If Rush had actually come out and endorsed a conservative GOP candidate (which precluded McInsane or any of those other RINOs), we might not be witnessing this garbage coming out of the 0bamunist regime right now.

Expect that to happen if Sarah Palin runs in 2012. She will be the perfect candidate to turn back Barack.
Only four days in office and he's shown what an unsophisticated cretin he is.

I think when the figures are in we might see a more homogenized group in both camps. I'm guessing race is passe and no longer a factor, except for those who still use it to their advantage.

I mean, how many people still watch Archie Bunker because they identify with his hang-ups? And how many black comics still have a 'hate whitey' schtick? It's gone, man. Passe.

So pass me the 'collids' and biscuits if'n you would would, please. Thankew.

Obama will be a looking a lot like Jimmy C when he’s done. But right now the media is pumping him up like he’s a member of the football hall of fame.

Omaba is everybody’s favorite quarterback. The media can go to hell.

These people HAVE to start commuinicating with one another pronto. In the age of the internet this should’nt be a very tall order.

In this matter we’ve got to work a hell of a lot harder for Him before He will do that. He smiled down upon our founding fathers for THEIR efforts.

Such a strategy could blow up in both Bambi's and Rinos faces. I sense a strong chance of many republican house members getting primaried by conservative candidates, with many losing.

It truly could be 1994 all over again with both democrat and republican incumbents losing with the GOP picking up large numbers.

And it could go very badly the other way if Obama decides to act like 1995-2000 Clinton and avoid the hard left of his party and not cater to their whims. The Rats could gain massive majorities that way.

I don't think Obama can do that though.

“president of the usa feels threatened by a talk radio host”

Bingo! This is harder than he thought and he may be surprised to realize that so many people disagree with him.

I would scream at the top of my lungs at such hypocrisy from Democrats if anyone would listen. They only want to work together to get their agenda. Republicans make me so frustrated that some of them will work with anyone if you just pat them on the head, regardless of agenda. Bush was so magnanimous and look where that got him. He didn't cajole dems into working together, he bent over to give them their way to make them happy. Every chance dems are out telling media what is wrong with Republican rule.

I read here more than I write. I am also a LONG time Dittohead. Zero and the Koolaids have been acting smarmy and overreaching for a week now. He's shown his arrogance and his narcissistic true colors since he flubbed the “oaf of office” - twice. However, he was just raising the proverbial fur on my back then; he singed it when he attacked The Godfather. Those jerks only think they've seen a march on DC. They are too stupid to realize the “Rush on DC” will be with BMWs all the way down to tractors. Rush is the defacto leader of this country. He's been the only leader we have had in years. I am just sick of Zero and the Koolaids already.

Then, of course, there was the 4.some MILLION DOLLAR Letter from Dingy Harry.

I thought about that too, and wondered how many new listeners Rush got after that episode.

PRICELESS ,the Hypocrit who waits till Friday Night with no press to sign the Executive order to have American Taxpayers fund Abortions all Over the World ,and Kill embryos for stem Cell Research then I read in My Morning Paper where Obama is quoted saying this “Our Law is by definition a Codification of Morality ,much of it grounded in the Judeo-Christian tradition”.
This guy is a Fraud who cannot take any kind of Criticism because it all hits home ,he Knows he is in over his head and is not qualified for this job and does not want to be reminded of it .
Remeber in his first News conference after being elected Senator from Illinois he was asked if he was going to be on the National Ticket for President and he said he does believe in applying for a job you are not qualified for. I agree you fraud are an idiot

He is setting himself up for Criticism as a CENSOR when he silences talk radio by letting people know that Rush Irks him.

“Rush on DC”

Would make Dan's Bake Sale look like a neighborhood pot luck.

A sociopath can't tolerate criticism -- especially public criticism. He whined about Hannity during the campaign, but he didn't have the guts to go after Rush -- until now.

I'm sure what he said yesterday is the same thing he's said privately to so-called leaders on both sides of the aisle, but his time his hubris let him shoot his mouth off in a group, giving cover to anyone who chose to "leak" his comments.

I hope he continues to flap his lips, all puffed up with the belief that he will "rule" for years and no one can stop him. Let the public see what an arrogant, self-obsessed megalomaniac they have chosen in their assembled foolishness.

One problem.

Reid, Daschle, and Clinton weren't a minority.

How did his little comments about McNabb turn out? Oh, it got him fired.

Hope Rush’s tax returns for the last thirty years are neat and tidy.

Rush convicted of an infraction with heavy fines and possible jail time at the hands of an admitted tax cheat is exactly the sort of thing I'd expect from this administration.

Isn’t that hilarious, the Great One, leader of the greatest nation on earth is afraid of a radio host who maintains his job and salary only because his program meets the needs of the people! If Rush didn’t perform he could be fired tomorrow. Wow! Wonder what the great one would say if he were to meet someone who hated this country, bet he be a real tiger!

You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.

The best we can hope for now is that we DON'T get things done. Republicans need to act like an opposition party for once.
