CPAC audience cheers: ‘The only way we will be successful is if we listen to Rush Limbaugh.’

Today at CPAC, Rush Limbaugh was supposed to deliver a 20-minute speech. It ended up lasting for 1 1/2 hours, before a right-wing audience that greeted him like a hero. Rush again defended his controversial comments that he hopes President Obama fails, saying they were “common sense.” He also claimed that Democrats had wanted the war in Iraq to fail. The overflow crowded exploded into applause at Rush’s remarks. After his speech, CPAC presented Rush with a “Defender of the Constitution” award, which included a document signed by Benjamin Franklin. The presenter then compared Rush to Franklin:

The king of England sat with his advisers, and they read the writings of Ben Franklin. They said, “The colonists will never be successful if they read what he writes.” Just as the king’s successor, who is in the White House, said the other day, that conservatives will never be successful if they listen to Rush Limbaugh. The only way we will be successful is if we listen to Rush Limbaugh!

The crowd again erupted into cheers.

1. Conservatroids don't do irony

If they existed back in the days of the American Revolution, they would be the loyalists kissing King George's pasty backside.

9. Conservatives did exist back in those days and that is exactly what they did. (nt)

2. Hot Dog! I hope they follow Rush Limbaugh right down the yellow brick road

He lead them to losing the House of Representatives in 2006

He lead them to losing the Executive branch in 2008

And he will lead them to only having 35 Senators in 2010

Rush Limbaugh - the best leader of the GOP we ever had.

8. Democrats didn't want the war in Iraq to fail

Democrats knew it would fail. What Democrats wanted or didn't want had nothing to do with it. More evidence of magical thinking on the part of Republicans. The failure of the war in Iraq wasn't a matter of Democrats clapping hard enough or believing hard enough in fairies; Tinker Bell was a goner from the moment Bush started his slow-motion dash into Iraq.

11. Rush Limbaugh, the Viagra-Oxycontin poppin' pedarast?

THAT Rush Limbaugh?

If it weren't for an anal cyst, he'd be a war hero.

[MadMaddie]

12. Then I say let's give them their leader

We as Progressives should elevate Rush as the Leader of the Repug part and let the party destroy itself from the inside.

There will be a time when Rush crosses that fine line in the sand and the Repug elders know it. It will be the demise of the Repug party....

We got work to do!!
