One has a feeling this could become a regular headline. Talking Points Memo reports that today's apology from RNC Chairman Michael Steele was directed to Rush Limbaugh:
In an interview with the Politico, Steele said: "My intent was not to go after Rush - I have enormous respect for Rush Limbaugh. I was maybe a little bit inarticulate...There was no attempt on my part to diminish his voice or his leadership."I think my favorite part of the public spat was when Steele called himself the "de facto" leader of the Republican party.This comes after Limbaugh tore into Steele for declaring on CNN that Rush isn't a leader of the Republican Party, but is an "entertainer" whose rhetoric is "incendiary" and "ugly."
"I went back at that tape and I realized words that I said weren't what I was thinking," said Steele. "It was one of those things where I thinking I was saying one thing, and it came out differently."
