Rush Limbaugh: Obama Would Let His Mother-In-Law Eat Dog Food Without Social Security To Help His Case

Audio
» 28 comments

Rush Limbaugh seemed to express some disappointment with Congressional Republicans hesitancy to pass a budget and then force President Obama to take responsibility for the consequences of accepting it or vetoing it. Instead, Rush concluded the “back-up plan” proposed by Senator Mitch McConnell was a result of Republicans being “scared to death” and eager to let Obama get all the blame for massive government spending.

Rush sympathized with McConnell’s frustration, explaining, “if you’re an elected Republican in Washington you have to deal with this media . . . the simple unfairness of it all.” Therefore Rush did understand that McConnell’s plan “was an attempt to put the onus all on Obama.” He wasn’t as angry with the Congressional Republican leadership plan as one might have expected, but he did target Obama for politicizing his every move.

Rush wondered, “do you really believe that Obama is going to go home after work and tell his own mother-in-law that she’s not getting her Social Security check?” Rush then answered his own question, saying since Obama threw his own mother and grandma under the bus in the past with comments about a “typical white woman,” he concluded, “if [Obama's] mother-in-law eating dog food a couple of days would move the case forward, hell no problem!” Although if you listen closely, it might seem as if Rush is just a bit frustrated himself that Republican leaders don’t have the same political ruthlessness that Rush apparently sees in Obama.

    Well he did lie about his mother’s healthcare coverage in selling Obamacare, so I think it’s safe to assume that once again, Rush is right:

    Tell, why is it that foreigners can move here to the US ILLEGALLY!, become a citizen and immediately begin collecting FROM OUR GOVERNMENT?

    Well, why not ask Obama’s aunt, that is what happened with her. Why not cut off her check FIRST and anyone like her! More on the story-

    By the way, if you ask her, she will tell you she DESERVES THAT OBAMA STASH BECAUSE!

    This just in: Rush Limbaugh would let his mother-in-law (who is younger than him btw) to eat dog food even if she did get social security.

  • The Lantern of Truth

    Obama is ruthless . Ask his grandmother , Rev. Wright , Bill Ayers , Aunt Zeituni , his brother George in the hut, any of his opponents in Illinois,TonyRezko, Rod Blagojevich,Bill Clinton , etc.

  • TeaPartyNation

    Like a twisted, desperate, cornered CRIMINAL, “YOU LIE!” obozo aims his gun at his hostages – the elderly, the poor, the sick – and says “If you don’t give me every TAX INCREASE I want, they’ll get it.”

    This guy is so mentally impaired and deranged from his self-documented* massive drug use he is a danger to everyone in this country.

    *Of course, everyone knows that American terrorist and accomplice to murder bill ayers wrote the obozo books.

    Address their points and you may make some headway, attacking the person is a fallacy and a Saul Alinsky tactic, you can do better than that correct?

    Do you like the way that Obama addressed the issue? Do you think it is compromise for Obama to get his tax increases and no cuts to get the increase in the debt ceiling?

    Well?

    Sorry I don’t address paid GOP consultants. It’s akin to pounding your head against a brick wall. They will NEVER concede a point in my favor, even if I spent 4 paragraphs explaining point by point why they are wrong.

    I’m not new to Mediaite.

    Thank you and good day, sir.

    It’s enough for me to call them out as criers and whiners.

    And yes I do like the way Obama addressed the issue.

    To get further into the discussion, does anyone know what happens when the debt becomes unsustainable?

    Our current debt is mostly short term notes, these have to be turned over every three months or so. If the debt becomes so large that it pushes private lending aside, it hurts the private sector. Hmmm, is that happening now?

    If the debt becomes so large that interest rates have to be increase because of a downgrade or because of other factors, there will be no way to pay back the debt. What happens then?

    Have ANY of you had an macroeconomics course where you ACTUALLY challenged your professors for answers to your questions and doubts? Have the likes of Krugman and other leftist economics talking heads been right over the years? Or have they been consistently wrong?

    Facts-

    The US is currently in a DEPRESSION! A depression is defined as 4 contiguous quarters of declining GDP
    2010 GDP stated growth rate was 2.6%
    2010 US Federal deficit spending was 9.6% of GDP
    2010 EFFECTIVE or ACTUAL GDP growth was a NEGATIVE 7%

    2009 was worse, 2011 is on the road to the same or worse than 2010

    Isn’t it time to quit using the FAILED policies of the past keynesian ideas and use real world facts and observations to solve the problem.

    Why does Obama continue the failed policies of the past?

    Oh well, I tried to be civil.

    Anyway, so raising an additional 50-75 billion a year is going to make a dent in that 1.6 Trillion dollar deficit.

    I am glad I am talking with another person that has failed 2nd grade mathematics.

    Is Mediaite working for Limbaugh now? You managed to find the one photo of that fat drug addled loser where he looks less than fat.

    “Anyway, so raising an additional 50-75 billion a year is going to make a dent in that 1.6 Trillion dollar deficit.”

    It’s a start. What’s YOUR plan?

    Cut more taxes for billionaires? That certainly won’t help us with our staggering debt at all. In fact, it’s exactly that kind of thinking fron the right that got us in the mess the first time.

    we had a surplus under Clinton, We had high tax rates under Nixon and Kenedy. Our economy exploded and did very well under all three of those ex-Presidents.

    We started getting into debt problems under Reagan.

    Bush 1 and Bush 2 really pushed the problem to staggering proportions, that we are still trying to emerge from (though we never may be able to, ever, so badly did Bush 2 especially screw up the balance of America’s books).

    No, you’re just used to the media using his worst, pre-diet photos, in an effort to shape perception.

    Bush, Clinton, Reagan, blah blah blah.

    Eliminate all and EVERY deduction in the tax codes first and foremost. No one gets anything for anything.

    Take the IRS tax code from 100,000+ pages to 10 pages first for individuals.

    Second, eliminate all and every of the newer accounting rules that are manipulated to allow not paying proper taxation. I would suggest going back to 1980 era accounting rules.

    Third, eliminate all and every Trust and Foundation exemption rules for everyone. That is where the TRULY rich like Koch, Gates, Soros, Kennedy etc etc etc hide their money.

    There are a few more steps in the transition but this would become to long to explain, those are the major ones. But the ending is a flat rate sales tax on everything except unprepared food, clothing under current value of $100 and rental property. Everything else is at say 25-35%, that would have to be determined by a democratic ballot. That is on EVERYTHING, including stocks. That would force a true savings policy for our trading markets. It would also stop speculators. Oooooh, those evil speculators.

    Anyway, this would then require that all property taxation be eliminated. Once you purchase something and have paid the sales tax, you own it, you do not have to continue to pay the state for the right to your own property.

    Now, you could do this with an income tax, but labor taxation IMO is unConstitutional. You trade your labor for something of value, their is no profit made.

    Just some of my thoughts on a proper taxation system.

    Must Rush say something patently ridiculous every show now?
    Is that his new strategy for media attention?

    Rush’s remarks would be right on if we didn’t know Obimbo’s illegal alien auntie, is living off the American taxpayers without ever contributing one dime to the system. She’s a wonderful humanbeing…………..

  • labman57

    Rush “let’s keep this a White Man’s World the way God intended” Limbaugh needs to do a better job of regulating the flow into and out of his “pie hole”. Whenever he opens his mouth, either mass quantities of apple pie are crammed in, or mass quantities of cow pie spew out.

    This is what happens when you see the world through sh*t-colored glasses, an affliction facing Rush since he spends so much time with his head up his ass.

    Hey Rush, take it easy on the oxycontin, it’s really warping your mind more than usual.

  • Spike1

    Economy wise Bush wasn’t a very good president, he spent to much money on unnecessary wars causing a debt crisis. Bush spent 7 trillion dollars in his 8 years as president. Obama, who has been president for 2 1/2 years has spent 4 1/2 trillion dollars. Obama wants another 2 1/2 trillion dollars. 4 1/2 + 2 1/2 = 7 trillion in 2 1/2 years. It almost seems like Bush was a bargin. Obama scares the hell out of seniors, he wants to stop their S.S. checks that they worked their whole life for. The Republicans don’t want to cut the defense budget which has been over funded for years. Why do we need 900 overseas bases ? Why do we need 2 engine manufacturers for the F35 fighter when the military said they don’t want or need another ? We can’t even defend our own borders and we are killing innocent people in other countries and calling it collateral damage. We spend billions to bomb and kill people and destroy property and spend billions to rebuild what we just bombed. The result, we make more enemies and drain our economy while improving theirs. Is it too much to ask for a president and congress that have common sense ?
