Lonegan takes a bite out of Rush Limbaugh

In an opinion piece for the Bergen Record, Steve Lonegan had some rather unkind things to say about Chris Christie and even threw a few verbal barbs at the "Big Kahuna" himself, Rush Limbaugh. According to the Bilious Blowhard from Bogota, "Rush Limbaugh is singing the praises of Governor Christie’s budget. National pundits talk of “spending cuts.” Some enthusiasts have gone as far as starting a “Christie for President” chant. So many words. But as the big government spin machine rolls on, what is really happening? Sweep away the bluster and the attitude, and behind it all is the largest property tax hike New Jersey has ever seen."

Later in the essay Lonegan goes on to say, "At a time when our nation is struggling to recover from a recession, this budget drives a dagger into our economic recovery. I wonder if Rush Limbaugh supports such policies?"

Aside from the usual assortment of rightwing whackjobs, I wonder if anyone cares.
