FWIW, Glenn Beck is urging listeners to give Obama a fair chance. This morning he was nearly screaming at a clown insisting Obama wasn’t a legal citizen or something.
But Colmes said they were just playing and he didn’t want Hannity put to sleep.
Limbaugh’s contract was recently renewed at more than double has previous income, from a measly $63,000 per day to $136,000 per day. In these hard economic times I can understand that after all a man has to eat and Rush is as he says one of the producers, one who makes the country work unlike the Obama supporters.
I wonder if his employers had anticipated a republican loss and increased ratings for disaffected conservative listeners.
His take on the loss is interesting the thought that the conservative philosophy could even be wrong is not even a consideration, the true conservative is never wrong. It almost sounds like a communist apparatchik apologizing for a collapsing system, the party is never wrong, true conservatism is never wrong.
It’s like switching sides at a baseball game, he will go from a President who does no wrong to a President who will do nothing right in the blink of an eye.
That’s pretty close to the traditional Alaskan monetary unit of a “wardrobe”.
Good for him. I may even start listening to his show if he keeps saying sensible things.
It’s a trap!
Colmes, son, your mom and I decided to give Hannity to a nice network with a big farm out in the country…
“Oh, that? Well, last night we thought we would plant a tree, but after we dug the hole we channged our minds, and just filled it back in…”
Here in So-Cal, there used to be “Impeach Bush” signs & petitions everywhere. Since those went nowhere, I doubt any fringe website will have any effect at all on Obama’s career.
Indeed, I suspect that the “Right-Wing Conspiracy”, which tried to remove Clinton from office, no longer exists. Naturally, I can’t prove this, but I strongly sense that the so-called “Corporate Illuminati” (or “Corpocrasy”, if you like) has suddenly switched sides – instead of supporting Conservativism (as they’ve done since Nixon) they are now supporting Liberalism, and ultimately Democratic Socialism.
Did anyone else out there notice the sudden Paradigm Shift? I sure as hell felt it, and it felt like a minor earthquake. (It happened in mid-October.)
We shall see soon enough how this all plays out.
Except there is a strong argument to be made that we haven’t had a conservative administration over the last 8 years. With all the RINOs that got elected and Bush turning his back on conservatism, it’s a very strong argument. What we’ve had is Democrat Lite.
When was the last “real” conservative administration, then?
And did they wear kilts?
If Americans rejected McCain’s 90% conservative why would a 100% conservative be any different? Who is 100% conservative. Rush is calling for a Stalin like purge, so who is going to the Gulag, he promised us a list did he ever read it?
I haven’t been able to listen to Rush this week (and that’s a pity because I’m sure it would have been highly entertaining) but if he did say that, I’m pretty sure he didn’t quite think through how that was going to sound. In any event, who, exactly, is supposed to be the Republican Stalin?
Yesterday Sean was talking to Ann Coulter, who incidentally sounded like a 1,000 year old woman on the radio, and some “Democrat” who made Zell Miller sound like a raging lefty. Who was that tool, and do they really expect us to believe that he’s providing balance to the discussion? His name was something like Goodell, Cadell? I don’t know.
Pat Caddell. Not a Democrat since 1988.
Wait, so when Caddell slams Obama or other Democrats and Sean says, “LOL, and this from a Democrat!!!” he’s lying? I’m so disillusioned.
(thanks for the link)
Reagan, perhaps?
That used to be my thought, until I realized that Reagan spent more money we didn’t have than any President until Bush II.
Perhaps the truth is that fiscal conservatism is like communism; a wonderful idea in theory, but completely unworkable in practice.
Rush and Hannity, Coulter etc. really crack me up, if your not a true conservative your a RINO. Rush was going to read a list of names to be purged from the party but I did not hear that part of the show. Conservatives didn’t lose because there were no real true conservatives. Seriously they do sound like communists complete with purges.
As far as Reagan goes they seem to forget RR was also expelled by true conservatives when he started negotiating with Gorby. One called him a useful idiot for the communists, but I don’t remember who called him that, (Howard Phillips??? Maybe).
