Harry Reid Hearts Rush Limbaugh

As the bidding draws to a close on his ugly smear letter, Harry Reid is now taking credit for raising money for children of fallen soldiers.

Rush Limbaugh should know that this letter that they’re auctioning is going to be something that raises money for a worthwhile cause. I don’t know what we could do more important than helping to ensure that children of our fallen soldiers and police officers who have fallen in the line of duty have the opportunity for their children to have a good education. Think of this, more than $2 million — that will really help. that’s, again, an understatement. There’s only a little bit of time left so i would ask those that are wanting to do more, that they can go to Harry Reid letter and it will come up on e-bay. I encourage anyone interested with the means  to consider contributing to this worthwhile cause. I strongly believe when we can put our differences aside, even Harry Reid and Rush Limbaugh, we should do that and try to accomplish good things for the American people. This does that, madam president. More than $2 million for a letter signed by this senator and my friends.

Hypocrisy so extreme it warps time and space.

The winner of the auction was philanthropist Betty Casey.

The Daily Kos Kooks are trying to “reframe” this as an “apology:” Daily Kos: Rush Apologizes for ‘Phony Soldier’ Insult.

And of course, it’s an “apology” they have no intention of accepting.
