Axelrod: Limbaugh Has His Own Experiences With The Law
David Axelrod went on CNN this afternoon to talk up Sonia Sotomayor's stellar legal experience -- and to point out the record of her most prominent critic:
"And for people like Rush Limbaugh, and I don't know what he -- you know, he has his own experiences with the law," said Axelrod. "Maybe he makes his own judgments based on that."
It's worth remembering that the White House really likes focusing on Rush Limbaugh as an opponent in any debate. This is yet another example.

Rush is very empathetic with rich, fat, white dope addicts.

I'm not British, and I don't overuse the word, but that is brilliant . . . just empathetically feeling for the source of Limbaugh's crazy rants, Axelrod nails him with a booming left hook.
Axelrod deserves every penny he was paid (and all the pennies Mark Penn was paid).

Only thing that would have improved this clip is a flash of the Bouncy Rush down in the corner.
Hooyah.

I heart David Axelrod. I really do. Have for some time. I enjoy his snark tremendously.

"And for people like Rush Limbaugh, and I don't know what he -- you know, he has his own experiences with the law," said Axelrod. "Maybe he makes his own judgments based on that."
Those are about as succinct a group of words explaining volumes as I have heard.
That's the kind of talk we love to hear in the Mountains.
Thanks Mr. Axelrod

YES!!!!
Thank you, David Axelrod.
Tough, tough jab. Well-deserved, and we know it hurts Rush.
(Just like that wonderful huffing-and-puffing Rush that now appears in the corner of all COUNTDOWN broadcasts)
Let's keep pushing him and see what happens.

You know what they say, if you poke a fat, drug-addled, self-important balloon with enough feathers, it'll eventually pop.
Hey, I'm sure somebody says that.

When will someone, maybe Ana Marie Cox, bring up that Rush drove himself deaf with Vicodin abuse? That is how he lost his hearing. That is why when he went deaf, he went to Dr. Jennifer Derriberry, at House Med Clinic IN LOS ANGELES; the discoverer and biggest expert in Vicodin induced deafness. SOMEBODY, SHOVE THAT IN RUSH'S FACE!!!
