Rush exposes what liberals, leftists, and many Dems wish would slip past, sans polemic. He is a pest, on the order of a 'fly in the soup'.
If the same 'Buffoon', instead, had liberal propensities, he would be worshipped by the Left. His intelligent, incisive, relentless, and entertaining unmasking of Dem's, and their agendas; enrages their emotional and idealistic natures (even when they never listen to him).
Good for him.....and good for the millions who recognize and defy shepherding, by "Leaders" and citizens with socialist proclivities.
Long live dissent, free speech, parody, satire.......and Rush.
He basically says that government can do nothing right and that's why we need to get rid of as much government as possible. Well ... I guess that means that airplanes are falling out of the sky left and right, people are dying left and right due to the horrid shape of our roads, and that we are suffering brownouts all the time and that the Internet is creaking to a grinding halt when the government isn't spying on their own public and the military is imposing martial law where it deems fit because the governments regulations are all doing a poor job of making sure that they are serving the public. ... oh wait, oops! Sorry Rush! You're wrong!
Rush says the government can't do anything right. Your counter argument is that because people are not dying on the roads and airplanes are not falling out of the sky, he is incorrect? Is that all it takes to consider something a success, no one dies? The fact that something is inefficient and costs too much doesn't matter? The government runs a lot of things that I consider failures: the DMV, the Post Office, the Department of Education are my top 3. Their service sucks and costs way too much, yet I don't think they have killed anyone, does that mean they are successful and we should try to set up more organizations like them?

Helping the needy is a Christian value. Using the government to force your fellow citizens to foot the medical bills of poor and irresponsible people is not. When everyone is required to fund something through taxes it is no longer charity and is encouraging irresponsible behavior.
Question: If Rush is so popular and has such a great following, why does'nt is run/hold any office? It would make sense to me that if you really believe what you are saying would'nt you set some sort of plan and go for it?
His claims that nobody is dying in the USA due to lack of health insurance is baloney and doesn't back up his findings with any facts. Even other right-wing think-tanks don't say it's zero ... so he's either doing
No one going to an emergency room for treatment gets turned away.
Rush has a rating of 99.3% right (according to the firm that rates his accuracy)

Actually, I have read that there are a lot of questions about the safety of this vaccine coming even from doctors.

Our founders also believed that. What does that say about your opinion?

Rush is right, 99.3% of the time!

What do you know about Rush's charitable giving? Nothing.

This is true. It's called "charity". Churches do it, and private individuals do it. Government giving "handouts" is theft, because the government must steal the money from taxpayers, who then have no choice about where their money is spent. This is such a simple concept a child can understand it; but not liberals, because they are stupid.

I can answer that: We the People, as our founders designed our system. Have you ever read the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution? Doesn't sound like you know much about either.

I take him deadly seriously, because he knows what he is saying, and he speaks truth from the heart. Liberals only lie, and Obama is the chief of liars. Open your eyes, man! And open a few history books. You have not a clue!

Who's trying to "sell out" the country? Have you any idea what Obama is doing? "Mr. and Mrs. Jones, I'm sorry, but the Chinese just bought your house ... you'll have to be out in six weeks. You know ... they own our debt ... and they want repayment."

Prove it. He's had 1 year! Very little can change the world's largest economy (which was a huge train wreck during all of W's years ... it was basically a credit bubble) in 1 year. The war on terror won't be won in 1 year or even 10. You can't immediately reverse the unemployment on a dime. This ain't the corner bakery that just needs a killer pain au chocolate to beat the other one across the street.
Is he perfect? Absolutely not. He is human, therefore, is not perfect, just like you, and me.
I personally just want to know anyone who does take him seriously and post why. And say it with a straight face.
In less than nine months this man has destroyed the dollar to the point where the world is considering not accepting it. He has cost countless jobs, and driven businesses to bankruptcy. He has (unconstitutionally) taken over private businesses, and (unconstitutionally) cut the pay of employees of private businesses. He has cost the taxpayers millions in a ridiculous "Cash for Clunkers" boondoggle (cost of about $24,000 per vehicle sold under this plan, to the taxpayers), he is costing American lives in Afghanistan by his inaction and inattention to the request of his Generals (basically, he has not a clue what to do, he's unqualified to make military decisions). He is destroying the economy with no plan for growth in the private sector (the only place where growth in GDP can occur) but instead is burdening business further with threat of more taxes, which will further slow growth and hiring.
No hope is in sight till this man is GONE! We may have some chance in 2010, if we can so weaken the Democrat Party as to render them (and the President) ineffective.
We hope we can save our country from total destruction. That is the direction this IDIOT is taking us at the present time.
So you just keep railing on people like Rush who are trying to save this Republic, and you just continue to wallow in your ignorance. I hope you can sleep at night, because I can't.
