He was/is correct on the referred to subject matter.

For the things you listed, I agreed about 0bama’s 2nd election prospects and the witch not running, at those times. I don’t know what you’re referring to about children or the markets.

As for Limbaugh in general, I find myself switching to Gibson half the time for various reasons. I do miss the DMZ (Miller) program.

There is a sure cure for socialism; seeing it in action.

Remember the schoolteacher whose students were favoring socialism, and used it in grading his classes? All the marks were averaged and everyone got the same grade, regardless of how well or how little they learned. Those who worked hard for superior grades found it pointless to continue the effort, and those who were doing poorly had no incentive to improve. So the overall grades rapidly approached the failure level.

Like the old Soviet saying, “we pretend to work; they pretend to pay us”.

...even the Grange movement in the Midwest all had some hint of socialism or collectivism.

Collectivism by CHOICE (Grange, Amish, etc.) is not necessarily a bad thing. Collectivism by FORCE is quite another matter.

“Just a few questions, sir. First, do you own guns, how many do you own, and why do you own them?”

A: 1- None of your business. 2- None of your business.
3- Break into my home some night and I’ll show you why.

If the Elect Bernie, I laugh and buy a ticket to Costa Rica.

There is currently no extradition treaty with Costa Rica, right?

it’s incredible — while Asia, Latin America (parts), Africa give up socialism and copy American capitalism, while they do that, the USA tries to implement a failed philosophy. Insane

That’s because America’s socialists are so much better and smarter than those in other countries.

Besides, once the public can get free treasures from government coffers (66% of US spending) then who in their right mind is going to vote capitalism?

Other than that. ;-]

Rush’s day has come and gone. One can learn more from an hour on the net, than from his 3 hour show.
