Obama taking on Rush Limbaugh is like Marie Antoinette’s disdain for the proletariat.
The best way for President Obama to rile up the conservative masses is to discount a man that we all agree with. President Obama could learn a few things about taking the arrows from President Bush. Obama is showing his weakness by attaching a commentator. Is this the way that Obama will make friends with Ahmedinejad and Hugo Chavez. Mr. President reach out your palm leaf and try to understand the conservative people of America.
President Obama just needs to reach out and give a hug to all of us who agree with Rush.
Come on President Obama, give me a hug!
Ops, I forgot that President Obama is the man who said, “”they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” (Malkin)
What do I expect from this man anyway?
Maybe it is better if Obama doth protest a little more,
It’s good for Rush Limbaugh’s radio show and conservatives!

Rush Derangement Syndrome
I interviewed Rush Limbaugh for a special Sunday piece for the New York Post about President Obama’s attack on him (and, by extension of course, talk radio and grass-roots conservatism). The Post titled the piece, “The Rush Revival.” But it’s more accurately the anti-Rush revival and the Rush Survival. As you’ll see, one of my main points is how using Rush as a left-wing bogeyman — and failing to bring him down — is as old as the hills.
One aspect of Rush Derangement Syndrome I didn’t have more room to cover in the piece was the contempt for Rush and talk radio among Beltway establishment Republicans and elitists on the center/Right. I’ve blogged extensively about talk radio-bashing hypocrites such as P.J. O’Rourke, Phil Gramm, Lindsay “Go away, Loud Folks” Graham, and Trent Lott. I asked Rush to diagnose their pathology. “I think they all crave acceptance and inclusion in the dominant political and social cultures of Washington, which is run by the Left. They fastest way to do that is to be critical of their own party. This gets them loving treatment in ‘important’ New York/Washington media circles,” he said.
On-target diagnosis. I would add two more etiological factors.
Yeah figure that out.
He warns everybody not to get involved with Rush Limbaugh, but he will whip out the industrial strength knee pads to win Ahmedinejad’s affections.
Not to mention he goes on Arab TV for his first sit down interview and sings the Blame America First theme song to win the Muslims approval.
Is there a pool on how long it takes the US to become the first superpower Banana Republic?

RightWinger,
You are so right!
There is a part of me that just wants to sit back and watch as Obama descends America into a second rate world power. Possible putting us in danger of having no power at all.
The sad part is that he will take us down to such a low point, that we may never recover. This presidency is a serious matter. Our children and our grandchildren will suffer from the weak kneed Americas who put him in office and who will follow his policies into oblivion.
No, as entertaining as it would be to watch Obama’s policies fail and teach the American voters a lesson, the stakes are too high.
We must document, comment, and educate the public to save America’s future.
God bless,

Born and Raised a right Winger I was!!
Thank GOD for evolution and intelligence through Education, NOT religious brain washing one finally rises above ignorance to the exalted state of Awareness and Liberalism! =0)
BUSH has already done the deed of dragging our Incredible Nation down to hell “…down to such a low point, that we may never recover.” I suggest you get down on YOUR knees and thank GOD that he has raised up a new “savior” to our nation and the Only Hope “…Our children and or grandchildren…” will ever have of seeing the light of day again and a hope for a brighter future.
As for Hugs my dear little riggword??? I’m more than sure with the ignorant rhetoric that falls out of your tiny little brain, like Limbaugh’s, you can find all the hugs your looking for from other intellects like yourself, in the KKK.
