Limbaugh Gets Lashed By a Listener

By Countdown

Last week, a concerned Marine veteran called in to criticize Rush Limbaugh on his nationally broadcast radio show for Limbaugh's "sour grapes" opposition to President Obama and his misguided support for torture, which led the caller to suggest that Limbaugh is "a brainwashed Nazi." This is uncharacteristic criticism of "Boss" Limbaugh, a man both feared and adored within the Republican Party. Chris Hayes, The Nation's Washington DC editor, suggests Limbaugh has led the GOP "off the cliff" and more internal dissention will be necessary if Republicans hope to find their way back out of "the canyon."
