excerpt:"" One of the problems with trying to track the flood of wingnuttery emitted daily by Rush Limbaugh is that there's so much of it, and it's so ceaseless, that one becomes overwhelmed trying to keep up with it. But there's been a thread in his commentary this past week that's particularly dangerous, and it needs calling out. ""
I have yet to understand the following...
Rush is a racist and a bigot, he have shown that over the years, that is the reason he got fired from ESPN, that was the reason he was fried from T.V., this man have shown his disdain for the black race, and all of those who listen to his show knows what he is and who he is, a drug addict and a racist, instead of trying to pull the country together he and the republican are trying to destroy the country, those who sponsor his show should stop and think, sooner or later the public will stop buying their products.
If Rush is any more extreme, Bin Laden will think Rush is to extreme even from Laden.
Islamic Terrorist probably have picture of Rush on the their walks in their caves. They all can retire with Rush, Cheney, Coulter, Hannity systematicaly destroying the US.
Bin Laden want have to attack the UNITED STATES because the right wing radio talk will do that for him, they have so much hate for the president that they are willing to destroy the country with a smile and a smirk, this country have come a long way since the sixty and the young people don't believe all the lies that were told to them by their parents.
Isn't he starting to skirt treason? Maybe not crossed the line yet but he's getting close. Openly saying the military should oust the sitting president?
Does anyone know if treason is still punishable by firing squad?
Are you wanting to kill conservatives?
No, John is only asking about the punishment for 'traitors'...(those are people that commit treason btw)...
As to the question of firing squad...well a quick Google there are numerous articles...
I listen to Rush every day. He is brilliant and one of few who has the gonads to challenge democratic domination. He's right on, but ya'll need to listen a little more. He has NOTHING to do with the GOP, doesn't even like the GOP because they are far too liberal. He will never hold political office. Many of the lefties hate anyone with a dissenting opinion.
Bubba where have you been under a rock, the drug addict tried to step back from the GOP when McCain won the nominee for president but he did evrything in his power to help elect John McCain even though he new he was not ready for the job and Mrs Palin was not ready to become a heart beat from being president,
Lush Rimjob needs another 28 day jolt of rehab to sort of get reconnected with reality. His lack of opiates and an over abundance of lard and sugar from his 48 donut a day substitute addiction is making him unattractive even to his teabaggin' butt-buddy, Glenn Beck. Then you include Hannity and O"Rielly and you've got the daisy chain from hell.
ROFLMAO! Nice. That fat tub of lard is such a hypocrite it's too funny! He was coming down on drug addicts while all the while higher than a kite himself. What a POS that guy is! Can't wait until he dies!
What a POS that guy is! Can't wait until he dies!
Classy.
between this and the Glen Beck guest that called for an attack from bin laden, I am getting worried about this country.
We do our best to elect someone reasonable, who exibits a desire to care for our children and health and welfare, and the war mongers lose their minds. As much as i would like to shrug rush off, living in the south, I see his die hard, gun toting bible thumpers everywhere.
Its disturbing.
Maybe its time to go back to the sixties, get out our love beads, tie dye and have some sit ins for peace!
Rush Limbaugh is one of the only sensible americans on the airwaves. You guys listen to your own rhetoric too much.
Rush Limbaugh is one of the only sensible americans on the airwaves.
Thanks David for your refreshingly honest admission. We now know were to place you on that ape to man chart.
You guys listen to your own rhetoric too much.
So tell us all about your favorite Air America commentators. You listen daily of course.
There's a reason Lib's are afraid of Rush. The Truth hurts....
Afraid of Rush? Or laughing at his stupidity?
Can one person please direct to me where a Democrat and/or talk show host, etc, while under Bush, openly promoted or wished for his policies to fail, hoped for a terrorist attack, or suggest a coup of a sitting President.
Good answer Guy...
I don't know of any either...
On the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, just minutes before learning of the terrorist attacks on America, Democratic strategist James Carville was hoping for President Bush to fail, telling a group of Washington reporters: "I certainly hope he doesn't succeed."
In August 2006, a Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll asked the following of 900 registered voters:
"Regardless of how you voted in the presidential election, would you say you want President Bush to succeed or not?"
51 percent of Democrats and 34 percent of Independents didn't want President Bush to succeed...even though our nation was at war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
rto:
Remind me again why we went to Iraq? Remind me why over 3,000 people died on 9/11. Remind me why over 4,000 Americans have died in Iraq.
Remind me why our economy imploded. Remind me why the bottom fell out of the houseing market. Remind me how good Bush/Cheney kept us safe.
Then I will remind you Bush/Cheney LIED to us and total tried to destroy our country. Then I would remind you about Halliburton and KRB. I could post the disgusting things that were done in the name of the American people, but I doubt if you would even take a look as this stuff which is just common knowledge and can be easily found through google or Bing.
Then I would tell you - YES I did not want George W. Bush to succeed in what he did to us and our country.
Please check the history about 9/11 and the Iraq war before commenting. Then ask your question "Did we want Bush to succeed?"
Then YOU tell me you wanted Bush to Succeed.
"...Remind me again why we went to Iraq? Remind me why over 3,000 people died on 9/11. Remind me why over 4,000 Americans have died in Iraq..."

17 UN Resolutions over a two-year period.
Bush had the "permission" from both houses of the United States Congress - and the blessings from the world – to go to war. He went through the channels. There was nothing illegal.
"Oct 11, 2002 – "The Iraq War Resolution"
"The president is authorized to use the armed forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to:
(1) defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq, and
(2) enforce all relevant United Nation Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq."
The Senate voted 77-23 to authorize President Bush to attack Iraq if Saddam Hussein refuses to give up weapons of mass destruction (as required by the 17 U.N. resolutions.
The House approved an identical resolution, 296-133.
500 Tons of Uranium Yellowcake secretly moved from Iraq to Canada.
On July 7, 2008 the American Forces Press Service released a statement of the completion of a classified mission dubbed "Operation McCall" to transfer 500 metric tons of yellowcake at the request of the Iraq government from Tuwaitha Nuclear Research Center near Baghdad to Canada.
According to published reports including CBS news, the United States secretly moved huge stockpiles of yellowcake over a two week period, from Iraq to Canada, partly to keep it from falling into the hands of either terrorists or foreign governments such as Iran.
The operation was reported more than a year in the making and took three months to execute. It included carring 3,500 barrels of yellowcake by road from Baghdad, then flying them on 37 military flights to an atoll in the Indian Ocean, then carrying them aboard a US ship bound for Montreal. In all, it added up to more than 500 metric tons of material from Saddam Hussein's nuclear program.
According to truthorfiction.com: this is True...
"....Remind me why over 3,000 people died on 9/11...."
It all started - with a little history...
Mogadishu in '93 – on a UN humanitarian mission – our forces were drawing down from this mission when the now famed "Black Hawk Down" incident occurred. Eighteen members from our elite Delta Force and US Rangers died and eighty-four were wounded - in the most violent U.S. combat firefight since Vietnam.
And why was this important?
It was our second failed encounter with Islamic extremist.
Up to that point – this "incident" alone - would have been cause for a declaration for war. Yet – it was in Somalia – it was Africa – it was a basket case....so we went home.
The Khobar Towers attack in '96 - in Saudi Arabia was against our military barracks in this country. It was also against "the remnants" of our first involvement in region during the first Gulf War. This was the second attack against our military – in less than two years – but with the same mute Clinton response.
The Kenya embassy and Tanzania embassy bombings in '98 are the fourth and fifth attacks against the United States in five years. Embassies in any country – are considered the land and property of that country. And yet - zero response...
About now - Clinton did get a bit upset – so he sent a couple of cruise missiles into some empty tents in the middle of the desert.
And the 2000 USS Cole incident was the third attack directly against "our military" in six years. It was another military and military encounter with Qaeda. It was the Islamic army against our Navy. And this group came so close to sinking a US destroyer - with a skip.
And just because you don't have a "nation-state" as your adversary - doesn't mean you should not consider a declaration of war. Yet – Clinton never did...
There was no contemplation of any military action after the millennium plots – and there should have been. Clinton let this problem fester and grow – until we all woke on September 11, 2001.
And it was not just America in this war. There were the London and Madrid subway "incidents" - not to mention the Bali resort.
To think "this problem" was going to solve itself - or was just "go away" – is a false perception - diluted in magical security. And to neglect this problem is what I would consider – "dereliction of duty" - for any president.
During his 8 years in office – George Bush did his job – which was to protect the American people. And believe me - we were going to fight this war against Al-Qaeda somehow, someday and some place.....Bill Clinton made sure of it.
And as the msm tries to rewrites history and blur facts into oblivion - what historical truth will never be able to bury deep enough - is that on 9/11 - Clinton was driving the planes...
"....Remind me why our economy imploded. Remind me why the bottom fell out of the houseing market...."
New Agency Proposed to Oversee Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae
New York Times
By STEPHEN LABATON
Published: September 11, 2003
"The Bush administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago.
Under the plan, disclosed at a Congressional hearing today, a new agency would be created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored companies that are the two largest players in the mortgage lending industry.
Among the groups denouncing the proposal today were the National Association of Home Builders and Congressional Democrats who fear that tighter regulation of the companies could sharply reduce their commitment to financing low-income and affordable housing."
''These two entities — Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — are not facing any kind of financial crisis,'' said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. ''The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.''
Representative Melvin L. Watt, Democrat of North Carolina, agreed."
This proposal was passed in the House – then blocked by a Senate filibuster – originated from none other than the honorable Christopher J. Dodd – D-Conn.....
"....Then YOU tell me you wanted Bush to Succeed...."
Yes I did....
Nicely said rto, thank you for pointing out what alot of people are forgetting about the events leading up to the continuiation of the Gulf War. I refuse to call this the 2nd gulf war because we had been in a cease fire agreement since 1991.
Hi, Teresa. Boy what a can of worms! I don't listen to Rush, ever. I DO read what he says here on the Vine. This man has, obviously, slipped a cog. It DOES sound as though he is encouraging a military coup. Harm to the President, and fall of this Great Nation. A Nation, that I, (a Liberal) served many years in the Marines to defend. Some of that time in a very un-popular war called Viet Nam. A time, I might add, when this nation was nearly torn apart.
I'm always disappointed when the candidate I vote for isn't elected. But, I always support the Country. My loyalty has never swayed. When Bush announced his plan to go to Afghanistan, I was over-joyed. I hate war, but, this action was justified. But, then, all of a sudden, Iraq was to be the target. My heart sank. After that the fear tactics employed to do an end-run on our rights put fear into me. I saw a man who felt he was ordained to do as he pleased with his realm. For the good of his subjects.
I read in one of the comments that the Liberals wouldn't fight. I must disagree. Nearly all of the men I, proudly, fought with were and are still liberals. We are a tolerant bunch, we Liberals. We believe all have the same rights. Regardless of color, education, pedigree, and luck. We don't cotton to stacking the deck to get things our way or to keep things our way.
I'm not happy with much going on in Washington. Never have been. But it is the system we have. There were many questions in regards to the elections that put Bush into office. This recent election left no doubt as to the true wish of the people. We may not get all we were promised. But, to blame it on one man is rediculous. I see Obama doing a lot. Only 10% of the stimulus money has been spent. It was designed as a two year plan. I can hold out and see what happens.
I don't see a coup in our future. There are far too many sane thinking, loyal Americans in this Country to allow anything of the sort. But, I DO believe that the Limbaugh's comments need to be addressed. Not just by we, the little people. But by someone of authority. A republican would be nice. We already know it won't be Steele. He knuckled under pressure early on.
I know I'm rambling. I'm not very computer literate, so I don't cut and paste. But, many of the comments here were so irresponsible. Do these right wing folks really believe a coup in this country would regain them their former position? I think not. Rush would be no more. (I do feel Rush may see himself as the "New" father of our Country") Sitting in his little radio booth, dreaming of the perfect coup, where the insurrectionists come to him and bestow the power he feels he so deserves. The man would be hiding behind his mommy's skirt.
Since the recent election, I have read, thousands of articles, blogs, posts, comments from the right, claiming we are socialist. Nazis, Communists, Marxists etc. I have heard nothing but complaints as to how the President is handling today's problems. I have not read one alternative solution. Not one idea. Not one clue from the right as to their idea of which way we should go. Obama has, many times, stated he wishes for ALL to join him in solving these problems. But, all I see is the right saying no. Whining, Sobbing.
All I can say is Rush will never get a coup to occur. But, he may push that one weak-minded zealot over the edge to do something this country doesn't need. Of course, Rush would never own up to it being his doing. The man is a menace. He is a tragedy waiting to happen. It is the responsibility of the republican party to put a muzzle on this cur. He abuses the very rights I and many before and after me have fought, killed and died.
Sorry this is so long and scrambled. I don't draft any of this. Just start typing. Bottom line is I took an oath when I joined the Marines in '69. I still live by that oath. No coup is happening without a fight. In print, or in the street. It just ain't gonna happen.
Hi Dave, Thanks for your input. I think that you have made some very compelling points that we all can learn from. Our love and allegiance to our country should always be weighed against our disdain for others. The United States is what so many have fought and died for and any calls for an uprising or a coup or anything that harms are country should be minimized. The hate of others and their policies should always take a back seat to the United States and its people. This seems to be lost on many but the truth of the matter is that allegiance to our country is the norm for most people.
The useless pratter of Rush and those of his ilk is simply that . Most Americans recognize this even those that defend him. He speaks for the very extreme and they are energized by him because they think their extreme ideas become legitimate and mainstream ideas because they have heard Rush say it too. Most fringe elements of our society are in fact very literal in their thinking and figurative usage of language is beyond their realm. I think that is where the danger with Rush and those like him really is. i would wish that the Rushes of the world would attempt to recognize this and take a bit of responsibility for the messages they are sending to extremists.
You people that voted for Obama voted for a box with nothing inside. He is an empty suit, America's first Rockstar President. He has no freaking idea what he is doing and to bring about this policy of "change" he brings in all the same old Washington hacks.
Pelosi obviously lied about what she knew about the CIAs methods but she will have no committees investigating her. Safe and sound under the warm blanket of liberal America.
No taxes for Americans were the words of the Almighty Obama. Three words. Cap and Trade. Go find out just how you tax people without raising their income tax. The Magical Bailout won't pay for itself...YOU will.
America. Home of the Free and Land of the Sheep.
Since we take our Presidents these days from fantasy how about another fictional catch phrase "The Truth is out there..." That might have started in fiction but it's true. Ignore Hannity and Limbaugh and just go read for yourelves.
To hell with Democrats and Republicans.
Be your own Shepherd.
David 661352 if you were a true marine you would vote t let Rush say what he pleases since his freedom is that for which you stand as well as everyone elses. Limbaugh isn't calling for an armed coup. You people are nitwits if you believe that. What he and others like him ARE saying is you got what you asked for by electing someone we arent even sure is a citizen and bows to foreign kings. Obama is a Sheep in sheeps clothing that happens to talk "fancy". So fancy he has snowed millions of American TV watching voters.
"If Katie Couric likes it by God I do too!" Seriously..think for yourselves dont get caught up in the party BS. I dont like Bush, McCain, or Obama...its sad that in the last 3 elections we couldnt come up with better people than Gore, Bush, Kerry, Obama or McCain...extremely sad.
Romney would have been a wise choice I think..at least he has ran a business...
I know that's a tough comparison to "Community Organizer" (whatever that is) but hey it's a start!
The mocking of true patriots by faux patriots doesn't work anymore.
Hi dc,
The mocking of true patriots by faux patriots doesn't work anymore
I love that line. Short to the point and very powerful.
Guy Postin, Are you attempting to swift vote,Dave? Poor attempt and by the way knock it off, he is not the topic.
Your rights end when they infringe on another person's rights.
i.e. you can't yell 'fire' in a crowded theater just for fun, you can swing your arms wildly all day long if you wish, but the moment your arm connects with someone, your breaking the law.
You cannot decide which laws apply to you. Freedom of speech, and your other protected rights come with a responsibility to others. Since most people apply things to their own selfish needs, laws need to protect others from being harmed by your version of 'freedom'. I can't take out an ad in the newspaper suggesting hurting someone or doing something violent. I suppose I could sneak one by the editors, but it's likely I would be sued and/or arrested.
Rush is a domestic terrorist and should be watched carefully. How people like him can be allowed to use public media to attack the leader of this country is disgusting. He is a racist who is trying to bring our country down. Why wasn't he critical of other white Presidents the way he is critical of President Obama? Wake up America and don't let this disgraceful man bring prejudice and hate into America.
I DO vote to let people say what they think. But, to the point of irresponsibility? Rush could care less what happens to this country. He believes all will remain the same for him no matter what. He's pulling down his 50 mil a year. On your dime. Not mine. A true Marine has honor. Loyalty and BALLS. What does Rush have? A bunch of sour-grape eating whiners eating his garbage all day. He's laughing all the way to the bank. The man is a menace.
Dave:
Thank you for your service to me and mine. I feel the same way (as you will see in my posts). You are not alone:-)
All these conversations about Rush are making him wealthier and furthering his cause.
Capitalism at it's best.
Hi trom1, Talking about him is not supporting his bank account it is done to create awareness of what kind of charleton he is.
Teresa:
Too bad you don't have a list of his advertisers. It sure would hit his bank account if everyone pulled their support for his show. I heard Clear Channel is in trouble anyway. Wonder what happened to those 3,000 people that got let go from Rushbo's station right after he got that big a$$ contract. I wonder what their opinions are. It would be interesting.
DEBEKI, I will look around and see if I can find out. But I will not start listening to the entirety of his show that I can find out that way. I could not stand it. Yes CLear Channel communications is in real bad shape.
The people that lost their jobs? ...Rush is making millions so who cares about them anyway....... **sarcasm**
teresa: Don't blame you - I can bearly stomach watching quick clips of his slobbering. Sorry to even suggest - that would just be too much torture.
There is a page devoted to 'outing' Rush's sponsors. If you google 'rush limbaugh advertisers' you will find links to different pages (even one to become an advertiser on his show). I printed the list out and have forwarded it to many of my friends.
It isn't so much a boycott that is important, but contacting the advertisers yourself and letting them know WHY you are boycotting. Of course, I got some responses that were form letters, but at least I was able to tell these people how I feel. If they get enough bad press, maybe they will reconsider their advertising programs. You will be a little shocked at some of the advertisers listed.
Just do a search - it should come right up in the first 5 of your search results
'rush limbaugh advertisers'
There is something more powerful than the people boycotting the advertisers... It's the advertisers boycotting the people...
I sit and read all the liberals bashing of Rush and Fox News and I can only laugh. Rush has one of the top rated radio shows (fact). Fox News has the #1 rated news network (fact). MSNBC and all the other NBC networks rate near the bottom (fact). The reason for that is they never tell both sides of the story. They are never critical of some of the things Obama and his administration are doing to this country. How many campaign promises has Obama broken so far ? Quite a few ! And he is not being held accountable for it on these networks. Only Fox points it out. Our country is under a government take over. Obama and his administration have thrown the constitution out the window. Liberals want something for nothing. And the cap and trade will have far more reaching costs and impact than what they are telling us. Get ready for smog checks on your vehicles every two years. And if they fail the smog check, you will have to spend thousands of dollars to get a smog system put in your vehicle. Replacing your gas heaters in your homes. Commercial building owners that have boilers for heating that use gas or diesel for fuel. It will wipe out the coal miner industry and cost alot more jobs than it can ever create. America better wake up. Their health care idea has alot of explaining to do. It will not cover any weight loss or cosmetic surgeries. And if you are considered to old or your health is determined to be so bad that the costs are not justified, well, to bad. There is a reason that Canadians and British citizens came to this country for treatments. They could not get it where they were from. Once our so called government plan gets put in place, it is a matter of time before the private industry starts falling apart. That will lead to more uninsured and less coverage by the government plan.
The carnival side shows (freak shows) of the 1950's were "top rated" too until everybody got more civilized and realized they were a disgrace to decent thinking people and stopped them.
why dont we boycot limboughs advertisers
Good idea! Why don't you learn to spell, too.
The only conclusion everyone should come to is Rush is only into money (and drugs, of course) and the more outrageous his remarks, the more his bank account grows.
I know a couple of morons that listen to him and I also know their mental capacity. It's low... Real people (like those who voted out the republican swamp poop) don't listen to the sludge that this fool spits out every day.
Above and beyond that, if the FCC would pay a little more attention to what's allowed on the air, he'd be gone in a heart beat along with fox "news".
You and your kind would love to silence some of your fellow citizens, just because we have a difference of opinion. You, no doubt, even claim to defend our freedom of speech in this nation. You're either one who leans toward a communist form of government, or an idiot. You choose.
You fool, don't have an opinion. Talk about choices........how about educating yourself and becoming at least, lucid thinking.
You and your kind would love to silence some of your fellow citizens, just because we have a difference of opinion.
That's called "progressive thinking"... It can be summed up as: 'We're right and everyone else is stupid and should shut up forever'. Welcome to the New World Order.
'We're right and everyone else is stupid and should shut up forever'
Pot, the kettle would like a word or two with you...
At least when we watch Fox and listen to Rush, Hannity and the others, we find out what's really going on in the world today. Every time I pass through Madcow or Oldman, they're still talking about how they're going to get Bush, Cheney sent to prison for the waterboarding episode.
I don't like my news sugar coated with information about what Michelle wore today, or the stupid jokes that Obama cracks at our expense. Nothing about the world to day is funny and it's only getting worse.
Whatever happened to the news about the Iran election protestors? Haven't heard about that all week, due to Michael Jackson passing. Obama was quick to talk about Michael during his press conference, but said nothing about the fraud of an election in Iran. Now we have N. Korea getting ready to fire off more missles - haven't heard a word except for how we've got to pass healthcare reform and cap and tax bills NOW. Yea, has the stimulus worked for you yet?
This president is a fraud. If he were white and a republican, I would be saying and feeling the same thing. I don't care what party you are from, this government is ruining America and they all need to be voted out while we have a chance to save whatever is left.
If they are voted back and times get worse, you only have yourselves to blame - not Bush, not Obama, no one but the people who vote for them. Remember that when you're out of a job, have no home, your kids are hungry and you have government healthcare and your husband, wife or child is dying because they can't get treated fast enough.
If Obama and his administration would just hold off on these special interests of theirs and let the economy heal first, we'd be more supportive of him. But, to cram all this down our throats on a daily basis, is way too much to handle.
Our top priority right now should be our safety because we have nutjobs all over the world who want to kill us. Unfortunately, Obama is making healthcare and cap and tax the top priority.
We will ALL suffer in the end together. And I don't think that's the change we had in mind.
He must be on his Oxycodone the Oxy moron!!!
He's a multi-millionaire, nationally syndicated talk show host and household name. You're typing one-liners on Newsvine for free, with me. Who's the moron?
Watch it David-1091322. this stuff is unnecessary:
You're either one who leans toward a communist form of government, or an idiot. You choose. COH violation I will delete if it happens again.
Who's the moron?
Well Folks, the liberal speech police has issued me a warning ticket. My violations, you ask? I used the words: idiot and moron. I direct you attention below, to excepts copied and pasted from this seed:
Afraid of Rush? Or laughing at his stupidity?
Rush is a racist and a bigot,
gun toting bible thumpers
I must assume from my warning, that on this seed it is permissable to call someone "stupid", "racist", "a bigot", or condemn their religion and knowledge of their Constitutional rights.
david--as long as you hate on rush and conservatives it is ok, but shhh don't say anything about the stupidity of the liberals or democrats, that is definately a violation...LOL
Katlin, The lol part is your assumption of where it is david erred. His comment is directed at another commenter. That is where the violation is. Now take a moment to refresh yourself on the COH, won't you? It might serve you well because everyone needs a little reminder now and then.
David, is Rush a member of Newsvine? I haven't seen him here, so I guess it's not a COH violation to criticize him for his idiotic statements. It is, however, a violation to continually attack fellow Vine members like the way you're doing.
Democrats bashed the Bush/Cheney administration for eight years. Now, conservatives are voicing concerns about the socialists in Washington and ya'll are going ape (no pun intended, lol).
Here's you a newsflash. Conservatives are never going to warm up to the idea of your dreams of a socialist state. We will defend our freedoms with whatever means are needed.
I'm with you David!
So David:
What freedoms have you lost under President Obama? I know Bush screwed over the Constitution of the United States. He called it "that damn piece of paper".
So what freedoms have you lost under President Obama?
Free Iran! yells a small inconsequential "voice". Thousands upon thousands of small insignificant "voices" are screaming their righteous indignation at their hardline dictators that run their country. They use their small "voice" in the hope that larger "voices" of more consequence will join them. "Voices" like the USA. But the USA seems to have lost its "voice", our leaders have larengitis when it comes to this issue. That is a sad truth. When did the USA decide to let other country's lead the free world, countries like the UK, and the entire EU have taken a stand against Iran, even small African countries have said enough is enough. Sadly the US has no "voice" on this issue. Why do I think it is so important to have a "voice" on this issue? First and selfishly, because if we helped to free Iran then it would be the largest blow to date against terrorism. Iran's hardline muslim clerics are the real leaders of the enemy that wants to destroy us. They use their countries oil money to fund Hamas, Hezzbollah, and even Al Queida! Where do you think they get the money for guns and bombs to kill us? All those attacks in Iraq...thats Iran. When Iran is free and friendly to the US all that stops! Second, we are Americans we have always had a "voice", ours has always been loudest in the pursuit of freedom and happiness. Other people find their "voice" because of us. I think God intended it to be that way. Finnally I say Remember Neda!! Remember a beautiful young girl who found her "voice" and was murdered for it! She was murdered by her own government for finding her "voice". The sad irony here, is that in Farsi Neda means "voice". So I call on the people of America to be Americans, and find your "voice". Find your "voice" and write your congressman write the news media; flood them with so many "voices" that the cacophony of sound overwhelms them and drives them to action. Find your "voice" and use it now,.....while you still have one! And above all else Remeber Neda!!!!!
Q
Limbaugh and Co. has been trying to whip up a "Military, Civilian and any other type of coupe against Barack Obama since he took office !
This is nothing new. Limbaugh and all the GOP Conservatives have used and will use anything they can to get Barak Obama out of the White-House! Yet, they don't have anything substantive to offer the American people, other than their constant: (No, I will not cooperate, attitude, or they hold a lock on family values) !
And the Healthcare issue is another point that the GOP doesn't have anything to help anyone with. Yet, they jump on Obama if he sneezes or swat a fly! They are really pathetic !
This President is leading the US into socialism, and I for one do not want to be a socialist. What happened to his statement that he wants transparentcy, all he has done so far is eliminate the Republicans from voicing their concerns and ideas, and this Congress is shoving all this socialist stuff down our throats and passing it all without any input from the tax payers. This is not right, this President and his Congress does not listen to what the tax payers are saying or want. It's time that we stand up for our rights.
Are you kidding me? All I read on the vine and most other blogs are constant GOP rants and whining about President Obama. I sometimes wish the president could eliminate the screaming and name-calling and ranting and raving that are constant accompaniments to my time on NV, but that would be censorship. in 2006 and again in 2008 when the GOP was ousted from government. That is, however, only true if you accept that Democrats are taxpayers too, which you probably don't. The people spoke, the right lost and are now having a prolonged tantrum. Grow up and help solve the problems we face, please.
That is, however, only true if you accept that Democrats are taxpayers too, which you probably don't.
I'm definitely willing to bet there are many more Obama voters that DON'T pay taxes, vs those that voted for republican.
Kai, Bet you would be wrong. Provide the facts.
Kai, some people are apolitical, kind of like being asexual, drop the argument about who pays taxes because it is a land slide hanging on a towering mountain, it makes no difference if they are a democrat or a republican, capitalist crooks don't like to pay taxes and they use Lawyers to find loop holes. The people that steal money from everyone else, like Madoff are apolitical, they only care about themselves. I will point out that conservatives tend to be much more sympathetic to tax fraud, some crooks use reverse psychology and say that they are a democrat hoping to divert prying eyes.
Limbaugh & Co., have been whipping up a Military, Civilian and any other kind of coupe that they can against Barack Obama since he took office as President in November, 2008. That's no big breaking news to anyone !
