Once again, Rush Limbaugh, aka America's Anchorman, has shown himself invaluable in cutting through the perpetual fog of dissembling that wafts from the White House.
Limbaugh responded to the Obama administration's disclosure of yet another roving band of rabid militants that threaten the West with his characteristic insight and withering sarcasm.
After hearing Limbaugh's take on his radio show earlier this week as to why we are now hearing about the so-called "Khorasan Group," you may never hear this new name in the lexicon of Islamic fanaticism and think of it the same way. (Audio) --
LIMBAUGH: And the way the left is rationalizing all of this, ladies and gentlemen, is that George W. Bush's war on terror was a dumb war and Obama's is a smart war. Well, they're not, yeah, depending on where you look they're calling it a war but they're still calling it an action and they're saying that Obama's doing it a smart way and, of course, Bush was dumb, shouldn't have gone there in the first place. But you know, back to this Khorasan Group. They come out of nowhere, named by the administration just in the pasy couple of days, well, in the past week sometime. Is there any doubt, if Obama hadn't been running around bragging about taking out al Qaeda and wiping out bin Laden and thus ending al Qaeda, would we even have heard the name Khorasan Group? But because Obama's been running around bragging about taking out al Qaeda, starting at the Democrat convention in 2012, OK, al Qaeda hasn't gone away, so the regime has to give them a new name to make it look like it's a new group, after Obama wiped out al Qaeda. But it's just, it's al Qaeda.
Now we have a couple of John Kerry bites, let's listen to these, we've got the audio sound bites of what I saw but didn't see on CNN today with Lurch (Kerry) speaking with Christiane Amanpour. Her question -- the Khorasan plot, Mr. Secretary, can you confirm precisely what it was and the imminence of it.
KERRY: These are remnants of core al Qaeda. These are people who were definitively plotting against the United States and the West. It is true that we didn't put a lot of public focus on it because we really didn't want people particularly, we didn't want them to know that we were in fact tracking them as effectively as we were. So this would have happened with or without ISIL. There were active plots against our country, we knew where they were, and we did what we needed to do.
AMANPOUR: Can you tell us ...
LIMBAUGH (initially mimicking Amanour): Can you tell us, no, there's nothing I can tell you 'cause they're making all this stuff up. So ... here it is, they are remnants of core al Qaeda. See, we wiped out al Qaeda. That's what you are supposed to take with you from it, we wiped al Qaeda. Obama did it. Bush, dumb war, he failed to get al Qaeda. There were no weapons of mass destruction, Bush is an idiot, he's a cowboy, Obama's brilliant, he's a smart commander in chief despite the styrofoam cup salute to the Marines, he's still a smart commander in chief and he knows how to do these things. He wiped al Qaeda out and now he comes the remnants of core al Qaeda which we wiped out. But we must have missed a couple of those maggots and so they've formed a new group called the Khorasan and we're on 'em and we've been on 'em and we knew what they were going to do but we didn't tell anybody about it 'cause we didn't want to let them know what we knew that they knew that we know how we were going to wipe 'em out.
Once again, Limbaugh demonstrates the actual basis for liberals' enmity toward him -- little they do is lost on him, and they hate him for seeing right through them.
