This is an interesting quote:
It's far more desperate than the president's policies are taking us in the wrong direction. His policies are illegitimate when contrasted with the United States of America as founded.
Not wrong or misguided, but "illegitimate when contrasted with the United States of America as founded." That's an astonishingly broad standard. I do not take it to mean that Obama, as a black man, should be a slave, not a president. Even Limbaugh isn't that crude. But this standard must violate every subsequent amendment, every subsequent court ruling, every social change, and especially the New Deal, social security and a military being more powerful than all the others in the world put together.
Is Limbaugh actually saying that all policies that would not be considered in the 1770s are illegitimate today?
