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.

Look at the mess they left this country in, and he loves Rush, Rush is offering more of the same S%$t
that got us in this mess. keeping the rich richer while sqeezing the middle class workers. Rush and Chaney are some of the few Americans that is now financial FAT CATS and they want to keep it way.

Who do you think provided Rush with his "talking points" for eight years?

Here is why rush will NEVER debate anyone again. He will never leave the confines of his studio because this is what happens.....when you can't pick your audience.

WOW. This needs more exposure.

[hmmmmmer]

As long as this man and LImbaugh are the face of the Republican party, free thinking people will never allow them to have any power again.

I've always thought Cheney was behind all the snarkiness of the Republican Party. His kind is why their party is so depressing. I could never join a party of Cheney and Rush. I'd try to start a new party if that was my party. How about the GOPS party. Grand Ole Perverts of Snarkiness party, OOPS, we already have that one, don't we?

Birds of a feather...

What a raging endorsement. It worked out well for McCain too when Cheney got his back during the GE. LOL.

Rush limbaugh is an entertainer, as such any talk of the President of the United States debating him is ridiculous and demeaning to all citizens who participate in our democracy. Lets remember that Limbaughs twenty million or so listerners per week dont add up to crap when compared to the entire population of the US. Jk Rowling has had more influence that limbaugh ever will.

Bloody idiot.

[Zenomi]

Many things surprise me about Cheney, like how they keep him alive after all of his medical problems. But it is no surprise that he loves and admires his true soulmate Rush.

It's all that oil in his blood...ooops! OUR blood... it was OUR oil after all before he drilled it and sold it to the munitions industry to fuel the vehicles our children are being killed in every day...

Say it ain't so, DlCK!

[dillydawg]

Birds of a feather.

[MissingAmerica]

My thoughts exactly!

[GhiseldaManifesto]

Maybe Dick should take Limbaugh hunting.

[Bluejay00234]

Really now.

[Middleclassvotingbloc]

Of course he loves him, Limbaugh is the only friend he has left, other than his family and dog. Hate bequest hate.
