Just not right in the head. January 28, 2015 11:44 pm bowser

As a massive winter storm threatened the mid-Atlantic and New England states on Monday, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh took to the airwaves with a warning.

The real threat to the public, he contended, wasn’t from an impending icy blast; it was from big-government nanny state liberals like New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, who use predictions of impending disaster to expand their power.

“Part and parcel of liberalism is the nanny state and to assume that we can’t take care of ourselves,” he said. “The assumption that we don’t know what’s best for us. That we have to be told don’t drive when the roads are slick. That we have to be told, make sure you bundle up and put on extra layers if you’re going to go out when it’s cold. And make sure you don’t shovel your snow too rapidly; it could lead to a heart attack.”
