        Just as stupid, but less coherent. I think Rush is upset because Hostess Brands, the manufacturer of Twinkies, has filed for chapter 11.

          I've heard about this kind of behavior before--where something upsets you and, being unable to process the emotions and the source of that pain, you to lash out at unrelated people and situations in an attempt to try and understand and manage those emotions.

          I can only imagine the utter confusion Rush must be feeling right now, knowing that Hostess has filed for bankruptcy. And the anger and fear that confusion must be causing.

        Not only anti-colonial but this lie that a 3% tax increase on the wealthiest 1% is somehow a backbreaking socialist move to take from the deserving and give to the underserving,read; Afro-American in some plot hatched out at birth by Obama and his socialist cronies as a form of reparations. It's getting thicker,more blatant and incessant. It's going to get even nastier as the election season draws near.

          This is just more dog whistle pandering for the Racist Mouthbreathers who populate the Republican Base... essentially the cynical continuation of the Southern Strategy.

          The One-Percenters who own Republican Party Inc. know that Romneybot is a flawed candidate; he's a Flip-Flopping Corporate Raider who has no personality and believes in Magic Underwear. On the other hand, they also know that the Troglodytes will vote for any white man over Obama. With that in mind, they've dispatched Blimpy and his Hate Radio wannabes to keep that simmering racism stoked so the knuckledraggers will turn out in large numbers next November.

            You can be sure that we will soon see a whirlwind of wedge issue garbage being issued in this election. Yeah, Romney is not stellar on these issues, but they need to take attention away from his corporate raider past and the fact a piece of cardboard has more personality.

            I was a little disappointed to see Mittens hooked to the teleprompter last night. I was really looking forward to another bad presentation of America the Beautiful. It really is better than anything on SNL.

            When Gingrich called Obama a "food stamp president", that was dog whistling. What Limbaugh said was regular whistling; it should obvious to all that it is racism.

              And who cares what Rush says anyway. I am a life long Republican and Rush is thoroughly embarrassing to me. His racism is legion, his inability to assess any political situation rationally is top notch and he is just a weaselly bigot and anti feminine goof. The poor thing has plenty of money because some people actually listen to his swill but he has no class whatsoever. Obviously he is terribly lacking of any interpersonal skills. Hence the parade of wives.

          Yes, how is this anything but blatant and transparent race baiting?

          Was there anything that the president has done or said to bring in these kinds of accusations?

          This is what Rush is famous for. A disagreement with policy where the position held by establishment republicans would be wildly unpopular with poor and middle class rural whites is deflected and reconfigured into these absurd accusations of anti-white and anti-business or anti-Christian motivations.

          Where is his proof of any of this? It doesn't exist. It's just made up race baiting to divide and anger the American people against one another and their best interests.

          I am white and Republican and I totally disavow Rush at every opportunity I get. Rush is a first class racist, totally defies the values of Lincoln, and giggles that smug grin as he is doing so. Poor thing even assumes he is clever doing it. Sadly, there are many Republicans of the same bent and Lincoln is no doubt turning over in his grave if he knows what Rush and his cronies are saying. I know of no other person who is a toxic to our party as Rush is. 'Ditto-heads' is an apt description of Rush's followers.

        I don't get this whole line of thinking . . . our forefathers were ANTI-COLONIALISTS. They fought back against the colonizers. Just because they were the WHITE Europeans fighting back against WHITE Europeans, didn't make them any less "anti-colonialists." These idiots are banking on their groupies not understanding the concept. It just sounds EVIL.

        Rush continually confirms his drug use has addled his thinking process. H seems incapable of taking a set of facts and then drawing a sensible conclusion from those facts. Could be his long history of drug use or just plain old hateful partisanship. Not sure which would be worse for him. Hmmm, may be a health dose of both!

          These clowns do what they do for one reason and one reason only: money. I believe the phrase "sell your soul" is apropo. It's a lot easier to peddle in lies and false promises for profit than it is to deal in truth. There's no money to be made nor high political office to obtain when you deal in cold, hard truth. Jimmy Carter learned that lesson. Most Americans want to be lied to about how wonderful this country is and they don't want to sit down and accept that it will take time (a long time) and sacrifice from all of us to bring this economy back to life. It's getting kinda sad.

          Oh those pesky factual issues just get folks down, you know. Alaska is the only state I have ever lived in where Native Americans were given a fair shake. That was accomplished with the alaska Native LaNDS cLAIM LEGISLATION. Although the reason might be that the purchase agreement for Alaska was very clear about Native Lands being in tact at the time of the purchase. But I never expect poor racist Rush to own up to any of those facts.

              Agreed. At least with his hatred of the Clintons in the 90s he had some ammunition that held some water: Whitewater, Jones, Lewinsky, etc. And even though the whole Lewinsky thing was a blatant waste of taxpayer money, the fact that Clinton got a BJ in the Oval Office resonated with people on both sides of the aisle in some way. It was enough to keep Rush sounding somewhat reasonable in his petty hatred. But Rush has got NOTHING on Obama. Nothing. That's why they continually grasp at straws to knock him down. If they had anything to hammer him with, they would have found it by now.

              I smell a second term.

          I can guarantee you that most of the Fox/hate talk listeners have no idea that Bush gave GM and Chrysler the bailouts in December 2008 BEFORE Obama was inaugurated and paid out the first two installments from TARP. The final payment was left to Obama's discretion. It was needed, so it was granted . . . it saved two American industries and lots of jobs. The money was paid out of TARP funds which were appropriated by request and order of George W. Bush in October 2008.
