Try, sanrene, just try to stay focused here. This thread is about Rush Limbaugh intentionally lying about the inability to trust President Obama or the White House about donations made to the Red Cross via a link on the whitehouse.gov website. Period.

Truly the mind boggles. Instead of repeating myself, since you clearly don't read for comprehension, let's try it this way. . .

Sanrene, when someone goes to whitehouse.gov with the intention of making a donation to the Red Cross for relief efforts in Haiti, who gathers that information and who collects the donation?

That's all I want to know from you. Just answer that question.

Please take your hijack about the relative left-wingedness of Barack Obama or Bill Clinton to another thread.

Focus, people, FOCUS!

Rush Limbaugh lied to his audience about how donation information is collected and distributed when accessed via whitehouse.gov. That's the subject of this thread.

So if the left can pretty much agree that someone is not a left winger, then I'd have to take their word for it. If the majority of conservatives were unhappy with McCain and criticized him harshly and denied he was conservative, I'd have to take their word for it. This is not the case.
I have heard many refer to Obama as a Centrist and I agree. The Progressives have many complaints about how he has addressed some of the issues. I agree with the poster that stated that anyone who considers Obama far left must be a right wing radical .

Who knows what info they snipe through the whitehouse website.

I'd rather go the red cross directly and donate. Don't need whitehouse.gov as the middle man.

FOCUS people FOCUS how many Rush Limbaugh threads can we start in a day! Cause damn it we don't have enough!

You made the claim that Rush is inciting distrust of the President. I made the claim that yes, there is plenty of justification to distrust the president in light of his behavior.

Completely On topic.

Exactly the point. Considering their past behavior of encouraging snitching, collecting AND keeping email addresses, I wouldn't trust them to somehow politicize and capture information from the website.

The dishonest ones you need to look are for are the news sources that implied the above lie!

Rush is no longer addicted.

He is no a criminal. (Where are you getting that? Making it up, I assume, which is what you liberals always do.)

And, he is not "King of the Republicans".

You people are so lame.
