The Dark Knight Rises Is Anti-Romney Conspiracy, Says Rush Limbaugh

If you pay enough attention to both movies and politics, you might have noticed by now that the name of the asset management firm once run by Mitt Romney rhymes with the name of the villain in The Dark Knight Rises. It's not the same name, of course-- Romney's former company is called Bain, Tom Hardy's Batman character is called Bane-- but they rhyme perfectly, so much that people have been making some silly jokes on the Internet and some even sillier Photoshop.

But what can we rely on in this world if not Rush Limbaugh ruining the joke by taking it way too seriously? On his show today (via Media Matters) Limbaugh attempted to inform his viewers of the left-wing conspiracy that is The Dark Knight Rises, and how this "vicious, fire-breathing, four-eyed, whatever-it-is villain" is an attempt to bring down Mitt Romney. Yup. Take a listen for yourself below.
