Aw, Man, Logic Wins Again, Curse You Logic!! [The Token Moonbat]

And here I thought they nailed that bastard, but, read the bold print.

he told his audience that he had a new name for Senator Chuck Hagel: "Senator Betrayus."

Hm, let's see about that.

On September 10, MoveOn.org's much-discussed advertisement headlined "General Petraeus or General Betray Us?" critical of Gen. David Petraeus, appeared in The New York Times. On the September 11 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh called the advertisement "contemptible" and "indecent." However, months earlier, on his radio show, he told his audience that he had a new name for Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE): "Senator Betrayus." On the January 25 broadcast (subscription required) of his radio show, Limbaugh broke from his commentary on an interview of Vice President Dick Cheney on the January 24 edition of CNN's The Situation Room to say: "By the way, we had a caller call, couldn't stay on the air, got a new name for Senator Hagel in Nebraska, we got General Petraeus and we got Senator Betrayus, new name for Senator Hagel." A day earlier, Hagel had sided with Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in voting to approve a nonbinding resolution declaring that Bush's escalation in Iraq was against "the national interest."

See, it was a caller to the show that called Hagel "Senator Betrayus." It wasn't Rush Limbaugh who came up with the name.

Of course, when did facts get in the way of Media Matters?

I found this at Kos, by the way, but I decided not to link that insane asylum.

Okay, I've changed my mind, so you can enjoy the juicy comments.

The Token Moonbat is not really a moonbat.

The Token Moonbat reads moonbat sites so you don't have to.

The Token Moonbat will appear as often as Open Blog lives.
