Obama is bringing a pea shooter to gun fight.

That is dangerously dismissive.

Of course money is fungible, so who’s to say it was an expenditure they made with TARP or non-TARP money. But there is a difference between Merrill’s spending the money on their offices and the money being loaned as, as the loan would be on a fractional reserve system and thus more money would enter the economy via that means.

Limbaugh will serve Obammy’s purpose quite nicely since Rush is clueless to his own egomania....

Aren’t you confusing Limbaugh with the likes of Savage? Rush recognizes and acknowledges his ego. Savage and his ego are inseparable, insufferable, and a textbook example of ego-centric mania as evidenced by Savage’s need to remind averyone that hasn’t already heard of his PhD. in what? Nutrition.

Rush will continue to run rings around Obama and the weeks ahead will prove that intellect trumps liberals every time it’s applied.

I don’t think Rush was attempting to justify ML’s expenditure of TARP funds. I think he was pointing out the absurdity of Obama’s anger about it under the circumstances that he mentioned.

No, it’s as if Rush is armed with a Davey Crockett.

“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

And, the MSM is willing to play along. Ask Sarah.


That is essentially what I was going to post. GOOD job...

This has been their M.O., and they have managed to ostracize BJ Clinton, G Ferraro, and Palin along he way.

You can’t just watch ABC, CBS, PMS, NBC, The View, Rachel Maddow, Kieth Olbermann and any of the late night talk show hosts and get things done either...

Obama is ruling by decree...

So let it be written, So let it be done.

Perhaps you didn’t read Rush’s comments about Obama trying to use him as a distraction.

Rush knows exactly what Obama is attempting.

The Republicans do have a plan. They brought it to the meeting with Zero. His response was that he won and that trumps their plan. The Repubs have got to make public all the crazy things in the Stimulus Bill like the millions to be spent on contraceptives. I think that would help a great deal to kill the bill!

You are totally missing the point. I would never doubt Rush is more intelligent than Obammy. The focus is not on intellects in opposition, the focus is upon masses of people to be manipulated. While Rush is exercising his intellect--to massage his own ego, Obama will be issuing statements in various fifth column outlets which appeal tot eh emotional reaction of his sycophancy. While Rush is focusing on trying to explain a complex issue, Obama will have his minions appealing to the 'fate of workers in need of more power over the greedy industry bosses'. While Rush is explaining how expanding government never builds a free economy, Obama will play him for an elite as Obama expands the number of 'workers beholden to the government paycheck and benefits provided through taxpayer funding.'

Ask yourself, witht he average American, which will get their attention faster, an intellectual argument or a meal for an growling tummy? Does the abstract concept of Constitutional Republic mean more to a mother of three than a steady paycheck and routine for living in relative safety?

But, I thought Obama said it wasn't about him, it was about us. Did he not really mean that?

The ads have been on for years...

Yes, Rush knows because he is much smarter than Obama. BUT, does Rush know how to negate the ‘freezing’ and polarizing happening to readers at FR as we write these posts? I don’t thnk so, but we shall see in the coming weeks.

Ask yourself how many Obama voters Rush will convert as he points to the truth of Obama’s Alinskyesque methods? Obama voters haven't a clue, they just react to their worshipped leader's lead.

Well, I'll guarantee thare will be more Obama and non-Obama voters listening to Rush on Monday. The uninformed will have more of a chance at learning a thing or two.

The grass roots of the conservative party have done far more to bloody Obama (politically, that is), than the politicians in Congress.
Hannity - Reverend Wright
Rush - Operation Chaos
Joe the Plumber - Spread the wealth comments

It's time for people to start calling their congressmen/women and ask about Obama's statement: ""If we don't get this done we (the Democrats) could lose seats and I could lose re-election. But we can't let people like Rush Limbaugh stall this. That's how things don't get done in this town."

The economy is spiralling and Obama cares about his RE-ELECTION?

A recent addition to that list is Blago.

Rush is very vulnerable. Remember how quickly people abandoned him when his medical problem was exposed and his subsequent prescription drug abuse? If Limabaugh ever reached a point where he could not be used and could harm Obammy, Rhambo would see to it that another ‘incident’ took out Limbaugh’s creds. To the criminal democrat enterprise/Marxist wave, you don’t silence a man like Rush Limbaugh, you shame him if you cannot use him.

I don’t think Obama actually said that. I believe that was Rush paraphrasing/summarizing Obama’s remarks.
