Nice try. It is possible that your interpretation is correct, but it is far from "pretty clear". For one thing, your interpretation is contrary to the literal meaning of Limbaugh's statement. Taken in context and considering Limbaugh's subsequent statement about John Murtha, your interpretation seems doubtful to me.

Even if he did mean something else, why didn't Reid et al condemn ABC news for running the same story about McBeth 2 days earlier? Answer: because they HATE Rush.
Or maybe because the McBeth story is newsworthy, even if it's not what Limbaugh was talking about shen he said "phony soldiers."
