Rush to Cohen: The new Jews are the Tea Party

Posted by The Right Scoop on January 20th, 2011 in Politics | 23 Comments

Rush took nearly a full segment to talk about Cohen’s comments yesterday regarding the comparison of Republicans to Nazis. For the most part it wasn’t the Nazi reference that Rush focused on, but the lies that Cohen was telling that led to that comparison. Rush sets him straight on it, pointing him first to an article written by one of his own, Evan Thomas, called “The Case for Killing Granny.” He then points out that the American people are not victims of propaganda, but rather they are rooted in truth as many of them have read the bill and they know exactly what’s in it. He makes sure to also point out to Rep. Cohen that the propaganda around this health care bill has come from the Left and the American people resisted it and still do to this day, even though it was passed into law against their will.

But when talking about the specifics of the Nazi reference Cohen made yesterday, Rush said this (right after 6 min mark):

Congressman, who’s been more demonized in America recently than the Tea Party and the Tea Party’s leaders? If you are going to make a comparison with Nazi Germany, isn’t it clear who the new Jews are? Sure as hell isn’t the Democrats. Who are the new Jews Congressman Cohen? It’s not the Democrats. It’s the Tea Party.

At the end I included Rush exposing Chuck Todd basically passing off Cohen’s comments as something to be expected from rhetorical bomb thrower, but not something to get upset about.

So much for civility. Good!

I disagree. I think her biggest hurdle is other women. I asked my wife why women cut down other women and she said, "Because that's what women do." Really sad. Then when they don't succeed, it's because of the glass ceiling. Go figure.

Amen! Same here. I also love Andrew Wilkow on XM Patriot Radio. He's on the same time as Rush. But I find a way to get my Rush fix later on the net. Wilkow takes opposing calls ALOT, so I like him for that. I also listen to Dennis Miller often but he gets off on Hollywood interviews etc. I wish he would do 100% political stuff. He is good.

Got to listen to Rush today- good stuff on his show, but I don't think you posted the highlight of today's show. After the colon cancer guy called, Rush then destroyed his position before going to break. Listening on the radio it kinda seemed that Rush didn't want to be rude or belittle the man, but afterwards Rush went on to explain the flawed logic. That!, was great-

That'd be nice to hear Scoop?

I wish that Rep. Cohen would change his last name. The only Cohens that I know personally are Jews and members of the Tea Party.

I hope he will make the correction tomorrow.

I mute the 'commercials' too. I love Rush but it's rare that I can stand one of his parodies.

America would be lost without Rush Limbaugh. The reagan of our time.

I might get chewed out here, but I'm not seeing that at all. If Palin really would wipe the floor with these guys why is she polling so low? Republicans in general are polling high so its not some left wing pollster conspiracy.

already working on that. It was a good piece.

Rush is Great!

Jewish?! On Michael Savage now you can hear Jeff Khuner. Slamming our Commie friends hard and Washington - "Fiddling while Rome burns". Awesome show.

Savage doesn't just let anyone do his show now.....

In November 2009, Kuhner became the host of "The Kühner Show", a talk radio show on 570 WTNT which broadcast in the Washington DC metro area. The libs. were so scared of his wisdom and hard hitting truth they shut them all down....
