- The Democrats are not making anything out of the Rush story that Rush and the Republicans did not create all on their own. The comments from the white house were made after being asked questions by reporters regarding Rush. Those questions were answered. The Republicans comfirmed what the Democrats said about Rush being the Republican party leader. When elected Republican leaders who say anything negative about Ruah have to go back and appoligize to him, then the conclusion is that he holds sway over those officials. That is sad when a private citizen is given that kind of power. When Rush challenged President Obama to a debate, telling how great he is because of all his wealth and that he would pick up the President in his plane and how President Obama does not have to pay for his own aircraft(this is something all Presidents get and Rush didn't seem to mind Bush having the perks of being President) or whatever the h*ll that loud mouth said, shows me that he is arrogant beyond belief. He is disgusting and I don't care what everyone thinks he was trying to say. He says things that are not true, does not back them up with facts and thinks that his wealth and money make him a better American than those who don't have a penny to their name. He is no better of a person or more of an American than any other American. He is a traitor to this country.

- He isn't the leader of the GOP...the liberal freaks in the media want to make a big deal out of nothing, Limbaugh bothers the liberal liars and the media just wants to fule something that bothers the libs. Limbaugh does make some good points and the truth always hurts and the libs amd media freaks know it. The libs voted for their paper god and he is failing and fast! I hope he fails in his economic BS! The lib media never tells the whole story, so what else is new! CBS and the rest of the liberal liars can go stick it!

But he's doing SUCH a good job of distracting people from the raid the liberals are making on government.....for that the liberals should be kissing his azz...wait...they already are...they've made him 100 times more important than he would be without all their smack. - Reply to this comment
- Rush is as much the leader of the Republican Party as Chris "I'm tingly" Matthews perfectly presides over the Democrat's Party. Neither one is any thing more than a big mouthed, opinionated entertainer of their party.

- Rush Limbaugh tussles over GOP leadership to promote hate with racism against Obama, is he actually religious?.
Didn't he realize that religion does not promotes hate and bigotry, perhaps he should team up with Al Queda!
He'd fit right in except he is 300lbs of brainless fat, but then again he does have the IQ of an onion so he would merge perfectly. - Reply to this comment
- The problem is not Rush...he is merely an entertainer.
The problem stems from people that listen to him, AND take him seriously.
Same with Ann Coulter. And Sean Hannity. And Michael Savage.
And 'Dr' Laura.
People like 'Rush' are purely self-promoting entities that have NO REAL INTEREST in functioning as public servants; i.e., working on our Countrys' behalf.
Doesn't everybody understand this? - Reply to this comment
- Rush, the Republican God, and they bow at his altar. Not one Republican in the senate or house has the stones to make their own decision without asking Rush first. Perfect face for the Republican party. A bloated, lying, dope-using, gas bag, without most of a human brain. Rush is the best thing that has happened to Democrats in decades.

Anyone supporting him is PROBABLY bigotted prejudiced?....gawd you appear to be a little bigotted, prejudiced and we should be concerned for your state of mind. - Reply to this comment
- If the libs can have their detractors then the right can have Limbaugh. He tells it like it is; THE WAY THINGS OUGHT TO BE. But he most certainly has the right to speak his mind just as any liberal. And he can be just as vocal as he wants
He loves it when people talk about him. He is thrilled with the attention. If he were non descript in his words then what would you guys have to bi#ch about? As long as you are ripping him, he will be there for another day. Which is fine with me, I happen to like him. - Reply to this comment

Right-wing reterds listen in awe
At this fat buffoon named Rush Limbaugh.
All rednecks, fascists, crackers, and racists
The preaching of this dummy they will not miss.
He?s big, fat, a real a$$hole
And has the Democrats, on quite a roll.
The Republican party is being led
By a big gasbag who is overfed.
Rush says he hopes Obama fails
In some nations he?d be in jail.
The RNC says no! no! no!
We?re not being led by Mr. Ego.
The Dems have become so full of glee
Big fat idiot embarrasses GOP.
The Whitehouse must be full of chuckles
At this pill-popping terd who drags his knuckles. - Reply to this comment
- Rush Limbaugh is the best thing that ever happened to President Obama. El Rusbo, a college drop-out from Southeast Missouri State University, has never taken an economics 101 class but this doesn't stop "dittoheads" from seeing him as an expert. I am an independent who trends toward voting republican. However, a blowhard like limbaugh has turned me off to the party...particularly the in light of the way they cow to him. There are conservative voices that can make the case - George Will, David Brooks - but they are "intellectuals" who are scorned by the republican base. Better to listen to Rush than to read or think. I have a conservative friend who is unemployed. He is happy to cash those unemployment checks that were extended 13 weeks due to the stimulus package. Perhaps he should refuse that socialist welfare money and instead take comfort in a lecture from Rush about the evils of government hand-outs, the perfection of free markets, and the need for greater personal responsibilty.

- America will not become a socialist state under Obama or anyone else , there are to many real Americans that won't let it happen.
Obama must be real thin skinned to be worried about Rush. But if you get everyone to focus on Rush it will take their mind off yourself so nobody will notice that you are not doing anything to help he economy. Let the ones that fail fail , business or individual .
Rush said he hoped Obamas socialist programs fail and I hope so to ,but if he can come up with something that will work,I'm fine with it. Like all mainsteam news shows they never tell the whole story , that way they can turn a mole hill into a mountain . The news media can make and break a person if they want to and they do it all the time .
I'm a trailer dweling truck driver and I pay for MY OWN DAMN INSURANCE 100%.
I'm a trailer dwelling truck driver and I pay for MY OWN DAMN MORTGAGE 100%.
I'm a trailer dwelling truck driver and worked for everything I have with no hand outs from anyone , so why should I pay for somebody that bit off more than they knew they could chew ? - Reply to this comment
- A massive revolt against Socialism is forming, and by April 15th, the death-grip that the Liberals have on the American economy will be broken.

- CBS News, you are sick, sick, sick. Never once did you show what Rush really said. You're still pulling the same old tricks. Like Rush, I also want Obama to fail if his goal is destroy America through his socialist policies. I hope you (Katie Couric & CBS News) fail. You deserve the Amercia you are helping to create.

- I now see how the news is manipulated by the ghosts upstairs. The cowards, I will watch CBS. Pause during the commercials. Then compare with a real news station. You are a disgrace to broadcasting.

- Limbaugh's drug-induced rantings capture the attention of trailer dwelling truck drivers who don't vote. Limbaugh is a total non-issue in a real election, but propelling him to the leadership of the republican party is a brilliant move by the democratic leadership. Keeping Limbaugh, Hannity, Joe the 'Not a Plumber', and Palin in the spotlight will guarantee an even greater landslide for the democrats in 2010 and 2012. Republican voters with even the slightest hint of intellect will step back and shake their heads.

- WJR Radio out of Detroit was a class act when I was growing up with radio personallities like Karl Haas and JP McCarthy.
Now it is the home of Classless Blow-Hards like Lush Limpstick, Sean Hanity and Doctor (my a$$) Laura Schlessinger. - Reply to this comment
- Rush Limbaugh is less useful than a can of Bacon Fat.
...yet he contains more Fat than a can of Bacon Fat.
This is a Conundrum NOT worth wasting time to Ponder. - Reply to this comment
