In response to the Republican-initiated Congressional resolutions condemning the MoveOn ad about Petraeus, some House Dems have drafted a resolution condemning Rush Limbaugh's dismissal of troops opposing the Iraq war as "phony soldiers." But unlike the Dems who caved on the MoveOn issue, the Repubs are unified in support of Rush. Says
Jack Kingston (R-GA):
“He is a talk show host. He has a right to speak out and say what he thinks.”
Of course! And grassroots political organizations like MoveOn
don't. It all makes sense now.
If only Bush supporters applied this open-mindedness to political cartoons they don't like.
Mr. Kingston is preparing a resolution
praising Limbaugh if the Dems move forward with their resolution.
