Rush Limbaugh Talks About Why Michelle Obama Shouldn't Wear Yellow (VIDEO)

During the Q & A portion of Rush Limbaugh's radio show last week, the pundit entertained a caller who wanted to talk about Michelle Obama's style, Mediaite writes.

The woman, identified only as Laura from Bremerton, Washington, rasped, "I am so sick and tired of hearing about our First Lady and her fashions. Every time I see her and they start talking about how fashionable she is and the colors she wears, I think about that old story, 'The Emperor's New Clothes.'" She added, "Every time [Michelle] dresses in yellow, I keep expecting some little kid to pop up and say, 'She looks like a bowl of mustard.'"

Rush asks Laura to dig deeper on the color issue, to which she responds, if the media does anything other than praise Michelle, "they'll be marked as racist, probably." Oh, wait...you mean the clothing color issue. The caller fielded that one, too. She explained, "My particular skin color, I cannot wear orange. Because it makes me look orange. My cousin is a beautiful redhead and she cannot wear different shades of red." Rush confessed he, himself, was donning an orange polo, but is typically told "it's a little bit of a too soft pastel color for me."

Then Rush veers toward discussing the First Lady's figure. He remarks, "I'm not going to say what I think about her shape. I'm not really sure what it is. I can't win this."

No, Rushy boy, you can't.

Rush doesn't need to talk about anyone's appearance.

This man cannot see his private area when he bathes, he needs to shout that hole in his face. Also why doesn't he look in the mirror at himself before dogging someone about weight.

I am personally no fan of Michelle Obams's fashion style, but this man hit below the belt. IF HE WORE YELLOW HE WOULD LOOK LIKE BIG BIRD ON SESAME STREET.

At least Rush wears clothes while on the air.

Is it normal for someone who's both huge and unattractive to constantly denigrate someone else physically? I don't think it is Rush. Every time you do it, I'm looking at you and vomiting in my mouth a little.

This man needs to sit down somewhere. If he would call me I'd hang the phone up.

Rush can't wear his orange polo at Halloween, for fear of getting carved.

He's just jealous they don't make that dress in his size.

If he could wear a dress it would be yellow

Classic difference between Black and White men. White men like them "thinner" and Black men like them "thicker". I absolutely love our FLOTUS. Love, love, love her...

Michele's shape is real - Rush's is just really bad.

Rush's favorite pasttime is taking cheap pot shots at the Obamas. The clothing color issue was just a metaphor for race. It's always about race with him and his views are always obnoxiously regressive. And it has nothing at all to do with Barack's policies.

"I'm not going to say what I think about her shape. I'm not really sure what it is." Rush, that's because the only shape you think that bodies come in is huge, round ones, like yours. Women who are tall and svelte (but not stick thin - with real muscles) intimidate you. Just admit it already.

BTW Rush, thanks for not commenting on Michelle's shape. You saved yourself a great deal of embarrassment since you are in no positon to comment on anyone's shape, figure or physical attritubutes.
