After Obama criticized Rush Limbaugh he moved on to criticizing the people of the Washington, D.C. metro area for our global cooling.

The severe cold set in early this week with freezing rain and snow and ice. Schools were closed to keep our children safe from accidents on the roads and walking accidents. Power lines popping---trees popping from ice.

This is the Hawaiian dude who never had to struggle to go to school------never had to go to the hospital with a broken ankle, a fall on the ice-----insensitive dude.

Of course he is now in the White House-----doesn't have to drive an hour to get to work, doesn't have to shop for food, have his car slide off of the beltway---or get hit by a sliding big-mac truck. Or, shovel and chip ice on the sidewalks and driveways.

And, yes his remarks were widely reported on the television stations.

Somebody give him a snow shovel and bag of salt and put him to work.

"On Jan. 23, it was widely reported that Obama had admonished invertebrate GOP leaders that "You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," during their visit to the White House to discuss his proposed $825 billion economic stimulus package. This is generally considered – given the president's stated intentions during the campaign – to be the prelude to an all-out war on conservative media outlets and personalities.

That a sitting president would attack a private citizen on a point directly concerning the First Amendment should have caused such an uproar in the press as to shift the Earth's axis. Yet, what's the news story? Limbaugh's response. In fact, the upshot appears to have originated in some sci-fi parallel universe where everything contradicts reason: On Wednesday, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee launched an online petition to express outrage toward comments made by the radio host vis-à-vis Obama's statement."
