You have to wonder if Obama is just trying to lay a foundation for not being a hypocrite when he tries to serve beyond 2016. I wouldn't be at all surprised if in the next number of years there is a move on the 22nd Amendment, which term limits the President of the United States. He may not do it that way, he may not openly try to change the Constitution. But there might be this movement in the country from his cult-like followers to support the notion that a democratically-elected leader who is loved and adored has carte blanc once elected. Just serve as long as he wants because the people demand it, because the people want it, because the people love it.

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh.
You want to be a sarcastic jackball? Fine by me. Doesn’t change the fact that you need lithium, and in large quantities. All you “takeover” types do, to ease the paranoia.
In every thread I have read on this subject I have detected more outrage than normal. Is it that you don’t want to believe it or you don’t think Obama is capable of doing such a thing?
Hey folks: this isn’t just any ‘civilian’ spouting off like tin-foilers and truthers often do. This is Rush Limbaugh, the de facto head of the conservative movement in America. And Rush is not chopped liver. He is right 99.1% of the time in his opinions.
Before you think he is a lunatic you better listen closely to what he is saying and then afterwards reflect on the 20 years Rush has been on the air; has Rush ever led you astray in a huge way? Of all the conservative messengers, Rush Limbaugh is the last one you should want to shoot.
You must have me mistaken with some of the others that I was responding to.
Believe me, 0bama will try to do it. Rush? I can't believe it when I read people denigrating Rush like some do.
Rush is ahead of the curve. Period. Rush has done more for the conservative movement that anyone in the past 50 years except for Ronald Reagan.
So rip on those other slugs that rail on Rush. I have gotten into more than one 'fight' defending Rush on FR.
