That is the impression that I receive from Limbaugh's comments. From his April 14 broadcast:
RUSH: You know what we have learned about the Somali pirates, the merchant marine organizers that were wiped out at the order of Barack Obama, you know what we learned about them? They were teenagers. The Somali pirates, the merchant marine organizers who took a US merchant captain hostage for five days were inexperienced youths, the defense secretary, Roberts Gates, said yesterday, adding that the hijackers were between 17 and 19 years old. Now, just imagine the hue and cry had a Republican president ordered the shooting of black teenagers on the high seas. Greetings and welcome back, Rush Limbaugh, the Excellence in Broadcasting Network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Not funny, fat guy. The three black muslim guys were pirates who had an American citizen at gunpoint. It irks you that the Pirates lost, and Obama won, doesn't it?
Here's your reality check, Rush. If George W. Bush had ordered the killing of Muslims, he would have been praised. How do I know that? He did give such orders, involving many thousands of muslims, not just three pirates caught red-handed, including many innocent civilians, and he was repeatedly praised by you and yours. Now that Barack Obama gives similar orders, you sneer at him, and spit on other conservatives who dare to praise Obama for doing the right thing (example: Jonah Goldberg).
Actually Rush, you are more like Saddam Hussein than you would like to admit. Saddam's first rule of power was the Machiavelli thing, "better to be feared than loved". He gassed the Kurds and savaged the Shiites because he wanted to stay alive by intimidating them. By the same token, Rush Limbaugh never says anything good about liberals, even when they do something that he would praise if a conservative were to do it. It's not really about conservative principles anymore for Rush, if indeed it ever was about that. It's now about diminishing Obama, by any means necessary, fair or foul.
