DOES OBAMA WANT TO LYNCH RUSH LIMBAUGH?
George Reisman's Blog on Economics ^ | January 28, 2009 | George Reisman, Ph.D

Limbaugh is a major thorn in the side of the Left. They need to remove him, because his criticisms serve to slow their advance and might even help to stop them in their tracks.

That’s why I’m for Limbaugh and I too hope Obama fails at every turn in his efforts to expand the powers of government.

My answer to the question “Does Obama Want to Lynch Rush Limbaugh?” is, no. He and the rest of the Left just want to drive Rush Limbaugh off the air.

Actually, as Limbaugh well knows, it’s really not necessary to hope for the failure of Obama’s socialistic policies themselves. If they are adopted, they will fail by virtue of their own nature. But it is perfectly reasonable to hope for the failure of Obama’s efforts to get his policies enacted and to hope that to the extent they are enacted their failure is recognized. This is what Limbaugh clearly meant.

Limbaugh is a major thorn in the side of the Left. They need to remove him, because his criticisms serve to slow their advance and might even help to stop them in their tracks.

I think its a situation that Republicans don’t have a leader who is in office so Limbaugh becomes the best target.

When the next Newt Gingrich emerges the attacks will likely shift.

Obama should get to Rush over our collective dead bodies. This is up there with gun control and abortion. There are LIMITS.

Liberals want talk radio shut down because that’s where the truth about Liberal lies and deceit is exposed. Liberals fear exposure and the truth more than anything and they will do everything to shut it down. Corrupt politicians want to take over this country and turn it into a dictatorship. No surprises there.

The answer is probably. But, being the pathological liar that he is, he wouldn't tell the truth about it anyway. Beware. Once Socialism gets a foothold in our country it will be very difficult to dismantle. The people who voted for Zero didn't vote for his Socialism. They voted for the moderate he portrayed himself as. The next elections are in 2010. That is a long time when Socialism is being shoved down our throats.

Rush and others will shed the light of day on these cockroaches and stop them in their tracks.

And make Rush a lot more money.

Obama is a Marxist Leninist.

Marxism has failed every time it has been attempted, but those failures are painful and prolonged.

Better that it fails early, before it does too much damage.

Yes, and it’s foundation is already poured, for sure. Social Security, the child support system, government-agency & departmental associations, unions, et al.

Will he be on? Why was he off all week? On Monday the guest host said he was taking a Superbowl Weekend break, and I don’t recall hearing anyone say when he would be back. It seemed like a day by day thing, but my impression is by no means definitive.

He was in Hawaii playing golf with his buddies (long planned vacation, he said). I think he said he was going to the pro-bowl and then he will be back Tuesday.

Well, OK, but I’m worried about him based on his appearance, which shows he has gained a shocking amount of weight. How can he play golf in this condition? Perhaps I shouldn’t say things like this, but that’s what I’m thinking.

Every attempt at a centralized, planned government is an absolute failure and ends up in gulags and systematic death.

Even Socialism (or Marxism-Lite) is a system whereas inactivity and mediocrity are the expressed norm so control rests entirely with the government as “Daddy”.

The only way for the US to survive is fighting Communism at every turn, and Rush will help us.

I guess that I haven't seen a picture of him in a while but based on the ditto-cam he doesn't seem that overweight to me.

But what do I know, you're the Doc :)
