Rush Limbaugh needs to re-read the Constitution. Addressing the Conservative Political Action Conference this weekend, Limbaugh, a right-wing radio host who says he wants President Obama’s economic efforts to fail, accused the commander in chief of "bastardizing" the Constitution: "Aside from the bastardization of the Constitution that the Obama plans are, that TARP is, it’s not constitutional." The Huffington Post’s always-astute Sam Stein points out, however, that Limbaugh then went on to misquote the very document he was espousing:

We love and revere our founding documents, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. [Applause] We believe that the preamble to the Constitution contains an inarguable truth that we are all endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life [applause] liberty, freedom [applause] and the pursuit of happiness. [Applause] Those of you watching at home may wonder why this is being applauded. We conservatives think all three are under assault.

Limbaugh may have thought he was quoting the Constitution, but he was actually — and erroneously — referring to the Declaration of Independence, which insists Americans have the right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
