Dems launch anti-Limbaugh petition

By GottaLaff

Here's the back story. Here's the sequel:

In a bid to capitalize on Rush Limbaugh's recent comment that he hopes President Obama "fails," national Democrats launched a petition drive Wednesday targeting the conservative radio host.

"Jobs, health care, our place in the world — the stakes for our nation are high and every American needs President Obama to succeed," says the petition, sponsored by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. "Stand strong against Rush Limbaugh's Attacks — sign our petition, telling Rush what you think of his attacks on President Obama."

Oxy LimpDong is such a good listener, so compassionate and fair-minded. I'm sure he'll read the petition and set out to change his ways immediately. He's just that kind of guy.

Still, the DCCC petition not only provides an outlet for Democratic anger at Limbaugh, but also serves as a vehicle to gain names and e-mail addresses, presumably for later use in fundraising and organizing efforts.

Ahhh, there you go, the true motive. That's the DCCC we all know and mock. Oh, but I kid.
