Jabba the Rush: Obama has a "messianic" "God complex"
Video at Crooks and Liars

Rush Limbaugh joined Great Van Susteren last night and spent about 15 minutes bashing President Obama for everything from shaking Hugo Chavez' hand to thinking he's a GOD-like man, who has a messianic complex---who hates America which was immoral until he took office, but still he wants to destroy.

This was a particularly painful segment to watch so I just picked a few minutes out of the many distortions and smears that I could stomach. This man can spew garbage at record levels and he surely holds a place in the Guinness World Book of Records for the trash he can deliver.

Limbaugh: I think we're looking at a person with a God or messianic complex, certainly narcissistic, who looks at these trips, not just to Central America and the G20 in Europe. Looks at all these trips as making it about "him." The US is an immoral and unjust until "he" was elected...and President Obama wants to tear apart the foundation that built this country into the greatest country in the world, American exceptionalism and make it in an image that is closer to something that would be approved of by Daniel Ortega and people like Hugo Chavez.

1. I believe they call a statement like that "projection."

3. No, Rush...that's you.
You're projecting again. Tell you what, Rush, why don't we go get the nice nurse and she'll put you in that big comfy coat with the long sleeves--and we'll even bring you to that special room we talked about with the nice soft walls! How does that sound?

4. let's see, how does that go?
"anything you say sticks on you"? Anyway, it's opposite time. HE'S the one with a god complex, not Obama. And Obama is, by definition always going to be the opposite of what Rush says he is.

6. What we have here is a textbook example of projection:
Limbaugh: "I think we're looking at a person with a God or messianic complex, certainly narcissistic."

7. This coming
from a man who daily, many times daily, tells us that he has 20 million minions(listeners) to his show. Narcissitic? Rush's picture is next to that word in the dictionary.

8. Really, Rush?
Okay, I have tried to see President Obama in this light, as Rush has described him. It simply isn't there. President Obama is nothing if not humble. This is just another complete fabrication by the Reich Wing. They will do and say anything to discredit President Obama. These folks are misinformation 24/7. This is exactly like in the 1990s with President Clinton.

But, if I were a Republican, Neo-Con nutcase, I would be doing the same because there is every indication that their base laps it up. These idiots will even call President Obama a fascist because they don't even know what constitutes fascism. Now they will repeat this latest lie. again and again.

9. Didn't they try this one during the campaign?
"I'm in favor of recycling, but this is ridiculous."

10. The liberal pundits were never this openly critical of Dumbya.
OxyRush and the rightwingers must be really frustrated with Obama if they are already bringing out their biggest criticisms already. What worse thing could he say about Obama?

15. of course -
this is a man who has listeners who call themselves "Dittoheads" and repeatedly claims his "talent is on loan from God."

But Obama has the problem?

Christ.

16. Why is any time at all devoted to this man?
Limbaugh, Coulter, and the others are intended to serve as a distraction. Focus on what is going on, not those idiots.
