Hey, Leonard! I want Odumbo to fail, because what he wants to do to America is pretty much everything I oppose. Ergo, his failure would be America’s salvation and his success would be America’s doom. Leonard, you libs are forever associating one’s opposition to one of your chosen heroes to smack of something personal, as you always reduce everything to a personal level. However, in Odumbo’s case he has steadfastly refused to tell the American people anything about his past, or about himself pesonally (and the MSM, which includes you, Leonard, refused to even begin to question him, and thus you are complicit in his throwing a cover over who he is) as a person, so all we know about him is his politics; thus, all we know about him is his politics, and, quite frankly, his politics suck.

Exactly, Rush said if Obama persues a socialist agenda he would have no choice but to hope that he fails.

Lenny Pitts and any other idealogues trying to be “journalists” should not write about topics they know nothing about. Rush hopes 0 fails to get his agenda enacted because it’s bad policy and bad for America.

And you, of course, Leonard Pitts, want no attention and want no one to read your article.

Idiot. Columnists, talk show hosts, anchor people on TV, entertainers: all of you want attention. That’s your JOB! To sell advertising space or time. Authors want to sell books. Attention can earn you a living. Haven’t you figured that out? Or are you pretending you don’t know the secret? If you are dull, you will get no attention. Your newspaper will fire you.

You, yourself, are using Limbaugh’s name to get attention for yourself.

Detroit Free Press: ‘Which Books Would Palin Want to Ban?’
Posted by Mike Bates on Sunday, September 28, 2008 1:49:52 PM
Last week, the Detroit Free Press’s Web site posted “Which books would Palin want to ban?,” a column by syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts Jr. Pitts begins with a series of possible questions for Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Then he makes his point:

Wow, every day SOMEONE comes out against Rush? Rush is such a treasure to this country — a man who speaks the truth boldly. I think we should watch his back.

Meaning, it was spewed by a clown in the media circus to kick a familiar sequence into motion: angry denunciation by bloggers, pundits and supporters of President Obama (the “he” whose failure is hoped), followed by Rush Limbaugh refusing to retract a word, a courageous truth teller who will not be moved.

This guy is in desperate need of an editor. Or maybe he should just quit crack. Either would go a long way, probably.

This asshat was in our paper this weekend. The first thing that struck me was that this "journalist" writes like a 4th grader (my apologies to 4th graders).

These libtards always write articles based on what they were told that someone else said. How about they actually LISTEN to the show and then write the article? That used to be taught in Journalism 101.

“What Rush meant was ... yadda yadda yadda.”

Well, Leonard, this is why you suck as a analyst. Conservatives don't say things like this. We don't say, "meant....". What we say is, "Hey CHRISSY! This is what Limbaugh SAID..."

The country doesn’t matter. The “side” does. And Limbaugh’s side seems angry in power and angry out. It’s as if anger is all they really have.

Second, Leonard, you may want to go back into even RECENT history to read some of YOUR SIDE'S words during the eight years of Bush. I knew that this would be the standard template. Whine and whine and whine for 8 YEARS and the minute we say something about the Messiah, they will chant, "Wow. You guys are ALWAYS angry!"

What I find most hilarious is when they write articles TRYING to describe Conservatives, in reality, they describe liberals to a tee!

Yeah right and Leo Pitts doesn’t.

Ha!

Jealousy is a very ugly emotion.

Hypocrisy is uglier.

Just asking the same thing....

Obama isn’t socialist. With over 51% of the country dependent on government, We’re already socialist!!!!!
Obama is Marxist. He wants MORE government control.
Listen to what he says, not what you think/want him to say:
code words i.e.
‘reward workers who created the wealth’
condemns ‘selfishness as a virtue’ (sounds bad but it refers to Randian ‘rational self interest’)

A communist is someone who reads Marx.
An anti-communist is someone who understands Marx.

Rush may like attention, but who doesn't. However, the champions in this class of people live and work in Washington, D.C. - I mean the narcissistic, self-worshippers who are found in Congress and those who have just taken control of the White House. They claim to be the peoples’ servants, but in fact consider the people as serfs.

Rush stands to make obscene amounts of money off conservatives for the next eight years, listening to their cathartic rants and ventings on the air; from ratings and ad dollars on the network; and name-dropping at the same cocktail parties that The Left attends, because after all, we’re one big happy entertainment industry.

Because Rush is exactly that: an entertainer.

Leonard Pitts is a bitter, partisan, racist jackass.
