Rush On Defending The Defenseless

I found this via Fr. Z and Motley Monk:


At the beginning of “Open Line Friday,” Rush Limbaugh took President Obama to task for his priorities in the current budget debate and potential shutdown of the federal government.

Limbaugh posed this question:

Rush makes a great point!
