MTV: When Rush Says It, It’s ‘Graphic Detail’

by Alexander Marlow

MTV ran this headline today: ‘Rush Limbaugh Responds To Jay-Z’s ‘Off That’ In Graphic Detail’

A network’s that’s spent two decades lining its pockets selling vulgar sex to young people calling anything “graphic” is patently absurd. Here’s what Rush said on his show regarding rapper Jay-Z:

I’m now in a rap tune by the famous rapper Jay-Z. I would remind the rapper Jay-Z: Mr. Z, it is President Obama who wants to mandate circumcision.  We had that story yesterday; and that means if we need to save our penises from anybody, it’s Obama.  I did not know I was on anybody’s balls, either.

“Penises” and “balls” qualifies as “graphic detail”? For MTV? Rush is of course referencing the possibility the Obama administration will mandate circumcision for all baby boys.  But let us not forget Mr. Limbaugh’s quote is in response to a song where he’s asked to remove himself from The Jigga Man’s scrotum and testicles:

Jay-Z: Please tell Bill O’Reilly to fall back/ Tell Rush Limbaugh to get off my balls…

As a bonus flashback, check out this post from Andrew Breitbart on Jay-Z’s song “My President Is Black,” which Jay-Z wrote with Young Jeezy for Obama’s inauguration:

Neva thought I’d Say this shit baby I’m good
You can keep ya Puss,
I don’t want no More BUSH
No More War, No More Iraq
No More White LIES, My President is BLACK

For some real “graphic detail” fun, here are the NSFW (unless you work for MTV) lyrics to Jay-Z’s single “Fuck All Night” … posted at MTV without so much as an “explicit lyric” warning.
