"If he cared about it, Chris if he cared about it we've got soldiers and their families worrying about what we are going to do," he told the audience. According to an Associated Press report, Limbaugh said Obama's swift rise to the White House after "a five-minute career" makes him a "man-child president."

"I think he's got an out-of-this-world ego. He's very narcissistic. And he's able to focus all attention on him all the time. That description is simply a way to cut through the noise and say he's immature, inexperienced, in over his head," Rush said. Video here. Does this help Republicans, or Obama?
