Limbaugh: (audio) Boehner must say 'no' to Obama on Joint Session date

President Barack Obama sent a letter to both Speaker of the House John Boehner, Ohio Republican, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat, requesting a Joint Session of Congress on September 7. However, many are wondering why the President is requesting this date, as it conflicts with the upcoming GOP presidential debate at the Reagan library in Simi Valley, California.

"I respectfully request the opportunity to address a joint session of Congress on Sept. 7, 2011 at 8 p.m.," wrote the president in his letter to both lawmakers.

Talk radio host Rush Limbaugh put in his two cent on the matter and suggested that Speaker John Boehner deny President Obama that particular date for a Joint Session of Congress:

1. (sigh)
I sometimes feel like I'm listening to the story of a little child who started school, but is shy, feels isolated and alone, and is scared.

3. I've heard Boner in a phone interview with PimpleButt.



Boner was like a teeny bopper in the presence of a rock star.
I was embarrassed just to hear the brief portion of it that I heard.

4. Do you realize what this says about the pecking order?
Limbaugh tells Boner to object to the date of the speech.

Boner tells Obama to change the date of the speech.

Obama changes the date.

Who needs Boner? Limbaugh can just give the orders directly to Obama.

Actually, who needs Obama? Limbaugh seems to be in charge anyway.
