Rush told you months ago that he’d tell you when it was time to be afraid.
I think we just got the “bulletin.”
It is not so much that he may be driving you crazy but rather he is showing how the tag team of the government and the press are in total control. Crazy not, frightened yes!
The fact is, "fundamental change" has pooped itself onto our front porches.
What we need now is truth, not bullhockey.
The Court deserves the negativity Rush is giving it and More because it did not do it’s job. People need to know that 5 justices abdicated their constitutional role. The Court is the Last resort and if Roberts can be influenced to change his vote by the liberal media then he needs to resign.
As for what we do, Rush is shouting from the housetops that we must turn out to vote straight R up and down ticket no matter what. I know if I am alive, I’ll be voting. Nothing will keep me away; not fever, famine-nothing. Somebody better be scared IMO.
I think there are a dozen ways to overcome and defeat this, but all of them at some point require that OUR politicians do stuff that is unpopular or which will be portrayed by the media as cruel or heartless. And all of my solutions would require incredible stick-to-it-iveness.
You’re blaming the messenger?
I do hope he grows out of it.
It’s Mitch McConnell who should be driving ALL of us up a wall. Instead of coming out fiery and vowing to repeal this monstrosity, he comes out tired and beaten and says the task will be almost impossible.
Then resign your position, Mitch, and let someone with more fire power lead the charge if you are so incapable.
Rush’s days of kneepadding the GOP are over.
Good for him.
In July 2012 - what can we be optimistic about?
I’m sorry, our leaders have compromised and worked with American leftists to a point where there is no longer any room to compromise!
For starters get yourself and your friends to nonstop push hard for your State to refuse to set up an exchange.
Rush is right.
The Obamacare decision is a disaster, and Obamacare itself is a disaster.
Arguing “tax” vs. “penalty” is a distraction.
Discussing Robert’s mindset, or trying to find a “silver lining”, is a distraction.
The one and only thing to do now is to communicate to our fellow Americans that Obamacare is a disaster, it is the law of the land, and the one and only way to repeal it is to elect GOP majorities to both houses of Congress AND elect Mitt Romney President.
Again, Rush is right. Exactly right.
It is the FR He-Man Mitt Haters Club who are wrong, and they are among the target audience of Rush’s message today.
If you don’t see the most damaging Supreme Court ruling in two generations to be of sufficient urgency to be the topic of attention for this week, I suspect that you might find NPR’s programming more to your liking!
Rush is usually a perpetual optimist. The fact that he isn’t in this case is very telling, and telegraphing the grave nature of this situation. For the first time in our lives we are staring face-to-face into the death of America, due to Obamacare and this SC ruling.
Rush, like many people, still believe we have a representative republic in which the control of our nation's leadership can be made peacefully at the ballot box.
I no longer share that opinion. I believe that our only options are for the conservative states to either secede or engage in civil war, the sequel. IMO, our government is irreparably broken, the system is fraught with corruption and changing the faces in Congress or the WH doesn't change the corrupt system they have created.
These are things Rush can't say. His attacks on the SCOTUS are justified. The justices are selected on the basis of political orientation with Roe v. Wade being the benchmark. And, yet, they are supposed to be apolitical and rule strictly on a given law's applicability to established law and the Constitution. Rush, by going after the SCOTUS, is, essentially, shining a light on a fire. Before the ZeroCare ruling, we liked to pretend that the court's decisions were not predicated on political affiliation, but on the rule of law. Given the twists, turns and convolutions that CJ Roberts took to arrive at the majority opinion, there is no longer any pretense that the SCOTUS pays any attention to either established law or applicability to the Constitution, but to political affiliation.
The "whats" and "whys" of Roberts' actions have yet to be revealed and may NEVER be revealed. For now, it is what it is and we have to deal with it.
However, no matter how you slice it, our system is in serious trouble, America is dying before our eyes and our complacency will let it happen.
