Setting a world record today for beating a dead horse, the Democratic National Committee will announce they’ve selected an anti-Rush Limbaugh slogan to be placed on a billboard in the radio host’s hometown. The DNC began soliciting slogans a week ago in response to Limbaugh’s well-known statement that he wants President Obama to fail. “If you’re anything like me, then you’ve had the urge to talk back to a right-wing talk radio host more than a few times.

I loved the billboard picture they selected and thought it would be a great cigar ad for the Monica line of stogies.

That said, I wonder if the DNC ad violates one of the many anti-smoking laws they worked hard to pass.

. . . to be placed on a billboard in the radio host’s hometown.

Morons! They might as well buy advertising on his show. The billboard will mostly be seen by people driving to work, a constituency which is not exactly Zer0 friendly.

I can't wait to hear how El Rushbo will turn this moronic slogan back on them.

America didn’t vote for a rush to failure, but that’s what we got.

The winning slogan:
“Americans didn’t vote for a Rush to failure.”

That’s true, at least half of us didn’t! ; )

Any wagers as to how long this idiocy goes on? To my mind, this VAST LEFT WING CONSPIRACY demonstrates an almost complete failure of principled leading in favor of remaining in partisan campaigning mode!

Every time they open their mouths; they give Rush more credibility and higher ratings.

That was a surprisingly balanced article from the MSM. They had Rush's full quote and they pointed out that Carville had desired President Bush to fail right after the 2000 election.

Now if the New York Times and Washington Post start publishing the same information they might actually survive.

You have to love the DNC. THey are so concerned about the issues facing most Americans.

“Americans didn’t vote for a Rush to failure.”
How clever. Obama’s numbers must be dropping more than we have been led to believe. This smacks of desperation.

"...... how El Rushbo will turn this moronic slogan back on them".

He doesn't even have to. The slogan can also be interpreted as Americans not voting for OBAMA'S rush to failure.

The morons who selected this phrase are incredibly mired in the stupidity of their own seething rage.
