Maybe he actually believes that Obama's policy's are extremely bad and harmful for the country? Is that a possibility?
The thing with Obama's college paper was, Rush did say it was a hoax. But all the people who had to retract his supposed racist comments in the media said "but, we know Rush believes it."
Which is the same thing you're doing, "But, we know he has bad motives."
That was the joke, Rush was saying "Fine, it's not true, but I'll say he still really means it since that's what they are saying about me."
You can read his words of what that whole thing was about, or just make your mind up over "some soundbyte" that you heard. I'd say being actually informed on something always has more validity to it:
Ignorant Media Misses Our Satiric Tweak on the Obama Thesis Hoax
It's funny you say that he must just hate Obama, then go on to point out all the deficiencies Rush has, and that is followers have. Sounds to me like you have your own preconceptions and that nothing anyone else says can change that. Which is what you're accusing Rush and his listeners of doing.
I got to say, I made a really long post about this topic, addressing many of the points made and it's like I never even posted it. It's disappointing that people are unwilling to even question their assumptions. No one wants to read the other side they just see "Rush Limbaugh" in a thread title and think "Ooh! I'm going to criticize Rush Limbaugh! Fun!"
I'm glad amj took the time to talk about this stuff. At least it shows he's willing to listen to the other side and seriously consider what they're saying, THEN give his opinion on what has been said.
But like I said way, way before, it's Limbaugh. Everyone says he's a bad guy, so it must be true.
