WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s chief of staff says talk-show personality Rush Limbaugh is a top figure in the Republican Party. Rahm Emanuel said Sunday that Limbaugh is the “intellectual force” of the GOP and that Republicans now have to live with that choice.
Limbaugh gave a major speech at the Conservative Political Action Committee meeting over the weekend in Washington. Limbaugh says it’s fine for Republicans to criticize Obama’s plans and that Republicans must return to their core beliefs. Limbaugh has been a vocal critic of Obama’s, saying he hopes the new president’s plans fail. Emanuel spoke on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
