And it was a hoot!<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;theory&#8221; that Rush has been pummelling his Ditto Heads with all day: Joe Wilson has been a part of a double super secret background conspiracy with the DNC since day one, well <i>before<\/i> he was sent by the CIA to Niger.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right. According to Rush, the entire plan to send George W. Bush&#8217;s own father&#8217;s Man in Iraq &#8212; a decades-long expert in African and Middle-Eastern affairs to Niger &#8212; was all just a ploy by <i>Democrats<\/i> &#8220;to undermine the War in Iraq and the Bush Presidency,&#8221; as Rush repeatedly described it.<\/p>\n<p>We suppose then, that Bush 41&#8217;s letter sent to Wilson saying that he concurred with much of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.politicsoftruth.com\/editorials\/saddam.html\" target=\"_blank\">the article that Wilson wrote<\/a> prior to the war in the <i>San Jose Mercury News<\/i> was also part of that conspiracy.<\/p>\n<p>Why is Dubya&#8217;s own father trying to destroy Dubya&#8217;s own &#8220;Presidency&#8221;, dammit?!<\/p>\n<p>Rush&#8217;s final words at the end of the show (referring to the Press Conference scheduled by Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) to happen shortly): &#8220;Chuck Shumer is Joe Wilson&#8217;s &#8216;handler&#8217; in this agency plot to bring down the President.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Good lord, these Right Wing Tin-Foil Hat wearers never fail to entertain.<\/p>\n<p>Po&#8217; po&#8217; Rush he was even having trouble getting anything but callers who were <i>supportive<\/i> of Wilson today! Rush is in as much trouble today as his White House counterpart Scottie McClellan <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/archives\/00001591.htm\">has been in all week<\/a> in the WH press room.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re also honored that Rush was unglued enough to refer to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.BradBlog.com\">The BRAD BLOG<\/a> as a &#8220;left wing blog&#8221; at the top of the show when he said that &#8220;Wilson was even speaking to left wing bloggers last night.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He didn&#8217;t mention us by name though.
