What??? Is Rush now concluding that Pres Obama will serve a third term, has he concluded that he will win in 2012 already?

Quote:
You have to wonder if Obama is just trying to lay a foundation for not being a hypocrite when he tries to serve beyond 2016. I wouldn't be at all surprised if in the next number of years there is a move on the 22nd Amendment, which term limits the President of the United States.
Is he forgetting that there's been bills before the senate to extend terms of office beyond 8 years numerous times in the past but have never been passed?

Really? Did Obama talk to him about this? Or is he making this up like he makes up all the rest of his BS?

If it's from Rush, rest assured it's a total fiction.

Ah folks, do you read the news? Does Honduras ring a bell. The president there tried to run for another term which is against their constitution.

O'Grady: Honduras Defends Its Democracy - WSJ.com

Venuzuela, Chavez, President for life.

These things do happen.

And before you say it could never happen here. Did you ever think a President of the US would take over 2 of the big 3 car companies and give them to the unions??!!

Little problem with the Constitution.

Not to mention both would have lost.

Those two were too hated - folks love Obama.

Certainly Rush understands this.

Maybe Obama can pick up some residual MJ worship.

Limbaugh admitted that the GOP will lose in 2012.

Thats probably the only honest thing he said.
