1. He wants to split the Republican party, "divide and conquer" motto has worked very well for the Dems, when Republicans/conservatives are divided and are fighting amongst themselves, the DEMS WIN.
2. I think Obama IS actually afraid that Rush' message will resonate and there will be a united opposition to Obama's socialist policies.
I think we all darn well need to hope and work to make sure that Obama's socialist, dictatorial policies, resulting in the destruction of our economy and the US as we know it WILL FAIL.
Obama's success is a third-world-like USSA (United Socialist States of America), where everyone ( except the ruling class) is equally poor, because "the rich" will leave the country and there won't be anyone left from whom to take things away. That's what happened in the communist countries.
The socialists know that the DC GOP cares only about retaining their elected positions in DC and that means NOT ROCKING THE BOAT.
The DC GOP "Leadership" is DISGUSTING.
This is Rules for Radicals rule #13: pick a target, personalize it, polarize it.
Straight out of the Alinsky playbook.
This is an unprecedented strategy by the president of the USA to attack a private citizen.
I'm not sure why he's doing it, but it's guaranteed to increase Rush's audience which is good for conservatism in the long run.
The bastards are pulling out all the stops to marginalize Rush.
I agree 110%! I hope and pray Limbaugh is a barrier, and an iron one at that.
Those pesky rights of dissent and free speech are getting in the way of the messiah's agenda. They might have to do something about that.
“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
We’re onto you, Alinsky nutjobs.
Payback is hell especially when you are trying to ruin this country!!! Why don't you send me a dead fish you little putz!
What a little smart ass hypocrite!
FAIL OBAMA FAIL!!!
Emanuel: Rush Prays For Obama’s Failure
http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/03/01/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry4836756.shtml
Schieffer asked if Emanuel really believed that Limbaugh was such an influential force within the GOP, to which his guest said, “I do think he’s an intellectual force, which is why the Republicans pay such attention to him.”
“But our goal, Bob, is to continue to reach out,” Emanuel added. “And it’s our desire that the Republicans would work with us and try to be constructive, rather than adopt the philosophy of somebody like Rush Limbaugh, who is praying for failure.”
TRANSLATION: We want the Republicans to roll over and stop obstructing our communist agenda.
Barrier to progress?
his country has never had unanimity in politics, why is it needed now?
Because OBAMA WILL FAIL, no matter what anyone says. His kind of policies have always failed, whether implimented in a democray, or in a totalitarian state.
" They don't elevate the bottom, the tear down the top!" is a recipe for disaster.
Obama wants disaster. And America has not yet begun to ask why, But we are getting closr to that point.
Obama wnats to destroy the nation that he hates, just as he hates white people, as outlined in his books.
Rush doesn't have to cheer the failure of Obama in order for obama to actually fail. Its a done deal. Obama WILL fail.
Saul Alinski indeed.
Rush Limbaugh is Emmanuel Goldstein, and it is time for the two minute hate.
Rep. Eric Cantor, the fourth-ranking Republican in the House, could be next on the list. He said Sunday he does not take the Limbaugh approach of supporting failure.
“I don’t think anyone wants anything to fail right now. We have such challenges. What we need to do is we need to put forth solutions to the problems that real families are facing today. And our common-sense, conservative principles of limited government, and the belief in free markets, and the belief that really opportunity can only be created by the private sector are going to undergird our proposals going forward,” Cantor told ABC’s “This Week.”
REFRAME YOUR DEBATE (like libs do):
Voters speaking out is a “barrier to progress!”
How DARE a private U.S. Citizen speak out against the Chosen Ones!!
“Chief of staff Rahm Emanuel...suggested that Limbaugh’s desire for the president’s policies to fail is the uniform position of the GOP.”
It’s not just the desire of Rush, but of every conservative American in the country! And Rahm ought to know that many independents and moderate Democrats are beginning to voice the same desire. It doesn’t take too many gray cells to see the logical and inevitable outcome of Obama’s policies.
...Limbaugh can’t implement a single idea.
Nor can he stop anything the left wants to do.
And yet he’s liberal public enemy number 1.
Very interesting...
progress = coercion
This is nothing less than the implementation of a planned strategy. The beauty of it is that Michael Steele, Eric Cantor and the rest of the ball-less wonders of the GOP are going to do most of the work.
"And I think that's the wrong philosophy for America," Emanuel said on CBS' "Face the Nation."
I call the resident a liar and purveyor of deceit and communism What the Resident is selling is snake venom still inside the snake.
The very simple truth is Rush has common sense. And they can’t fight common sense.
