Rush Limbaugh Explains What ‘Community Organizers’ Actually Are: Dangerous Bullies

(By Jon Bershad, Mediaite) - We all know that, before he entered the White House, Barack Obama spent some time as a community organizer. But what is that? Sure, it sounds nice and friendly but the truth is much more dangerous. [Friday] on his radio show, Rush Limbaugh explained what community organizing is actually all about (“intimidation, bullying”) and warned that, the more defeats the Democrats see, the more “organizing” we’ll be subjected to!

What was Limbaugh basing this all on? Well, the protests in Wisconsin which he said demonstrated exactly what Obama’s brand of community organizing is all about.




Rush Limbaugh: “You just saw what community organizing is. You saw it for weeks. It’s $7.5 million in damages to the state capital. It’s vandalism. It is pollution. It is litter. It’s spittle-flecked faces storming their way into the building with open windows. It is an attempt to shut down the normal Democratic flow of government operations. You just saw community organizing. You just watched it.”
