The fact that you think it doesn't matter because you still don't like what he said really isn't relevant. The point was that it was misleading quote taken out context with the intent of giving the statement a meaning it was not intended to have.
So, how many drugs is Rush Limbaugh actually on?

So it doesn't matter that no one said it as long as he can plausibly claim they did.

well since it is taken out of context it is hard to say where Rush was going with it

It is not just "possible" he's talking about islands affected by global warming; he says it outright
