Can somebody explain me why republicans hate democracy?
There must be 1000s of republicans that were democratically elected by american citizens.

Now the republicans want to renew themselves
so they handpick a multimillionaire college dropout that hates 75% of americans and has NEVER won a single vote from an american.

Thanks to the republicans, Limbaugh got an "affirmative action" pass and skipped 1000s of republicans that busted their a... to get people's vote.
Included Michael Steele who was just elected RNC chairman.

Do republicans believe in democracy?
Why do you call your leader a person that has never won a single vote?

How many votes has Limbaugh got?

Picking Limbaugh as the republican leader is the exact same thing as if democrats picked Howard Stern to be our leader.
He hasn't got any votes, but he has a popular radio show

All republicans care about are the mighty dollar and talking points, both of which Limbaugh has in abundance.

Well, it's easy to see that the barryO supporters don't believe in democracy, since they voted for a guy who's personal background includes racist America-haters, America-hating domestic terrorists, and America-hating marxists, which goes a long way in explaining why he's determined to "remake" America into a European-style socialist democracy.

Rush never "won a single vote", because he's never run for any office....or is that fact too difficult for your feeble brain to handle?

Rush's popularity is based on the fact that he loves this country...you sure as hell can't say that about dems, OR obammyO....and he expresses that love, and the supremecy of conservatism....the kind that's embodied in the Founding documents...over liberalism, which has it's basis in the writings of Karl Marx, and the practices of stalin, mao, castro, pol pot, and hugo.

The other 100 Rush threads aren't good enough? I fully understand the polarization of the nation during and election but for there to be some sort of massive campaign to turn a talk show host into the leadership of a party is just plain ridiculous. We understand you want to take eyes off what the president himself is doing. We get it! They are about to spend trillions and now they are trying to do a magic trick. Look over here while we do all this other stuff over here and POOF! magic.

That's really funny....considering the fact that there's a whole lot of dems and whacked-out obammy supporters who are a lot more wealthy than Rush.

Care to explain that glaring bit of hypocrisy to our readers? And while we're at it, are you trying to say that you wouldn't be happy to have the kind of income that Rush has earned as a result of being so much smarter than you that it's NOT funny?

Hang on, folks....this should be interesting.

Except the the dems aren't cowering to a talk show host. Funny you should bring up smarts about a guy that makes more money on how much more outrageous he can be. Is he smart, well he smart enough to make millions on your ignorant butts.

Exactly who is it that elected Rush as a political leader? He's a political commentator with a large following.

Wow. That's certainly an original. Limbaugh is a political commentator. Stern is a sexual commentator. Unless you're trying to tell us something about Dim political thought, I'd advise staying clear of that analogy.

I'm still curious to know exactly who was it that appointed Limbaugh to be the leader of the Republican Party. I'm just sayin' that I don' think the Party got the memo or we'd have a lot more principled conservatives around.

As for Limbaugh having a national voice, I fail to see where the animosity is coming from. Yeah, he's a high school drop-out. And certainly not from the Beltway political/ NYC media crowd. Seems to me that's what a lot of Americans have been looking for those sorts of self-made individuals outside of the typical circles of power to be their political leaders for some time, though, doesn't it?

I don't think this pony show will keep the American populace distracted for too long from what is happening with our nation's budget and the use our money is being put to right now, but I get the point.
