Limbaugh what you have is old news and this generation isn't reading it, we are glancing it seeing it to be useless and burning it daily. So stop trying to break the peace.
We the white people and we the black people understands that in this country divided we fall, but together we stand as one nation under God in Jesus Christ. And only you and the devil are fallen.

Glenn Beck with tax trouble
Of course, he'd have much less content for his show without declaring absolutes and various flavors of "them" to talk about.
The only ones who want that are the ones who are standing with their hands out saying "gimme some".
Oh, and Rush is a giant hypocrite. That you already know.
Oh, just trolling today?
"I'm fairly certain that Limbaugh is making his own money, and taking care of too many people on welfare."
Jeez.
Like the Clear Channel workers who were let go to pay Limpballs' $40 million salary?
Tax the hell out of people who made/make good money in order to give tax cuts, welfare, free cell phones, and subsidized health care to those who either don't pay taxes at all or living solely on government assistance.
With a recipe for success like that, its a wonder how we can possibly be in for a $1.5T deficit this year!
You're not going to get any argument from me on lower and middle class tax cuts. But I don't believe in getting a larger tax refund than what you actually paid into it.
I know you guys are obsessed with the Bush tax cuts...and to be honest, I could have cared less if he didn't give that out. I don't believe in a progressive tax system. I rather believe in a flat tax system, or a purely consumption based system. All have their goods and bads.
The last time we had a balanced budget and a decent economy, Clinton was president, and the top tax rate was 39%. That only affected the top 1% of Americans. The median wage in this country is right around $50,000 a year. Rush makes more than 600 'average' Americans. Having him pay more taxes than any one of them do is simply common sense.
If you don't believe in a progressive tax system, then you either don't understand economics, or you are obscenely wealthy and greedy.
Fair enough, JohnnyAppleseed. Tell you what, cut a $12 check out of every paycheck payable to the U.S. Treasury. They'll be glad to have it back, and you can have the satisfaction of knowing you're helping pay down the debt. Doing your share, you know? Somehow, I doubt this will happen, though.

That's because you're not thinking like a wingnut, shaggles. See, the ONLIEST thing that counts with Faux Cons is money. The more you have, the more you count. What they'd really like is to have a system of government where you walk in with your bank balance, and for every million dollars you have, you can cast a single vote. After all, extreme wealth is a sign of God's favor, right? And we want God's chosen deciding who should run the country. And, since they have all that money, they must be smarter and more moral and upright and nice than those scummy poor people.
Federal income taxes were not even enacted until 1861, in order to pay for the civil war. I guess the 100 years up until that point - you know, when the country was founded, and people were coming here in droves - people didn't live on the "I've got mine! Screw you" mentality right? Being forced to do something yourself doesn't make everyone else selfish...rather it forces you to have some personal responsibility.
One after another, the teabaggers came by, yelling and pointing in his face about how he didn't deserve something for nothing and to get a job.
Then one of the teabaggers yelled "I'll decide when you get my money" and proceeded to toss a dollar bill at him.
That's the teabagger mindset. Un-American. Selfish. Un-christian. Disgusting.
Ronald Reagan made more millionaires with his economic policies than other prior president in history. The downside, that almost nobody ever talks aobut? He also made more homeless people with those very same policies.
The wealthy never make it all on their own. None of them. Not one. No one has ever made it completely on their own in the history of man. We are, in fact, all in this together. 'I've got mine! Screw you!' is not American. It is selfishness bordering on Old World monarchism. Why not just say 'The peasants are revolting!' and be done with it. Or, 'Let them eat cake!'?
No, Seedling, it isn't -- just as it apparently wasn't theft when Dumbya took money from future generations to pay for the undeclared wars in Iraq and Afghanistan . . .
He sure has, raddave -- just as Limpballs has been self-appointed as the "tell Obama to shut up" czar . . .
Hey, SNL? Put that idea to good use. PLEASE!
You are not only ignorant, but you're also a liar. I'm African-American, but I pay little attention to what Al Sharpton says. If the African-Americans ever did what you suggest in your stupid post, many of us wouldn't be where we are today. Millions of AAs don't even think about blaming white people for our shortcomings/problems. We just keep working to advance ourselves. If we hadn't done this, we'd still be stuck where we were after the Civil War ended in 1865. What you and Limbaugh fail to understand is that we are a very resilient group of individuals.
The only people I see having a pity party on our behalf are people like you and Limbaugh who know little/nothing about any African-Americans. This is what p!sses me off about people like you. You're always running off at the mouth about something you know nothing about. You're also some of the laziest people on the planet. Instead of bothering to know what you're talking about, you take the easy route and cook up sh!t and pass it on. Until you're ready to commit yourself to backing up these BS assumptions you create and propagate with facts, you can STFU.
Unless you're Native American {see, no hyphen}, you're not American -- just the descendant of an illegal immigrant . . .
Just remember that the true Americans are people like me - Native Americans who were here long before your ancestors arrived.
My Hero cugagcmu805031 , and that goes for Kdork,Seahawk and Appleseed who come trolling on this like Orc extras in a "Lord of the Rings" sequel spouting Political and Racial BS they know nothing about or too ignorant to even too at both sides
