Beware of Limbaugh, warns Obama

It looks to me like those from the Republican Party that survived the November elections were probably better off losing seeing as their opinions and votes are almost as useless as a knife in a gun fight. According to the Media, Obama warned the Republicans on capital Hill to stop listening to Rush Limbaugh if they want to get things done. If by “getting things done” he means getting what they want, then those Republicans he was warning can only be 1 of 2 things to be able to actually listen to Obama and “get things done”:

Cowards or traders

So Mr President, where is the freedom to listen to any talk show host of your choosing? Where is the freedom to disagree with your policies? Where is the freedom of choice? Is this the hope everyone who favors Obama is looking for? Do you truly believe that the only way to accomplish anything in this country is to silence the opposition as oppose to having equal rights to object? That kind, caring, charismatic person everyone keeps saying Obama is seems to be fading away little by little ever since Obama was inaugurated. So far I have heard  nothing but put downs towards the Republican members. I don’t think I have ever heard Bush speak to anyone in that manner. Bipartisan does not seem to be part of Obama’s plans to fix this country. My way or the high way seems more like Obama’s style. Republicans are not being asked to help find ways to fix the country, they are being told to agree with the Democrats because they need to get along with them in order to pass Obama’s policies.

Obama may as well have a filibuster proof Senate, at this point, I see no stopping the Left. I can only hope that the Republicans do not listen to Obama and chose freedom over defeat. At least when Obama’s true intentions come out and everyone finally asks themselves “what have we done?” They will have only themselves and the Democrats to blame. This is gonna be a very interesting 4 years. And JU will have all of it collected so that later on we can say “I told you so”.

As I mentioned in Donna's article, blame is exactly what they elected Obama for.  He promised to bring change, and when he doesn't, the fact that they as individuals changed absolutely nothing can be nicely covered by "well he said HE was going to do it."  He's the perfect scapegoat for a loser, and that's why he was elected.  We have a lot of losers these days.

It won't take long before they try to bring back the Fairness Doctrine.  Obama saying this just shows how much of an idiot he really is. 

What it really showsw is how Obama is afraid of real conservatism.

It's a political strategy to neuter the opposition.  Sadly, some RINO's believe it.

Did you read this morning what Obama said yesterday to GOP Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona when he questioned Obama on one of his proposals? 

Obama replied that an election had been won in November and that "I won.  I will trump you on that." 

I've never heard such arrogance before and so soon into his Presidency no less.

No, that's irrational & sophomoric.  The left fought tooth & nail to undermine Bush throughout his 2 terms because it believed his policies were wrong, even after the American people settled the 'legitimacy' issue by re-electing him.  I believe Bush failed because he was not vigorous enough as a leader, accepted political setbacks too casually and allowed the assholes in the media who valued elitist style more than substance to cower him.  Currently, I just hope the country survives BO.  I believe BO's policies & actions will harm our economy and make us more vulnerable to enemies who wish to destroy us.  I will therefore encourage the political opposition to fight tooth & nail to undermine BO because I believe his policies are wrong.

What a great system we have here. No matter who's in power half the population is going to fight to make sure they fail. 

I'm curious to see what they can do without opposition. I'm a liberal so something is always better than nothing to me.

I guess we're going to find out since Republicans have been neutered for the next couple of years at least.

It's pretty obvious that liberals can dish it out, but certainly can't take it. 

Lets look at the point Limbaugh has made.  Obama is a socialist, Obama has bad economic ideas.  Why would we want them to succeed?

The only way America can get out of this mess is to cut government, cut spending.....the exact opposite of what a liberal government will do.

what are you talking about ???? your bias and nonesense is blinding you and clouding your memory...

I challenge YOU to point out that I wished that Bush fails... i pointed out his policies' errors and the consequences of his stupid actions ... Never ever wished that he fails ... and no Dem ever wished that either ... I am talking about the main-stream Dem's here not the fanatics.

you really have to realize that what you are saying is sooooo self-destructive. Disagree as much as your heart desires ... but wishing his failure so you can say "i told you so" is insane and self destructive to all of us.

You accused him of what you yourself did ... you didnt even catch my point .... both you and him asked people not to listen (to someone) .... didn't you do that in your article?

So how does his statement differ in meaning from yours?

Your bias and clouded thinking is very obvious ....

Totally false .... in fact a lot of Dem blamed their own leaders for supporting, going along or being silent regarding many of Bush's actions and policies...

tell me one thing they undermined him in it ..... they even voted with him after they pointed out their objection ... does Hillary's votes on taxes and war remind you?.. ..

most of us objected and pointed out the stupidity in his actions ... but never wished that he fails ... we hoped against hope that we were wrong ..... always .. always hoping that he somehow can miraculously pull it off....

Does the so-called left-wing MSM's silence and  promotion of his cooking of intelligence to support the war on Iraq reminds you of undermining his efforts? Does the Dem's vote for it and for his tax cuts? does their vote on illegal suveillance?

so when and how did they undermine him?

Falsehoods gets you no where

Disagree as much and as forcefully as you wish ... but wishing that he fails????

we tried tax cuts, cow boy policies, deregulation, greed, corruption and impotence for 8 years and you see the results ... you still dont want to try something else?

not only that ... you wish that anything else fails?

what a mentallity !!!!!!

Yes, I hope he fails.  His policies are dangerous and will make the economy worse.  Obama failing will be good for America.

Tax cuts aren't the problem, they are the solution.  If you actually do research you will see that government income increased after the tax cuts.  The problem was government spending which can be blamed on both parties. Obama wants to increase spending at an incredible rate.  That's not change, that's just doing 10 times more than Bush did.

As has been shown many times before, deregulation was not the problem.  Lets look at people like Barney Frank who pushed mortgage companies to give loans to people who obviously couldn't afford them.  Why?  Well because they poor, the typical democrat voter.  Notice how Frank and Dodd still haven't been held accountable.

Let's be honest; Obama won simply because millions of black people---people who had likely never voted before, and might never vote again, beyond 2012, of course---turned out to vote for a black man. They didn't look into his background, his beliefs, his record (what there was of it), nothing. He's black, and that's enough. If he'd been just another white guy, he never would have made it through the first few primaries.

Millions of young and younger people---again, people who had likely never voted before, and perhaps never will again---turned out to vote for a man whom their PC culture says they should vote for. For a man who simply wasn't Bush---whom their hysterical PC media says was evil. Again, they had no idea who or what Obama is or was, but he was a minority, and he wasn't Bush. That's enough.

But, all this is moot, now, of course, and he has power to defend, now. I fear, somehow, that oppositon will not be quietly tolerated by the Obama Regime. He also has his radical comrades in the House and Senate, to rubberstamp everything he says and does.....and he, them. I really am afraid that the next four years will be a very rough ride for the American Republic, though, thanks to our leftie media, you won't hear anything of it.

Obama will get breaks and passes the way Bush got ridiculous, even dangerous, obstacles and pointless, spiteful criticism. We're going to need a strong candidate in 2012.

You guys just love talking to yourselves in your own little world, insulated from reality. Face it, you're simply a whacked out segment of the 22 percent of this country that’s represented by Bush's Final Approval Rating. No reasonable person would give any credence to the rabid drivel that's spouted on this site on a daily basis other than as an interesting source of comic relief. You guys are funnier than most sitcoms on TV today.

But go ahead and take your shots at the occasional liberal that wanders in every once in a great while. It’s really very difficult to be insulted by someone when pretty much everything that comes out of their mouths makes you laugh.

[edit] Oh, and as far as Rush Limbaugh, I wouldn't really know. Those of us with jobs that actually work for a living don't have the opportunity to listen to an afternoon talk show or other such soap operas. I mean the guy made himself deaf with his drug addiction, what could be funnier than that? Oh yeah, I know. The holier than thou crowd idolizing a former coke addict/president. Now *that's* funny. [/edit]

I didn't approve of Bush in his final ratings, simply because he wasn't a conservative.  Funny how you mention people are insulated from reality, when the average Obama voter has no clue of what they voted for.

I wonder if Obama ever listened to Rush's show? I've only heard it a few time myself, but he makes some interesting points. I'm always tickled by those that warn agaist those they never watch (or listen to).

There is a positive out of the election. Maybe now black defendants will stop complaining about being tried by a jury of their peers (an all white jury) since more minorities registered to vote and are now eligible for jury duty. See a conservative that found a positive from this election.

I have a job, and I get to listen to talk radio for most of the day. Just lucky that way, I guess.

Rush Limbaugh "made himself deaf with his drug addiction"? That's a new one on me; I thought it was genetic; had something to do with deterioration of the tiny hairs that respond to sound waves. But anyway, you really show the smug, shallow disregard with which you rank-and-file libs view those who oppose them. 

On the other hand, when Teddy Kennedy first came down with his brain tumor, Rush made a wonderful, heartfelt speech hoping for his recovery and asking for prayers for Kennedy and his family.

Say what you want; El Rushbo has class, as do most conservatives, especially as compared to liberals. Has something to do with actually believing in something of values and substance, I guess, rather than in nothing of merit.

The greatest example I can think of, when it comes to liberal callousness and lack of class and decorum, was the guy on the DU, who expressed his extreme pleasure over the death of Reagan by cracking a bottle of bubbly he'd kept in the back of the fridge, in long anticipation of just that occasion. What a jerk.

"The holier than thou crowd idolizing a former coke addict/President".

Well, Obama sold coke as a young man; you clearly forgive that. Yet, you refuse to forgive Bush----a man who openly admitted his addiction, as opposed to Obama, who dodged his days as a pusher. Hey---maybe he sold some to Bush back then?

You people disgust me, and that's one reason I oppose you.
