You\u2019re gonna have to deal with this. You\u2019re gonna have to do something about this. They had the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday night. There\u2019s a new name for this thing called the &#8220;Nerd Prom.&#8221; The Nerd Prom. That was one of the Twitter hashtags for the event. And that\u2019s quite apt, because politics, as I have often described it, is show biz for the ugly. And that\u2019s what the White House correspondents dinner was. It\u2019s their big Oscar night. It\u2019s where they all get together and it\u2019s a circle thing.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_61864\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaLaughingNerdProm.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Suzanne Malveaux, you should see, somebody sent me her tweets. She was tweeting all night. I mean, I haven\u2019t seen &#8212; if these were really her, and it looked like they were to me &#8212; I haven\u2019t seen this kind of groupie-ism in years. I mean for rock stars, for anybody. She was totally enthralled being anywhere near Obama, in the same room with Obama, at all the parties after with the celebrities. In addition to compromising so-called journalistic objectivity, that\u2019s out the window with these tweets, it was beyond that. It was embarrassing.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>I probably shouldn\u2019t say this, but I did. And I spoke for longer than seven seconds so we can\u2019t delay or bleep this. I don\u2019t have them here. I didn\u2019t print them out \u2019cause I promised myself I would not read them on the air, so I didn\u2019t print \u2019em out, give myself a chance to. But it was worse than&#8230; remember Nina Burleigh, does that name ring a bell? Nina Burleigh, TIME Magazine, back in the Clinton years, I think in Clinton\u2019s second term, promised to give Clinton a Lewinsky just for keeping abortion legal. Remember that? Remember her? Well, I mean, Suzanne Malveaux\u2019s stuff was not sexual, but good grief, it was just over the top. It was like high school. It was like being invited into the big clique. It was like her first time there, she\u2019s in the same room with Obama, she couldn\u2019t believe how cool he was. How cool it was to be in the same room with Obama. And I thought, hasn\u2019t this woman covered the White House in her career? I couldn\u2019t remember.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, Obama told dog-eating jokes. We had a portion of one of his autobiographies last week where he described eating dog growing up. That just makes me nervous. Dogs, pets, it just makes me nervous. But apparently not Obama. He can freely talk about eating dog in his autobiography, makes a joke about it. It\u2019s strange. You tell me if you think this is funny. I may be a lone wolf on this. This may be uproariously funny.<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA: Sarah Palin is getting back into the game, guest hosting on the Today Show, which reminds me of an old saying. What\u2019s the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? A pit bull is delicious. (laughter) Little soy sauce.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: What\u2019s the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? A pit bull is delicious. So what does that mean you would do with a hockey mom? How could you compare flavors? But I don\u2019t know that that\u2019s what the audience is laughing at. I don\u2019t know. I just find the whole thing just a slight bit uncomfortable. I don\u2019t know. It could be just me. But it was highlighted, the dog-eating jokes were all over the place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Snerdley, do you still have your crush on Suzanne Malveaux?
