Frum used to work in the Bush WH, until he wrote his book while there and GOT DUMPED.

Ever since, he's been trying to parlay his connection somehow into the limelight. He's the worst kind of whoring weasel pundit.

And, he's a neocon from the insular Partisan Review set that includes Kristol, Podhoretz and Krauthammer. You won't find any of these three that'll criticize Frum. Watch and see if I'm wrong.

Well, for Frum to write a cover story for Newsweek against Rush pretty much seals his exit from the Conservative movement, and the Republican pary for that matter. There’s not much more he could do.

Newsweek is the most pro-Obama liberal mouthpiece out there so he knows what he’s doing.

Good Riddance, David.

Meanwhile, Newsweek in recent weeks has run covers proclaiming that socialism is the wave of the future, that Islamic terrorism is here to stay and there’s nothing we can do about it, and now that Rush Limbaugh needs to be shut down. All this as their circulation continues to crumble.

At least certain people and publications are bringing out their true colors.

Whenever a major party loses big in a national election (or two), there’s always an internal power struggle as various factions vie for control of the party. IMO, Rush is, in fact, the voice of the conservative wing of the Republican party. My response to those who point it out like it’s a red hot news flash is, “yeah—so?”

This is Chicago style thug politics with the obedient compliance of the MSM(the disinformation arm of the Democrat Party). Speaking the truth about the Democrat Party today is like speaking the truth about the National Socialist Workers Party in Germany during the Hitler era or speaking the truth about the Communist Party in the former Soviet Union. America does not have a free press. As in the former Soviet Union, the media performs no function other than being the propaganda arm of the party in power.

I’d say we’ve had enough of 0be already. Rush has been around for decades.

Mark Levin took Frum to the woodshed personally to his face on the air when Frum called his show to protest Levin’s harsh words for him. Frum joins the Scott McClellan crowd of Bush people who have weanied out and forgotten any principled philosophy.

My big complaint about Rush and others was their Bush worship. Bush has much to do with the public’s current desire for government action. Democrats did NOT win two elections being positive, it was being negative. But until they got Obama, they had no face and that suited them well.

I’ll believe in the “Fairness Doctrine” when it applies to Broadway.

Personally, I think we should all use this cover/picture to show that the Obama administration with its media allies are trying to implement censorship.

Picture’s worth a thousand words.
