virulent racist"?
Rush would not approve.
It’s not like it was RAPE rape.
Huckabee.. How about mentioning Rush does Not have a racist bone in his body!!
Getting so sick of this Racist BS! Especially, when DEMOCRATS are still the Biggest Racists Alive!!
Bump!
What makes Rush racist?
Well, perhaps it goes back to Hillary and saying we are all racist sexist homophobic, etc. as we hang out in the basket of deplorables?

While I would love to see the former the latter is an impossibility. Arlington is for military veterans who have served honorably. Not civilians. No matter how impressive their service to the country.
But, AOC will make the Electoral College tuition free!
