“not a whimper is made on the EIB “Golden Mike.” Same with immigration, Harriet Myers, Dubai Ports, North Korea, ad nauseum.”
You don’t listen to Rush. He was all over those issues. You are in a snit because Rush is not as high on yer boy as you would like. No one has any obligation to “like” Juanito.
I listen to him primarily because he is talented and entertaining and not (for the reasons you apprently do) because I want him to do my thinking for me.
But Rush is plainly a Bushbot (probably because he gets WH invites) and that makes him somewhat hypocritical in my book. I never heard one whimper of criticism over what should have been standard "conservative issues" when, early in his presidency, Bush pushed:
o Elder care
o Kennedy No Child Left Behind.
o Monetta as Transportation Secretary
o Not one veto on spending bills
And there has been scant criticism since even as Bush, sadly, has been little better than his predecessor (Clinton) and only stands a head above Carter. As a wartime Commander in Chief, he couldn't fill his "Read My Lips" old man's shoes, nor shine Truman's, FDR's, Wilson's, McKinley's, Lincoln's, Polk's, Madison's or even Nixon's (because, had he not been forced to resign, we'd have won Vietnam). He's not fit to even scrape the bottom of Ronald Reagan's shoes.
No, pal, your president is a complete failure and you can count on me to be glad on seeing the sorry "Clymer" out of office come Jan. 20th, 2010 when we welcome John McCain to the White House to do the "man's job" that the frat boy couldn't do!
