Rush Limbaugh Credited with Liberal Smear
By Conservative Hawk | June 18, 2008
It shouldn’t surprise me how the left wing extremists like Barack Obama can take a smear perpetuated by a liberal and assign the blame to a conservative. It shouldn’t surprise me but it still does.
The attack on Limbaugh was made through a new Barack Obama web site set up to answer the so called smears against he and his wife. On this web site, the very first item is a smear of Rush Limbaugh and here it is:
LIE: Rush Limbaugh says a tape exists of Michelle Obama using the word “whitey” from the pulpit of Trinity United
Much like the smear Obama and Harry Reed spread regarding the “phony soldier” issue, this is another example of a guy who does no homework before he opens his big mouth (of course I mean Obama)
I listen to the Rush Limbaugh show every day. I heard this show. This is exactly what Rush Limbaugh said:
“The rumor is — and we don’t like dealing with rumors here — but the rumor is that Michelle Obama from the pulpit of this church used the term ‘whitey.’ Some have said to Be very careful with this because she might have said ‘why’d he,’ why did he, the contraction ‘why’d he’ instead of ‘whitey.’ “
It is notable to mention that Limbaugh even called into question, the credibility of the man who claimed he had this video.
It sickens me that Barack Obama, even after being confronted with audio proof of what Rush said, would keep that lie and smear of Rush Limbaugh on his web site.
Backtracking a bit, in September of last year, the left wing extremists trotted out “Army Ranger” Jesse McBeth, a “Corporal” who received a Purple Heart for his service in Afghanistan. They lauded him for his courage in protesting the war.
WRONG. Jesse McBeth was not an Army Ranger, never achieved the rank of Corporal, didn’t receive the Purple Heart and was never in Afghanistan. In fact, he was sentenced to five months in jail and 3 years probation for falsifying a Department of Veterans Affairs claim form and his discharge papers. He only served 44 days in the Army.
When Rush put the story out there, he referred to Jesse McBeth as a phony soldier. He referred to Jesse McBeth and Jesse McBeth ONLY as a phony soldier. As I said, I listen to his show every day and when I can’t listen, I log onto my account at Rush 24-7 and listen to the pod cast. I head this show live and THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT RUSH SAID.
When Harry “Dingy” Reed got a hold of this story, he and Barack Obama jumped on the bandwagon and wanted to censure Limbaugh for his comments. They claimed he referred to soldiers who oppose the war as “Phony Soldiers”. A claim that was completely and ridiculously false. They even sent a letter to Limbaugh’s affiliate stations asking them to take action against Limbaugh.
When Obama was confronted with the proof, his reaction was to say that he stood by his letter because he read the transcript of the show.
Time and time again, Obama has made insane claims about the people who point out his faults and time and time again he is proven wrong. But he never apologizes.
Well, Mr. Obama… We are all waiting for you to apologize to Rush Limbaugh for your constant, false attacks on him. WE ARE WAITING…
