The Obama-Limbaugh Bipartisan Stimulus Plan of 2009

EIB Ntwork Broadcast ^ | Rush Limbaugh

[Loyal Buckeye]

It’s a good plan, except for all the liberal spending programs. ;-)

[libh8er]

The premise is it doesn’t have to get implemented. Just Zero’s mention that he is “considering” such a proposal would cause an uplift in the market.

[Cheerio]

Then why didn't bambi run openly on the ideas of big government spending and high taxes on everyone instead of his bogus "tax cut" language?

He couldn't run completely in the open because they knew they would not get enough votes. IMHO Obammy didn't win the election, McLame lost it. Why was McLame critical of the GOP in selected instances, like the party chair in NC when she ran an ad critical of Messiah's Pastor Wright, why did McLame go after the MC in OH that was introducing McLame for using Hussein's given name. Why did McLame NOT stand up during his campaign and tell the country WHY THE BAILOUT was needed and which party was to blame for setting up Fannie and Freddie to fail? The list goes on and on.

When Messiah was sworn in there were still pundits out there saying he would run the country from a centrist position - I never believed that for one second. And now we see exactly was is to take place - there is virtually NO WAY TO STOP THIS MARCH OFF THE CLIFF. Coleman would help, but his chances look very iffy what with the RATS stealing that seat. How about the ~ $200 M that Barry raised overseas from illegal contributors? Never investigated because they were all less than the threshold - how convenient - George Soros at his best. The one that really scares me is that Soros and Peters have finally got their total gun ban in their sights. Watch the UN on this issue and how Barry reacts. The gun banners will be pressuring the liberals running Congress.

The Democrats ‘bipartisan’ plan should not get one GOP vote. Call your Congressthings.

[MrB]

That’s kind of my point -

the electorate didn’t vote for “liberalism” or “socialism”.

They voted for the cool black guy who was promising flying unicorn rides for everyone.

[George Smiley]

My tagline says it all.

[TheOldLady]

Not when you’re talking about Rush.

[GeronL]

I don’t think the govt should be spending trillions of dollars it does not have. period.

[Cheerio]

You are correct, but there are still a lot of Bush/Cheney haters out there and Liberal that REALLY DO WANT TO CHANGE THIS COUNRY emulate Europe. John Effing Kerry was headed that way in 2004 but fortunately America did not want to change CIC in the middle of a war. In 2008 the war was won, and everyone's 401 collapsed - saying to themselves "Well maybe it is time for European-style Socialism".

I think it was a combination of both - hard core liberalism AND the free unicorn rides for those that "feel" some sort of guilt about slavery from the distant past. I heard the latte from many people.

"Rasmussen finds that 59% fear that Congress and the president will increase government spending too much in the next year or two."

Buyers' remorse.

“the electorate didn’t vote for “liberalism” or “socialism”.

They voted for the cool black guy who was promising flying unicorn rides for everyone.”

This is BRILLIANT!!! Sums up the 2008 Presidential election flawlessly!

One interesting question Rush pondered - was the probability that the Govmint will dictate maximum salaries for those entities they “socialize/bailout” i.e. banks, insurance companies. Since the Feds already dictate the minimum wage this is not much of a stretch.

To this end, I believe the Fed Dept. of Labor should immediately cap the salaries/remunerations of all Hollywood actors, grips, writers and hangers-on as the first socialist experiment. If it works - it should be adopted as policy.

[McGruff]

I am working with a few people who are starting to have second thoughts on voting for the Marxist in Chief.

When it hits them in the pocketbook most democrats become republicans real quick.

[Zeppelin]

Do I get a two-hour lunch and 6 weeks of vacation now??

When you're unemployed, you can take however long of a lunch (or vacation) as you'd like!

[RPTMS]

Welcome to Europe? Can we at least have some pretty castles and cathedrals to look at?

[Cheerio]

I believe the Fed Dept. of Labor should immediately cap the salaries/remunerations of all Hollywood actors, grips, writers and hangers-on as the first socialist experiment.

Gets my vote - I wish there was a way I could still go to see their movies, but honestly I hate them.

[carolinacrazy]

And how would you differentiate the successes of either when they are included in one bill hence implemented at the same time? Leave it to the media to differentiate? For his bill to work, the two stimulus bills would have to implement at different times.

[SoothsayerToo]

President Obama said in his inaugural address of how we needed to put aside our petty differences and work together. We constantly hear from the news media and different editorial pages on the need to work together. We are told of the crisis that confronts us and the need for innovative solutions. Obama quoted from George Washington at crisis point during the Revolutionary War of the need to work with common purpose.

In light of the crisis now before us should we as conservatives stand in the way? Let us all come together and support a truly innovative and bipartisan plan. That being the plan the Rush Limbaugh proposed today on his show, apportion the dollar amount of the stimulus plan by the percentage of how folks voted in the last election to how each side wants it spent. Call your congressman and senator today.

By comparing the number of private sector jobs generated to 0’s shovel project job, and the amount of consumer spending one year later. He reworded (brilliantly) Trickle Down economics.
