Rush Limbaugh has lacatation envy




Discussing Rep. Nancy Pelosi's (D-CA) speech following her election as the country's first female speaker of the House, nationally syndicated radio host Rush Limbaugh noted on the January 5 broadcast of his show that Rep. Heath Shuler (D-NC) said that, in Linbaugh's words, "his 2-year-old daughter ... is inspired by Nancy Pelosi's ascension to the speakership." Limbaugh then commented, "His 2-year-old can't possibly know who Pelosi is other than as a cartoon figure on television. Maybe Pelosi breastfed him, I don't know, when the kid was pregnant. Who knows? She's capable of doing everything else." Limbaugh later added: "[L]ook at Ms. Pelosi. Why, she can multitask. She can breastfeed, she can clip her toenails, she can direct the House, all while the kids are sitting on her lap at the same time."

The above is noted by Media Matters in "Limbaugh on Pelosi: 'Why, she can multitask. She can breastfeed, she can clip her toenails, she can direct the House'" (that's an excerpt, there's more at the link including audio).

Our opinion? Give Rush Limbaugh a break. His breasts are so huge due to his enormous girth and yet, no matter how he might play with them, they produce no milk. He's probably got a bad case of lactation envy. As for the toenails remark, does Media Matters realize how long it's been since Rush Limbaugh saw his feet? For all he knows, they don't exist under his giant belly. And the belly could explain his jealousy over the fact that Nancy Pelosi has a lap while he has none.

It's hard to be a (hopefully) recovering drug addict. And having those big, saggy boobies and not being able to get them to lactate is obviously one of Rush Limbaugh's greatest frustrations. Feel for him. (But don't feel him up, he'd probably enjoy that.)
