Gibbs v Limbaugh v Obama (Etc)

If this past month is an example of what Obama’s success looks like, I’m not sure how much more this country can stand.

Personally I am delighted that oxy boy is further fracturing a party already near total disarray. More power to the pimple butt.

Have we set a record for Elephants with the worst memories in history? Republickins have attempted to jam trickle down economics down our throats since Reagan, It’s failed everytime. So what does the memoryless elephant do? He blames the other guy, and hopes for failure..

Republicans are going into Extinction!

Nobody WANTED Bush to fail, he just did at every opportunity.

‘I asked this in another thread.
Did Bush or any of his spokesmen ever comment on Keith Olbermann and his special comments?
It seems weird to me the President of the United States cares so much about what a radio talk show host has to say.
Wait ’til Obama gets someone like Cindy Sheehan camped in his front yard, or he starts to see lewd t-shirts criticizing him.
Buck up, Obama. You are the most powerful man on the planet. You are going to be criticized. Handle it with class.

=====================
He will succeed in making Rush the democratic figurehead of the GOP.
Never underestimate the stupidity of liberals.

I’m ready for Gibbs to retire. He’s really not qualified – Obama needs a proficient spokesperson, Gibbs seems way to easily befuddled and frustrated.

JR, I’d be careful making a statement that NOBODY wanted Bush to fail. Certainly hyperbole, but it makes you look silly. In fact, the Huffington post features an article claiming otherwise just this morning…proven wrong already.

JR, also, if Bush failed at every opportunity anyway, why is Obama retreading a majority of Bush’s policies?

Nothing warms my heart more than hearing the Repub’s yell and rant and scream and complain and cry and moan and whine and writhe in their collective agony. It tells me Obama has is right. The louder they are, the harder they fell. Give it up! or not. I don’t care. We tried it your way for the better part of 30 years. The proof is in the mess we are in. After the Dem’s have fixed your mess over the next 30 years, THEN come talk to me. Til then… scream a little louder, wouldja? tee hee.

It’s funny to come to these corporate news websites and see all the Republicans losing their minds. I have to say that as a liberal, it’s incredibly refreshing to see the insects scurrying around in the light of day. Boy do they hate Obama for trying to fix the mess their boy Jr got us into. Republicans used to get so upset when liberals wouldn’t support Bush in the name of patriotism just because he lied us into a war. Now the shoe is on the other foot and Republicans don’t have a patriotic bone in their bodies even though it’s Bush’s mess Democrats are trying to keep from tanking the world economy. As usual, Democrats like Bill Clinton and Barack Obama have to come in and clean up the beds Republicans peed in and the messes they made on the kitchen floor. It’s like taking care of children. The children don’t get it. They don’t appreciate it. All they do is cry. These Republicans aren’t the types of Americans the rest of us take pride in. While they sit around on their hands and cry, the rest of us are the ones who have to actually do the work of cleaning up their mess. Being a Democrat is a thankless job, but at least we have the peace of mind to know that we’re dealing with people who have the minds of children, and they can’t really help themselves. There’s a sort of reassurance to be found as a Democrat knowing that you’re the only adults in the room at this point, after Conservatism utterly failed America. Oh, and I love Gibbs. I love how he’s always got that smile on his face. He knows what I’m talking about. He knows the other side is a joke.

What I see is that people are cheering on their side without regard to the facts. Eight years of self-serving interests by the GOP and BushCo. brought us to the lowest point many of us can remember economically. Now, they want to watch the country fall apart and scream at the top of their lungs, “Obama and the Liberals ruined the country!!” But the reality is that Bush allowed Free Market Anarchy, which rewarded corporations when they outsourced to India, bought ridiculously cheap goods from China, or anything else that took Dollars and Jobs away from America. The “smart” corporations did a musical chairs number with overseas accounts to avoid taxable income in the US. Shameful. Unpatriotic. Limbaughs’ brand of Conservatives love Almighty Profit more than God or Country. AMERICA NEEDS AMERICANS TO BUY AMERICAN. Yes, We CAN!!!!!!

This is beautiful.
A fight between Rush and Steele for the soul of the GOP with Rush winning thus far.
2010 is gonna be a breeze.

“Democrats elected a cult of personality instead of a qualified leader and now were all gonna pay for it.”
Said without a hint of self awareness as the follow Rush off a cliff.

I think Rush is just a straight shooter. If anything is the cause of this mess it was the constant demeaning of George Bush, an intentional program to bring him down. It was the Democrats who were hoping and praying for him to fail. Not once
or twice but at every step.
They were even OK with bringing the economy to the edge. They have achieved their goal and they will have to live with the results, but alas, we will too.

“He will succeed in making Rush the democratic figurehead of the GOP.
Never underestimate the stupidity of liberals.”
So, was it the “liberals” who named Limbaugh an honorary member of the House Republican Caucus?
Was it the “liberals” who invited him to speak at CPAC and give a rousing, inflammatory speech before all the conservative leaders?
Was it a “liberal” congressman who stated that Rush and Hannity are the conscience of the conservative movement? nope try a Republican from Georgia..
“Underestimating the stupidity of liberals”..?..? ROFLMAO!!!!!

I do not always agree with Mr. Limbaugh but I do on this. If Obama succeeds my children and grandchildren will have the America of the last 200+ years virtually destroyed. Yes, I would gladly face depression and worse before I would see our country stolen.
We are being subjected to a blitzkreig. By Obama and the liberals. They hate the real America and are striving to transform our country into a “workers paradise” with themselves as the new absolute leaders.

I think Gibbs is a great guy. I watched him tear up Sean Insanity Hannity like confetti and loved it. Rush is just a stupid blowhard and a smarmy coward. He is not going to risk confronting Gibbs because the only thing Rush cares for his skin! Obama wants to transform America and all success to him. In fact he should change it so much that the GOP is reduced to a gooey mess and simply washed away forever.
And “Obamacrat for Palin” when is Sarah filing that 1040X for fudging her personal expenses?

Rush Limbaugh has been shown to be drug user and the way he talks he still may be using them, that is for someone to investigate.
He has become the spokesman for the republican party, that I am sure of for most of the republicans are dancing to his tune.

Jake,
You can try soooo hard to hide the fact that your man Obama doesn’t have a clue how to fix this financial crisis, you can try to switch subjects or keep on making excuses for Obama.

Limbaugh is no strawman, and I’m glad they are doing this. Many republicans are *quite* happy to have the opiod addict be the face of their party, just so long as they personally don’t have to acknowledge the fact. This will force them to either make the guy irrelevant, or align themselves unambiguously with the wach-job side of the party.

Those of you criticizing Republicans, let’s get one thing straight here. There is a difference, a STARK difference between conservatives and most Republicans. Rush Limbaugh speaks for CONSERVATIVES. He is not, nor have ever been, a spokesperson for the RNC, he doesn’t hold any position in the RNC, and to say that Republicans listen to Limbaugh is ludicrous. In fact, if they WOULD HAVE listened to Rush all this time, they wouldn’t be in the situation they’re in. We conservatives don’t march in lockstep with the RNC unlike you liberal snots who have to have the DNC hold your hands and divide you into groups to represent that party. So I appreciate you criticizing Republicans, because hey, we conservatives for the most part, don’t like the GOP either. But don’t automatically assume that by bashing Republicans it’s hurting conservatives too.

Rush Limbaugh is an idiot. Any one in their right mind, even if they are multi-millionaires hoping the president’s economy policy fails cannot be in a stable mind.
I understand he was once using drugs and somehow the district attorney nothing about it for he ia a rich man. I he had been a poor man he would now be in prison serving his time like all the rest of poor drug users.
Limbaugh has also become the spokesman for the republican party, if you do not believe it just watch what he says and the republicans do.

I am 60 years old. The fear I have now exceeds the Carter administration. At no other time have I been more fearful. President Bush let conservatives down in an almost unforgivable way by handing Obama and the extreme liberals our country on a silver platter. As of January 1 2009, Bush was the worst president in my time. This congress and president is bringing us to our knees.

Notice the hypocrisy (hippocrazy… crazy hippo)… Rush the crazy hippo is simple enough to think that people can’t see his outrageous hypocrisy.. and he’s right on one level… 26% of the population can’t.

It looks like all you Liberals are ready to sign up for Obama’s Civilian National Security Force!!
What a joke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a waste!!!!!!!!!!!!
We’ll see who has the last laugh, and i’ll tell you Obama dosen’t care who is laughing in the end, He has an agenda that dosen’t include you, he just needed your votes to get in power.

Knee-jerk reactionary dems have taken the “I want BO to fail” as “I want the country to fail”. Quite different. I love the USA and wnat it to succeed. But I, like limbaugh, do not believe that BOs actions and proposals will lead to the USAa success. Therefore I wanted the porkulus to fail, i want his budget proposal to fail, i want wealth-shifting, class-warfare creating tax policies to fail, and i’ll want his run toward universal health care to fail. What is so hard to understand about that?

Why did Rush NOT complain for the 8 years that BUSH & Republican House and Senate let the bankers do whatever the hell they wanted. If he was not smart enough to point out then, the problems that are now occurring from these banking policies, what makes anyone think he might be right now ? BUSH/REAGAN policies mostly made the Rich MUCH richer – including Rush. I will listen to him if he servers time for the Oxy drug abuse for a few years, and pays his dues to society first.

Limbaugh and the neocons need to face it- more people are going to get a slice of the pie. The old, fat, ugly dinosaurs might actually have to pay in and not be quite as greedy and rich as previous. Conservatives hate seeing people succeed, especially people of different “class” or race. Fox needs to stop spewing this propaganda and just give up. Also, Rupert Murdoch, we know you were behind the cartoon. Give it a rest and give the people and the nation a chance to prosper again.

I love the USA and wnat it to succeed. But I, like limbaugh, do not believe that BOs actions and proposals will lead to the USAa success.
Maybe so. But you folks lost the election. So now you get to have popsickles and go outside and play with your friends in the back yard. We’ll call you when dinner is ready.
See how it works?? Kewl huh???!!!

Government RESTRICTING individual liberties should FAIL. Individual rights and liberties should WIN.
To Lewis, this is your comment. DO you REALLY want to talk about restricting liberties? How about Bush’s wire tapping laws? I don’t hear anyone on the Conservative side crying about “Big Brother is Watching” when he did this yet Obama is the Marxist? Puleez.

RUSH GETS IT!!! YOU CANNOT TAX AND SPEND YOUR WHY TO PROSPERITY. WHETHER YOU LIKE HIM OR NOT IS THE PROBLEM. CURRENTLY 40% OF AMERICANS PAY NO TAXES, UNDER PRESIDENT OBAMA’S PLAN THAT NUMBER GOES TO 50%. THE TOP 20% OF TAXPAYERS PAY 80% OF ALL TAXES COLLECTED, UNDER THE PRESIDENT”S PLAN THE NUMBER GOES TO 90%. AT WHAT POINT DO YOU SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. IF PRESIDENT OBAMA CONFISCATED ALL THE MONEY FROM THE TOP 20% HE STILL COULD NOT FUND ALL OF HIS BUDGET. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THIS IS TO STOP GIVING AWAY OUR TAX DOLLARS AND REWARDING BAD BUSINESS DECISIONS. WE ALSO NEED TO REEL IN RUN AWAY GOVERNMENT SPENDING AND WASTEFUL PROGRAMS. IF YOU WORK HARD, DO THE RIGHT THINGS LIKE PAYING YOUR BILLS, LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS, SAVE FOR RETIREMENT, AND PAY YOUR “FAIR” SHARE OF TAXES, YOUR REWARD IS TO BE SADDLED WITH MORE DEBT AND HIGHER TAXES BY THE SAME POLITICIANS THAT GOT US THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. NAME ONE COUNTRY THAT HAS TAXED AND SPENT ITS WAY TO PROSPERITY. WHAT RUSH IS WARNING US AGAINST IS MORE BIG GOVERNMENT AND CREEPING SOCIALISM.

When Republicans say “socialism,” they mean a well regulated capitalism that actually spurs competition.
~~~~~~~
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

The democrats didn’t have to want Bush’s policy to fail, the policy failed on its own. Where were the republican representation when things were getting bad economically? The GOP had 12 years control of the House and Senate and 8 years of control of the Presidency with years of overlap and they did NOTHING!!! The county wanted change and voted for it. It is too bad we are still seeing repubicans promoting their failed policies. If republicans couldn’t get it right for all of those years, how can you expect them to be right now?

Verne,
Republican capitalism=Corporate fascism and huge corporate monopolies that kill competition.
Democratic capitalism (Republicans call it socialism)=A well regulated capitalism that discourages corporate monopolies and spurs competition.

Never underestimate the ability of a liberal to be totally confused, and the tendency to spout fairy tales in substitution for historical facts.
Rush’s comments regarding his desire for Obama to fail, when taken in context, and all of the sentences are included, are proper for any patriot. Who in their right mind would want America to sink into Socialistic, Communism? Apparently the current administration and it’s liberal following.
The bright side of this discussion is, the liberals continue to display their total contempt for the Constitution, and all that it stands for. Oh, I forgot; The Constitution “Is a living document”. It’s subject to the whims of any liberal, activist court’s interpretations.
This country has a number, unseen heretofore, of people who have absolutely no comprehension of the English language, and it’s utility. We are surrounded by individuals who understand absolutely nothing of what they know. God help us. The liberal, socialist Democrats won’t.

Rush is just a talkshow jerk with a lot of personal problems.
Obviously not intelligent enough to even realize that he is driven the GOP to be a regional Party. How sad.
His arguments are very childish and immature. Just sound bites after sound bites.
But America is far more literate than Rush. So everyone has figured out what a jerk he is, except the hardcore GOP, living on the GOP Island.

JDI…”DO you REALLY want to talk about restricting liberties? How about Bush’s wire tapping laws? I don’t hear anyone on the Conservative side crying about ‘Big Brother is Watching’ when he did this yet Obama is the Marxist? Puleez.”
I can’t speak for the author of the post, but I was against the first bailout nd TARP, and I was against warrantless wiretapping. Obama, on the other hand, said he was against it and would never vote for a bill that included retroactive immunity (and then he voted for it). As much as I disagree with Bush, it makes me nostalgic for him.

HOW COME ALL YOU PEOPLE HAVE AN OPINION NOW !! I HOPE IT WAS BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN ILL THE LAST 8 YEARS AND COULD NOT SPEAK UP-BECAUSE IF YOU HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE LAST 8 YEARS THEN YOU CANNOT HAVE AN OPINION NOW. JUST SHUT UP AND DO EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE TOLD. WE ARE IN A JAM WHERE ALL OF YOUR POLICIES WERE COUNTER USA–WHICH IS A COUNTRY FOR THE PEOPLE-NOT FOR THE WEALTHTY-BECAUSE YOU THINK THEY WILL GENERATE JOBS, ETC-THEY FOR THE MOST OF THE 100 OR SO I KNOW GENERATE 10 TIMES MORE TRASH AND WILL DIE TO PROTECT THEIR TOYS. MOST OF THEIR CHILDREN ARE SPOLIED LAZY, AND NOT WELCOME AT MY HOUSE–WOULD RATHER HAVE A POOR UN TRAVELED KID WITH A BIG HEART-THAT NEEDS MY HELP THAN A KID THAT KNOWS IT ALL AND WILL END UP IN FINANCIAL RUIN FOR STEALING MY MONEY. DONOT TRUST ANYBODY WITH WEALTH- I TRUST PRISONERS, DRUG USERES AND THE UNEMPLOYEED MUCH MORE. ITS A SHAM WHAT THE WEALTH HAS TURNED PEOPLE INTO AND THERE IS NO END ANLESS WE STOP IT

“But don’t automatically assume that by bashing Republicans it’s hurting conservatives too.”
Actually, it’s the right wing conservatives who are destroying the Republican party. There is no room in the Republican party for moderates anymore.
Comedian, Robin Williams summed it up nicely when he said a moderate Republican is like a gun rack on a Volvo. Not something you see very much.
A Shame.

When the Liberal Democrats become less concerened about the field mouse, the spotted owl, old growth forrests, the whales, rainforests, acid rain, global warming and get there head in the real world where somtimes you have an obligation help other countries remove murderous crushing regimes. Where it might be a nice idea to maybe not consider aborting your children as casual as changing socks. Out of one side of your mouth I hear “think of the children!” Try it sometime.
When you become less fixated about the freedom of taking pictures of coffins rather then humbled by the sacrifices of those lying in them, perhaps we would have more to agree about.

Everybody knows Hair Romney is the real voice of the GOP and always was. Snicker. A mormon. A mormon who believes in public healthcare. A mormon socialist who specialized in corporate buyouts, downsizing, layoffs, and shipping jobs overseas.
Hmmm…
Maybe Republicans better stick with Rush.

I think it only fair that, since Obama wants me to fail, I should want Obama to fail. Liberals wanted Bush to fail. Not it’s MY TURN!

Rush (Archie Bunker) is the most ignorant of ignorants and I can’t wait until he’s just like Sarah Palin — an also-ran.

So, let me see if I have this right. If anyone speaks out in opposition to Obama, his policies, or his cabinet picks, or anything else, you are a racist, unpatriotic, anti-Christian or just a plain hater?
No, I’m thinking more like just ignorant?

1) LOL Rush…keep up the good work, the 1990-2000 style republican party should be dead in no time, and you’re certainly helping it along
2) Looking at many posts here, I once again wonder: why did we ever show conservatives how to use the web? Maybe I’m old fashioned, but back in the pre-web days, the posters were more intelligent, and the idiots only used compuserve.

Posted by: The irony of your discontent | Mar 2, 2009 5:59:20 PM
so..we’ll “have more to agree about” if have more wars (regime change) sacrificing the lives of our honored men and women in uniform as well as innocent civilians and do whatever you say.? Oh, but don’t have an abortion because that is killing.
Your post isn’t ironic – it’s just plain ludicrous.

When you become less fixated about the freedom of taking pictures of coffins rather then humbled by the sacrifices of those lying in them, perhaps we would have more to agree about.
Those are rights many of the families of these hero’s would like restored after Bush took them away.
Me, I am more concerned about some of our constitutional liberties Bush/Cheney were willing to sacrifice in order to strengthen their rein over the citizens.

“Ok, ALL you GENIUS Republicans on this board.What are your solutions for our economy,….”
Cut marginal tax rates and capital gains tax for business. This is what creates increased productivity, growth and jobs. Businesses create jobs and Obama’s stimulus does nothing for business. BTW, Obama’s “tax cut” for the middle class is not a tax cut. Reducing your withholding gives you a little more spending money but you will owe the same amount of taxes when you file. He fooled you, no?

Swampy,
You talk about the Liberal comprehension of the English Language. If you are such an expert why don’t to you “its” correctly? ( Apparently the current administration and it’s liberal following.)

The older I get, the more I realize how right Rush really is!

Apparently, from your brilliant comment, you are an excellent example of a product of the Canadian Public Educational System.
I was thinking the same thing. Those damn Cannucks are a lot more perceptive and aware then we give them credit for, eh??
Must be that good Canadian beer.

The day Bush won in 2004, I took off my Kerry bumper sticker. I hoped, even though I know it was wrong, that the president knew something I did not and that his policies would succeed.
It’s un-American to wish ill of our country’s endeavors and hope for failure of policies. Even you don’t agree with the ideology, you should hope for the success of our country.

Bridget….we already have experienced a redistribution of wealth under W, as gazillions of dollars were removed from middle class earners into the pockets of the very wealthy. W pulled a tri-fecta by simultaneously whiping out millions of middle class jobs and causing the banking industry collapse. Good job Brownie, uh, I mean Bushie.

Early American:”When is the last time you saw the gov’t do something better than the private sector?”
The internet springs to mind (invented, developed, and the backbone laid as pure “government pork”). The FDIC also seems to be an awful lot better insurance corporation than AIG.

I’m fairly liberal, but I never wanted Bush to fail, otherwise I wouldn’t have been so outraged on the many occasions when he did. I just want the people running the country to make their decisions for the country, not in order to save face. I don’t consider my pride to take any part in my politics. Which is why Limbaugh is a talk show host. He’s entitled to his opinion, but clearly no one is offering him a position of power, or a vote in any of the bodies of government. He’s on the extreme. Either side, ultra-liberal or ultra-conservative could crush this country if given too much influence. One of the problems is that conservatives often take the term “left” and “liberal” and immediately equate it with socialism/communism. This is a failure to understand the political spectrum. I could do the same, but why would I? It doesn’t make any sense to accuse you of being a fascist just because your a conservative. This helps nothing.

Swampy:”But, let’s be honest, (if that’s possible) it was a Democrat controlled Congress that reigned for the last six years.”
WHAT? The Republicans controlled the Senate until 2006. Since then they’ve launched twice as many filibusters per yer than any other Senate, ever, in the history of the nation, to prevent the Democrats from changing course.
Please, lets not only be honest but lets all live in REALITY. The Democrats HAVE NOT CONTROLLED CONGRESS THE LAST 6 YEARS. This is black-and-white, documented, no opinion or interpretation reality…

Al Franken:”Here’s a challenge. Put Limbaugh in the driver’s seat. Run him for president in 2012. Put all your money and all your wonderful philosphy in action and let’s see what happens.”
Right – like the Democrats would ever put one of their loud mouth lefty comedians up for elected office and get anywhere…

“Liberalism is our problem. Liberalism is what’s gotten us dangerously close to the precipice here”. Really? What a moron. Why does anyone listen to this drug addict fool. He should change his name to Lush Bimbo!
Our real problem is that a truly free market is able to spiral out of control and is subject to wild corrections and bubbles. So his own party shares a lot of the blame for getting us here through deregulation and by hoping that the markets would correct themselves. A truly free market is financial anarchy, and no one (not even politicians) want that. It would make this catastrophe look like a walk in the part. But as usual the Repuke-agains are preying on the general public’s vast lack of knowledge of finance. Why do you think they don’t teach our kids about this stuff? We can teach them how we killed off the “Indians” but now how to manage their money.
This country is in trouble… and blaming the 30-some-odd-day-old administration for all our ills is so beyond ignorant it only serves to accelerate the vicious cycle.

For the record, the Republicans controlled both the House and the Senate for 6 of the 8 years under Bush. I don’t know how you can come up with the misinformation that Frank and others blocked major legislation from being enacted, when point of fact is the Bush administration removed or neutered every major banking oversight committee or department of the Federal government to enable a ‘free market’ system, and did not veto a single spending or appropriations bill until the Democrats controlled the House and Senate after the 2006 elections.

obamas fine but lets be honest here clinton should have been prez then obama so we have 16 good years as it will take 8 or so to fix the republican mess trickle down has never worked nore will it we should do trickle up
pay off people homes so they can buy cars and many other things instead of giveing money to banks so they can loan it out at a ripoff rate so after 30 years you bought that house three times over get a clue thats like someone holding a gun to your head legally lol so any who pay off the homes of people with real homes 180 k and under then watch people have hope again and a life you might even see smiles oh my
the way its been since reagan will never work and yes id say reagan was one of the worst ever but all republicans are there free market well free market dont work you will never get raise’s that keep pace with the cost of liveing im wondering where my bail out is makes me wonder why i ever built one home or store or office building in thise country i build the world you all live in my bodys shot for it and i have nothing but bills yet will i get help no i think not but hey lets bail some waste of life out we would not want them to use there own cash lol id also like the stock market gone kaput why it fosters greed pure and simple lets get this health care done to i want a system like canada or france or the uk has as they have pain there treated they need a operation its there no pre approvals no notheing except a longer life lol
yeah i miss bill things were so nice then oh btw anyone notice how gas dropped when bush was on his way out lol i guess lies killing backroom deals wont get you inpeached but a bj will sad rly

Sorry for the confusion. I’m not he real Al Franken. I haven’t a clue as to his political acumen. I just like the Stuart smalley character he portrays on SNL. Atr you straight now? Good.
If Limbaugh clains to be an expert on why Obama’s qualifications are all circumspect, that Obama is a phoney, that he understands better how Republican philosophy will be the only solution then why wouldn’t he be the logical choice for the Republican nominee for 2012. I swear to the God of your choice, i will vote for him if he is on the ballot in my state.
I am willing to go that far to give him the opportunity to fail. Honest Injun!!

We will fail as a country if half of us fight against our president. It’s one thing to disagree and debate, and another to hope for failure. McCain would have stimulus package too, except the same people who picked Palin would be controlling its distribution.

“Sorry for the confusion. I’m not he real Al Franken.”
Hopefully this wasn’t aimed at me – I assumed it was strictly an assumed name, but I couldn’t resist amusing myself with a snarky comment. Liberals who believe what they spout are willing to stand before voters, conservatives… not so much.

I just realized the crux of Rush;s argument for wishing Obama fails is thet liberals did it first!
He really is the emotional equivalent of a 5 year old.

“The internet springs to mind (invented, developed, and the backbone laid as pure “government pork”). The FDIC also seems to be an awful lot better insurance corporation than AIG.”
I also prefer our military to the paid mercenaries of Blackwater.

BB,
“Obviously this is far too complex for Rush and Co. So they will continue to trash all governement programs more out of philosophy and ideology rather than practicality.”
And sheer greed. I’m with you, but the loud mouths that are still bitter have invested Jake’s board.

So many people with different opinions. Everyone is entitled to have a say. Must you fill your time with nothing but empty words and almost no facts. The unemployed and those who still jobs are under maximum stress. Yet all we seem to do is to criticize our fellow citizens. How about helping each other for a change. The last thing I need is for this country to collapse. As a 100% disabled vet I depend fully on the working people for my daily assistance. For this I am thankful, check your values please folks.

wow!!!
The masters of idealogy.
The Republicans hate socialism to the point that they forget that public schools, our Police, our Military, our Fire departements, we all benefited from are all socialistic in nature. All 100% funded by the government or public money.
Do the Republicans know what they talk about?
As mentioned before, the ‘free market’ has ZERO capital right now to even pay their own bills, so they all turn to the Government to rescue them… other words begging for socialism…
In a normal course of 100% capitalism, all these banks and insurance companies which are already insolvent would have to file for bankruptcy (at least chap11)… understood? So let AIG, Bank of America, GMAC, Chase/Wamu all fail?
GOP’s,- you cannot have it both ways. Make up your mind.

but he is a private citizen and should not be singled out for punishment by the federal government.”
Just like the cowardly Rush you claim persecution that does not exist(impending Fairness Doctrine) so that your lies and hatred go unchallenged.
That time is over.

For any Republican who believes that the rest of us are “scared” of Rush Limbaugh…
How out of touch with the rest of America can you possibly be?
You have no leader, so the White House is defining one FOR you: The leader of the GOP is now a loud-mouthed radio personality.

Obama lied and Democracy died.
Go Rush! Go Steele!

It is somewhat amazing for people to just have no compassion, what happens to some of you when the country was derailing? You can say whatever you want about Obama, one thing, I’m sure of is that “the Lord is his shepherd and he shall not want or fail” as, he is the country’s. Wish yourself and family what you wish the others. If Limbaugh wants Obama to feel it is just plain common sense, he is a noted failure himself.
