The RNC should make it mandatory for all elected Republicans to wear an EIB lapel pin so we can tell who the traitors are.

No real substance in Obama’s claims that the GOP shouldn’t listen to Limbaugh. Just bumper sticker partisan rhetoric. Limbaugh’s response however contained actual substance ie. the democrat power grab disguised as a trillion dollar ‘stimulus’ bill. Excellent response Rush!

Go Rush! The last man standing. And yes, you’re right. Bambi is afraid of Rush.

Obama is bringing a pea shooter to gun fight.

I understand your point, but I also understand Rush's. He is using the absurd to illustrate absurdity. The very Congress that gave Merril Lynch the money, with no strings attached, and no guidelines on how to use that money, is not crying that Merril Lynch spent money on redecorating.

Obama is in the process of playing Limbaugh for a ‘gag man’ to his Marxist initiatives, as a way to create deeper division in the nation to be exploited by the Rhambo style of politics. Limbaugh will serve Obammy’s purpose quite nicely since Rush is clueless to his own egomania. Within a year, Obamam will have Rush Limabugh on a nose ring to be yanked whenever Obammy needs a distraction.

Rush Limbaugh is single-handedly saving our nation from total socialist ruin. He completely nails Obama on these points. Why mention Rush at all? You didn't see Bush scream about Olbermann did we? Because Rush has completely exposed Obama for what he truly is and his agenda. This "stimulus" is all about securing Democrat power forever.

But watch what happens. As Rush said, there will be some Republicans who are going to denounce Rush and cooperate with Obama in the spirit of bipartisanship. We can't let this happen.

"If we don't get this done we (the Democrats) could lose seats and I could lose re-election.

But, I thought Obama said it wasn't about him, it was about us. Did he not really mean that?

I just sent this message to my senator. I suggest you do the same.

“Obama’s recent attack on Rush Limbaugh is nothing more than an abuse of an elected official’s power to limit a private citizen’s free speech. I hope you do not listen to the anointed one. I would be very please if you obtained and wore an EIB lapel pin to show your support for free speech and to allow voters to know you are not a traitor to the people who elected you.”

Yeah, that tactic worked out real well for the impeached one.

Did you read the article? Rush knows exactly what O is doing and calls him on it::

----------------"Put simply, I believe his stimulus is aimed at re-establishing "eternal" power for the Democrat Party rather than stimulating the economy because anyone with a brain knows this is NOT how you stimulate the economy. If I can be made to serve as a distraction, then there is that much less time debating the merits of this TRILLION dollar debacle. "-------------

The fact that Zero even brought up Rush’s name shows how stupid he is.

Exactly. Obama is a thinned skinned wimp worried more about his faux image than doing the job the brain dead idiots elected him to do.

If Obama is serious about marginalizing Limbaugh, he has at his disposal, sympathizers within the FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, eventually the Justice Dept., to set up Limbaugh in some legal strangle, black mail, or simply eliminate him...I hope Rush has the courage to see this and continue to ridicule Obama....I hope he has paid all of his taxes...

Creating division? Heck, Rush is not creating it; everybody knows it’s there, and that’s why Obama is trying to crush Rush, because Rush is the only prominent conservative left on our side of the division.

Obama is dumb as the day is long, and his irritability and fragile mental state will probably get him into trouble before long. But that still doesn’t get at the people behind him - Axelrod, Ayers and Rahm - unless he has a complete breakdown and has to be carried out of the WH tied to a stretcher. But I think they’ll give him drugs before he gets that far.

However, the good thing about Rush is that he’s actually smart and informed. He knows who these people are, he has read Alinsky, and he is going to be standing for a long time, unless they silence him.

Bambi and the people behind him know how dangerous Rush is. They couldn’t buy him with a dinner and a pat on the back, as they did with the rest of the “conservative press,” so watch for the pressure tactics to start. Well, maybe they already have.
