Quoting: Anonymous Coward 627176This is the first time in my memory that the GUBMINT has specifically targeted a PRIVATE AMERICAN CITIZEN. I am sure you are proud, shill. Doesn't Rush just SAY what the Republicans are thinking? He's their poster child because he can get away with saying what they are thinking. Being a private American citizen with rights to free speech is what it's all about, right? He's having his cake and eat it too. He laughs all the way to the bank, but if it embarrasses some in his party, maybe they ought to stop supporting his rhetoric and fess up that he does not represent them. Some are trying and then backing down. It's a matter of who has the guts to support him because he does represent their own ideologies, and who wants to distance themselves because they don't support his ideologies, imo. It's all good.

Talk pieces like Limbaugh only serve to create more "followers" They would just as soon march America into a dictatorship and probably feel that things had improved as a result. They have the mentality of old-time religion out on a crusade, they proselytize, and revel in being so loyal to a cohesive group of like thinkers. The funny/sad thing is that they are soooo submissive to their leaders that they will believe and do virtually anything they are told. Sadly they will not let up and they will not go away. Like John Dean and Bob Altemyer say, we need "Conservatives with a Conscience". True conservatism that respects the rule of law. That does not find comfort in leaders like W that never really deliver. That stop trusting those that cannot be trusted. That put away their prejudice; that drop their mean spirited, narrow-minded intolerance; and stop trying to bully people. That realize their inconsistencies and contradictory beliefs, and start thinking critically to deal with the fear that has been driven into them. |

ITS GOOD FOR RUSH, BUT NOT GOOD FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. Heres a telling quote... "Paul Begala, a close friend of Carville, Greenberg and White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, said they found Limbaugh’s overall ratings were even lower than the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s controversial former pastor, and William Ayers, the domestic terrorist and Chicago resident who Republicans sought to tie to Obama during the campaign." Rush Limbaugh is SO Anti-Ronald Reagan/Anti-Barry Goldwater its sad... the Republican Party is capable of SO much more. |

These are exemplary ideals that don't create 'good ratings', however, but certainly would go a long way in making America a better place for our children to grow up.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 483402 United States 03/04/2009 12:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I lean Libertarian too, it is the opposite of Authoritarianism. The inherent problem with Authoritarianism is... WHO is the authority? There is no shortage of groups demanding deference to THEIR authority... groups who would be VIOLENTLY OPPOSED to deferring to the authority of a different group. If we ALL are opposed to deferring to the authority of a different group... doesn't that mean we all agree it is wrong? Libertarianism seems to be the only path that allows someone to CHOOSE to be a part of an authoritarian group without the need to FORCE others who do not join to do the same. I oppose all authoritarians, left or right. |

Even though I voted for Obama, I also voted for Reagan, and consider myself "conservative" in idealogy. A group of us veterans started calling ourselves "constitutionalists" because of where the GOP was going. They are no longer "conservative". That word has no meaning today, in the context of our politics. The phrase "Goldwater Republican" has no meaning. I still hope for a conservative party, truly concerned about our country, and not their God damned agenda. |
