Limbaugh says America is over go home put your pitchforks away and BOHICA: No thanks I’ll fight on

The United States of America is over! I just heard it from Rush Limbaugh! He knows everything so he can’t be wrong can he? I’m sure I missed the announcement that Limbaugh is moving out of America as he always implied he would; remember “I’ll tell you when it is time to panic.”

I can only conclude Rush is right. Isn’t he? I mean because Rush and a seemingly endless parade of conservative “thinkers” have said so, I must now put my pitchfork away because there is no use in trying. Rush told me so. He’s not wrong, right?

By Limbaugh’s thinking the few of us who want to fight should give up and stay home next year. That will give us 300 Democrats in Congress and 80 seats in the Senate so Franklin Delano Obama to finish us off. But giving up is all that Rush can say so that’s all we need to know.

I know I’m giving not up even though Rush said I should. YES we got kicked in the ash by this deal, but I really don’t give a damn what Limbaugh or anyone else says about what the future of my country will be. It will be up to me and other TEA partiers to save America and that is what we will do.

Rush might think we will accept “It can’t be fixed because it is in the budget from last year and the year before that and so on,” but he is very wrong, very wrong indeed!

Limbaugh can sit in a mud puddle sucking up dirty water, feeling sorry for himself and, but I’ll keep fighting. I have a family to protect and a nation to preserve so I don’t have the luxury of self-pity…..

RE :”Sounds to me like Rush had too much faith in the conservative base who didn't live up to his expectations. So why should he be faulted for that?That's all Rush is, a political motivator..........If Republicans and so called conservatives don't live up to his expectations then it's no fault of his own.........

You sound like me about 16 years ago with your faith in him. His big mistake was believing that voters wanted a shutdown, average voters are not his loyal ditto-head. The problem isnt necessarily that Republicans went into that battle, the problem was believing a shutdown would be popular congressional Republicans bragged on camera that they would do it, while Clinton played the opposite act. Dick Armey has admmitted that was mistake.

Over the years Rush has spun that story so many different ways like the Grandma who reads you a kids story over and over by changing the details each time so you never get bored of it. It all depends what he is trying to 'motivate' his audience for as you say,

The truth is that the Texas executive is not extremely powerful. The power lies with the Lt.Gov is more powerful. Except when there are special sessions and then the gov. sets the agenda.

I see you missed this month’s Texas Monthly, where they discuss Perry and that tired old canard you’re using for a talking point that has been out dated since Rick brought boots to the state house. TM warns the yankees coming down to not bore Texans with that one. Perry has blown it asunder. Check it out and get with the times.

He put his trust in government to certain point and now he has been disappointed by them.

Rush trusting the government? What planet are you from and what are you smoking? Get a grip!

And El Rushbo’s solution, as so many of these talking heads, VOTE FOR MYTH for president...

I have never, and I repeat, never, ever heard him say that! Please supply a absolute quote...

I’ve picked the ‘poisen’ that America has picked: Sarah Palin, and she is the only candidate left standing at this point.

I've got a much better example of Rush being completely, irretrievably, *WRONG*.

Coming off of Gulf War I, Bush '41 sported a sparkling 90%+ approval rating.

He was so widely seen as a shoo-in that most of the Democrat heavyweights sat out, not even trying for the nomination.

But one young rapist pervert up-and-coming Governor, William Jefferson Blythe Clinton, and his Yale wife, Hillary Rodham ("Two for the Price of One"), went for the nomination.

Rush had someone outside of the Demcratic National Convention, passing out Kool-Aid, a macabre reference to the mass suicide in Jonestown (btw, Jim Jones was a *Communist* and had been well known in San Fran circles), and to the Dems' supposed chances in the election.

Clinton won; he started the "focus like a laser beam" nonsense; "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"; effectually selling the Chicoms ICBM guidance technology and the warhead plans for (at least) the W-88; began the 24x7x365 campaign and the "War Room"; inflicted James Carville on the world; attempted to introduce Hillarycare; made "blow jobs" a household word and indirectly encouraged America's youth to explore the hookup culture; gave us Jocelyn Elders; was impeached, but not convicted by the Senate (partly perhaps due to the mysteriously obtained 800 FBI files on Washington insiders); had a brother who supposedly was a cocaine addict, and himself had rumors of MANY shadowy dealings in Arkansas; had a mysterious "suicide" of a top aide, whose office was *in* the White House, which was investigated not by the FBI or Secret Service, but by the Park Police; was creditably accused of rape; had his minions mount a successful PR blitz against an active independent counsel; and was elected twice despite NEVER achieving as much as 50% of the electorate; and served as a political springboard for the damnable Al Gore.

It is partly due to Rush Limbaugh that the phrase "drinking the Kool-Aid" became part of the political vocabulary -- even though Clinton WON, despite Limbaugh's confidence.

Cheers!

And the point of this debate is, we all know the deal is not good. Is it the best the GOP can do? I have to side with people like Allen West who say yes. But is it a good deal? No.

It is the best we could *safely* do without risking a huge orchestrated media backlash designed to hang the economy around the GOP's neck like a flaming tire.

Cheers!

More lately Rush sometimes comes up with the craziest themes on his show. A few months ago he got off on a theme how Palin is hated by Conservative women because she is attractive, for two days in a row. No-one least of all those counting on Palin running (then) could understand what he was trying to do.

He’s expecting our politicians to come up with a balanced budget under the Keynesian model of economics. We’ve had a national debt that took off around 1970 that is now going into an asymptotic curve. That’s 40 years of spend worse than a drunken sailor and he’s expecting it to change. The politicians are just a bunch of con-artists who promise one thing and do another. The District of Criminals is what I call it.

How many times do these criminals in business suits have to lie to the American people (including Rush) to realize those in government do not have the best interest of the American people at heart?

Our financial house of cards cannot support itself anymore. This was just one more jury-rigged reinforcement of that building that is about to collapse. When it comes down it is going to take all nations down. Just watch. It’s coming. The train is running down the tracks toward a train wreck of unprecedented proportions and the engineers in the locomotive just keep shoveling the coal in. All we can do is ride this wreck out and hopefully a percentage will survive the crash.

But don’t worry. The problem the government has created will be solved by government, too!

I'm a native Houstonian so the yankee part does not apply. I'll checked out the Texas Monthly thing and here is what you are referring to:

For most of history, Texas has been considered a “weak governor” state. That changed under Perry’s leadership. His lengthy tenure as governor has allowed him to appoint political allies in every single state agency, effectively establishing a Cabinet-style government and giving him vastly more power than any of his predecessors.

So, if Perry has so much stroke why do the Gardasil thing via executive order? Maybe because while he does have more power as they describe above it still not change the legislative process? And then why have so many special sessions if he is so powerful? He may hold the record for those. If he is so powerful why let the sanctuary city issue die when he could have pushed it through or the TSA anti-groping bill?

Interesting, eh? If I agree with you then Perry killed the sanctuary city bill cuz he wanted to. Why? Was it because of HEB? Nah! I know why. It was because of a fellow I know personally and like a lot. Bob Perry. Great guy. A self-made guy. The destroyer of John Kerry.

We will see how things go for Perry...

He has shown himself to be a complete and contemptible empty suit just as ineffective and dangerous as we knew he would be. As anyone who had a trace of patriotism or understanding of reality should have known.

It cannot be radically and rapidly changed through the constitutional means available to the electorate.

A Parliamentary system can be changed in one election. Ours was constructed to provide stability.

Even the Roosevelt landslide did not change the government overnight. And it is unlikely we can achieve that dramatic a victory in 2012.

The folks at DU believe Obama caved and the radical Left is hysterical with disapproval.

How a minority of conservatives gives us the House is a feat only your imagination can conceive of. It ain’t the case in reality.

Rush knew very well that an agreement would be worked out wherein the Debt ceiling would be raised. As did almost everyone here so there is no good reason for acting all Virginal when it happens.

Since the minority of conservatives did not get its was it cannot be said the GOP “caved” in any real sense. There was never the complete or even substantive agreement with the conservatives necessary to “cave”.

Bonds are held by holders of every description and are the sacred word of the government of the People. Abrogation would be something only Democrats would even consider.

Bonds are not included in any of the six money supply figures that are tracked. Bonds are not a medium of exchange; they are an income earning asset and, as such, have been purchased by pension funds, insurance companies and banks. Their velocity of circulation is very low since they are NOT money. Replacing their value as bonds with money would place cash in the owners hands and it has a MUCH higher velocity of circulation. For this reason and the fact that the money supply has vastly increased inflation would go through the roof.

On of the tools of the monetary authority is the selling of bonds which removes cash from the money supply and tamps down inflationary pressures. Buying and selling bonds has been used by the Fed since its inception and by the Money Center Banks before that.

The Depression is the result of over-regulation, the Obamacare debacle, the insane Real Estate policy of the RATs and the anti-energy policy of the Administration. Change those things and recovery will begin.

The way I see it, the water is nearing a rapid boil and the frog is bathing away in the pot. I just don’t see the American people jumping out en masse. We’re cooked.

But I will continue to pray for a turnaround. I think the Good Lord is all that now stands between us and totalitarian socialism.

Thank you for a very informative post. Anybody who can’t see that we are in an economic depression is either not looking very hard, or happens to be in the elite group who is thriving on government dollars during this depression.

FWIW, it depresses me to no end that I feel that America has passed the tipping point to inevitable totalitarian socialism. My personal life is very good. By all rights I should be a very happy person - but I am not, and that is due solely to knowing that a kid born today won’t know a fraction of the freedom I’ve known. By the time he is my age, the TSA will be doing full strip searches on every flyer. This kid and all of the others working will be taxed to death to support 100 million bums.

See, I made myself depressed again? Boo hoo.

” As anyone who had a trace of patriotism or understanding of reality should have known.”

Coming from Philadelphia/Delaware area Joe represents the height of phony politician common to that area.

A joke who somehow became powerful due to the “ where’s mine crowd” or “ election what’s that” is it more important than watching “ Jersey Shore”....
