obviously that one anecdote and many others we know of disprove what rush limbaugh is saying.ut i think the extreme misuse of facts, which is not unusual for him, is also a sign of desperation because this is going to -- i think this has and will continue to tear apart the republican party and the conservative movement. there are some republicans for political reasons and for some legitimate policy reasons, value reasons, want to do something about it and see the common sense approach. the business community obviously wants to take care of this for their own interests but yet you still have many who, you know, want this to be an english first country, mainly a white country. they don't like the changing demographics. they don't want to deal with it. to them it's basically cultural war, and they will put up a strong resistance, and you saw it reflected in john boehner's statement. he's very unenthusiastic because i think he figures that his caucus is still majority opposed to this type of reform. >> and to that point, congressman, we know republicans have been getting guidance

and rush limbaugh contract. what happened to the free market?azing that he talked to you guys and amazing how honest he was. so tell me about what dick armey said about paying rush limbaugh and whether they got their moan's worth. >> media matters talked to dick armey last week. he has a bit of a vendetta with his former employer, even though he got a massive payoff. we were curious what are these expenditures that mother jones reported on? what's this glenn beck, radio fundraising. dick armey told media matters it's what he thought was a waste of money well over a million dollars for glenn beck last year, and approximately probably half a million dollars for limbaugh. that contract began later in the year. interestingly, freedom works signed up with limbaugh just about the time he was having his scandal problem with the senator fluk situation. he was losing advertisers. freedom works swooped in and started writing him checks. >> cenk: i didn't know that part. it almost shows you hey are you sure even though you're saying hateful things and it's

and now i don't have any idea what rush limbaugh thinks about this anymore. republicans versus republicans. and then, the father of one of the children killed in the newtown massacre testifies about the murder of his son. and he is heckled by gun worshippers. and then of course, the right wing bloggers defend the hecklers. and then, a preview of what the blood-drenched lobbyist, wayne lapierre, will tell a senate committee tomorrow. now, here's one that will make you feel alive. meet the five-passenger ford c-max hybrid. c-max says ha. c-max says wheeee. which is what you get, don't you see? cause c-max has lots more horsepower than prius v, a hybrid that c-max also bests in mpg. say hi to the all-new 47 combined mpg c-max hybrid. get coricidin hbp. the number one pharmacist recommended cold brand designed for people with high blood pressure. and the only one i use to relieve my cold symptoms without raising my blood pressure. coricidin hbp. . >>> so marco rubio called into rush limbaugh's radio program today, and i'm not sure who kissed whose ring, or if the

the rush limbaughs of the world. the more you start talking about latinos and basically make them agreeable with amnesty, then it doesn't matter the immigration reform you pass. the republican party still has to make sure they're welcoming the latino community by talking to them straight, talking to them honestly and more importantly, with respect. >> it's interesting -- >> i think that's very important. >> you have a conservative group of hispanic leadership network and came out with a list of dos and don'ts. don't use phrases like anchor baby or -- >> right. >> right. >> you know, they say here use the phrase earned legal status. don't use pathway to citizenship and some other dos or don'ts. don't use the word illegals and ill yens or as i brought up to you anchor baby. isn't it interesting you have to have a -- i guess -- i don't know. a language lesson. >> it is shocking. >> i mean, that's -- that sounds stunning because i believe they know exactly what they're doing and that you have to give a crash course to co

and now i don't have any idea what rush limbaugh thinks about this anymore. republicans versus republicans. and then, the father of one of the children killed in the newtown massacre testifies about the murder of his son. and he is heckled by gun worshippers. and then of course, the right wing bloggers defend the hecklers. and then, a preview of what the blood-drenched lobbyist, wayne lapierre, will tell a senate committee tomorrow. ford c-max hybrid. when you're carrying a lot of weight, c-max has a nice little trait, you see, c-max helps you load your freight, with its foot-activated lift gate. but that's not all you'll see, cause c-max also beats prius v, with better mpg. say hi to the all-new 47 combined mpg c-max hybrid. olaf gets great rewards for his small business! pizza!

rush limbaugh he compared pedophilia to gay marriage.e have to sound before even his fans hear it. >> i think what he wanted to do--you remember that sick feeling when you first heard of gay marriage. you know that sick feeling you felt when you heard about blacks and white getting married? he couldn't say that any more. this is the snake oil salesman. the rest of them, these publicity whores. >> we know he's a homophobe. >> this is the most shocking thing is the reason rush limbaugh found out about the pedophilia thing was by reading the guardian in england but rush limbaugh represents republicans who are dying on the vine. republican party and rush limbaugh will not to continue to exist if they go on-- >> normalize pedophilia. i think rush limbaugh exists for stupidity and ignorance. how much decades did he reached hatred. no one should give credence to a single word coming out of his overrated face. >> i like to know how you really feel. now that we know mitch mcconnell is getting ads against him online, is it certain that he'll get a

they did an amazing thing on rush limbaugh.e made rush limbaugh come over to accept possible immigration reform. that is no easy task but what is -- how did he do that? making the case for enforcement. so what exactly is that enforcement mechanism that house republicans and conservative republicans and rush limbaughs of the world get on board with that's a final deal can liberals stomach that? that's something to pay attention to. >> right. when rubio was on limbaugh's show today, the red line he drew basically saying, democrats are out there saying that this commission that would be set up, to consist of southwest governors, other elected officials to declare the border secure before you move to green card, before you move to citizenship, there's democrats saying that would purely be an advisory thing and move to citizenship in spite of what that panel recommends, rubio said the red line on limbaugh today, if that ends up being the approach, i walk away from this. conservatives and republicans walk away from this seems to me a

rush limbaugh had something to say about it. listen to rush. >> barack obama.'t for me and fox news, that he would haven't any opposition, if it weren't for me and fom news, the republicans would be totally content to agree with obama and democrats on everything. then everything would be fine. everybody would be ficketted and okay. >> so, bob, that pesky fox news and rush would get out of the way i'd have any way. >> bob: i disagree with everything you said there. i don't think obama is trying to trash the second amendment or the first amendment. to pick out rush limbaugh and fox news is doing fox news a favor. not a good idea to do it. i have no idea what he was thinking when he did it. one of those things that happens when you win and you take too much in your victory. >> eric: flippant statement? >> yeah. >> look at mary landrieu on the senate floor. listen to mary landrieu. >> i am not going to keep cutting the division cessionnary budget, which by the way is not out of krog, despite what you hear on fox news. >> now the president and senator calling on fox

this is rush limbaugh's first book, the way things ought to be. for more than two decades, this basically has served as a blueprint for conservative thought in this country. here is a sample of a few things that were in the book. what about feeling sorry for those who pay the taxes? those who are people that no one feels sorry for. they are asked to give and give until they have no more to give. and when they say enough, they are called selfish. of course, it's also filled with deliberately offensive material as well, like this quote. i love the women's movement, especially when i'm walking behind it. limbaugh was so influential, the republican congress named him an honorary member after the 1994 election. >> the people that listen to ten hours of talk radio a week or more voted republican by a three-two-one margin. those are the people that elected the new congress. that's why this is the limbaugh congress. >> as of today, i think we can finally put this book where it belongs in history. right there. the american people have put the brakes on the

limbaugh says imagine if it's bush 43 doing it on abortion and what would the reaction then be? it would be completely different. it's congressional power and blah blah blah. >> jon: this is one of the weeks we need more time for a topic like this. next on news watch, mr. obama's cabinet pick is getting interesting media attention. >> president obama out to rebuild his cabinet. his choices a bit controversial. has the press already passed on his picks or is there a battle ahead? answer is next on news watch. your doctor will say get smart about your weight. i tried weight loss plans... but their shakes aren't always made for people with diabetes. that's why there's glucerna hunger smart shakes. they have carb steady, with carbs that digest slowly to help minimize blood sugar spikes. and they have six grams of sugars. with fifteen grams of protein to help manage hunger... look who's getting smart about her weight.

and the very very ugly rush limbaugh's radio show friday limbaugh tried to advance the pro-gun agenda by tarnishing the civil rights movement limbaugh said quote if a lot of african-americans are going to search through their guns in the late or i do use them for self the friends you think they would have needed so no i don't know i'm just asking if rep john lewis who says he was being. side the head of john lowe is it out of god would have been been upside the head on the bridge. the beauty of the american civil rights movement was that it preached progress through . and by the way that approach ultimately worked by arguing that those who fought for equality could have done so better with guns limbaugh has completely discredited to the hard work and struggle that so many went through in order to change america actually he hasn't completely discredited it he's completely discredited himself in trying to discredit and that is believe. as soon as the second inaugural of barack obama was finished the newly reelected president walked back into the u.s. capitol and sat down behind an ornat

in an interview with the new republic magazine, blames fox news and rush limbaugh for the gridlock in washington d.c. quote, i don't think the issue is whether or not there are people of goodwill in either party that want to get something done. i think what we really have to do is change some of the incentive structures so that people feel liberated to pursue some common ground. one of the biggest factors is going to be how the media shapes the base. if the republican member of congress is not punished on fox news or by rush limbaugh for working with a democrat on a bill of common interests, then you'll see more of them doing it. in other words, forget about that little thing called freedom of speech, differing views and instead, wants any, all opposing voices to what, be silenced? that includes the opinions on this program and watch every single night. what the president fails to understand is that he is the reason why in large part washington's divided. it's his rhetoric responsible for polarizing the country and the fox news channel frankly has been the only media organization on t

rush limbaugh said that i was merely echoing what my nbc bosses wanted me to say because of the msnbcnection. it's perceived as a liberal network. the problem with that, it's 100% false and based on no knowledge that he had of any kind. the president of nbc sports is a gun owner and a hunter. i wrote what i wrote. they knew it was going to go on the air because they had to know what it was for time. they had not so much as a com comma's input to what i had to say nor did -- >> after we turned the cameras off he added this. >> gun culture attitudes towards guns quite apart from whether those guns are legally obtained and quite apart from people's legitimate second amendment rights. we have been able to change the culture in many areas without outlawing things. there are certain remarks that used to be common place, racist remarks, homeo phobic attitudes. mcdonald's offers salads, as well as big macs. we didn't outlaw big maces we changed some people's attitudes. cigarettes remain a legal product, but the culture has changed. >> some other comments from costas on super bowl sunday. >>>

no, the reason they stand out at fox and limbaugh stands out is what limbauh said about women in combataid they have a fighting force. that's why they stand out. the reason they stand out is because sarah palin thinks that the kodiak island is the largest island in north america, forget about hawaii. the listen they stand out is because she thinks north korea was an ally of the united states. and so the president has started to do what a lot of us have done and he understands that the voice of the republican party that he defeated was rush limbaugh and fox news and everybody knows it. >> well, margie, when you look at the fact that they've had such vile stuff to say about the president, but his stepping up is strategically going to create a climate for some moderate republicans to step up and try to not be intimidated by the rush limbaughs of the fox news. >> well, i think the president in some interviews, he's really said there are lots of republicans who want to come to the table, they want to work with me, they want to have common sense ideas and have bills passed. they want to reach

just monday rush limbaugh said it was up to him and fox news to kill this it bill. but yesterday in that clip that we just heard from senator rubio, rush limbaugh who rarely changes his mind softens his position. he did say the obama administration was running a no-huddle offense on america. first guns, then amnesty. but he went to say that if the plan would work the way senator rubio described it, that he would be for it. it would be important to do. it's a problem that needs to be solved. so the republicans rhetoric is meeting up with the electoral reality. but the problem is getting enough house members who feel like an incentive to do it back home. so many members are from deep red districts. the president has done something and that is to put it up as one big bill instead of chewable bites. that means the house might choke on it. >> so we e had the gang of eight. rubio is the shining star out of this. is he being boosted way up? >> absolutely. he's done more than talk. he's done something in washington, which is hard to do. and he went back on what he said less

>> rush limbaugh says there is no such thing. >> there is no such thing. you know what it is? it is whatever the controlling government authority says it is. it's whatever the government decides the assault weapons ban is, and in this case the state of new york decided what it is and decided to ban it. >> let's listen to what rush limbaugh said about it. >> none of these proposals would have stopped the shooter in newtown, connecticut, there, no such thing as an assault weapon, that is a catch-all term, there is no such thing, that is not an official category. if they could write their ticket, if they could, they would eliminate guns. and there are a whole host of reasons why, and safety is probably not in the top five. i say it in a non-threatening way. the wet dream plan for eliminating guns in this country has been a plan that the left has had for years. and it has been sitting in a drawer, somewhere waiting to be pulled out at the appropriate time just like health care was. >> karen finney joining us from washington. is this provision, which you can't have a magazine that

. >> greta: what a battle, rush limbaugh versus president obama. the two are really slugging it out again, but this time it's personal. >> the president is targeting me now and fox news, the only remaining media opposition, apparently. speaking to the new republic, president said that, quote, one of the biggest factor how the media shapes debate. if an american member of congress is not punished on fox news or rush limbaugh on a bill of common interest then you'll see more of them doing it. >> if fox news and i are the only thing keeping the republicans from caving to barack obama on every issue, i'm not paid enough. >> it almost seems to be on parity about a president complaining about the conservative press and going the other way and talking to the people saying the conservative press is doing it wrong. in an interview with the new republic, rather than be focused on the employment situation or the debt, the big problems that obama has are fox news and me. obama said to the new republic, he's getting a lot more done without fox news and rush lim

basically indicating, guys, fox news and rush limbaugh run the run the run party.you cut cliches from them every single day. is it true? >> that's the situation. we know president obama is rallying the troops. we don't want a replay of the glenn beck thing. they're worried about it, and you can see some truth in it. say what you're going to say but follow through. that's all i ask. >> cenk: the rest of the interview, we're willing to throw democrats under the bus. the democrats won't do it, but we will. >> this is so foreshadowing and it shows you nothing is going to get done. the whole comment about conservative media tells that you he's not going to be a fighter. you got to stop being weak. stop being afraid of rush limbaugh. >> cenk: on that comment he's saying look, these guys are stopping the republicans from making a deal. but at the same time i think he's getting played. he says in an interview oh, boehner can't do the deal because of the caucus. no they're playing you good cop-bad cop. >> that's what i'm saying. also the media is a cover up of what the real

those he disagrees with like fox news and limbaugh so are fox's remains in the tank because a white house conspiracy to sally's right wing media or have the american people finally woken up to the steady far right polarization of fox news and decided that they no longer want to be less informed than people who watch no use at all or a similar the same the study and they've been debunked it's absolutely not true that fox viewers less informed they may have gotten anybody believe more things that are wrong there they're more informed than normal but all label this is new this week numbers are down that's the point you see you talking about the holiday season people were busy with thanksgiving they were busy. does it chris was the key is not whether somebody is ratings were down but their share their portion of the audience the fact that the total audience is down to five zero zero zero is the same then then your audience goes down too but again i'm not sure necessarily. fox's share is still double that of c.n.n. is still greater than that of m s n b c n c n.b.c. and some of the other
