Other than radio rants...what has Rush Limbaugh done to improve this country? If he would have run for office...and then enacted legislation to solve problems...or made hard budget and staffing choices...THEN he would be able say something. However, that would require effort and accountability...two things that the many times married Limbaugh has studiously avoided. Do SOMETHING Rush....
I can not. I have only heard tidbits of Rush and all the other pundit / talking heads on "news" TV and radio. I have minimized, and quite frankly just about eliminated, watching / listening to any of it / them. Does me no good to hear their partisan rants you know. Still, I believe that each and every one of these people has a right to state their opinions, however controversial, whether I agree with them or not. Isn't that the essence of free speech? One huge thing that separates us from so many other countries? If the day comes where we have to start being fearful of the government for what we say, we will have definitely lost what makes us unique. That is my greatest fear.
With all due respect, I don't want to be insensitive to your objections relating to Limbaugh and I am certainly not defending the man's opinions. But that might make an interesting new thread...as in discussing particular theories he believes in. However, I think this thread is really about two public figures throwing mud at each other. Rush has a large audience but I don't believe it is anywhere near a majority of US citizens. And remember, despite all the talk about him being a voice for the GOP, he is still mainly an entertainer and his success depends on how much advertising dollars he can attract. His "antics" if you will are just part of his shtick. Regardless, IMO, they could both be more productive by channeling their energy elsewhere...especially the president of the USA. Arguing with Rush just empowers him a little more.
I would never support government stopping free speach. Think you for your honest post. I think someone has to fight back for the President against these guys or he has to fight back. IMO they (rush and the rest) incite violence everyday.
“The American people do not think that Barack Obama is doing what's best for the country,” Limbaugh
“For Barack Obama to run around and say that this show and Beck and all of talk radio is filled with vitriol? Barack obama sat in Jeremiah Wright's church for 20 years and never once complained complained about the tone of Jeremiah Wright's bigoted, anti-American, racist rants." Limbaugh
Polling data suggests that Rush may be right, as Obama's approval ratings sink.
Obama’s approval rating fell to 44 percent in the latest CBS News Poll, the lowest level of his tenure in office.
Obama should learn not to pick a fight with a person that buys radio waves by the megawatt.
President Obama the most important figure this century, a man lifting this country out of the Dark Ages created by Neocons and Limbaugh is a fat idiot cateriing to a segment of the country that is supremely clueless.
If Obama says that Limbaugh is an imbecile, he's right. Limbaugh part of an ideology that has never been right.
Limbaugh's audience is static. He's not going to gain any new listeners if Obama responds to his attacks. Limbaugh's dittoheads are beyond the reach of logic and rationality.
Yes, kinda like Obama's dittoheads. They believe every lie he tells them.

Hey man, I consider one rolling around in feces to make a few easy million for entertainment IS doing SOMETHING.

Well I am glad to hear you are making a few easy million, but I would be careful and not get any of those feces you're rolling around, in your mouth, eyes, ears or nose.

President Obama continues to do an excellent job.
I am sure he is doing an excellent job, somewhere at some task, but being President sure all hell isn't it.

Rush has fostered an entire movement of conservatism and conservative voices from Rush to Sean, to Dennis, (Miller and Prager), Mark, Glen and dozens of others. By being the voice of freedom, Rush does far more good, than as a politician. He is founderesque in his wisdom.
