Rush Limbaugh On Romneycare Defense: A ‘Goldmine’ For Obama

[Swede]

Add Rush Limbaugh to the growing list of conservatives who are completely shocked by Team Romney’s latest move to defend itself by touting Mitt Romney’s Massachusetts health care law.

Limbaugh was literally left sputtering as he contemplated the Romney response.

Limbaugh’s criticism came just hours after political observers of all stripes were stopped dead in their tracks by Team Romney’s defense against a Democratic super PAC ad that all but accuses Romney of facilitating a woman’s death after Bain Capital shut down the steel mill her husband worked at, thereby denying the family of health insurance.

In two separate appearances on Fox News, Romney spokesperson Andrea Saul dismissed the ad and said that under Romney’s Massachusetts health care law — which Romney has repeatedly promised to strip away from the country as a whole if he’s elected president — the woman would still have insurance.

1. sputtering, spewing and slobbering

Rmoney really stuck both feet in it today.

[Jester Messiah]

19. Romney is bringing us all together...

Conservatives and Liberals alike can all stop and stare at this trainwreck of a campaign, and just marvel. I haven't seen a campaign this bad since... well, ever.

[JoePhilly]

2. Jabba the Rush is flipping out ... good.

[orwell]

3. When you have no rudder...

...the ship goes in circles...

Even the Cons are realizing what a loser this assclown is.

Imagine if we give him the bow of the USS US...

[Lone_Star_Dem]

4. Wow.

I don't suppose we're going to see Romney apologizing to Limbaugh. This is going to get Ugly.

[DearAbby]

5. I can barely stand the thought

[lpbk2713]

6. My guess ...

OxyRush wanted to hit Mittens for a couple of million $$ for his
endorsement and Mittens turned him down. This is the result.

[The Wizard]

7. Send fried pork rinds

to Rash Limbaugh. Hasten his departure from normal people to Dante's 9th Circle.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

8. It's great

Now Romney has to repudiate what his own spokesperson said or defend it as well- he's either going to piss off the Tea Party regressives or he's going to look pretty heartless to a lot of people when he tries to defend denying care to anybody who isn't fortunate enough to live in Massachusetts in the face of the Priorities ad.

[sadbear]

9. Team Obama pushed Team Romney's hand?

Did they actually believe the Romney campaign would respond this way, or was it just luck?

[ananda]

10. It wasn't luck.

This was a masterful stroke.

No matter what the Rom campaign said, it would be wrong.

[malaise]

16. As Bill Maher said

Obama will fuck you up

[TomCADem]

20. Romney's Response Essentially Validates The Ad...

...and supports the Affordable Health Care Act in one swoop.

[Iliyah]

11. Fuck Limpballs

and I don't give a eff what this is guy spouting!

[Blue Idaho]

12. Now imagine these clowns running The country...

Mitt will get his Mormon dream come true and the constitution will indeed hang by a thread...

[lindysalsagal]

13. Just more proof you have to be a moron to work for or vote for a repub

Honesly, does anyone really think he's surrounded by geniuses?

[Initech]

14. And we're seeing the tip of the iceberg here, folks. Rmoney is clearly a sinking ship.

[dogknob]

15. From now on I shall refer to this moment as "The D'OH! Heard 'Round The World" n/t

[NutmegYankee]

17. I love it when the Repubs eat each other.

Years of seeing circular firing squads on the Dem side just makes it even sweeter to watch.

[magnifisense]

18. Tweety had a segment on this earlier tonight.

The Republican circular firing squad. Love it!

[cstanleytech]

21. Popcorn for everyone!!!

[Raster]

22. Maybe Jabba the Rush will do us all a tremendous favor and choke to death on his own spittle....

....during his spewing and sputtering.

[fascisthunter]

23. Rush Limbaugh.... a sick sociopath with a microphone.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

24. The inevitable "Downfall" parody:

Hitler finds out that a Romney spokesperson praised universal healthcare. http://meemsy.com/v/3090
