Three different people emailed me a link to this Politico column all saying the same thing: “I didn’t know John Feehery was such a d**k.”
The guy pretends to speak for the entire Republican Party. He probably actually thinks he does because a look at his resume reveals the following:
He worked for Bob Michel.
He managed communications for Speaker Hastert.
And, direct from his biography:
He has been called “indefatigable” by Norm Ornstein and “highly-regarded” by the Washington Post’s Al Kamen, and he was repeatedly named to Roll Call’s Fab Fifty List for when he served in Congress.
That all, right there, says everything about why we should not take anything this guy says seriously.
Bob Michel Republicans like to be yes men to Democrats until people like Limbaugh force them out of their habits.
Someone like this taking on Rush Limbaugh means a couple of things: (1) this guy is trying to generate hits to his website in a troubled economy, which is why I’m not linking there and (2) Rush is right.

Working for Bob Michel

Rush is Right!
Brian Darling Monday, February 9th at 12:32PM EST (link)Rush as 20 million listeners which is probably 19,950 more people than read John F.’s blog. John really should think twice before violating the 11th Commandment of politics in attacking another Republican. From my perspective - keep up the good work Rush and don’t listen to those who are attacking you like Olbermann, Feehery and Moveon.org.

Hastert's PR guy giving advice?
blh1976 Monday, February 9th at 12:50PM EST (link)We’re suppose to take advice from the guy who managed the communications department from Denny Hastert? Really?
What’s next? Obama giving us lessons in fiscal restraint, Pelosi handing out pointers on great Botox treatments, or Barney Frank lending us advice on subprimes?
Come on. This guy’s a hack, who’s looking for some Obama love. Good riddance.
oxymoron ...
