When President Obama announced his plan a week and a half ago to send a hundred United States troops to central Africa to aid in the search for Lord’s Resistance Army rebels, the American public was, predictably, a little confused, and Rush Limbaugh was, predictably, a little off his rocker.

Limbaugh, meanwhile, told his listeners that the President was on a mission to kill African Christians. He said, “Lord’s Resistance Army are Christians. They are fighting the Muslims in Sudan. And Obama has sent troops, United States troops, to remove them from the battlefield, which means kill them. So that’s a new war, a hundred troops to wipe out Christians in Sudan, Uganda and—[interruption]—no, I’m not kidding.”
