It was the first thing I thought when I saw the picture.

Wouldn't of made more sense for them to use Rush's face in the billboard??

After hiring Shepherd Fairey to design a poster and sending it to street teams across America to wheatpaste up illegally around towns (Obama's HOPE/CHANGE portraits), I'm surprised the DNC didn't go ahead and hire a similar artist to rework billboards with their anti-Rush message.

Barack Obama is certainly pushing legislation through the tubes without any time for congressmen to actually read what they are voting for it.

If there is any Russian/Rushing to failure going on, it’s Mr. Obama doing it.

They don't have the guts to call because they know he would chew them up and spit them out.

Same reason Obama won't go on his show and debate him, even with a teleprompter.

Seems to me, for most folks who don't know anything about this Rush Limbaugh flap, this billboard looks like a condemnation of Obama.

The cigar toting white guy could be all the fatcat CEOS who are getting bailouts. The all caps text even hides the proper name Rush. This billboard is likely to backfire on the democrats.

MiGawd... can't you just hear Rush introducing every show from now on with "Welcome to the EIB Network on America's xxxth day of rushing to failure." Could the Dems have chosen a more double-edged sword?

Heck, with that cigar pointed like a gun and the black suit white shirt it looks like James Bond.

Americans didn’t vote for a rush to failure...but that is what they got.

Rush was laughing about this because they think the billboard is where he lives, but it isn’t; he lives elsewhere.

This billboard thing fits in well with Camille Paglia’s statement about Hussein’s flying monkey being like a bunch of drunk frat boys. “We put up a sii-iign. Na na na na na na.”

This is so incredibly juvenile, I can’t even believe that it isn’t satire.

We are in bizarro world.

Let's put it up right under this one. It could read:

"But they sure as hell got one."

Am I the only one thinking that Rush would just copy these billboards, slap the call sign and frequency of this local affiliate on them, and use them himself?

This effort reminds me of one of Goebbels well remembered failures. The Nazi's put out a leaflet calling Churchill a gangster, with this photo:

The British public loved the photo of Churchill with a Tommy Gun, and the Nazi propaganda leaflet made him more popular.
