But NPR, CNN, MSNBC and the networks are OK

The NY Post reports - - -

President Obama warned Republicans on Capitol Hill today that they need to quit listening to radio king Rush Limbaugh if they want to get along with Democrats and the new administration.

"You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.

One White House official confirmed the comment but said he was simply trying to make a larger point about bipartisan efforts. …

The rest of the Post’s story’s here.

Full disclosure: Nowhere in the story does it say President Obama told Republicans it was OK for them to listen to NPR, CNN, MSNBC and the networks.

But don’t you think it’s safe to say The One’s OK with GOPers listening to any of them?

If he’s not, I’ll issue a retraction provided that’s OK with our historic first president ever to tell members of the opposite party they shouldn’t listen to Rush Limbaugh if they want to “get things done.”
