Giant Weenie Roast
Rush Limbaugh is riding high, buoyed by his daily ability to be outrageous and get liberals all upset at him so that he can then play the victim of a liberal witch-hunt (uh, make that a "liberal Pillsbury dough-boy hunt").So one day he says he hopes Obama fails.
Then yesterday he said that Republican leaders in Congress were essentially girly men.
This afternoon Rep. Phil Gingrey, R-Ga., a very conservative member of the House, shot back and suggested that Limbaugh shut his fat trap. Rather, Gingrey essentially said that Limbaugh is out of touch:
You know you're just on these talk shows, and you're living well, and plus you stir up a bit of controversy and gin the base and that sort of thing.
In other words, Limbaugh's a dilettante? Instead of The Most Important Conservative Philosopher in the History of the Universe?
