In an interview with CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, the president said that some congressional Republicans tell him privately that they believe defunding ObamaCare is a bad idea, but say they are “worried about what Rush Limbaugh is going to say about me on the radio.”



Really? A guy with a microphone is preventing the president of the United States from getting his way on Capitol Hill? Is Rush that powerful?
If this was a paragraph on an elementary school reading comprehension test, most, if not all of the students, would come to the conclusion that it is the GOP that is fearful of a radio show host (which btw...is common knowledge) and that the POTUS is acknowledging their fear..the students would be correct!.

Some of them sold us out on immigration and on Obamacare...and if I'm wrong, I won't be offended if you correct me.

Ever since Bengazi, I don't believe anything Obama says.

I dont disagree with you at all.

but take a look at guys like Rubio. Rush was dead set against Rubio's work on immagration.


Rubio didnt back down and neither did Rush. Republicans arent scared of Rush.

There may be some moderate center/left republicans that are afraid they will get primaried by a Tea Party candidate, but that is PARTY POLITICS.

The only people afraid of Rush are liberals. They are the ones that boycott, call for his firing, talk about how bad and mean he is. use him as an excuse to get Fairness doctrine put in place.


Liberals are scared. Republicans arent.

I show that we're now on page six of this thread. Perhaps counting is as difficult for you as admitting you are wrong.

Except, of course, for the lie that you opened the thread with.

Yeah, she distanced herself by becoming his Secretary of State for four years. I'm trying to decide if you are willfully ignorant or just plain ignorant. The jury is out...

I have heard Rush Limbaugh years ago, make terrible remarks about Hillary and Bill's daughter, and I stopped following him for many many years, due to that. I'm not saying his language isn't bad at times, it is...

and by the way, I've written Hannity and suggested if he wanted change he has to admit that both sides are corrupt and stop being a right wing extremists, b/c I even heard him say, "Bush didn't do such a good job" which he didn't.

I don't know if my letter to him caused him to change his views, but I've heard him say before that the Republicans are not doing they're job...and they are not, I totally agree....

yes, she worked for him for 4 years, and then what happened?
She got sick and retired....
I don't believe she was sick at all, I believe she was completely blown away that he thru her under the bus over Bengazi...

so she was told, if she wanted to run for President, to distance herself from him, b/c he is going down...and he is....and everytime he opens his mouth to speak, he digs himself in deeper.

I'm sorry, but Obama was just not President material....not enough experience...and thinks of himself as a God.....he is not...he is just a human being

And, I did not open the thread with a Lie, President Obama said that, that isn't a lie...he fears Rush Limbaugh...or he wouldn't have never said what he said on camera....what he said, is how he thinks and feels....

Under my very last post, it says, "PAGE 2 of 2"

She served longer than Condi Rice. Are you saying Condi bailed on W? In fact, Clinton served longer than the majority of people who held that office.

Yeah, we all got a good look at what you believe from your OP. Enough said.

He did make one, which is different than the one you criticised him about. The one you criticised him on you made up. We can discuss what he said, but discussions on the things you make up is not relevent. I don't see what needs to be discussed about the fiction, and straw men, you make up.

This quote landed on page 5, as well as the comment it quoted. This is reality and easily verifable.

I know actual reality has a liberal bias, but the more comments I read on this imagined "reality" you comment on...the more I see some seriously disturbed mental processes. I'm not trying to be rude, or insulting, but you may honestly want to get some real professional help. If it's this obvious across the web in a single thread, then it must have come up before.

I think anyone who believes something that has been absolutelty proven to be false, and doesn't care, might want to get a check by a professional. This isn't really a difference of opinion at this point, it's a difference of reality. Facts are the things that when you close your eyes they don't go away.

Yep, I remember him saying that and that's one reason why I think Rush is a disgusting fat old man. But that is why he is so popular with republicans.
