Limbaugh On Garner: The Left Wanted A Powerful State, So There

Posted by | December 7, 2014 12:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories


Rush Limbaugh thinks the left must be happy with police officers who took Eric Garner down and then choked him to death. To him, it’s always the left that is responsible for every terrible thing that happens.

Limbaugh appeared on Fox News Sunday to bemoan the “grievance industry” that is “literally ripping our fabric apart.”

Limbaugh said that the aftermath of the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases called for inspirational leadership from President Barack Obama, who instead was amplifying historical racial divisions for his own political gain.

“There’s no acknowledgement of any the progress,” Limbaugh said. (Actually Obama explicitly acknowledged racial progress in an interview with George Stephanopoulos two weeks ago.) “If you listen to these people, the president, the mayor of New York, you’d think it was two hundred years ago. You’d think we hadn’t even started working on these problems, and that’s not true.”

Limbaugh said he no longer believed the Garner case involved a chokehold (“What are you talking about?” Wallace asked) and that the incident would not have occurred were the left not “so eager for tax collection.”

“How many cops descended on that situation for cigarettes?” he said. “How many people smoking marijuana did the cops ignore on the way to Eric Garner?…I think the real outrage here is an American died while the state is enforcing tax collection on cigarettes! It’s absurd. People talk about the left, they want a big state, they want a powerful state. Well, here it is.”

    Limbaugh’s Lipstick is smeared all over his face like a hillbilly heroin addict. Rusty the racist is so delusional he melts down. Limbaugh said he no longer believed the Garner case involved an illegal chokehold (“WTF! Are you talking about?” Wallace asked)

    “Jabba the Rush” is right about one thing… the “grievance industry that is literally ripping our fabric apart” does in fact exist… and HE is it’s leader and fact-averse proponent!
