RUSH: My friends, there's another reason why the Sheehan thing is going to derail, why this train is going to derail, and that's because look at who her public relations outfit is. It's the mainstream press. They don't have universal respect anymore. They don't even have any concept of how they are harming her cause by championing it, but I want to talk about something larger here with you liberals. I know there are a lot of you here in the audience. We hear from you now and then, and it may be a waste of my time but I'm going to try it anyway. But I think you all need to look at things differently than you do. You need to take your focus off of government. You know how absurd it is for us to hear that a war is ignoble because the president's kids aren't there or because congressmen's kids aren't there? Do you know how irrelevant that is? Do you know who makes this country work? Can I ask you people on the left if you have the slightest idea who makes this country work? Because I'll tell you, it's not the president, I don't care who he is, and it's not Congress, and I don't care who they are. The people who make this country work are the people, and they're people you've never heard of. They are people unlike Cindy Sheehan, who are not seeking publicity, they are not seeking fame. They take life seriously. They try to mix their work and pleasure into a proper balance. They try to raise their kids the right way. They're doing everything they can to follow the straight-and-narrow. They sometimes slip off, but the people who make this country work, the fabled average American.

I was in the car listening. I thought it was great.
BTTT.
See, now there I go ranting! :)
Rush is the preeminent political analyst out there.
bttt
I got more good news for Rush. America is about to get Heavenly reinforcements, who are going to make "the image of the beast" the MSM is constantly trying to prop up, melt faster than the wicked witch from the west.
A good friend of mine had an awesome dream recently from the Lord, and what is coming is "unspeakable, and full of glory". Good is going to completely overwhelm "all the works of the Devil", on every level, until the "knowledge of the Lord covers the Earth like the waters cover the sea." All things (that came from the fall and sin) will be done away, and all things will become new. Give God the glory and Christ all the praise for saving us from ourselves!!!
I copied and printed out the entire thing to read. "Whose Kids Are In Iraq? The Ones Who Make The Country Work" is one of the finest and most sensible speeches that I have ever read.
Just as I have always loved Gen. Patton's "Address to the Troops" in 1944 as a motivational speech, I love this one by Limbaugh today. I hope it is passed around and shared far and wide.

Rush was on fire today.
Loved every blooming minute of it.
In the beginning of the show Rush mentioned FreePers wearing GiTMO gear.
Anyone who has a job and isn't taking money from taxpayers makes the country work.
I haven't been to his web site yet but will before the night is over.
ok...
I was recently sent an email by a Marine who was sent an essay written by another Marine which made some of the same points that Rush's caller made. I placed the sender in my kill-file, as I was sorely disappointed in him.
Rush made me very proud in the way that he articulated how our service people are denigrated by those who place more emphasis on the service of politician's kids.
His incredible speech is well-worth book marking.
He was talking about FreePers wearing GiTMO gear in Texas. Made me feel proud!
