Rush Limbaugh rewards Obama ‘tea party heckler’ with new Apple iPad, 13-inch MacBook Air

“A self-proclaimed tea party activist confronted President Obama at a town hall meeting Monday, and the media immediately scrambled to find out who he is,” Jeff Poor reports for The Daily Caller.

“But Ryan Rhodes, who lambasted Obama in Decorah, Iowa over allegations that Vice President Joe Biden has called activists ‘terrorists,’ isn’t hiding from the limelight,” Poor reports. “On Tuesday, Rhodes appeared on Rush Limbaugh’s radio program.”

Poor reports, “Rhodes explained some the details of the confrontation and what inspired him to act as he did, and Limbaugh asked Rhodes about what sort of personal computer he used. When he told Limbaugh he had an ‘old’ Acer computer, the talk radio host offered him an iPad and a MacBook, even after Rhodes revealed that he already had an iPad. ‘I’m going to send you another one,’ Limbaugh said. ‘I’m going to send you one of only 25 EIB–Rush Limbaugh signature iPads, and I’m also going to send you a 13-inch MacBook Air.'”

MacDailyNews Take: From a POS Acer to a new MacBook Air and an extra iPad, too. Quite the upgrade! And broadcast on over 650 radio stations across the U.S., too! More free advertising for Apple.
