Texas Senator Cornyn Pushes Petition In Support Of Limbaugh

Continuing the ring-kissing, Texas Senator John Cornyn wants his fellow Republicans to sign a petition that says the Democratic attack on Rush Limbaugh is “an outrage.”

In his letter, Cornyn argues that President Obama’s staff “has been caught engaging in a coordinated and cynical political attack game – the very diversion and manipulation then-candidate Obama attacked the McCain campaign for last year.

“The apparent goal of this strategy was to distract public attention from the Democrats’ massive spending proposals by depicting Rush Limbaugh as the new face of the Republican Party….

“This is an outrage. It appears the Obama Administration has forgotten that the salaries of White House staff are paid for by you the taxpayer. To say nothing of the fact that this story reeks of hypocrisy coming from a President who campaigned against these very cynical political tactics last fall.”

Nice to know that taxpayer-funded Senator is spending his time defending a talk show host that every Republican is scared to offend.  The reason Democrats can say Limbaugh is the head of the Republican Party with impunity is that Republicans refuse to say that he isn’t.
