Just so Mr. Edsall knows: We’re still here a**hole, we plan to do more than stick around. Mark Levin has spelled it out very well.
Well, let's analyze the question.
What is Rush Limbaugh's country?
Hmmmm...America.
Then the answer is: plausibly.
Here in Indiana we elected a Tea Party backed governor and supermajority Republicans for state Senate and House. Also passed RTW in the last session.
So we’re not gone for sure.
“In broader terms, the political confrontation pits taxpayers, who now form the core of the center-right coalition, against tax consumers who form the core of the center-left. According to the Tax Policy Center, 46.4 percent of all tax filers had no federal income tax liability in 2011...”
“In effect, the 21st century version of class conflict sets the stage for an exceptionally bitter face-off between the left and the right in Congress.”
Yes, indeed.
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
-Proverbs 16:18
If the New York Times had eyes and hands, you could just imagine what they would doing right now at the thought that Rush Limbaugh’s nation was gone.
Smiling beedy eyes and hand wringing at the delicious thought that our Founding Father’s ideology and principles had been discredited for all time.
If Rush’s nation is gone, then another shall arise to replace it.
And in the new iteration, people like the New York Times staff will be hauled outside their building, lined up against a wall, and shot dead.
Some people don’t view the enemies of their nation with all the tolerance (as if) the Marxists always seem to show before think their time has arrived.
Afterwards, the Marxists do this very thing to all the good people left.
Marxists, we know what your policies always result in.
And once you prove it again here, I pity you knowing what people around this planet will do with you when they get their hands on you.
How many hundreds of millions will die this time, to prove this point yet again? Too bad it didn’t start with you.

I think that they don’t understand the true meaning of early 20th century class warfare in it’s practical application as conducted by its inventors.
Martins Latsis, the senior official in the CHEKA, (Extraordinary Commission, or the first Soviet political police) was also the theoretician of the Red Terror, stated that
Bolsheviks “are not carrying out war against individuals. We are exterminating the bourgeoisie as a class. We are not looking for evidence or witnesses to reveal deeds or words against the Soviet power. The first question we ask is to what class does he belong, what are his origins, upbringing, education or profession? These questions define the fate of the accused. This is the essence of the Red Terror.”
The nation isn’t gone. Rush’s influence isn’t what it used to be.
yeah, it is. It’s the Rebublican establishment who continues to give away everything - everything.
What happened to “we don’t want Romney, he wil lose b/c he is a republican liberal and they don’t win elections and we don’t even need them to do so”?
Thi IS the group who lined up at Chick fil a over free speech.
How influential was he when he was more influential? We put all of our faith and attention into one radio announcer?
No.
You didn’t read the article, did you?
If you are younger than about 35 (and certainly younger than 30) then Rush is likely to have little influence on you.
Young people very rarely listen to the radio anymore. Particularly not AM radio.
They live, sleep, breathe online on things like Twitter (where Obama was able to effectively target them with one-on-one messages that “your personal favorite pet stupid issue will be my #1 priority”)
People under 30 are even ambivalent as to whether we should continue living under capitalism or not. On traditional marriage. On just about everything.
Not that he isn’t still a force, but he is nowhere the force he used to be.
> ...Twitter (where Obama was able to effectively target them...
Mitt Romney does have presence on Twitter but for some reason didn’t use it as much as Team Obama.
Yep. They’re mostly tuned into their tunes and texts. Queer is fine. Politics is for old people. Socialism...whatever. Give Obama a chance, he’s cool. We’re all gonna get destroyed somehow anyway (from all the doom & gloom TV pieces).
It depends on whether the "moderate" group or the "extremist" group gained power. The Russian royal family was originally spared in 1917. George C. Scott played the film role of moderate revolutionary. He was to let the Czar and family go to England. The extremists then threw the moderates out and the Russian royal family were shot dead. Malea, females and child.
Excuse this ramble, but the aerial view of Thomas Friedman's ( NYT) woodland mansion and even another house has been often shown. One could not for one moment, imagine Mr Friedman being allowed to remain "the lord of all he surveys". First he goes to the small house with swimming pool, if he is lucky. If the other extremists get in, he gets a trailer and lumps it.
I have not encountered such folly for years of people shilling for a sharing of the wealth. This and supporting the demagogues that preach it. Then expect to live in a vacuum, mansions, luxury condos, country retreats etc.
Males, females and child
I agree. Redistribution is universal, until normalcy settles in, and then the party officials grant dispensations to the new privileged class, themselves.
I have a hard time with the concept of moderates here, because as I touched on earlier, folks will never follow the progression of these ideologies by choice.
As they fight the new system, more and more legislation is required, to force them to comply. And when they still don’t, physical force is required. The freedom the idiots think is their right today, to complain, dies up front. You don’t publicly complain under these systems, and if your neighbor is on the state payroll, you basically can’t open your yap other than to breath and eat. And as Socialist societies always evolve, breathing and eating also comes under control
