Having listened to Rush everyday, he was "on fire" for the last six weeks.

Rush wasn't listened to by a lot of conservatives either. I think he is fighting for his influence today.

Hi Fudd Fan :)
It sure is. I hope this rhetoric is short lived. It's not helpful Even if some don't agree with all of Bush' policies, we need to be behind our Commander and Chief. God Bless President Bush. It's been one extreme challenge to the next.

Why should Rush help the Rats by criticizing our side?? No one in their right mind would do that.

The election is over and as a conservative first, it is time to engage in 'conservative crackdown' mode and get back to our roots.

Then why does Rush wait until now to say something? Get rid of the RINO scum in the primaries- that was months ago.

I'm disappointed in how Rush is piling on President Bush. This isn't the Rush I'm familiar with, the one who is always skeptical of the conventional wisdom. So far today, his analysis has been utterly conventional. "Conservatism" didn't lose--- "Republicanism" did? Then how does he explain Ken Blackwell and Rick Santorum getting crushed? Does he really think it was the medicare entitlement that brought President Bush down? And how does Rush extrapolate from the fact that President Bush says he's going to work with the Democrats that he's going to sell out his principles for higher approval numbers? Rush is a genius and he may be correct... But how can he be so certain on this count? The fact is, President Bush doesn't give a flying f******* whether he has a high approval rating except insofar as it advances the agenda he thinks will best help America.

ND, you're correct that Rush hasn't for conservatives as much as he could have. Arlen Spector backed him down on air, and from that moment on, Rush acted lukewarm about the Toomey challenge.

Besides which, Rush, because he doesn't listen to his competitors, probably doesn't know how much President Bush has been attacked by them from about 2004-on down.

Right now, with conservatism discombobulated and feeding on its own, it looks it's McCain or Giuliani representing the Repubs in 2008 vs HRC.

But things can change... If the Democrats can bring down the Republicans, the Republicans can bring down the Democrats.

Great points, but the media will keep spinning it as "Bush's fault" till at least 2008.

Regardless of what the new blue Congress does.

I know this has little to do with the immediate problems at hand, but it's bugging me, so I'm going to ask: What did Rush mean when he kept saying at the end of the 12:00 hour that they were going to "gyp" in to Bush's press conference if it started before :06 after the hour, when Rush's show usually comes back? I mean, I understand what he meant, but I've never heard the term before. Gyp? Gip? Jip?

That would be a tragedy.

I think that conservatives are hungry for a REAL candidate and will mobilize behind one - if we can get one!

Giuliani? I know he's a social liberal, but he's dead right on Islamofascism, and I think he'd be a great war-time leader. For me, that'll be the top (and nearly the only) criterion for 2008. If we don't stop the Muslim thugs, none of the rest will matter.

Anything stopping/placing time limits on the freedom of speech, particularly political speech,is unconstitutional.

Campaign finance was a travesty and I do not understand why Bush did not use his little veto pen. If he did not use it then, he won't use it now (unless its for something he, personally wants, like open borders and unchecked immigration)

We need a Coach Newt to orchestrate a contract with America II.

(or one like him)

No way in heck can a McCain or Guiliani do that.


I see Amnesty, I see tax hikes, I see race quotas, I see sex politics, I see a renewal of the assault weapons ban,


It would not surprise me if pelosi's solution to the military is to force the military to accept homosexuals.

Tha main problem is for one, Rush is preaching to the choir, and 2 the MSM preaches to the American people and unfortunately they listen. THAT is where we need to make changes. The MSM played a huge role in the dims win, they need to be stopped--how is another story.

Examples: Ingraham & Hannity:

The one thing I thought yesterday is how Hannity said for months, "Ladies and Gentlemen, we need to put these Democrats on the air so that more people can hear how wacko they sound." Wonder if he is thinking the same thing right now.

He could also be name Deputy Ambassador - which doesn't need Senate Approval - and draw a salary. Bush simply would not nominate an Ambassador.
