Rush Limbaugh Plays "Feliz Navidad" To "Reach Out To The Hispanic Community"

You can't make this stuff up. He has said the GOP lost because you can't beat Santa Claus, so now he targets Latinos specifically with that charge as to why they voted for the president.

Keep it up, Rush. Way back in 1994, you were honored by the GOP as the "majority maker." Now you're determined to be the "minority maker," and it's working. Congrats.

He's still the worst.

Or drop dead. His reckless rhetoric has poisoned the already feeble minded. Then again, as long as he is the head of the Republican Party, it will FAIL, and that makes me very happy.

He was taking calls only from Latinos and kept ranting on about how he is the source of all problems, all woes of the Republicans, he needs to shut down his show, etc, etc.

I must say, I'm sorry I missed the Feliz Navidad portion.

Rush has engaged in so much mockery for so long,
that even if he realizes he needs Latinos votes,
he may not be able to win them back

because even when he's sincere, he sounds like he's mocking.

PigBoy is great for liberals.

He embodies the conservative shit-for-brains types.

Let's hope he starts talking about sluts who use birth control again very close to the 2014 election.

9. Yeah, his Sandra Fluke comments set the tone for this election

Demonstrated the misogyny of the GOP as practiced by its "leader," and Akin and Mourdock and others just put exclamation points on it.

He cost the GOP millions of votes this time around. Thanks, Rush.

13. Texas had put in a transvaginal ultrasound law before Virginia. Before Rushs comments. No one said

anything. It was the publicity over Rush's statements that made everyone stand up and take notice that this kind of thing was going on.

Here's one of those statements you don't think you are ever going to say: we need to leave Rush right where he is.

In fact the GOP should do more of this. I can't wait to see their plan to attract African Americans.

11. Yeah, THAT will help. It's about the dumbest "Hispanic" song in history.

It ranks right up there with "Copacabana". That shithead needs to try to extract his head from his asshole and think about reality. Okay, okay, I'm dreaming there. It isn't going to happen.

El Fatso has probably done more for our cause than anybody outside of Dubya. By all means, keep it up, you racist slob.
