ARE YOU FREAKIN’ KIDDING ME? This is what our “leaders” are talking about while we are losing thousands of jobs a day and watching our economy slide from recession to depression?
Now I am hearing the Obamamedia asking if Rush Limbaugh is the defacto head of the Republican Party; maybe he should be, they all have lost their courage, integrity and clear thinking, as evidenced by letting the stimulus bill go through with all of Obama’s PORK for ACORN and others.
Democrats Launch Petition Against Rush Limbaugh After Firing Back at Obama
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has launched an online petition to express outrage at conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh for saying he wanted President Obama to “fail.”
“Jobs, health care, our place in the world — the stakes for our nation are high and every American needs President Obama to succeed,” the petition reads. “Stand strong against Rush Limbaugh’s Attacks — sign our petition, telling Rush what you think of his attacks on President Obama.”
The petition comes after Obama warned Republicans on Capitol Hill Friday that they need to quit listening to Limbaugh if they want to get along with Democrats and the new administration.
“You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done,” he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.
One White House official confirmed the comment but said he was simply trying to make a larger point about bipartisan efforts.
On Monday, Limbaugh shot back at Obama, opening his show by saying, “I’m the man you should not be listening, according to President Obama.”
“I think [Obama] wants me to fail,” Limbaugh said. “He’s more frightened of me than he is of John Boehner, which doesn’t say much for our party.”
The remarks came after Limbaugh said last week on his radio show: “If I wanted Obama to succeed, I’d be happy the Republicans have laid down. I don’t want this to work. So I’m thinking of replying to this guy, say ‘okay, I’ll send you a response, but I don’t need 400 words, I need four: I hope he fails’.”
Is this what a bi-partisan campaign looks like?
This is what you call political payoff. Buchannon is dead right – Obama is making Limbaugh the defacto head of the GOP. Now could that possibly have anything to do with Rush’s Operation Chaos where he urged Republicans to register as Democrats for a day to defeat Hillary Clinton?
Obama gets to destroy the party leadership and the party itself (he knows Limbaugh will not succeed – all Dems need to do is bring up the drug abuse thing). Limbaugh gets to be BMOC for a couple years, and make beaucoup bucks at the same time. Who loses? The American people as we become a one-party nation.
Grail – I hate to break it to you but it has been a one party nation for about 25 years. These two parties are different sides of the same coin. That’s why I am an indie.
I can’t seem to post this on DCCC’s web site (hmmmm!) so I’ll post it here. This is what I wanted posted on THEIR comments page:
It’s pathetic that the DCCC has nothing better to do than to start a ridiculous petition against a free, private citizen who chose to exercise his right to FREE SPEECH. Don’t you guys have anything else to do–like tending to the BUSINESS of what is best for this country?!? Yet again you show your bias–and your ignorance–and your deceptive ways (revealing only partially what Mr. Limbaugh truly said). You confirm for me once again why this once Democrat CHANGED PARTIES back in the time of Ronald Reagan. Dems have gone SO far away from what this country was originally all about I doubt they will EVER find their ways back again.
I’m also fully aware that the Republican party isn’t perfect either and I’ve certainly had my issues with it–but it’s still a far-cry better than the Democratic Party.
I’m proud to stand with the 57 million Americans who voted AGAINST Obama. He’s quickly proving me so right to have done just that. Ugh. 2012, come quickly!!!
(Thanks for letting me post this here! 🙂 )
Diamond,
You’re not breaking anything to me – I already know that, but pretty soon Obama’s not even going to bother making it look like there’s 2 parties. He’s pushed the envelope enough to drop the facade and go straight for what he wants in short order.
BTW – I’ve been an Indie for years (probably about 20).
Angry,
If we don’t do something soon, by the time 2012 rolls around there won’t be elections anymore. Here or anywhere. One World Government is the goal, and we’re the last bastion of freedom (Canada will not stand if we fall). We’re letting it slide away because we don’t want to face the reality that’s coming up on us like a runaway Mack truck! But face it we must, before it runs us over and leaves us for dead.
Have I pretty much got that right, Visitors?
GG – I think they are in for a surprise.
Wow. I came across this site while trying to figure out what exactly the DCCC is. No help there, but boy howdy are you guys paranoid. What a sad way to live.
People have been convinced that big brother’s ready to pounce for decades at least (when was 1984 written?) but it has yet to happen.
You people should maybe get out more and stop being so terrified of…. well everything.
I just love that “you people” comment above, don’t you?
one more thing…over the course of the last 18 months I have come to the realization that there are “American Patriots” and then there are “Obamabots”…how’s that for you people?
Obots don’t care what Obama does or anyone else around Obama as long as it makes their leader look good or advance his causes.
Then there are the rest of us that are actually plugged into the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and won’t let either be trampled.
Yes, the “you people” comment is pretty par for the course. Sigh.
As far as the book “1984” goes, I recall reading it in school and thought, “That will never happen!” But much of it has already come true! So “paranoid?” LOL No, I don’t think so. “Informed and not hiding our heads in the old proverbial sand” is more like it!!!
You DON’T think “Big Brother” is (and will be more and more) watching?!? LOL Check out England my friend and see what’s happening across the Sea…
What DMonster does not realize is that the plan to collapse America was hatched by bankers 100 years ago, and it would have happened sooner but a majority of Republicans that believe in the constitution sent them back to the drawing board early in the last century.
When I read 1984 – I said, oh yeah – power begets more power…and when you have more money than God, what’s left?
