Limbaugh: Robin Hood ‘Was a Tea Party Activist’

By    |   Wednesday, 08 August 2012 03:19 PM EDT

Talk radio king Rush Limbaugh says President Barack Obama doesn’t understand the story of Robin Hood - a tea party activist if ever there was one.

On Monday, Obama called Romney’s tax plan “Romney Hood,” saying it takes from the poor and gives to the rich.

That just shows Obama’s ignorance, according to Limbaugh. “Everybody misunderstands the Robin Hood story,” he said on his show Tuesday. “Everybody thinks that Robin Hood was out there stealing money from the rich and taking it back and giving it to the citizens of Sherwood Forest.”

What was he really doing? “Robin Hood was stealing from the government,” Limbaugh said. “Robin Hood was a tea party activist. Robin Hood was anti-taxes.”
