Commenting on Obama's over reaction to the New Yorker cartoon Limbaugh noted that the people who go ballistic over cartoons are Muslims. Obama would do well to find a sense of humor.

Well, maybe the New Yorker should portray Rush on its cover with a syringe stuck in his arm in the middle of a NY 'shooting gallery', just to make sure the blowhard himself has a sense of humor. There's certainly more truth in portraying Rush as a junkie than Obama as a Muslim
I don't think limbaugh ever injected drugs. he was a pill popper.

A Muslim would find the cartoon offensive and hurtful because front and center among its collection of symbols that push the buttons of the anti-Obama hate-mongers* is Obama dressed in Islamic clothes - the artist's shorthand for the "Obama is a closet Muslim Jihadist" rumor/belief. That would offend the average Muslim - to be reminded that his culture's way of dress signifies terrorism to many people.
It's funny how the same man (Limbaugh) who said that drug users and people who become addicted to drugs and such are weak, should be jailed etc...and people agree with him. Yet when it's brought to light that he has been doing the same thing AND having illegal prescriptions written for him a) nothing happens to him b) his lemming followers do nothing about it and act as if nothing happened and c) he has the audacity to try and blast ANYONE regarding drug use or abuse.
It's an absolute joke that this guy is still on the air, still has fans and still has an opinion that people feel is viable yet Obama who also did drugs is being crucified by others on this forum and in the media. Now I am not a fan of any of the candidates but I am a fan of fair reporting, non hypocrites and punishing people regardless of status, color, wealth or who they know. It's utter bull$hit.

Never said he did, but portraying Michelle as an AK-47 toting terrorist or Obama as a Muslim doesn't bother anyone so why should a needle in the blowhard's arm? Maybe it's the inflation point for his massive ego

What he really meant was junkies who can't buy their way out of trouble are weak, guess he doesn't realize not everyone can finance their habits with contributions from the sheep.

Is this hard to understand, somehow?
* dittohead types....
You seem to defend the muslims at every turn, delu. Why is this? Are you dating a muslim? Or are you just so enamored with barack the magic negro you cannot see anything else? I'm not a dittohead, btw, but I do listen to him for entertainment, and for little things which seem to irk you and the rest of the obamatrons so quickly. As it is, I could care less what the nyt does/says/writes, as I won't even pick up a rag out of the sewer. Are you <gasp> a muslim, i.e., terrorist luver?
