Limbaugh Embarrasses Self

Though it's hardly news: Crooks&Liars has an mp3 of Rush dealing with a guest asking a fair question. Her point—how can the administration claim to be an effective force against terrorism when the murderer behind 9/11 inexplicably remains at large? Republican stooge Rush uses all his patented techniques:
  • he hems and haws over her while thinking of an angle that can rescue Bush's credibility
  • when he fails to come up with a defense for his hero, he condescends to the woman
  • when she gives a dignified response, he surreptitiously cuts her off and goes at her, leaving the impression that she's been rendered speechless by his aggressive avoidance of the question
The best he can come up with is that Bin Laden, the murderer of thousands of innocent citizens, is irrelevant. He neglects to mention that this is only true to the extent that the President has needlessly created new enemies that are even more dangerous.

It's a classic.
