I agree .....but Limbaugh's comments mean nothing to me, and I would guess, even less to Emmanuel....

Rush is in freefall. Operation Chaos failed miserably, his followers didn't know who to follow because he doesn't like McCain.

Rahm isn't a thug ... he's Karl Rove with a brain.

Never heard of Rush. But Rahm"bo" ... another Chicago Machine politician, with Chicago being a mob run city, there is some truth to Rahm being a "Chicago thug".

Rahm may be a thug, but he is our thug.

He's all doped up again I'd suspect. Junky Rush.

OK. I’m sick of hearing about MSM and how liberal is it and how it was for Obama and how it helped Obama to get elected.
But nobody is really explaining WHY is the MSM doing this. I can give you $50 Mill. reasons why Rush is doing it. Or Hannity’s $30 Mill. reasons. This is what Clear Channel is paying them yearly. And who own Clear Channel? – Lowry Mays- billionaire from Texas. Mays is a close friend of and major fundraiser for both former President George H.W. Bush and current President George W. Bush.

Fox News Channel is owned by another billionaire - the ultra conservative Rupert Murdoch, who hired Republican political strategist Roger Ailes as its founding CEO. Murdoch's publications promoted hawkish views worldwide with regard to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. During the buildup to the invasion, all 175 Murdoch-owned newspapers worldwide editorialized in favor of the war.
But please explain to me why is the MSM helping Obama or the liberals. Who is behind all this liberal conspiracy? Who is paying Chris Matthews and Wolf Blitzer's salaries? Who owns ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN…? Russia?..China?...Iran?.... NO!!!
The Walt Disney Company owns ABC.
CBS is owned by Sumner Redstone. In 2007 he was ranked #86 on Forbes magazine's list of the hundred richest people in the world, with an estimated worth of US$ 9 billion.
NBC is owned by General Electric.
CNN is owned by Time Warner.
I can go on and on….
So again…WHY would any of those company support a socialist, almost communist, terrorists pal, Muslim like Obama.
What is their interest in wealth redistribution?

Contrary to losers on the left suggesting there is nothing to Limbaugh's comments on the democrats destroying 401Ks, Rush isn't the only one talking about it.
This is from U. S. News & World Report.
Would Obama, Dems Kill 401(k) Plans? - Capital Commerce (usnews.com)
Democrats have decided that the tax exemption we get for contributing to 401Ks is costing the U. S. Government $80Billion dollars so they are looking at getting rid of that tax benefit. There is (regardless of what libs around here are saying) a movement on Capital Hill with the democrats to socialize the 401K completely.
