            There's also IRONY101's common Beck response.. that GB's actions could be related to mental illness.

      No, Limpballs -- starting two wars of choice that cost $12 billion/month and trying to fund them with tax cuts for the rich is "squandering a trillion dollars on purpose" . . .

      At least Obama's trillion is being spent in the U.S. Bush's trillion was pi$$ed away in the sands of Iraq.

      One would have to be a complete idiot to think the economy was just fine until president Obama came along. He wasn't even in office when the bailouts started. He didn't have anything to do with the crazy behavior of the beloved private sector. But somehow, Limbaugh is set on convincing America that the current president is fully to blame for any whoas and worries that they may have. Rediculous

        Remember, on Nov 5, 2008, Hannity started calling the recession which had been going on for months, "The Obama Recession." These people will say anything.

            The secret is to look at history through Troglodyte colored glasses. Everything good is due to Republican policies and everything bad is due to Democratic policies. It doesn't matter which came first or how long ago it was, they always find a way to connect the dots to suit them.

              The true elite.

              Greeted with flowers and parades and the keys to gummit where ever they might grace the unwashed, who languish fitfully under progressive rule, with their shiny shiny presence.

        LIMBAUGH is nothing more than a paid propaganda spokesman for the far RIGHT. He will lie and twist the truth to further his fracked up agenda.

        ***Limbaugh Classic***

        nah, it's because he hates America. Guys who hate America are always getting elected president so they can fulfill their lifelong dream of destroying the country they hate. So goes the "logic" of a Limbaugh schtick.
