Obama to Limbaugh: Go Play with Yourself

I think both parties are missing the boat here. Read the story below:
Obama to Limbaugh:go play with yourself - NYPOST.com

This could be the biggest sports-political event ever. Imagine the ratings for a mic-ed up round with Rush Limbaugh and the President. It could be very funny and very informative at the same time.
