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

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.
