Cheney On Limbaugh: "I Love Him" (VIDEO)

Many Republican leaders have squirmed lately when asked about Rush Limbaugh, fearful of angering the conservative talk show host but not willing to endorse his most incendiary remarks. Not so Dick Cheney, who offered a full-throated defense of Limbaugh on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday:

Q: What next for your party? There has been a big dust-up in recent days, in parts stoked by the White House, about Rush Limbaugh making some comments. David Frum, a conservative who worked in your administration, says that Rush Limbaugh is kryptonite, because he drives away the voters the Republicans need to build the road to discovery. Is Rush Limbaugh kryptonite?

CHENEY: No, Rush is a good friend. I love him. I think he does great work and has for years. He's now offered to debate President Obama on his radio show. Hell, I'd pay to see that! It would be interesting to have developed.

Well if el Rushbowl is such a good friend, hopefully D i c k will take him hunting soon.

Both are obsolete and young voters will continue to prove that.

Hmmmm.....­..me thinks the President is doing everything just right.

"Rush is a good friend". "I love him". "He does great work." "Rush is a good man."

The man with these statements ruled America's only weeks ago... I wanna throw up...

Cheney should be charged for crimes related to torture and politicizing US Attorneys offices.

Rush should be ignored.

Radio stations need to adhere to "equal time" for different political views.

Great, bring Larry Craig into your group for that well deserved, long overdue 3-some you've been fantasizing about and celebrate the launching of the 'Jerks Gone Wild' video series to help fund your charitable humanitarian foundations.

Well folks, all of my comments are being blocked, and I must say they probably needed to be.

Just imagine what was written...­exactly what I feel about this guy.

[Decipherer]

The cen.sor gno.mes have been very active on this post, it seems, and every bit as arbitrary.

[kittyma]

Cheney too wants to see Obama fail. I think he wants to see America attacked so that he can say "I told you so". And God help us, heaven knows how he would help it along! This man likes himself. He does not like America.

[Counterpunch]

When Dickie is charged with war crimes that will wipe that sh#t-eating grin off his ugly face.

[nowRnever]

Birds of a feather...

cheney loves limbaugh w/video. ewe.

[redsongia]

Not a shock, Dick. You are his exclusive demographic.

Why am I not surprised. They both wear arrogance soooo well.

And the way the media has been treating Cheney, I think they really envy him. That is the only thing to explain why he is showing up giving all these interviews and none of these so called Journalists challenging him on any issue. Why challenge a person without a conscious. It's clear Cheney does not give a damn and neither does Rush. All of the decisions he helped Bush make was right and he don't care what we idiots in this country feel.

I remember his attitude towards the war in Iraq. He did not care that it was the wrong decision. In his mind the world is a better place without Sadam..I guess people like Cheney and Rush are so RIGHTEOUS in their own mind they dictate who should lead and who shouldn't.
