      Nah, the Republican branch of the S.Ct. pretty much assured that capitalism will be preserved ad infinitum . Not to worry, Rush.

      The financial collapse was obama's fault? I mean that is why we have 10 percent unemployment right now. And apparently it is obama's fault so does rush want to explain how obama himself led to the financial collapse and great recession being in office for 12 months of a recession that actually began well before obama even took office. Don't both providing any evidence for your bogus theories rush because they people that believe you, dont need proof and the people that need proof would never believe you anyway. Rush is now defending the banks to his audience consisting im sure partially of teabaggers. How can they not see right through rush's distortions? I mean i know some americans are really, really stupid but occassionally i like to give people some credit. i hope the teabaggers turned rush off at this point. I feel like the hardcore left and the hardcore right (those who are not deluded) are both happy to see obama bring his fight on wallstreet. I know libertarians who actually have a brain like ron paul would like to end the too big too fail and overhaul the fed and other regulatory agencies. I would never defend a conservative position but i do see the appeal of guys like paul. I would hope some teabaggers would look at his response to this (instead of rush and beck) and follow him as I believe i often look at the responses of those of grayson, weiner, sanders, feingold and other liberal and progressive leaders in congress in order to form my own opinion of certain issues that are difficult to interpret before I look to those of maddow and stewart for their personal response. I hope some of the brighter conservatives would look to the brighter politicians who share their beliefs before blindly following limbaugh;s distortions.

        Because Obama is the president now and everything became his fault on Jan. 20, 2009, even the Great Depression is his fault. Of course he gets none of the credit for anything that happened prior to him, just the blame.

        Ah, the mindless life of a ditto head. You don't have to think for yourself, you don't have to use facts because you exist in a fantasy world and you're never held accoutable because like Rush you never respond to really tough questions.
        I am ammused when they try to blog with people who at least make an attempt to get the facts right.

      Well, since Rush boys definition of capitalism is to rape and pillage until no one is left standing except the rich I hope he does kill it.
      But then since Rush has no other skills except as a: (I'll use Bennett's post to save time)
      "Fear monger
      hate monger
      race baiter
      homophobe
      sexist
      racist"
      (I'll add one more) and out right cowardly liar!
      He'd be on the street without this gig.
      Not to mention his network had to dump 3,200 jobs to support his bloated salary.
      If there is a hell Rush will have a very special place!

      And I thought Obama ran for president so he could make sweet love to Beck's wife.

      Really, Limpy?

      What was the amount of the stimulus package he signed to aid that capitalist system, again?

      Limpballs, I'm not sure whether you need to up or decrease your meds . . .
