WASHINGTON (AP) - A Democratic official rebuked conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh on Friday for suggesting a health care proposal will be named in memory of Sen. Edward Kennedy, who is battling brain cancer. On his radio show, Limbaugh said President Barack Obama's proposed health care revisions will be championed by "the liberal lion Teddy Kennedy."

"Before it's all over, it'll be called the Ted Kennedy Memorial Health Care bill," Limbaugh said.

Brian Wolff, executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, called the remark outrageous and reprehensible.

    • I think the problem could be that Rush, though negligible, makes wild and stupid accusations. If the democrats were to ignore him then more people would assume that the Rush is making truthful statements. However if they try to rebuke or counter attack, it looks like the democrats are wasting time or diverting their attention from more serious issues. Basically it's a kind of loose loose situation.

    • you would think that with all the problems in the country today the democrats would have something else to talk about other than Rush. I thought he was a non issue to the democrats.

      diversion tactics anyone?
