Democrats Launch Petition Against Rush Limbaugh Tuesday, January 27, 2009 By Melanie Hunter-Omar

(CNSNews.com) – The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has launched an online petition for readers to express their outrage at conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh for saying last week that he wanted President Barack Obama to fail.

The petition includes a 19-second sound byte of Limbaugh, saying, “If I wanted Obama to succeed, I’d be happy the Republicans have laid down. I don’t want this to work. So I’m thinking of replying to this guy, say ‘okay, I’ll send you a response, but I don’t need 400 words, I need four: I hope he fails.’”

Meanwhile, Obama advised Republicans last Friday to stop listening to Limbaugh if they wanted to get along with Democrats and the administration.

“You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done,” Obama said to Republican leaders who met with the president to talk about the stimulus package.

The Republican National Committee did not return calls requesting comment.

What a bunch of immature people we have in the gov’t.....how ridiculous is this?

It's called socialism and it's only going to get worse so long as this administration is in power.

So did I! We should freep that petition with praise & cheers for Rush & freedom of speech & freedom of association. I’m getting tired of Obama telling me who I can listen to or associate with.

“I didn’t think I had to spell it for you.”

RUDE, and disrespectful.

Rush is smarter then to play games with information he has no proof is true. THAT is why he is so good. The Democrats would knock him down sooo fast since they HATE him so much.

If Rush REALLY wanted 0bama to fail, he would have gotten behind a REAL conservative in the GOP primaries of 2008 instead of pontificating while refusing to take a stand.
His so-called ‘Operation Chaos’ did nothing to help conservatives. If he’s not part of the solution, he’s part of the problem.

Spot on!!! He didn't take a strong stand against a flaming socialist by supporting a staunch conservative and this is the result.


Uh oh, prepare for waves of incoming, kneejerk Ditto Heads, all of them telling you how stupid you are.

LOL

Thanks for pointing out what is obvious! (not that you are stupid but no ditto head!)

I will not reduce myself to name calling.

Oh few gawdsakes, grow a hide chump. You want rude, I can give ya rude.

Rush is smarter then to play games with information he has no proof is true. THAT is why he is so good. The Democrats would knock him down sooo fast since they HATE him so much.

It isn't about playing games pal, it's about addressing the facts, which remain:

- 0bama has spent thousands upon thousands of dollars to conceal the details of his birth, his school records, much of his personal history.

- The so-called 'birth certificate' that was posted has been proven to be a forgery.

- NO hospital, medical facility, or clinic in Hawaii has provided any confirmation that 0bama was born on their premises in August '61.

- The original 'vault' copy of the certificate remains under seal of the Governor of Hawaii, and has not been seen by the public.

- No other President-elect in the history of our Republic has gone to such lengths to prevent public disclosure of the details of his birth.

- Chief Justice John Roberts engaged in a highly improper exparte proceeding by meeting WITH 0bama at the Supreme Court prior to January 20th, while there were (and are) still court cases on the docket addressing this matter.

THOSE are facts that Rush Limbaugh ought to be more than happy to discuss with the American people. He's got the biggest microphone, but in this case, he's got the worst case of laryngitis ever seen in broadcasting.

Now go contemplate your delicate sensitivities.

Good idea, I doubt that you're very competent at that either.

I must’ve missed the petitions against Randi Rhodes when she was REPEATEDLY making on air death threats against President Bush on Air America.

The Stalinist Left make me puke.

Will there be another letter for Rush to auction off?

Still waiting for them to censure Jack Murtha for slurring our troops. Traitor.

This means Democrats are spending all their time listening to Rush too!!!

Wrong. They get redacted excerpts via Soros' Media Matters group.

“Now go contemplate your delicate sensitivities.”

Thank you for your kind remarks.

As for you post I read it several times and found no PROOF the “o” has or does not have a B.C.

I could use your same points in the case of UFO’s conspiracies for proof but it isn’t enough, mkjessup.
Rush is smart to stay clear of this topic of the B.C.

As if Rush credited Polarik's proof Obama's Certificate of Live Birth is a forgery.

It might have made a substantive difference in the spreading of the truth.

Unfortunately Rush like all the others scoffed at Obama's constitutional disqualification.
