“Did you know there’s a White House dog?” he asked coily and all of a sudden the picture of Socks in the corner was replaced with an image of a thirteen-year-old Chelsea Clinton.”

Didnt happen that way. Ivins lied or made a mistake.

LIMBAUGH: Thank you. This show’s era of dominant influence is just beginning. We are now the sole voice of sanity, the sole voice of reason. We are the sole voice of opposition on all television. This is the only place you can tune to to get the truth of the opposition of the one-party dictatorial government that now will soon run America. Oh, I mean, we are only beginning to enjoy dominance and prosperity. Most of these things on the in-out list are not even funny, but a couple of them–one of them in particular is.

David Hinckley of–of the New York Daily News wrote this, and what he has–he’s got–it’s very strange. He says, In: A cute kid in the White House. Out: Cute dog in the White House.’ Could–could we see the cute kid? Let’s take a look at- -see who is the cute kid in the White House.

(A picture is shown of Millie the dog)

LIMBAUGH: (Voiceover) No, no, no. That’s not the kid.

LIMBAUGH: (Voiceover) That’s–that’s the kid. We’re trying to…

Because it was a mistake, someone did screw up, which led to that guys firing.

“but this explanation fails even the most elementary scrutiny. If Chelsea’s picture wasn’t supposed to go up for that line, what picture was?”

As the transcript shows, Chelsea’s pic WAS supposed to go up when he asked for a pic of the “cute kid”.

Rush Limbaugh is really for the Clintons. He is really tricking some of the “not so educated republicans” into thinking they are playing a dirty little trick on the democrats. Many of my republican friends caught on to what he is trying to do. The sad thing is so many republicans have fallen for it. He does not want McCain in office. Republicans in PA….wake-up and stop drinking the kool-aid. It is a trick people.

Ya know, that’s starting to look like the whole point of Rush being out–plausible deniability, so that the Clintons can say, well, at least he wasn’t on WITH Rush.

I touched on that a bit too. It’s amazing how little play that seemed to have gotten until lately. I suppose Clinton could say that he was being ‘post-partisan’ and that it was Mark Davis rather than Rush hosting. Ha.
