"It wasn't even softball — it was T-ball. Instead of possibly juxtaposing his hypocrisy regarding the sanctity of marriage or the kettle (Newt) calling the pot (impeachment-era Bill Clinton) a kettle, John King appeared to be on the take for Team Gingrich."
"Speaking of juxtaposition (great word), compare King's amateur play to the consummate pro performance of NBC News' Brian Williams on Monday night: same four debaters, same Republican audience, but with a competent, confident, fully professional referee. Brian encouraged civility and intelligence. John gave us The Jerry Springer Show. Brian Williams brought fairness and enforced the rules to keep the audience from becoming a factor. John King let 'Leaping Larry Shane' win the Big Time Wrestling match (as usual), and the crowd went wild." (continued)

Did Rush Limbaugh really call President Obama an "oreo cookie" on August 17, 2011? Yes. But Rush was just razzing the Prez about his sweet tooth. Right.
Limbaugh is just smart enough to teach his tea-drunk listeners the art of "under-the-radar racism," but just cretinous enough to think his lame plausible deniability fools anyone with a shred of integrity.
