In addition to Joe the Plumber, I think it’s actually a good thing that Zero is after Rush
~~~
I kind of agree. In doing so, what they have
done is target and identify their enemy, and
raised him up to equal status with them.
That is huge .... the leader of the free world
publicly agitating, demonizing and baiting a
talkshow host?
Can you even fathom in your wildest dreams that
Pres. George W. Bush would raise the specter of
Randi Rhodes, Stephanie Miller or Ed Schultz in
such a personal way in a presser or public speech?
Or that Dana Perino would’ve stooped to the subjects
and language of Gibbs, the official crank mouthpiece?
Absurd.
It has diminished the status of the highest office
in the land.
In the continuing psychodrama, he has galvanized
Rush’s audience to a new level of disdain and
activism.
The more his speech has been replayed over and over
again (thank you, Greta and Sean) new people have
gotten to hear him.
They’ve now repeatedly heard him factually say that
conservatives love people, we want them to be the best
they can be, that we love and cherish our country and
our freedoms, and that we’re all granted the same
opportunity for the pursuit of happiness, but there
may not be equal outcomes, depending on effort and
passion.
It can’t be bad that millions more heard that message.
Bottom line: in demonizing Rush, he has actually
demonized Rush’s huge audience. Us.
I think that’s a big part of who he and Rahmbo
really have the long knives out for = us.
The totality of misery and pain from this crew
in the daily lives of Americans and the extreme
changes and coming massive losses of liberties
and net worth have yet to be fully realized or
experienced by us yet.
Give the harsh realities some time to fester and
putrify in the souls of the angry, newly poor,
oppressed, overly controlled, law abiding, hard
working, responsible, tax paying voters.
And then, you know what they say about unintended
consequences ....
The American people didn't want to get involved at the outset of WWII, either.
Up until Dec 7, 1941, the countries invaded or "annexed" by the Axis Powers include: Austria, Sudetenland, Bohemia & Moravia (Czechoslovakia), Memel, Slovakia, Poland, Denmark, Norway, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, The UK Channel Islands, Greece, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and others.
Then Pearl Harbor was attacked. When it affected us directly, we were forced to respond -- for justice and self-preservation if nothing else.
I am not to impressed by Rush's joining at the preservation of his own livelihood in Talk Radio. Don't get me wrong: I appreciate what he brings to the fight. But frankly, he should have joined the battle HARD AND HEAVY before this, instead of giving RELATIVE aide and comfort to the enemy like he has up until recently!
To paraphrase a Rush-ism: A snake is a snake, a tiger is a tiger, Barack Obama is Barack Obama... if you're waiting for Obama's agenda to affect you directly before you get involved, you're already behind the power curve!

On the contrary, looks to me like Rush has raised them in status somewhat; although.... whale sh!t being at the bottom of the ocean and all that....

They can't hurt "US" without hurting their base, and turning that base against themselves.....They haven't figured that out yet.
STARWISE, here’s someone who agrees with you. ;o)
Obama’s Limbaugh Strategy Will Fail
Sad but telling and not altogether unexpected that a presidency allegedly about unity and the future is revealing itself to be about nothing more than creating divisions and power in the end. This strategy won’t just fail, it’ll backfire on Obama. He didn’t have a united opposition. Now he will and ultimately it isn’t about Rush.
Democrats are engaging in a concerted campaign to link the national Republican Party to conservative talk-radio show host Rush Limbaugh, an effort that will ramp up over the next few days in the form of another round of television ads and an increased rhetorical focus on the issue from Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim Kaine, according to sources familiar with the plans.
Any new attention Limbaugh gets fromthis won’t hurt him as much as it will define and hurt liberalism in America. He isn’t an unlikeable sort. And he’s perfectly capable of standing up for himself.
The American people don’t like witch hunts. They don’t like political correctness and nanny states, which are Rush’s real opponents, not Obama. Team Zero is miscalculating in a great many ways these days. Big surprise.

Looks like Rahmbo’s work behind the scenes since Rahmbo detests the Rushster.
