    yeah, it was a radio show where he spoke off the top of his head. even though, the government seems to have gotten their panties in a bunch off a soundbite.

    or he thinks that the policies being implemented and "succeeding" won't make the country prosper.

    i mean, i really don't give a shit about rush limbaugh, i just don't really have a problem with most of what he says here either. i do think it's funny that he uses democrats not giving bush a chance as justification for not giving obama a chance as if it were relevant.

    It isn't the government, it is the DCCC. There is a difference.

    Well, I guess it depends on what the definition of success is.

    Pol Pot's plans succeeded. They weren't good.

    The big gotcha is the Dems have been trying forever to pass the so-called fairness doctrine, which is a violation of the 1st amendment (like they care) and interference in private industry beyond reason.

    I know one post here has been made about it.

    Like I said, depends on your definition of success.

    They want to force stations carrying Limbaugh to carry 3 hours (or whatever it is) of some awful money losing show (i.e. air america). The effect is to stifle free speech (limbaugh).

    Turn the dial if you don't like him, it's what I do.

    I don't think I've heard his show in 15 years.

    Me neither. I don't think we are discussing whether Limbaugh should be on the air or not. No one has suggested he doesn't have a right to say whatever he wants to say.

    The fairness doctrine is the democrats' plan to silence guys like Rush Limbaugh.

    Read the debate over it, it's simple to find with google.

    Wow, it's like you haven't read the thread at all. Go back. Re-read. Re-think. I'm not a Republican, I'm not a conservative.

    You're welcome.

    You are either changing the subject or engaging in conspiracy theories. The fairness doctrine doesn't have anything to do with the subject at hand.

    That's the way these things go. We start talking about one thing and end up talking about another. Do I need to send you back to you embarrassing yourself regarding nuclear technology when the issue at hand was global warming?

    I didn't change the subject to nuclear technology in that thread, and you'll notice that Brian recanted his statements. The only one who should be embarrassed by that thread is you.

    I was never a Republican. I was a proud DLC Democrat until the party went to whackjobs on the left and I started studying economics seriously.

    Yeah it has everything to do with Democrats doing things like this to try to stifle guys like Limbaugh.
