It is not convincing but it is convincing many people?????
Will someone explain that???
Your was just the first reply that I came across as I read during commercial break. The media played a sound bite of the Secretary of State blaming the spending on Bush. At post #64 I found the answer so as to clarify, she was a United States Senator for New York from 2001 to 2009. And now the answer for post #64, Bush Derangement Syndrome.
Thanks, Kertretarded. The “establishment” Delaware GOP is a perfect example of the “Ruling Class,” written about in the “American Spectator” and referred to a lot by Rush.
Done. After twenty one years of EIB, this listener has arrived. Hanging it up, can’t listen to anymore talk. Just done with the endless political drama. He is my phinal phlush Rush.
Pardon me for barging in here, but I just heard Rush mention a book that I have been trying to find. I don’t know how to spell the author’s name...sounds like Serazin. The book is about immigration of Muslims in Germany and how they are dragging the country down.
If someone could help me out with the title and author’s name, I would appreciate it a lot.
Merrit Island caller sounds like a limosine liberal.
I say seminar homosexual caller.
Hyphenated Liberals are Liberaltarins.
Go suck a tailpipe jerk.
seminar caller.
just a question of whether a RINO plant, homosexual, or democrat.
Obviously lied to pass the screener by using Merit Island address.
Had to find this thread. Just listening to Rush. I was not completely on board with Rush speaking with the gentlemen upset about him/caller a half conservative. Rush sounded like he was stumped. Not good at all. A perfect time for him to explain what a social conservative means to the party and how it CAN be an issue in a democracy. It is very important.
Oh well, had to vent. sorry. Have a nice day.
I think they need to keep the bye week too, but 18 game season has to happen.
TOTUS was saying nothing important less than a mile from where I’m at now, what a POS!!
FFL draft #1 tonight, #2 tomorrow ....
Snerdly sleeping on the job.
Rush doesn’t hear so many things these people say.
Let me help the caller. You are a hyphenated liberal.
Top of the hour news:
Obama - “My HOPE was that the crisis would cause both parties to work together to blah, blah, blah...It didn’t work out that way.”
Hey Obama, YOUR PARTY COULD RUN ANYTHING IT WANTED TO THROUGH CONGRESS and the country is in a WORSE POSITION 18 months after you started your “hope and change”.
That's a hard one to pick up over AM radio...
Germany Does Itself In
Thilo Sarrazin
from Amazon.de via Seamonkey translation —
Description
Thilo Sarrazin describes his profound experience in politics and administration, the consequences arising problematic for Germany’s future from a combination of falling birth rates, immigration and a growing underclass.
He does not want to accept that Germany is not only older and smaller, but more stupid and more dependent on government payments. Sarrazin close look at his analysis protects no one.
It shows, how will we undermine the foundations of our prosperity and thereby set the social peace and a stable society at risk.
That this is so, why is this so and what you can do about it, this is the book.
I just posted the below on FreeRepublic’s Blogger’s section. also Facebook....got an answer from Christine’s campaign. They are all delighted.
I happen to know Christine O’Donnell. Have known her since 2005. She’s not my BFF but I’ve had occasion to talk to her one on one, I’ve criticized her from time to time. But no mistake, she is a woman who has my admiration.
It’s almost been a hurting thing to listen to the attacks on her character by the Blue Blood Ruling Class Republicans in this state, including mighty Mike Castle, her opponent who voted FOR Cap and Trade and that awful DISCLOSE act, voting with the liberals most of the time but calling himself a Republican, I don’t know why.
Christine has had some financial issues in her life, as if this is anything new under the sun. We are all not Mike Castles or Joe Bidens who of course spend hours tracking their financial receipts and fret about money.
But the Delaware Blue Blood Ruling Class have deemed her unworthy of being a Senator because of...well because she’s an ordinary person like most of us who’s had to struggle at times. Christine WAS nominated by this same Delaware Blue Blood Ruling Class to run against Joe Biden in 2008. They didn’t care about her past financial issues then as they didn’t think anybody could beat Joe Biden.
Christine did not beat Joe Biden but she did okay. THIS year, now that Christine dares to challenge mighty Mike Castle, a Republican in name only who voted FOR Cap and Tax and was only one of two Republicans in the House to vote for that awful DISCLOSE act, the same folks who nominated her in 2008 are out calling her a nut, a wreck and her supporters are “pathetic”.
I can’t stand the lot of the hypocrites all beating on this poor woman who what? Took a long time to pay off her college loans, had some wrestles with the IRS, other financial stuff, all settled now and water under the bridge. Where in the constitution does it say that if you’ve had financial problems in your life you can’t be senator? Besides, does anybody think that Mike Castle or Joe Biden spends hours everyday categorizing their receipts, fretting over their money?
I can forgive Biden and Castle beating up on a young woman seeking a public office, how dare she...the audacity!! They at least get something out of it. I will never forgive the simpletons who jumped on the band wagon to beat on this woman and I vow on all within me that let this election get over and I will rebuild this state’s Republican party with my bare hands if need be, throwing out those entrenched Blue Blood hyenas with all my strength.
Mark Levin’s been on O’Donnell’s side, last night Sarah Palin came out with a quick tweet in support of O’Donnell though Palin has not officially endorsed Christine. I prayed that maybe Rush Limbaugh would give her a nod.
Today Rush launched into a lecture to those Blue Blood nothing burgers that leaves me in tears with his passion and truth.
WHAT IF WE ALL HAD TO SUFFER MOCKERY LIKE CHRISTINE ALL BECAUSE WE DARED TO DREAM OF A CHANCE AT A PUBLIC LAWFULLY ELECTED OFFICE AS IS OUR AMERICAN BIRTHRIGHT?
Who among us doesn’t have issues?
My husband once suffered a brain infection. It was such a horrendous affliction that he eventually went into seizures and in a coma. Due to a series of monetary mishaps and financial procrastination on my part, I found myself all alone, husband in a coma in upstate Delaware, without one single dime to my name.
There was money out there, tied into a former 401K of husbands, some stock, an old IRA. Husband’s paycheck was up in the air as he had used up all of his sick and vacation time and he did not have short term disability. I had recently had a heart bypass and was awaiting an SS disability decision by the powers that be.
I had to take a loan on my house just to survive.
When husband awoke from coma he kept worrying about some bills on his desk. We had an electronic bank account, like most folks today I suppose. HE paid his bills and I paid mine. There had been a large balance in the account from funds for the sale of our old Merryland home. I’m not trying to make excuses, I am an accountant by trade. I meant to get around to it.
Turns out husband had a bunch of credit card bills, small ones but alot of them. I too had run up a credit card but I thought I was the only one so hey, I really had plans to straighten out our finances, really I did.
It’s been two years since then. I had to methodically contact all the companies. I told about the brain infection, the money confusion. Interest rates were dropped or removed. We had thousands of dollars in medical bills as well. Husband and I both did get Social Security, I applied for property tax reductions....I got the 401K’s combined, the stock sold,created a reserve of money for these same such emergencies and it turned out okay.
God forbid I should ever run for Senator. PAT FISH HAD MAJOR CREDIT CARD ISSUES AND MEDICAL BILLS UNPAID UNTIL TURNED OVER TO COLLECTIONS, the headlines would read.
The Delaware Blue Blood Ruling Class Republicans would call me a nut, a woman who can’t handle her money, a wreck totally underserving of being a Senator, HOW DARE SHE EVEN THINK OF IT!
Whatever went on in Christine O’Donnell’s life, she too solved her financial problems. The college loans are paid, the IRS is happy....whatever happened, it’s been handled.
This is how Rush framed his vignette today. How many of us have no issues that could be blown into a way bigger deal than the ordinary stumbling blocks of life that they were?
In fact, an argument could be made that those of us who’ve been through it, silly us, might better serve the public, having been there and done that.
Does anyone think either Biden or Castle, both lifelong politicos, very rich in fact, ever sat all alone deep into a dark night and sobbed for funds not there, despairing over actions not taken for want of a team of flackies, anguished over how it all will end,frightened and shaking over an unknow future?
Thank you Rush. Thank you for not joining the Blue Blood Ruling Class Delaware GOP in their relentless beating of this Christian woman who dares to seek to represent me. She’s only asking for my vote. She’s not a nut.
Who knows, maybe Christine will win on 9/14/10...that would be wonderful.
But I will never forget those who called her names, said she’s a nut, mocked her mercilessly.
Because I know they would have done the same thing to me.
I’m pretty sure he has voice dictation software to help him hear but that can’t be %100 accurate. I think he misses some tiny hints he may be talking to a seminar caller.
I agree.
Fishtalk,
This post is even better than your earlier ones re Christine’s battle against Delaware’s ingrained “Blue Blood Ruling Class Republicans.” G*d bless you and your husband, Pat Fish. Your post is quite moving.
