Limbaugh threatened two months ago to sue the DCCC, so where’s the lawsuit?

Conservative radio titan Rush Limbaugh was so incensed by a Democratic group’s fundraising appeals that quoted some of his on-air comments that he took an unusual step: He threatened to sue the group for defamation.

With a high-powered lawyer in his corner, Limbaugh demanded that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in Washington apologize and retract its characterization of his comments — or else.

“Mr. Limbaugh has authorized this firm to promptly commence litigation against the DCCC if it refuses to retract its defamatory statements,” wrote Limbaugh’s attorney, Patricia L. Glaser, in a Nov. 6 letter to the organization.

But exactly two months later, there has been no apology and no retraction. And no lawsuit. Limbaugh and his attorney have said nothing more about the matter, suggesting that their legal threats may have been more talk than action.

1. Where's the GOP Congress suit against Obama?

The vast majority of lawsuit threats never turn into lawsuits.

The vast majority of lawsuits settle before ever seeing a judge.

Where he said he'd move if the ACA was still law 5 years after being passed.
