I am not defending Rush, I think he is an idiot, just like these other flame throwers like Hannity, but he is probably speaking to the truth of what many feel... I would say many rooted for high gas prices, to struggle in Iraq, etc. to lower W's numbers to get the Republicans out of office. Politics is sickening.

This is why I stopped listening to Limbaugh years ago. A true American should NEVER want their leader to fail. You may want certain policies President Obama is in favor of to not pass, ... I have several of those. But I could NEVER wish failure on any US president. It is extremely unpatriotic IMHO.

:lol: Way to turn the topic. Everyone focus on the WEBSITE and not on what Rush said.

Way to simply brush off the sick people who frequent these websites. I challenge you to find similar comments on Rush's website. Liberals seem to have no trouble condemning people like Rush for using hyperbole and satire in his show while turning a blind eye to the real hatred that oozes out of the many hate-filled and rumor mongering left wing sites, links to which have frequently appeared in this very forum.

 

Rush knows that he can throw out a controversial sound bite and that it will be quoted out of context and widely repeated by the mainstream media. These sick left wing websites unwittingly provide invaluable publicity for this show because some people actually read or listen to more of his words than what gest spoon fed to rabid left wingers who frequent websites like Think Progress, the Huffington Post, MoveOn.org, and the Democratic Underground.

I didn't brush anything off. Open up a thread on it and I will certainly comment. :lol:

Rush is an idiot whether or not you want to talk about it, but I'm sure you enjoyed taking this thread as another chance to bash liberals.

Limbaugh's a moron, he doesn't represent Conservatives, so I wouldn't worry about it.

I'm so glad to hear you say that RTS. Thank you :thumb:

 

Although I would change it to "most" Conservatives.

Honestly, I think you're being a bit unfair to Hoot. He's no worse than me. :devil:

 

Truth is, Hoot's a good guy and very smart about politics. He's a fountain of information and he's a very honest guy. I love reading his posts.

True, there are your fringe on both sides.

Rush is over most peoples heads, if you do not listen to him ona a regular basis you won't understand him. His arrogance is all part of the show and sarcasism runs rampant. He can easily be taken out of context and he enjoys it.

I have several of those. But I could NEVER wish failure on any US president. It is extremely unpatriotic IMHO.

A patriotic American can certainly hope that a president fails to implement a wrong-headed agenda, for the sake of the nation. Very few people want to see their own country fail, but wanting to see Obama fail to remove abortion restrictions, force coal companies out of business, increase utility bills, add restrictions to our Second Amendment rights, and to implement a host of other liberal policies that will be with us long after Obama leaves office is not the least bit un-American.

 

Absent a sharp reversal by Obama on a large number of policies, it is difficult to understand how any conservative can hope that Obama "succeeds," if success is defined by implementing a wide array of liberal policies. I will selectively support Obama when I agree with his decisions, which seems like a reasonable approach to me. (His plan to gradually draw down troops in Iraq and increase troops in Afghanistan is one such policy that I will be supporting.)

 

What Rush said, aside from his intentional sound bite is really no different than what tens of millions of patriotic Americans will be doing over the next four years.

True, there are your fringe on both sides.

I have no problem with him, I've never met the guy. I just don't like the fact that he takes every topic he can and turn it into a Liberal bashing.
