AND NOW . . . amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke. . . it is time for . . . that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-the-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, serving humanity simply by showing up, and he’s not retiring until every American agrees with him, do NOT doubt him, with shrieks of joy at the mere mention of his name (that’s Rush, for those in Rio Linda),the Mandarin of Talk Radio, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back — just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, all-concerned Maha-Rushie! America’s anchorman, truth detector, and doctor of democracy. A Real Man, a living legend, a way of life. Commander in Chief of U.S. Operation Chaos. Chief Waga-Waga El Rushbo of the El Conservo Tribe. Chief of the Patriotism Police. Leader of the Conservative Movement. A Weapon of Mass Instruction. El Rushbo (a little Spanish lingo, there). He is the man who is running America (you know it and I know it). He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do—that’s host. Get ready to what you were born to do—that’s listen (and post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread).
UGH!!!
You know that the Dems have NO PLATFORM to run on when they are resorting to making this entire election into a social programs election.
ALL of us, no matter what social media site we are on, needs to make it quite clear that this is NOT about denying contraception aids to women. We also have to echo what RUSH said about what will happen if PPACA (Obamacare) is allowed to stand. You and I will NO LONGER own our bodies.
LOL! At least he knew he was cursed.
The overriding issue is whether or not the DBM still has the power to advance the lies that will come fast and furious out of the DNC.If they can and people keep buying the lie it will be tough for us. If people question what the DBM says we have a shot at winning.
Maybe it’s time for Issa and the pubbies in the House to stop playing into the ‘rats hands.
Just cut to the chase and begin hearings into impeachment proceedings.
Holder first, the twits in charge at HHS and Agriculture right after him and The 0 can bat cleanup.
Screw ‘em. This is a war.
I hope Issa investigates Media Matters and their ties to the WH and NBC soon.
Well, with the DNC having “Was-a-man” Schultz as their spokes-liar....you know anything coming out of that yap of hers is going to be a bald faced lie!
Setting aside for a moment Coulter's delusion about Romney and forced STATE (instead of federal) RomneyCare:
Ann Coulter: COMMUNISM BY INSURANCE MANDATE (Marxist Health Care)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Obama is rather proud it's being called ObamaCare. As some here on FR call it, CommieCare is a more realistic and descriptive term.
The ONLY 100 percent guaranteed way of NOT having a baby, NOT needing an abortion and NOT getting an STD is to..........NOT HAVE SEX!!
Issa is good at holding hearings...but I fear I am losing what small shred of hope I had, that he will do anything about any of this crap! I am greatly distressed and quite frankly angry, that the “Republicans” in DC are such spinless bastards, the lot of them!
They are ALL either corrupt or too chickenshit to stand up and be counted. We do not have Statesmen anymore. Even the great hopes of the last election, all seem to have been co-opted.
I am beyond angry. I have great fear for this nation.
I had a blast last night. I took one of the “Santorum voted for/against” copy/paste posts and followed the links. I then reposted with comments on what else was on the bills. It made me like Santorum more, not less.
Examples:
Against 1000 more Border Patrol Agents. Reason: was supporting an amendment to raise their pay to a level more suitable to the risk and hire a smaller number of agents.
Another against raising BP agents and placing them in certain places. He supported another amendment that would have determined where they were placed more scientifically instead of depending on politicians to decide.
(One of these alternatives, McCain offered and then yanked after he got his party to vote them down. Added more ammunition on McCain’s behavior as well.)
Against welfare reform would have doubled SCHIP for two years.
It went on and on. It is one of the reasons Senators who actually participate in the process have a tough time in presidential politics.
Thank you for posting the text and the link. He really was brilliant and a man for all time.
GM Pays Less Tax Than Buffet’s Secretary; UAW Gets Bonuses
General Motors reported year end earnings figures today. The company made about $9 billion dollars in 2011. How much of its "fair share" is GM paying in taxes? Zero. In fact, from GM's financial report, they actually received a "benefit" of $110 million for the year. The UAW benefited as well, as they are set to receive $7,000 per worker in profit sharing bonuses.
The sweet tax deal GM receives was set up by the Obama Administration as the company was granted a multi-billion dollar tax credit for loss carry-overs when they exited their bankruptcy proceeding. Normally, the company would not have received the tax credit but the bankruptcy process was anything but normal. Creditors were put in the back of the line to protect UAW interests and tax code was changed so that GM could profit for years without paying its fair share in taxes. President Obama now campaigns on the perceived success at GM and any help he can give to the company will result in additional votes come November. As taxpayers lose out, GM profits and shares the wealth with the politically favored UAW.
Despite all the claims of sacrifices at the UAW, members continue to benefit as evidenced by the $7,000 profit sharing checks they will receive as a result of the wealth redistribution scheme orchestrated by the Obama Administration. Executives at GM seem to be doing pretty well also as they receive millions of dollars in stock options. For their part, the UAW has agreed to strongly support the President come election time. And the hypocrisy of GM's tax deal is obvious as Obama makes claims that corporations need to pay their fair share.
Crony corporations like GM and General Electric (which also is known to avoid taxes) are conveniently left out of the criticisms. Also on the favored list are wealthy purchasers of Chevy Volts who receive federal tax credits of $7500 to buy the cars. President Obama wants the rich buyers to have even more wealth redistributed to them in the form of higher credits, which he reportedly wants to raise to $10,000.
The GM earnings report seems to be getting favorable reviews as the share price rose on the news. Considering the $50 billion that taxpayers forked over to bailout GM along with the sweet tax deal, it is understandable that the company seems to be on the road to recovery. There was some evidence of roadblocks, however, as European woes surfaced and pension obligations rose to over $25 billion. Government Motors has recently announced that non-union salaried employees will have their pensions frozen. The company also is looking in to cutting white collar workers. It seems that the goal of job creation and preservation at GM only applies to union workers.
I can not fault the individual UAW workers at GM for benefiting from the political actions of the Obama Administration and GM. I'm sure many of them are hard working individuals. The problem is, most of the rest of us do not have the benefit of belonging to politically favored unions. Non-union taxpayers are picking up the tab for those favored classes that help with President Obama's election campaign. And that's just not "fair."

But that is what the Democrats are about. That is their PLATFORM.
hillary clinton has said .... we are far better qualified to care for you than you will ever by ....
I spent time looking for the quote of her saying that. I have the link someplace..... I know she said it.
I wish she would open her door to the thousands of grocery cart, park bound, homeless we have here.
Oh, but they did hide the people while APEC was here and I just bet obama waved to them as he rode by.
Thanks for the post and ping, thouworm!
