Just the headline
BTW...I "...don't find fault with everything Bush does." I believe he's an honorable man who tends to listen to politico advisor folks who betray principle in exchange for short-term polling gains. Anything I can do to short-circuit that mindset is an admirable accomplishment, IMO.
FReegards...MUD
And how long did it take you to read it?
Did you really read it?
It used to be that I couldn't wait until Rush was on every day now I don't care at all if I even hear his show at all anymore...
I just bought a whole bunch of new CDs... I guess I'll start taking them in to work more often...

And in less then 17 months too.
Now tell me, how has the war on terrorism, gotten too big for its britches, for you that is? Can't wait to hear this explanation.
Just watch these threads. And watch the first posters. Talk about knee jerk.
How's that for starters?
Any why would benefits be increased? Because of greater incentives for those moving from welfare checks to work...
Ronald Reagan would not have said, "You are either with us, or with the terrorists!" (which is a HUGE ultimatum), and then, several months later, be kissing the fat A$$ of the Saudi Princes, whom he had over to his house, and who funded and continue to fund al Quaeda, and who organized 9/11.
That's just ONE thing.
Ponder that.
Yep, Karl Rove is at the root of much of our current discontent with the President. No doubt about it.
Cheer leaders only draw an audience is they wear very very short skirts and kick their legs up a lot. Rush looks terrible in short skirts and can't even wiggle his tu tu.
Rush does tell the truth about his profession He says he is an entertainer and he is. The competition is getting a lot tougher. Controversy makes talk radio. Rush is well aware of that.
We will know Rush's ratings are really bad when he has Hillary on to talk about her run for the presidency.
Truth or not, Rush just alienated a good portion of his audience. By equating the usual soccer mom 'liberal' to conservatives and Republicans may be harsh, and may even be true in some cases, but this to me shows that Rush has become all show and no substance. Didn't Rush once say never to trash your own? He used to be able to see beyond the surface. Maybe we are seeing the real Rush. Heck, maybe we are seeing the real Dubya. And while I haven't agreed with the President on some issues, I know I've disagreed more with Rush.
I hate to say it people, but with all this in-fighting, we don't need to worry about the liberals in 02 or 04. We need to worry about each other. United we stand, divded we fall- and the Dems are loving every single minute of it. I guess the only good that could possibly come from all this is that with a common enemy, we'll all unite together once again- just like we did on Nov. 7th, 2000 and Sept. 11th, 2001.
One can only dream...
