1. Don't wrestle with a pig in the mud. You'll just get dirty, and the pig will enjoy it. n/m

5. Ends with:
I think a lot of people would like to see this event. It might not be exactly what Rush envisioned, though. I suspect he fantasized that Obama would call in to his show, and he could put him on hold, and then tell his audience: "Look! I put the President of the United States on hold! I'm Rush Limbaugh!" Rush could then interrupt and re-direct the conversation with his sweeping unanswerable questions, like: "Where is the compromise between good and evil? Should Jesus have cut a different deal?" And then he could play his ring tone of "Barack the Magic Negro," and ask Obama what's so offensive about it.

Or, maybe not. Maybe Rush Limbaugh is a bitter, bullying, bloviating blowhard bent on bashing anything that allows him to argue arrogantly about any ideas that he can tie back to himself, without fear of accountability. Maybe given the opportunity to see these two men compared together, many other people would see that as well.

7. Rush Limbaugh should debate..
Randi Rhodes, or Rachel Maddow. Make sure he has a hefty supply of Oxy for when he gets a new one ripped.

8. Since when did Rush debate anyone?
Oh you mean on air on his little smug radio station where Rush controls everything? So the president of the United States goes to let Rush interview him in his radio station at his request?

Apparently the shock jock really thinks he is important...

9. I don't like it when the President
even mentions Limbaugh. It just feeds his psychosis.

10. from the article:
"What's more, I propose a series of debates. No hurry, I expect the time would be in late fall of 2012. By that point, Limbaugh would have secured the Republican nomination for President, and in the tradition of our great country, it would be his right to debate the incumbent president. Since Limbaugh has so much to say, I am sure he would be very eager for a face-to-face opportunity to tell the president, and the world, how he will lead the country in the right direction, back to 1981."
