    A nuclear powered Iran.

    Islamofascists are the worst of the worst.

    So you're not allowed to critique this country or its leaders? This type of narrow-mindedness just galls me. Just like the people who say Michael Moore or Rush Limbaugh are anti-American because they question where our country is going.

    Your reply seems a bit over the top. Do you know what the term "despot" means? If so explain how we are almost there.

    I am utterly shocked. SHOCKED, I tell you.

    Yes I do. I also know what the term "despotism" means, which is the term I employed.

    It's been explained more than once. You won't listen. Your false witness of Limbaugh's statement is a case in point.

    That's not what he said. He said he hopes Obama fails. I do too. If Obama fails, then a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, will abide a little longer on the face of the earth. America will succeed.

    If Obama succeeds, America falls.

    Obama is not America and his socialist agenda is evil we should all want it to fail. Rush knows what patriotic is Obama is lost on the subject.

    Statements like this shows you know nothing about Rush other than the rheotric you hear from others. And I doubt that Obama has given even a 100th of what Rush has given to the poor and to our soldiers from his personal earnings.

    And as usual, you would be wrong. I listen to many of Rush's rants myself. Only someone blind to the truth would support someone like Rush.

    Total speculation on your part. I would speculate that Rush has given more to his dope dealer than President Obama has given to his.

    China by far. They have a growing economy, large, well trained military with nuclear forces, and hold lots of our debt. North Korea and Iran could be taken out with a few missles.

    Thanks for the information about President Obama. The problem is Rush is not President.

    So I guess you're entirely comfortable with a president who has given money to his dope dealer. Rush has no real power except what people give to him. President Obama has the nuclear codes! Rush was hooked because of pain. The President used for recreation... So you tell me who's worse?

    So you claim but your use of illogical reasoning when you speak of him shows your ignorance.



    Not speculation at all. First it is a statistical fact that conservatives out give, from their personal income, to charities than to liberals. Second, It is a well known fact that Rush has started two charity organizations and gives quite regularly from the millions he makes in a market where liberal ideas cannot compete. Your assertion as to my speculation is just itself speculation.

    Well, a lot of folks listen to Kieth Olbermann, who wouldn't have a show if it wasn't for Rush Limbaugh....if Kieth says he's unpatriotic.....

    I vote America, because there are some people who hate the country in charge of it.....

    Baloney. You don't listen to him. Don't say you do.

    Why are you fixated on Rush? He is not the subject of this op, unless Rush became a country in the last few days. So just what is it that you are concerned about other than being an apologist for the Democratic Party? By the way, I would sugget going back to high school and retaking American History and Civics.

    Think what you want. I have I Heart Radio, so I am able to listen to both the right-wing shows, like Rush, which is available on radio where I live, and I am able to listen to progressive stations like Air America, which is not broadcast where I live.

    I listen more to Air America, but I do listen to the right-wingers some each day to see what the nut-jobs are up to.

    Again, baloney. If I had a nickel for every libbie who told me they hear Rush first-hand, I'd be rich. And Rush is available where most people live, but I know for a fact only the self-employed, like me, and stay-at-home wives listen to him on a regular basis.

    But I simply do not believe you. I doubt that you listen to him, except when Kieth Olbermann (who makes me wanna puke) has him on his show, which is quite often.

    I probably listen to Rush more than you do. I need to hear your marching orders.
