Plus, with all his wealth, Rush couldn't afford to buy this kind of publicity. Some have argued that Rush is stepping into a trap somehow. I think the arrogant dorks of the Bammy regime jumped one shark too many. Only an idiot takes on a radio celebrity with 25 million listeners a week and who owns his own show so no one can tell him what to say or not to say. There are tens of millions of Americans who haven't listened to Rush before, but who will have their curiosity tweaked by this attack from the grease-stained White House Obama-Rahm-O-mama buttboy team.

You nailed it. Rush and his sponsors must be laughing all the way to the bank. Every day that Obama talks about Rush he adds more and more listeners. Rush is increasing his audience. He's smart enough to keep tweaking Obama and his lackies and keep the fight going to keep his name out there.

Kinda reminds me of that classic warning, that politicians shouldn’t pick fights with someone who buys ink by the barrel!

Rush set him up, plain and clear. Now he’s laughing all the way to the bank, and has in a sense, immunized himself against any “fairness” doctrine. Now such a move would be clearly seen as retaliation against Rush.

Obama is a Harvard lawyer? Really? And he still walked into such an easily avoided trap? I can’t imagine him in a courtroom.
