New York, Oct 11 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Joe Scarborough poked fun at Rush Limbaigh’s comment that, Colin Powell is a liberal. “When I hear Rush Limbaugh and others calling Colin Powell a ‘liberal’ I just have to laugh because there is nothing liberal about Colin Powell’s approach towards foreign policy,” he said. “So what is a conservative? A conservative conserves taxpayer dollars. A conservative doesn’t engage in military adventurism. A conservative doesn’t add seven trillion dollars to entitlement programs that are already going bankrupt. A conservative shows restraint.”
Joe carried the tirade forward when he said that ‘Limbaugh’s joy over Chicago’s Olympics failure isn’t helpful to the Republican party.’
Rush Limbaugh returned back the favor in kind. He also spoke against his rival in bitter and sarcastic words.
Limbaugh said Scarborough was doing his “best impression of a neutered chickified moderate” when he spoke out against him.
“This can’t be helpful for our political process for Limbaugh to be laughing with glee that Obama failed in Copenhagen,” Limbaugh said breathlessly, imitating Scarborough.
“I guess Joe wants to sell another couple of books to go with the 1,000 he already sold by pitching it to Democrats and moderates.”
In other news, Rush Limbaugh was also nominated as one of the seven judges for Miss America 2010.
