what is all this shit i'm hearing about rush limbaugh and how he is or should be the leader of the republican party. is this a joke? ![]() Michael Steele, the chairman of the RNC, recently said, "Rush Limbaugh's whole thing is entertainment. Yes, it is incendiary. Yes, it is ugly." Limbaugh basically responded with something like, "If I were the head of the Republican Party, I'd quit, because the Republican Party is teh suck." And then Steele apologized, saying, "I have enormous respect for Rush Limbaugh. I was maybe a little bit inarticulate. There was no attempt on my part to diminish his voice or his leadership. I went back at that tape and I realized words that I said weren’t what I was thinking. It was one of those things where I thinking I was saying one thing, and it came out differently. What I was trying to say was a lot of people want to make Rush the scapegoat, the bogeyman, and he’s not." So basically, instead of sticking to his guns, he groveled before Limbaugh. The story goes a bit deeper. Limbaugh's a pretty polarizing figure, so the Democrats are working really hard to make Limbaugh out to be the "spiritual" head of the Republican Party, if you will -- because Limbaugh basically repulses anyone but diehard Repubs, so the Dems hope to draw some in-the-middle-type people by doing so. |
