Limbaugh on Obama's "snitch website": Where are "leftist civil libertarians" who opposed Bush's efforts "to catch terrorists"?

Your right. We should just let elected officals and talking head tell their listeners/voters that the Governments sole purpose in passing health care reform is to kill old people.

Also we should let the tell you that the government wont go its own goverment funded healthcare plan, despite the fact all government empolyees are already on and have been for decades, government funded health care.

Lastly telling people the government can not manage and administer healthcare in timely matter is ok right? nevermind that the last time I checked everybody, even those who oppose healthcare reform love the way medicare fuctions. There is no reason to tell people that medicare is government funded health care.


See all of those are examples of FACTUALLY WRONG things to be telling people, followed up by the truth that people should know.
That is what that wants to clamp down on, the FACTUALLY WRONG stuff.

No one is saying you cant disagree about healthcare reform. Maybe you dont think we can afford it, maybe you dont think it will cause any real reform. Maybe you think that the public option is too powerful. These things are all open to debate, and this is what the government wants to discuss with you. But everyone is instead talking about the first 3 examples on just straight untrue things. If we as a country can stop fixating on the untruth stuff we can actually adress your concerns about the debatable stuff.

Thats the point of the website, help the government clamp down on the factually untrue things so they can focus on and adress the debatable points and attempt to get you the best healthcare reform they can once they are actually able to talk to you about what you'd want in the bill, or even why you a legitimate reason not to want healtcare reform (IE something other then the government cant manage healthcare as they already are for their own employees, the Military, medicare and medicaid.)

Right wing definition of freedom of speech;
My right NEVER to be criticized for anything I say.

Quoting me correctly is just as much a violation of my civil libeties as spying on me without a warrant or torturing me.

Its gestapo tactics!

Good God, are you trying to be as stupid as you can possibly be? It must be hard work.

who opposed Bush's efforts "to catch terrorists"?

Those weren't programs weren't trying to "catch terrorists", they were to establish a fascist police state. Very little Bush did under the guise of fighting terrorism did anything to thwart terrorism. Instead, it was a power grab the far-right. The ruse of fear allowed them to do what they always wanted to do, bring their form of fascism to America.

Warrnatless -domestic- wiretapping IS an invasion of privacy, gwadsworth. They weren't searching for terrorists, they were searching for dissenters in America. That is simple police state fascism, and that's all it is. Remember Nixon? Cheney worked for Nixon. The Watergate break in? Not one bit different than warrantless domestic wiretapping. Both illegal surveillance designed to thwart opposing viewpoints. Both examples of government abusing it's power, and the trust of the American people.

President Obama is asking Americans to notify him of misinformation so that the public can have a clearer, more accurate picture of health coverage reform.

Bush suppressed intel opposed to his "Iraq's gots weapons of mass destruction" lie. He deliberately misled the American people into a war.

If you can't honestly see the difference in these two mindsets, then you are probably a conservative.

So, you're suggesting these paranoid fantasies are the result of some sort of organic damage, then? Perhaps he should be rounded up by the men in the white coats and given a CAT scan, then. "Leftist civil libertarians" is a non sequitur wrapped in a paradox. Of course, that just means it makes about as much real world sense as anything else that comes out of his mouth.

Nice try, fool. Care to tell us what Rush said about drug dealers and users before his ass was busted?

Ok first of all comparing the failures of universal healthcare and kids smoking pot is a huge reach. Pot is illegal. We have freedom of speech. If i disagree with obamas policies i have a right to voice them. Also who determines what is considered propoganda? If i say at a friends house that universal healthcare will bankrupt the US do i need to worry about secret service knocking down my door? Its non of his business.

"I remember when schoolkids were being encouraged to tell authorities if their parents were smoking pot in the privacy of their homes, and I don't recall the wingnuts being too upset about that."

Now that's what I call a nanny state. ;)

"I remember when schoolkids were being encouraged to tell authorities if their parents were smoking pot in the privacy of their homes, and I don't recall the wingnuts being too upset about that."

Made this very same point elsewhere, Col. Harlan Sanders. Not that it will penetrate the 'party uber alles' mentality on the right, of course.
