Rush may not be good for America but the ecoterrorist is a Genius (who was reading Al Gore's Earth in the Balance book).

Obama aides Rahm Emanuel and Robert Gibbs knew what they were doing when they declared Rush Limbaugh the leader of the Republican opposition. They were putting Republican politicians in a trap. Repudiating Limbaugh would mean alienating millions of conservatives and declaring Limbaugh's plainspoken conservatism — which many of those politicians share — outside the lines of the national debate. But neither could Republicans allow the insinuation that they take orders from a radio host stand. If voters got that impression, they would look weak. Worse, the polls show more people dislike Limbaugh than like him.
The Republicans escaped this trap by saying that the White House was talking about Limbaugh in order to avoid talking about Obama's failure to come up with a financial-rescue plan. But now one Limbaugh controversy has been replaced by another. Instead of squabbling with Democrats about him, Republicans are arguing with each other. The subject of the dispute: Does Limbaugh help spread conservatism among Americans — or turn them off from it? (Read "Criticizing Rush Limbaugh: Over the Line?")

Why do Republican’s always take the Democrat’s side? And then they wonder why they loose elections.
So, Time-Obama is admitting that Republicans “escaped the trap”?
Well, of course their are loose elections, and they are ours to lose.
In 5 years from now, there will no longer be a Time magazine...
Time is not. Conservative Nat. Rev. author Ponnuru is.
He keeps their feet to the fire.
He speaks loudly and unashamedly for conservatism.
He gives courage to millions of others to do the same.
He does not tow the party line.
He speaks to principles, not just politics.
He has fun doing all this.
