LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

Republicans, Limbaugh selectively patriotic

Saturday, Oct. 10, 2009 | 2:04 a.m.

After eight years of wrapping themselves in the American flag, Republicans now routinely celebrate American defeats and mourn American successes. Our loss of the 2016 Olympics was cheered last week, and President Barack Obama’s receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize was slammed Friday.

Why was the Peace Prize a surprise? For eight years George W. Bush strode the globe with such arrogant threats as “You’re either with us or against us” — and his support of torture — while his dwindling supporters labeled as “unpatriotic” any critic of his policies. Seeking a change from a presidency that many historians rate as the worst ever, Barack Obama was elected by a margin that dwarfed his predecessor’s wins.

That’s when the Republicans’ standard-bearer, Rush Limbaugh, declared that he hoped Obama would fail. It didn’t matter that this also meant America would fail. And the Republicans have lined up behind Limbaugh ever since. I guess their national pride exists only when a Republican is in the White House.

  2. they have no national pride paul, you can see how holocast happened, people being urged to hate one another. look at these hateful rightwing posts all the time

  3. Olympic failure was a failure of corrupt Chicago politics with Obama at center to win over a higher standard-merit! Obama did not earn the
    Nobel Peace Prize. His winning the prize is not a victory for America,but rather a reflection that " internationalism" trumped American interests in the Nobel voting. It was the work of kool aid drinking leftists who could not care less about America and its people!

  5. It's time to shoot the birdie this morning

  6. Obama donates his $1.4 million prize to charity. Bush-Klan, crimial enterprise, not so much. GHWB pocketed the $16 million he made from insider-stok trading at Global Crossings, Inc. Neil Bush pocketed the $1 BILLION he stole from Denver's Silverado Bank, and unlike Mayweather, he didn't pay any income taxes either.

    Rush Lim"P"baugh, Dobbs (birther), cal Thomas, O'Reilly, McConnel, Delay, Boehner, Sessions, Shelby, Cronyn, Coburn, Bishops Mitt-Hatch, Grassley, etc., they are felonious Vietnam War draft-dodgers, pARDONED by President Carter. GOP & Carter = BFF!! Silly me! Aren't convicted and committed FELONS prohibited from holding any elected office? Young College Republicans! Future Draft Dodgers of America!

    "Obama did not earn the Nobel Peace Prize. His winning the prize is not a victory for America"
    ...you are correct that Obama's Nobel Peace prize is NOT a victory for America, but he did earn the NPP based on the NPP committee's criterion. Look at these Obama accomplishments(in the eyes of the NPP committee): he has weakened the USA financially, morally, militarily; he has apologized to anyone and everyone who would listen for America's supposed sins(meaning GWB's presidency); he has allowed Iran to attain nuclear weapons; he has betrayed our former allies(Poland, Czechoslovakia, Israel); he has promised to unilaterally disarm the USA; he is the hero for anti-American forces around the world, centered in Oslo and the UN.

  8. Here's one for the lefties:

    "Uhm, uhm, uhm, Barack Hussein Obama
    He said all should lend a hand to make the country strong again
    Uhm, uhm, uhm, Barack Hussein Obama
    He said we must be fair today, equal work means equal pay
    Uhm, uhm, uhm, Barack Hussein Obama
    He said take a stand, make sure everyone gets a chance
    Uhm, uhm, uhm, Barack Hussein Obama
    He said red, yellow, black and white, all are equal in his sight
    Uhm, uhm, uhm, Barack Hussein Obama
    YEAH. Barack Hussein Obama"

  9. I still can't keep from laughing at the total irrelevance of the Nobel Peace Prize.

    Now they can place a picture of Obama right next to Carter. That's the real prize...

    For years I have been wondering what Carter did to deserve the award. Now I know... NOTHING!!!

    I am just giddy with excitement.

  10. Small minds posting small, narrow, ignorant comments. This is what the Nobel Peace Prize committee wrote:
    The Nobel Peace Prize for 2009
    The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 is to be awarded to President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples. The Committee has attached special importance to Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons.
    Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts. The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations. Thanks to Obama's initiative, the USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened.
    Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population.
    For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world's leading spokesman. The Committee endorses Obama's appeal that "Now is the time for all of us to take our share of responsibility for a global response to global challenges."

  11. And for Bush's entire eight years we heard from leftwing loonies that "dissent is patriotic" as they openly hoped for American failure in Iraq and Afghanistan. And some of these nutcases were even wondering where is Lee Harvey Oswald at when they need him. Now everyone is just supposed to shut up and do as the messiah and his crackpot followers say. These freaky loons were sour grape loser whiners for eight years of Bush and they are still whiners now.

  12. The lefties are alive and well, spreading hate among their fellow man.

    They love to name call anyone who has different political views then their own. Take Rush Limbaugh for instance. He drives the lefties completely berserk. Nobody is forced to listen to Limbaugh. Limbaugh has approximately 3.6 million regular viewers which amounts to a little over 1% of the U.S. population. So that's not a sufficient percentage, but the lefties would love to see Limbaugh hanged, drawn and quartered.

    After the blood letting, lefties say that they are the party of compassion and that they love their fellow man.

    I guess the lefties don't consider that Russ Limbaugh is their fellow man...

  13. Small Minds? The Norwegans and other Europeans have no minds. You have whole countries who are populated with inbreds who are too stupid to take care of themselves. The Scandanavians are the worst. Who can imagine living in a society where people are incapable of taking care of themselves and have to rely on some pea brain illiterate little idiot from the government to make their decisions for them. What ever happened to the concept of individual freedom. If you can't take care of yourself you don't deserve to live here.

  14. mschaffer, nice post.
    Larry, are you SURE you aren't Nance's little brother? Also Lar, that crap is with all the uhms in it... dude,it hurts my eyes to look at, let alone try to read it.
    jlb101, you ain't for real. Can't be. Isn't POSSIBLE, is it?

  15. I seem to recall another one-term president who "won" the Nobel joke prize. Its time tto bring back the Gong Show. The new format should have Leftist contestants and Conservative judges.

  16. lookie lookie at the stupid pathetic republican liars...
    and their ugliness...
    ugly ugly ugly maggots...
    who the hell would want to be a stupid pathetic lying republican these days...
    absolutely no one...
    oh by the way...
    hey bandit...
    first you threaten our great president...
    now you threaten me...
    you are pathetic skippy...
    just a snot nosed child throwing a tantrum...
    but i will tell you what skipster...
    you want to know what honestly surprises me skippy...
    i am honestly surprised that somebody hasn't shot rush limbaugh...
    i am honestly surprised that somebody hasn't shot glenn beck...
    i am honestly surprised that somebody hasn't shot karl rove...
    these ugly ugly ugly maggots clearly have played a large role in creating the toxic environment we find ourselves in now...
    they get nut jobs like yourself all fired up with hate, arrogance and false bravado...
    and make no mistake skipster...
    there will be a special place in hell reserved for those three ugly ugly ugly maggots...
    and given your current course of action...
    there might just be a spot reserved for you too!!!

  17. Hey gmag...

    I thought that you personally would recall where that "song" came from. Oh, I forgot, you don't watch FOX NEWS so you don't get all the news. That "song" was being sang by grade school children while they were in school. So much for indoctrination of students by their teachers.

    Don't forget to order the Nobel Peace prize commemorative picture that is fit for framing with the photos of Carter, Gore and Obama embedded in it...

  18. ..."This is what the Nobel Peace Prize committee wrote:
    ...For 108 years, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has sought to stimulate precisely that international policy and those attitudes for which Obama is now the world's leading spokesman."
    Translation for our liberal friends:
    Anything that weakens the USA! At least the Nobel committee is honest enough to state the truth. But of course our president, and I use that term loosely, is supposed to protect and defend the constitution of the USA, not weaken us. But we got what we deserved, we elected this fool and idiots like mschaffer and gmag are actually proud of themselves for voting for this fool and giving our country away.

  19. i have to tell you...
    i actually like the obama song...
    espouses solid american values...
    catchy tune...
    thumbs up from the brilliant birdie...
    unlike that pathetic song about w the scum bag liar loser clown and hurricane katrina...
    can't you just picture laura bush selling her soul to the devil singing that song with a bunch of children...
    what complete and total maggots there were in w the scum bag liar loser clown's administration...
    maggots, maggots everywhere...
    it's time to squash us some maggots!!!

  20. Rush Limbaugh is a vile, repulsive bag of corpulent inhumanity whose mother would have done mankind a great service if she had strangled him at birth. For him to be allowed to judge a beauty contest is equivalent to allowing Bill O'Reilly to appear on "Are you Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?". Neither would be capable of making an informed decision because of neither one has the mental equivilency of the average fifth-grader.

  21. What planet do you live on: jlb101 post10/10/09 at 9:15 a.m.? Norwegians surely have a leg up on you, that's for sure. I don't think it matters what nationality you are or what race--stupid is as stupid does. You are definately experience a stupid moment. I hope you recover!

  22. And then along comes 23bigdong1 and secretes so much hate for those who holds different political views then his own.

    Soo much hate there from those who claim to be from the party of love for their fellow man.

    I bet the left learners are really proud of their kindred from the far left who spew so much hate on a day the rest of us are celebrating Obama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize.

  23. Joy: my Viking ancestors were the terror of Europe. The current Norge are fish eaters.

  24. For LarryVegas: Let me get this straight, are you not risking brain strain by actually reading the Sun, instead of the RJ which is much more in tune with the knuckle-dragging mentality demonstrated by those of your right-wing Neanderthal nut-job political kindred. And I'll bet you are celebrating Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize about as much as your hero, Rushbo Limpballs. And as far as my bigdong goes, how did you know or are you just dreaming?

  25. Hey biggy...

    I Don't read the SUN or the RJ. And I have not listened to Limbaugh for over twenty years. I am only here to examine why so many of you Lefties can not have a decent discussion without name calling.

    I might have been wrong on that big thing. I was always told that those with little brains had big...

  26. All Americans do Not support Obuma. The guys a loser who can't speak without a script. The sitting Pres. has no backbone. All talk and no actions for this sitting Pres. is why the Republicans don't back him.

    Who can back somebody who cares more about his appearance on David Letterman than the issues American's are dealing with.

    Obuma is spoiled, That's right Obuma's kids go to private schools, this gives Obuma a full understanding of what kids should do in public schools. This Pres has no clue!!!

    You morons that elected him will feel real stupid in future years after all the failure's.

  27. Hey, Larry, good one. And I have a very snappy comeback concerning your... but I won't because it would be a cheap shot. I'll bet with our totally opposite points of political views, we could have some very stimulating conversations over a beer someplace. I am a 73 year-old retired Navy Master Chief Aviation Ordnanceman who did most of my thirty years working the flightdecks of seven different aircraft carriers. After I retired, I spent the next twenty-five years writing weapons-related technical manuals for the Army and Navy. What have you done for your country lately?

  28. Nothing much lately... Except for the past twenty years, I protected the United States Borders as a front line armed U.S. Immigration and Border Protection Officer.

  29. Good on you.

  30. jsayler-Congratulations for having the intelligence to move to a civilized country. It is definately several steps up from where you came from. I hope you can deal with the freedoms we still have here before they are gone. I know it is hard to move to a place where you still have some responsibility for yourself and I hope you can enjoy it while we still can. I'm sorry that your countrymen have to live in a government controled tyrrany and then brag about it. I'm sure the problem there is due to the inbreading. I may be stupid but everyone in Norway is stupid to allow the government to dominate their lives the way they do. They should do like this country did in 1770's, take up guns and throw the tyrants out.

  31. bigdon spent his entire life collecting a government paycheck. Wow, great initiative!

  32. Uhm, Uhm, Uhm, Larry Vegas, why are you trying to draw so much attention to Obama's full name? Are you that culturally backwards?

  33. LarryVegas-You are brave. It must be terrifing to go out there with a gun knowing that if you use it your own goverment may well throw you in jail instead of the crook. My appreciation for trying to do an impossible job.

  34. For mikegino: I would like to see how long your sorry ass would survive on a pitch-black carrier flight-deck at two-thirty in the morning with 25 to 30 jet fighters and bombers moving around you as you prepare for a launch or complete a recovery on the most dangerous three acres of space in the world. Collected a government paycheck, you bet. Earned every dime of it protecting your dumb ass and your families', you bet. While I and my Navy shipmates and other comrades in arms in the Army, in which my middle daughter served 6 years, the Air Force which my son just retired from after twenty-two years, NCIS, where my oldest daughter is an agent, and the Corps, where I don't have any relatives but have many good friends spend our lives and our families lives making sure you can spout off your ignorant opinions, You sir can go to hell and take your ingratitude for your county's protectors with you. SCREW YOU!!!!!!

  35. djeco... Man you guys have got to start watching FOX NEWS. You guys are just not up to date on things in the news and I am getting tired of educating you guys on news items.

    OK, one more time: That "song" that you refer to was made up by teachers and being sang by grade school children while they were in school. So much for indoctrination of students by their teachers.

  36. Hang in there bigdon... I understand how you are proud of your service and the service of your family. I guess that if one has not served, then they can't understand what the word "serve" really means. And if one has never been in harms way or never put other people in harms way, then no way can they understand.

    I guess that's why I get so upset when I hear what the Obama administration is doing to the guys in Afghanistan. It also happened to me in Vietnam. Either support them 110% or get them the hell out of there. You got those poor boys lying in foxholes under fire, thinking how their country does not care for them... I better quit before I get mad...

  37. Rush "Dummy" Limbaugh never served one day in the military or even the Boy Scouts of America yet is is a 'great American' hero? Please...the man is an uneducated jerk and a moronic fool... yes, uneducated because he flunked out of college and attened radio announcers school...Big F__K'n deal. So he can prounce his vowels big deal Rush...

    He has a big radio audience attracting the same kind of racist, political biggots that he is... Hitler also had big audiences and was the same kind of moron...

  38. 1donbig23: put down your Chief's coffee mug that hasn't been cleaned in 40 years, find a chair strong enough to support your weight and sit down, and then count to...five, ok. I did my 20 in the Marine Corps and I dispute your assessment of the most dangerous three acres in the world. Only an assdumb could be a Democrat after all of that service you brag about. Oh wait, now I know. Jimmy Carter probably was your role model, Mr. "Nucrear" engineer and Nobel laureate.

    P.S. I don't listen to Limbaugh and I sure as heck didn't vote for George Bush.

  39. mikegino: If you did indeed do your 20 in the Corps, then I apologize for the comments about the ingratitude. I could not imagine anyone with any military time putting down a fellow service- member for drawing a government check, knowing how small they actually were, and how little they did to make up for the sacrifice someone goes through and puts their family through during the deployments, etc. My cup is clean, I sit in a chair quite a bit to relieve the pressure on my disabled knee (flightdeck accident in 1971), when I go to the Commissary, which is about the only place I go except to for Doctors office,I walk with a cane, and I ride one of the electric carts, and no, I don't care for Carter. And we both agree on Limbaugh and Bush. Take care...............

  40. Ahhh... The world is right again...

    Wait a minute, along comes vsestini full of hate and name calling. He can't stand to allow his fellow man to achieve any accomplishment if that person has a different political view then himself. Not only does vsestine put Limbaugh down, he also puts down all those who listen to Limbaugh. Calling the listeners racists and bigots. Guess who really is the racist and bigot...

  41. the republicans have retreated to their

    strongholds in the south where they are

    conspiring to further destroy america.

    perhaps we can interest mexico in the purchase of

    a few southern states.

    america can use the money and we would be much

    better off without those southern states.

    from texas to georgia, from virginia to

    mississippi...nothing good comes out of the

    south.

  42. Hey Paul Bleeding Heart Feldman. Get your facts straight, get a job, then report back here.

    Another example of the need for an IQ test before voter registration.

  43. Maybe the Southern states that 7pesos mentions, would not mind succeeding from what's going on in Washington D.C. They would all probably be better off then the rest of the states under the current administration bent on sending us all to the poor house so to advance their socialist ideas...

  44. bigdon: let's wipe the slate clean. My experiences were mostly with the Gator Navy, although I was stationed at HQ Marine Corps (you folks call it the Navy Annex) when the Carterites came to DC. Those fools couldn't drive in the snow! I learned early on that the most important persons on a Navy ship were the Filipino stewards because they had access to the galley afterhours. Sorry about your knee. I've still got some metal in my head and leg that tells me when Mt. Charleston is going to get snow. FYI: I'm on a crusade against the demise of our country: I see the sick, lame, and crazy everywhere. I just returned from a week in China and the only people there sitting on their arses were the police. We need to turn around the mental attitude of this country soon or it all will be lost. Obama is not the answer, nor are his fellow Leftists who sold us out in Vietnam. Semper Fi Master Chief!

  45. The comments section of this newspaper, on almost every article, has become like a written text version of a Jerry Springer show on politics!

    In other words, an insult to any intelligent life.

    I have a friend whose elderly aunt is actually becoming anxiety-ridden and emotionally afraid of losing her medical care and life due to her daily viewing of the hate and lies of Fox talking heads.

    This poor woman is literally growing more emotionally disturbed each day due to this hideous display of mis-information and hatred of the president. Every attempt to stop her from watching increases her fears that she will miss something about someone coming to "get" her to take her away from her home and kill her for being elderly and on Medicare.

    The family should consider suing the network for causing so much fear and anxiety for this poor woman! And the posters on here perpetuate this type of fear. For pete's sake, george bush has left the building...get over it!

  46. "Except for the past twenty years, I protected the United States Borders as a front line armed U.S. Immigration and Border Protection Officer"

    Nice job.......

  47. I hear Rush got a contract to do Verizon commercials."Can you hear me now?"

  48. think larry from vegas is part of your visitor dropoff.he's got to be the idiot running the casinos these days, no heart, just give me your money jerk and get the heck outta here.

  49. Hey Larryvegas, you as a listener to Limbaugh proves how stupid you are, you are a clueless drone, really nothing else said.

  50. formervegas76 is at it again but makes no sense...

    cpo needs to go back and read a little more and he might get his facts right.

    But getting facts right does not matter to these two birds...

  51. Lets ask ourselves this question.

    Is Rush Limbaugh a reliable a great source for news/commentary?

    Lets look at our source a little bit and question it.

    Does he have an education? A college degree? An Advanced Degree in any kind of social science that makes him 'qualified'?

    What's his thesis about?

    Is he fair and balanced?

    Is he strongly biased?

    Let me know to those answers if you listen to him.

    Also, add Hannity and Glenn Beck and see your results!

  52. mr meow, the answers to all of your questions are all the same: COMPARED TO WHAT???

    Compared to NBC?
    Compared to MSNBC?
    Compared to ABC?
    Compared to AirAmerica?
    Compared to Huffington Post
    Compared to Daily KOS
    Compared to Think Progress
    Compared to Media Matters
    Compared to New York Times
    Compared to just about all of the news sites...

  53. That'a big list and the majority of writers and anchors for those companies, DO have the above, Larry.

    Answer my question, how about that? Oh, you can't!

    NBC: Brian Williams - GWU and CUA.
    MSNBC:
    Contessa Brewer is a magna cum laude graduate of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University.
    Christina Brown - Brown is a graduate of University of Phoenix
    Dara Brown - Yale University: Dara double-majored in Broadcast Journalism and East Asian studies. She also studied abroad through Yale at Oxford University.
    Diane Sawyer - Wellesley College.
    Charles Gibson - graduated from Princeton University.

    That's a sample of the many of those you provided. Let me see Hannity, Limbaugh, and Glenn Beck, come on, don't be shy!

  54. and no Larry, my answers are to my questions are not the same. I did compare and did not do the rest, as it's probably the same.

    Keith Olbermann, who many know he is a liberal, went to Cornell at age 16. Did limbaugh do that? Wait, he's a college drop out and failed his easy classes, what a pinhead!

  55. Olbermann is a Leftist, not a liberal. There's a difference catman.

  56. I am not going to answer you limp question about Russ Limbaugh, because I don't care...

    I have not listened to Limbaugh for over 20 years and I am not going to start now to answer you stupid questions.

    Why is it that lefties think that you have to have a educational pedigree before you will amount to anything?
    Are you stuck on titles?
    Are you all are elitists?
    Or maybe just a bunch of phonies...

    I do not judge a person by the degree of his/her education. I judge a person by their accomplishments and their sincerity.

  57. Liberals can be tolerated in a polite society, Leftists should be drawn and quartered.

  58. "I am not going to answer you limp question about Russ Limbaugh, because I don't care...

    I have not listened to Limbaugh for over 20 years and I am not going to start now to answer you stupid questions.

    Oh, but you like what he says, and approve of it, Right Larry? You're just a clone that repeats everything. If you don't listen to Limbaugh, you probably do to Faux news. Hannity or Beck, huh? Answer them! I dare you.

    "Why is it that lefties think that you have to have a educational pedigree before you will amount to anything?
    Are you stuck on titles?
    Are you all are elitists?
    Or maybe just a bunch of phonies..."

    Because it makes you a valid resource, rather than being an idiot who talks against something he doesn't know about: politics.

    "I do not judge a person by the degree of his/her education. I judge a person by their accomplishments and their sincerity."

    Of course. Lets admire Hitler. Stalin. Obama.

    HAHAHA!

  59. NBC: Brian Williams - GWU and CUA.
    MSNBC:

    Diane Sawyer - Wellesley College.
    Charles Gibson - graduated from Princeton University.

    What's your point? They studied, passed the exams and got degrees - are you under the impression that this has given them wisdom? I think you know better.

  60. mr meow.

    As I have mentioned several times on this site, I do watch FOX NEWS. I find it more balanced then CNN and the networks.

    Your rants are beginning to annoy me. You have nothing to say except for your hateful view on those who have a different political view then your own.

    Besides a person who judges others on their level of education doe not impress me one bit.

    Now what is it that you are daring me to do?

  61. Rush Limpbaugh has not produced anything, he has just consumed.
    Consumed a lot of drugs.
    Consumed a lot of wives.
    Consumed a medical device to hear after drugs ruined his hearing(cochlear implant was invented by government funded researchers.)
    Consumed a lot of cigars.
    Consumed a lot of food.

    Never produced a family.
    Never produced children.
    Never produced military service. (draft dodger)
    Never produced a college degree. (dropout)

    A a failed man, hoping for America to fail.

  62. exposure to knowledge doesn't mean you learned anything. Check the NFL, all those dunderheads attended college. please don't pick out the exceptions because they exist everywhere.

  63. Being elitist only means you're much better than the next person.

    This is why I don't support socialized health care, it will ruin the true people, the health care industry companies.

    I'd like to thank you, the republican common folk, for all your useful service.

  64. RUSH IS AN ASS !!! WE'LL BOYCOTT THE PAGENT !!!! WE'LL BOO HIS ASS !!

  65. Go to the pageant website, see who is behind it.

    Does Planet Hollywood support homophobia and racism??? Limpball should be put in the Black Book and banned from all gaming establishments, including convenience stores.

  66. Ah... Here's the nice guys from the left.. Full of hate for their fellow man...

    This is what happens when you have a different political opinion from these guys from the party of love...

  67. If you don't want to watch the pageant, then turn the channel to FOX NEWS. Maybe some of you all would learn a few manners.

    Man, there is just too much hate out there guys. Maybe some of you just have to hate someone. If it's not Bush then it's Rush.

    I thought the Liberals and Democrats were the party of love and understanding.. Instead, some of you guys have blood squirting out of your eyes...

    Russ Limbaugh is no big thing. He has made a ton of money doing his own thing... If you don't want to listen to him, do as I do, don't...

  68. Well if you don't have a problem with Rush, you're wrong. Are you white? because if so, you wouldn't, he loves us!

    If you're a minority, you know who Rush is, because you've heard his stuff whether you've wanted it or not.

    The lies he spews out is not good and ethical. You're supposed to inform, not misinform. That's what's wrong with him, everything else doesn't really matter. Besides, he does divide the country with the comments he says. Same thing goes with Ann Coulter and "perfectment of jews", Glenn Beck, and others. Not much from Hannity, one I don't "dislike". Oh, and CNN is much more balanced than Fox, who doesn't admit they're very conservative. They have Lou Dobbs...and other conservatives.

  69. I guess the moral of the story is that Mr meow does not like Russ Limbaugh and does not want others to like him either. Whatever...

    As for Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck, Hannity and Lou Dobbs. They are pretty polarizing and I don't spend much time watching their programs. I think you could label these people as entertainers not news reporters and you either like them or not...

    I watch FOX NEWS mainly in the mornings to get fair and balanced news stories. I am not too interested in listening to any one person's interpretation of anything.

  70. Debating Leftists is like debating Charles Manson.

  71. Debating right wingers is like talking to a child, don't won't understand anything because they're uneducated.

    Well, you can always make 'em feel inferior, 'cause they won't find a way to respond! :D besides the "oh well..." But you can always make 'em work for the top industry people. Think of them as pawns.

  72. mr meow is at it again. Telling people that don't agree with him that they are uneducated...

    I thinks that it is the meow who is unedacated. Cause if he was edacated, he wood not talk down to people...

  73. Aww, don't act like you don't do it!

    It's "uneducated" not "unedacated" and "would", not "wood"

  74. No, I am not going there...

    It's just way too easy...

  75. THAT WAS GREAT LARRY....HOOK LINE AND SINKER.LMAO

  76. I'M STILL LAFFING!!!

  77. It's kind of obvious when practically the whole party accuses you of being a facist/socialist/communist at the same time to not see the uneducated claims. You can't be all those at the same time.

    Take it one at a time and take a deep breath...yes.
    Now count to 10 and do it again.

    Also, socialized medicine? haha. We have socialized police forces, medicare, firefighters, public libraries, national parks. All socialist things. Should we get rid of them?
    Just because a thing is "socialist" doesn't mean it's bad and it's not a way to all those 3 things that people have no idea what they are.

    I call it Cold-War Phobia. They're still thinking of the red scare, omg!

  78. we gotta throw these guys outta the library and find them jobs.

  79. Mr Meow... I dated a girl once who had a socialist disease. I had to go see a socialist doctor who gave me some socialist shots. It was very painful and not a pretty sight. I learned then to stay away from those socialist girls.

  80. Can you even define "Socialism", let alone "politics"?

  81. I think this one went by him like a freight train...

  82. I remember Rush in an interview criticizing Clinton's economy.The interviewer ask Rush what would he do to fix it. He looked like a deer in head lights and struggled for a response.
    Rush is a man that knows how to push people's buttons.This had made him successful.He is an entertainer not a journalist. Something people on both sides can not distinguish. We need to take what comes out of his mouth with a grain of salt.Whatever his politics this should not ban him from owning an NFL franchise.

  83. But if the players don't want him to be the owner of an NFL franchise because of comments that were racially motive, I think they have the right to protest.

  84. If the players don't want him to be the owner of an NFL franchise because of comments that were racially motive, I think they have the right to QUIT.

  85. "If the players don't want him to be the owner of an NFL franchise because of comments that were racially motive, I think they have the right to QUIT."

    Or not sell to his group?

    I think you should quit posting. You're a Faux News/Limbaugh supporter, you prove it with your posts.

    You probably wouldn't know what racism is since chances are you haven't been through it. Oh wait, reverse racism! Ahhh, the Limbaugh play.

  86. Sorry mr meow, but I am not a Limbaugh man. Like I said, I haven't listened to him in over twenty years and it might be another twenty before I listen to him again. Just not my bag of tea...

    I don't know about reverse racism. My first wife tried to use reverse psychology on me, but I don't think it worked. She told me she was leaving me but I left her instead...

    Anyway, you were saying?

  87. "I don't know about reverse racism. My first wife tried to use reverse psychology on me, but I don't think it worked. She told me she was leaving me but I left her instead..."

    Good job.
