      Basically, keep doing the same without regard to logic or reason.

      yeaa rush because its worked so well so far. At least Rush doesnt beat around the bush trying to pretend he is just mad at the "corruption" or whatever beck says. Rush tells it straight - he just hates obama and any other dem as pres and he will rail on them til he dies of a heart attack

      I thought talk show radio was "just entertainment". Huh.

        "Hammering" is a pretty good word to use in describing Rush and the rest of the righty media. It doesn't conjure up any images of thinking, analysis or skill. Just the repetitive, mindless use of a blunt instrument.

        Yeah, someone told me Rush was just an entertainer the other day too. That no one really takes him seriously.

      It does become tiresome listening to so called "entertainers" calling on the masses to perform questionable political actions. I wonder what Mr. Limbaugh believes would be accomplished if every Republican leader went on talk radio and make untruthful, insulting statements about the President of the United States. This is bizarre and illogical.

      Hey.....Rush......you wingnuts are supported by corporate interests for just that purpose and in some ways that's worked out great for the moneymakers.........very bad for America.

      Creating an alternate reality of GOP failures has worked wonders until the net came along making it easier to publicize the lies you tell each day.

      Many people are angry in this nation, but not for the same reason. Some of us showed our anger against an manipulative administration by electing a new president and administration in the last election - that is the American Way.

      We were tired of failed policies that only allowed the wealthy to get wealthier and ended up punishing young families who got caught up in the housing market collapse. People are tired of the so called tax breaks for the wealthy and waiting for the money to trickle down - it never makes it to the people that need it.

        I agree with you totally. The people that need the money also need to work harder to get it. They shouldn't be waiting for money to trickle down. :)

          Preaching to the choir, rwpsycho. Most of us libruls saw through the Reaganomics scam the first time around.

          Unfortunately, about half of our electorate fell for it, and is still waiting for the trickle, and continuing to vote for the people behind the con game.

          I like your sense of responsibility, though, rare among right wingers to encourage their fellow conservatives to work harder. A lot of cons just sit around complaining about their taxes, while freeloading off of us Blue States.

          You heard him, wingnuts, kick it up a notch !

      No need to beg...

      Uhhh... does Rush ever watch the Sunday shows?

      The CCM (corporate controlled media) Sunday lineup (not to mention the daily lineup) is so lopsided with RNC talking points-spewing hammerers and/or Beltway butt-sniffers that only a liar or a moron would suggest otherwise.

      Hmmm... maybe Rush is both.

      OKAY all you GOP leaders out there...you have been on all the talkshows but now you are ordered to do it.

      Within two weeks, the Rushian will be spouting off that the GOP leadership is adhering to his suggestions.

      P.S. Can anyone explain to me what G.O.P Leadership means? Does it exist?
      Rush, hasn't Sister Sarah been on enough..don't you watch TV or listen to the radio. Turn up you hearing aid.

        Good question. With the advent of this new Obama-inspired conservative movement, I think we're either witnessing the rebirth of the GOP or its ultimate demise. In any cases, I don't see how the current crop of GOP leaders is going to last. We'll see what happens in November 2010. I know I'll be marking my ballot in the far right margin. :)

          "With the advent of this new Obama-inspired conservative movement, I think we're either witnessing the rebirth of the GOP or its ultimate demise."


          " . . . Obama-inspired conservative movement . . ."

          If you're referring to the teabaggers, I hate to break it to you, but that's not Obama-inspired, its corporate media/Glenn-Beck inspired.

          " . . . I think we're either witnessing the rebirth of the GOP or its ultimate demise.

          Given that people are touting Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck as GOP and/or "third party" front runners for 2012, I'd go with the latter . . .
