NEW YORK – Rush Limbaugh has seldom been a fan of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. But the conservative radio pundit has given his blessing to her selection as the next secretary of state.
He calls it "a brilliant stroke" by President-elect Barack Obama, who opposed Clinton for the Democratic nomination.
Limbaugh weighs in on the new administration as one of Barbara Walters' "10 Most Fascinating People of 2008," which airs Thursday on ABC.
Says Limbaugh: "You know the old phrase, 'You keep your friends close and your enemies closer?' How can she run for president in 2012? She'd have to run against the incumbent and be critical of him — the one who made her secretary of state."
On Monday, Obama announced Clinton as his nominee for secretary of state.
Says Limbaugh: "You know the old phrase, 'You keep your friends close and your enemies closer?' How can she run for president in 2012? She'd have to run against the incumbent and be critical of him — the one who made her secretary of state."
if you don't already believe she could easily do just that, it only cements my opinion that you are a fucking douche-drinking moron, rush.
HOW IS THAT AN ISSUE? IN THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF THE PRESIDENCY, ONLY ONE TIME WAS THE INCUMBENT NOT ASKED BY HIS PARTY TO SEEK REELECTION. SHE HAS NO HOPE OF GETTING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S ENDORSEMENT, AND IT WOULD BE POLITICAL SUICIDE TO RUN AS AN INDEPENDENT. HER BEST HOPE IS TO LAY LOW FOR THE NEXT EIGHT YEARS, SHUT THE FUCK UP, DO A SPECTACULAR JOB AS SECSTATE, AND THEN WITH THAT ON HER RESUME RUN IN 2016.
NO HANDLEBARS HAN SHOT. FIRST! PERIOD. NO HANDLEBARS MORE COWBELL! NO HANDLEBARS GO FUCK YOURSELF™
I'm sooooo glad I have Rush Limbaugh's approval in picking out my cabinet. I picked Hilary because she's a tenacious hardcase who won't take BS from any foreigners.
By the way Rush, those who can do. Those who cannot, bitch about it on the radio.
