RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, I had a conversation with a friend Wednesday afternoon after the program, and he said, ‘Nobody’s criticizing Obama. How are you going to do this? How are you going to handle criticizing the first black American to run for president?’ I said, ‘I’m going to do it the way I always do it. First, at the top of the list I’m going to do it fearlessly. I’m not going to bow to political correctness. I’m going to do it with humor. I’m going to focus on the issues. I’m going to react to what he says. Simple. I’m gong to do it just like if it were any other case — he’s a man, right? He’s a liberal. How do I criticize liberals? I criticize them.’ But I have devised, ladies and gentlemen, an even more creative way of criticizing Obama. I have, just this morning, named a new position here on the staff that is the Official Obama Criticizer. The EIB Network now has an Official Obama Criticizer.
He is Bo Snerdley. We are going to illustrate the first, you might call this a pilot, but I think it’s going to work and we will do this as warranted. When Obama needs to be criticized, our official criticizer, Bo Snerdley, will do so, and we’ve got something really here to criticize. If you watched the debate last night, Obama came out with something that’s unbelievable, just unbelievable. This is what he said. Number 12, Brian.
OBAMA: I heard from a Army captain who was the head of a rifle platoon, supposed to have 39 men in a rifle platoon, ended up being sent to Afghanistan with 24 because 15 of the soldiers had been sent to Iraq, and as a consequence they didn’t have enough ammunition, they didn’t have enough Humvees. They were actually capturing Taliban weapons because it was easier to get Taliban weapons than it was for them to get properly equipped by our current commander-in-chief. Now, that’s a consequence of bad judgment, and, you know, the question is, on the critical issues that we face right now, who’s going to show the judgment to lead?RUSH: All right. I now turn the program over to our Official Obama Criticizer, Bo Snerdley.
SNERDLEY: This is Bo Snerdley, African-American in good standing and certified black enough to criticize Obama guy. Mr. Obama, the claims you raise are quite serious. The allegations are so incredulous, that, quite frankly, they are difficult to believe, and I want to believe. I want to hope for change. So, with all due respect, Senator Obama, I demand you prove it. Tell America the name of the military official you spoke with and allow an independent investigation to verify these serious allegations you raise. On behalf of our EIB brothers and sisters in the hood, we’re asking you, Mr. Obama, what’s up with that, yo? You got proof? On behalf of our Hispanic brothers and sisters, we’re asking, Señor Obama, es verdad? Okay, that’s it, Mr. Limbaugh, finally somebody might be able to make Jimmy Carter look competent.
RUSH: Thank you, Mr. Snerdley. Bo Snerdley, the official criticizer of Barack Obama. It is an unbelievable claim here, that it’s easier to get Taliban weapons and it’s easier to get Taliban ammunition than it is our own because the commander-in-chief has not got the troops properly equipped? Mr. Snerdley is right. I would like to echo Mr. Snerdley’s criticism on this program. Prove this! Where’s somebody demanding proof? Where’s somebody demanding the name of the military official that Senator Obama spoke to? This just can’t slide, folks.
