A truce between Limbaugh and Steele

OK Libbies....here is you chance to slam the smartest man in America (Rush)....you know you will.
Don't you wish your president was this smart?

Limbaugh should be praised, not denounced, for his courage in stating that he wants Obama to fail. Obama's neocomm policies will devastate this country, and all good Americans should want Obama to fail to implement them.

I want Obama to fail, miserably, spectacularly. And he is.

I don't get how Limbaugh has any credibility after his drug issues. If he followed his own advice about drug addicts and users, he'd be locked up in jail and the key would have been thrown away long ago.

Yes, all Rush Limbaugh has to do is yammer into a microphone and get ratings. Actual elected officials and party officials have to do their job or they can get fired and/or not elected. Bring the minority party now, that means the GOP has to work with the Democrats to get their priorities through somehow.

im scared by the right wing zealots who hide behind strange screennames on boston.com and actually believe the mess they spew...you guys remind me HBO's new documentary, "Right America, Feeling Wronged", frightening indeed....

Obama will fail. No one can fix the mess the Republicans and Bush left us with!

Rush, the smartest man in America? You have to be kidding me. Clearly you need to get out more and definately read more. Even if you don't like Obama, calling Rush smart is like calling Britney Spears a great mom.

I have listen to the that stuttering professed know it all and I have to laugh . He seems to be the leader ( maybe a dictator ) of the Republican party and he certainly has the talent as Laura Ingall has to incite people They do a lot of vicious name calling which is a big disservice to their party . Where was their outrage when Pres. Bush brought this country to the state we are now in ? I hope they don't have a complete nervous breakdown if Pres Obama is successful. God Bless this country and heaven help us if the likes of these two hate mongers continue to destroy the hopes and dreams of the American people

Rush Limbaugh is an entertainer who, regrettably, has been chosen as the voice of the low-brow Republican (categorically not claiming all Republicans are low-brow). It's downright hilarious how submissive Republican politicians are to him. The pill-popping gasbag laughs all the way to the bank.

Rush is a blowhard and an entertainer, and has no more substance than an angry teenager. He's also a drug addict, and he avoided service in Vietnam because--no lie--he had a boil on his backside.

If this is the leadership of the Republican party, the GOP is truly doomed.

Odumba,
I don't think you understand what failure actually is...but here are some examples:
8 years of Republican rule, 2 ongoing wars, an economy that's in the toilet, Katrina, the US Attorney firings, Abu Grahib, Guatanomo, the Valerie Plame affair, the Scooter Libby pardon, the criminal acts of Vice President Cheney, AG Gonzales, and Karl Rove, and the lies that led us to the unnecessary war in Iraq. The cronyism that led to "Brownie", and Monica Goodling. All of this was an unmitigated failure. I doubt that anything Obama will do will ever measure up to this mess.
In fact, I'd love for someone to point out a significant success the Bush administration has had. Obama has been President for 2+ months. Why not give him a chance like I did when Bush first started?

I am old enough to remember Jimmy Carter who was directly responsible for Ronald Reagan. For that reason, I call the Carter adminstration a success. Similarly, I very much want Obama to be a success.

With this said, we await the new Reagan to return the "grown-ups" to power. Could we already be listening to him?

Glad to see the republicans have a leader who caves to an entertainer. Way to turn things around Dicky.

So Far Obama has shown me what I knew he would . Nothing. I voted for him because I didn't want McCain. But Obama seems lost. WE NEED TO STOP SPENDING PEOPLE!!. It's not the answer . Bush was doing it . And Obama is out spending Bush.

Your apology was on the right track. Republicans need to find a more moderate spokesperson. Rush Limbaugh is so out of touch with the working middle class he is not even cognizant of it! My mother is an 85 year old moderate and she is the one who told me how disgusting Rush Limbaugh is! He is talking about failure of our childrens future for God's sake. I have two children - a 14 and 20 year old. I have put myself through college, I am a responsible homeowner, and registered to vote. I just can't even imagine someone standing in front of educated and working class people and wish for failure of our presidents attempt to turn the economy around. This is not what I worked hard for all my life. I want a decent future for my children. Rush Limbaugh's statement just made me sick to my stomach. Limbaugh needs to apoligize to you , not the other way around.

Rush Limbaugh, and others of his ilk, are cartoonish jackals who are accountable to no one.

Their desire to see this country ruled by a single party system is fulfilling itself as they speak...

Obooboo will fail because his marxist central planning policies have been proven to fail, both in theory and in practice. The mess that we are in has three elements to its origins. 1) Bush (with the assistance of the then pseudo-leadership) pushed for and signed into law the prescription drug benefit plan. This tax and spend what we dont have program sold out the real Republican party to get re-elected. The real Republican party historically were at least not fiscal retards. 2) The markets (both stock and credit) began to discount Obooboo winning the election six months before he was inaugurated. Markets are smart which is why they have been selling off of late. 2) The Obooboo party (Wank, Piglosi, etc) pressed banks for a quarter century to underwrite mortgages to people who were not credit-worthy. Now all of those banks are in trouble. 3) The democrative leadership has no idea how to create jobs. They only know how to fuel consumption programs for people who do notcontribute to the growth of wealth in this great nation. It is why Oboobooo will fail and why the Obooboo party will be shown the door in a Reagan revolution.

"Senate votes to keep thousands of Earmarks in budget." Guess they dont mind making the emperor look like an idiot. So much for the Hopie Changie crowd. Lard her up boys. Believe me, Obooboo's tax people will be coming after EVERYONE.

Whomever the geniuses are who are reading and not allowing my posts are absolute buffoons. This sort of censorship is the reason people like Rush are as popular as they are and the reason the Boston Glob is going to go the way of the dodo. If you dont allow opposing views, as the lack-of-"Fairness Doctrine" commands, you dont have democracy which is exactly what the Liberal Commies in the Commiewealth of Massachusetts want.

typicalwhiteperson: We had a president as smart as Limbaugh, for the past 8 years. We'll spend a generation digging out of the rubble.

Next question?

holden : you mean they're not allowing the post I just read?

Fascinating...

J March, There are two magic words to ward off all those masquerading right wing zealots. Fairness Doctrine.

It seems to me that when Bush was president that wishing failure on America was considered treason. But since he managed the trick (national failure) himself in 8 short years, could it be that GOP is desperately afraid that any sort of improvement at all might be achieved?

A sorry bunch of losers, and left well out of the process thank god. Bipartisan is only desirable when both parties have useful ideas (even opposing ones) and it is clear that the only idea in GOP minds is "no". Without Bush to issue orders they are helpless and useless.

And by the way, I disagree completely with Steele's original statement... Druggie Gasbag Limbaugh isn't at all entertaining.

I am no fan of Rush thats for sure. But Rush didnt just dish out $2 BILLION DOLLARS TO ACORN

Can someone please explain why anyone from the US government would give $2 billion dollars of tax payer money to these people who are known for nothing other than gross voter fraud ?

Gee thanks Obama
