There is a split among conservatives between those who think the NSA's collection of data about every phone call in America is an important counterterrorism tool, and those who think President Obama is, as usual, trampling on the constitution and the flag and the Founding Fathers. But Rush Limbaugh takes it one step further. He says Obama is leading a coup d'etat. And this time it's for real.

I agree. Sadly, the rot and destruction has been from within.
Did you see this from the same comment?:

OK, some checking and yes, Limbaugh does promote an accuracy rating of 99.6%. The problem? It is an accuracy of OPINION. An opinion is simply an opinion, there is no right or wrong in an opinion. Facts, however, are what may be true or not. Limbaugh’s rating didn’t include any facts.
There is no right or wrong in an opinion??
Yeah, this poster is a mental giant alright....oy
I see that you have a Rush Limbaugh ping list. :)
No, I think you are right. I think he’s very intelligent, witty and with it.
Not a heavyweight.
But, geeze, I expect someone like him to add two plus two and for everyone else on the panes to jump on the point. But they’re in company with Andrew McCarthy and the people Rush is talking about. It defies logic they don’t realize what’s going on
Correct. Some of his listeners could follow the dots much sooner than RUSHBO.
Yep, I think you summed it up nicely.
Dang, that’s going for as much as $72 on Amazon.
Excellent! Thanks for finding that one.
Yes, but Rush and I go back alot longer than that.
Same here, kfbk in Sacramento, 1988 or so.
Been an avid listener ever since...up up and away....lol!
I frequently monitor conservative talk radio sometimes staying up to all hours in the early am and this is what Rush is talking about.
On Friday night talikes competeing with Red Eye 6/7/13 WIND am 560 Mike Gallagher and Dennis Praeger both defended the monitoring. Gallagher called it a distraction from the more serious Bengahzi developments and a first caller supported his statements. Praeger went even furthur. Citing the news source for “The Guardian” series of articles as comming from a known anti American, anti Israeli,pro-Palestinian who sees benefit if this monitoring were stopped. Following that is a statement from NY congressman King reported Sun 6/9, supporting the administration. Which is probably a source Praeger is using.
Now both Levin and Savage (horrors I used both their names in the same sentence)cite the Boston Marathon bombings as a prime example that this system is not being used to detect Moslem extremist activity (my characterization not theirs) but directed toward other results.Savage citing the Florida castor oil letter writer as an example.
Point is nobody trusts what this regime is telling US. Nor should we ! For after all,have your heard who’s causing forest fires ? Why it’s our trusted government agent “Smokey The Bear” and scaring the hell out of every kid 10 years old and younger, where he’s telling US that 9 out of 10 forest fires are caused by people.
Bunch of creeps...
The NSA program started under Bush, so how can this be Obama’s coup d’etat? Hint: this goes deeper than who is president. By focusing on Obama, Rush is distracting us from facing this uncomfortable question. Who/what is behind the changing nature of the state?
!
Among other things, she believed that O. J. didn't do it (70% of blacks believed that O. J. was innocent - not just that the prosecution didn't prove its case - but that he didn't do it - period!).
But what jumped out was this exchange:
QUESTION: What impact did the domestic abuse have on your decision?Bill Handel, a Los Angeles radio talk show host (who's actually liberal on some issues), began blasting her on his program for her ignorance. He repeatedly referred to her as "Brenda Moron." Every time he said this, I quietly cheered (I was at work).
MORAN: Domestic abuse, to me that was a waste of time. This was a murder trial, not domestic abuse. If you want to get tried for domestic abuse, go in another court room and get tried for that.
Moron's lawyer eventually asked Handel to cease and desist.
Good point.
A leak from the drug-addled communist’s political campaign back in 2008 warned us that Obama wanted to fundamentally transform America. Since we were a (mostly) free and (overwhelmingly) powerful country, we should not be surprised that this has turned into a coup.
I just now checked out the writer’s quotes of Rush. They may or may not be in context, but they’re accurate.
Elspeth might be a wonderful person. She probably hugs bunnies and recycles pillows. Her article is in The Atlantic, though, and they are not friends with conservatives.
The Atlantic.....full of sewage, old wrecks and garbage. It’s also the name of an ocean.
