It appears that Rush Limbaugh has truly gone off the deep end (I know some people might argue that he went off the deep end a long time ago, but hear me out). Rush is now accusing President Obama of trying to get the Republican National Convention canceled. The method that he is accusing President Obama of using to get the convention canceled isn't some sort of legal tactic or use of intimidation, but a hurricane.
Yep, that's right, Rush Limbaugh is accusing President Obama of sending Hurricane Issac towards the Republican Nation Convention in Tampa Bay, Florida.
Well, not exactly sending it, but he is accusing the National Hurricane Center of faking Hurricane Issac's projected path so\ to make it look like it's going towards Tampa Bay, and that President Obama will send in FEMA ahead of time to basically make the convention look like a bunch of tents and RVs...

While Rush is certainly a hardcore conservative, and has promoted conspiracy theories in the past, most of the conspiracy theories tended to be nothing more then political propaganda, which is not uncommon when it comes to politics, but now it seems that the conspiracy theories that he is promoting is moving away from political propaganda, to nutcase conspiracy theories.
Case in point, when the movie The Dark Knight Rises came out, Rush accused the movie's creators of basically creating the movie as anti Romney propaganda because the main villain was called Bane, and Mitt Romney use to be an executive for Bain Capital...
And that's not all...
Rush has accused President Obama of having governing style similar to that of Hitler's, and that he created the recession to get back at the United States for racism...
Rush has also accused environmentalists of causing the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
And these are only a few examples of some of the insane and completely wrong statements (sometimes out right lies) that Rush has made over the years, which has only increased since President Obama took office.
Over the years Rush Limbaugh has moved away from right wing political commentator, to right wing nut job and conspiracy theorist, much like how Alex Jones is.
It shocks me that anyone takes Rush seriously anymore...
