Rush plays "Here Comes Barrack-O-Claus" song

I was depressed this morning when I turn on my radio to listen to Ed Schultz while walking my dogs like I do every morning and instead it is now the Fox Sports station!! I almost screamed. THe station is owned by Bain Capital's Clear Channel so its quite a slap in the face.

So I dial it to Rush and he is going on and on about the election claiming it was the 47% who voted for "free stuff", then he played a song all the way through. "Here Comes Barrack-O-Claus, Here Comes Barrack-O-Claus" sung by a black sounding chorus.
I went to Media Matters to see if they caught it and it looks like they arent doing minute by minute monitoring of Rush anymore. Maybe cuz its Vets Day? So maybe this will be the only mention in the media.

But Ru$h is nowhere near that line, he's just over-the-top stupid.
