What Rush Said February 25, 2011: Obama = Nero
In context of discussion about questionable Obama responses to events in Libya - after a caller expressed dismay at the fact the White House was holding a Motown celebration while the Middle East is, "going to hell in a hand-basket," the discussion turned to the seemingly excessive amounts of parties and vacations the First Family has. The comparison to the phrase about ancient Roman ruler Nero was made by EIB* staff. That of the legendary situation of Nero fiddling** while Rome burned. Rush provided an ancient history lesson, remarking, according to the tale, that Nero set the fire, then played a fiddle while Rome burned. Rush further explained that Nero wanted to rebuild Rome in his image. He left the Obama-is-like-Roman-Emperor-Nero comparison there for the audience to draw their own own conclusions.

Rush describes the Obama presidency as reckless and lawless. He references everything from Obama ignoring federal law, undermining states, and his lackluster and uneven response to the ongoing events in the Middle East.

What Rush Said February 1, 2011
Just a quick highlight that came up at the end of the program. Rush said, that maybe we can get Mubarak to get Obama to step down. Funny.
