New Audio of Rush Limbaugh Viciously Smearing a Veteran

Posted by Stephanie Taylor on September 28, 2007 at 03:59 PM

This morning we told you about Rush Limbaugh's comments calling soldiers who oppose the war in Iraq "phony soldiers." Now we've learned this isn't the first time he's smeared the troops.

Check out this clip from his radio show in 2005, in which he viciously attacked Paul Hackett, who served in the 1st Marine Division in Ramadi and Fallujah, and returned home to run for Congress in a special election against Republican Jean Schmidt.

Limbaugh calls Hackett a "staff puke," and claims that he served in Iraq only to "pad his resume."
