That's why you can have polling data that show 55, 60% of the people oppose Obama's agenda and still support him. They don't associate his agenda with the problems in the country. They don't believe, they don't understand, they don't think that Obama's policies have had any of the negative impact on the country. Somebody else did that, other presidents did that. They view Obama as trying to fix it.
So this led to a discussion of the theory on Fox News yesterday. Megyn Kelly had a couple of guests. The first is the Talk Radio News Service president, Tony Sayegh. And she said to him, "Rush believes that people don't associate Obama's policies with what's happened in the country. They associate the spending and the debt to the lack of jobs, so they think he's out there working to fix it as opposed to the one who's created it."
SAYEGH: He does have support, whether Republicans like to admit it or not, on an emotional level with the voters. And if you look at the election, Megyn, what I suggest is that President Obama did something extremely effective. He ran it like a jury trial. He knew he was on trial. He found someone else to blame, George W. Bush. He created reasonable doubt that it was his fault, and we saw in the exit polling that people really did not associate the failure of the first four years with this president. So he's trying to continue down that road because he knows that he has, as the president, a very strong bully pulpit, and he's excellent at being able to talk directly to voters.

You can be sure he will be a powerful political broker in 2016 & beyond.
I don't see what any of that has to do with my original assertion that Limbaugh, graciously allows full posting of his articles at F.R.
If you dislike him, why post excerpts, requiring readers to click his web site when they wouldn't have to if you'd post the whole thing - again, which he allows?
My mistake on that last reply. I thought when I posted it that you were the original poster.
That’s OK. I knew that last part was not to me.
But this is the first I’d heard that Limbaugh explicitly allows full-text posting on FR. I know we do post full articles (with pictures!), and I read them all the time, but (to me anyway) that doesn’t mean we have specific permission to do so, it only means he hasn’t bitched about it like everybody else.
And I wasn’t amused when he implied all FReepers are retarded. I’m still not amused.
F.R. has a list of “excerpt only”, “Link only” and “do not post”, Limbaugh isn’t on any of them.
I found a link to F.R. while reading Rush in July 2003, prior to that, I’d never heard of the place.
Sometime around 2005, Rush quoted me, using my screen name and crediting me and F.R. I wasn’t listening at the time but people started pinging me like mad, by the time I turned on his show, he was off on another topic.
I don’t even remember what the subject was that he quoted me on but it was positive.
Glad to hear you had a good experience! :^)
