Limbaugh calls Obama 'Jackass,' 'Economic Ignoramous'

Ever-controversial Rush Limbaugh blew the top off the radio dial yesterday, lambasting Barack Obama for his handling of the nation's economy. The radio talker was referring to Mr. Obama's recent meeting with his Economic Recovery Advisory Board where he claimed that the wealthy would “take our ball and go home” if their tax cuts were not extended. "Nobody's taxes are getting cut here." Limbaugh said of the president's policies, "Obama's going to raise taxes."

Responding to the president's metaphor that the wealthy would "take our ball and go home." Limbaugh replied, “Mr. Obama, our imam-child, they have already taken their trillion dollar ball home, and they’re sitting on it, you jackass.” "Extend the tax cut to everybody, and you'll inspire confidence," Limbaugh said, noting that by extending the Bush "tax cuts" investors and business people would free up some of the money they have been cautiously holding onto in leiu of government policy and hire more people.

Because the president is not pursuing such policies, Limbaugh said of Obama, "He's a jackass. He's an economic illiterate. He's an economic ignoramus.”
“And that's being charitable.”
