Rush Limbaugh’s whole life is a walking blunder.
Marriages…drug abuse….doctor shopping….

Oh yea, he’s a great role model.

The Pubs need to learn that anything they say will be taken out of context and spewed over and over by the liberal lame stream media and the corrupt regime in the WH!!

Rush, you gave 1.2 million to a SuperPac, so you have no room to talk.  

Mitt is the same person  who took a quote from McCain that Obama repeated and used it in an attack add.  You had no problem with that. Romney made a  stupid comment for a person running for office.

Refreshing, the non-water carrying and all, Mr. Limbaugh,

fruit salad— rushbo, sean-o , billo, scarborough, boner-o, mcconel-o, walsh-o,newt-o, priebo!!!!!!!

 Thank god we have the right wing media who would NEVER stoop so low.

Romney has given Obama about 10-15 quotes like that in the last 6 months. 

He’s going to get light up in the general. 

Lol!! Mittens is getting attacked from both sides for his ignorant comment!!

Way to go Mittens!!

“Sauce for the goose, now sauce for the gander,” eh?

I am so happy to be a liberal-I don’t have to spend 3 hours a day listening to a thrice-divorced bloated drug addict telling me what to think and who to hate.

When your party’s best hope even has Rush attacking you, you know it’s really bad. There’s always next election, republicans.

Draft dodging….

He’s a role model AND a real patriot.

i agree their focus should be on president obama, not the myriad of dangerous issues facing our crumbling and rapidly declining american society

Right…like the President didn’t put in his time on the business end of a crack-pipe. Please….

Rush is right once again. Let the poor freeze in the dark. Or if they get desperate enough and break into a store for a loaf of bread, we can throw the poor in prison or execute them. I am more worried for our millionaires and the fact that they may have to give up their Cayman Island tax shelters. That is an absolute outrage and completely anti American and anti capitalism.

Rush Limbaugh for President ! Yeah!

Here is a man who makes millions by sitting on his fat ass basically spouting his old opinions. He is a parasite since he produces or contributes exactly nothing to the country’s output. He doesn’t realizeit but it would make no difference to the US’s wellbeing or economy if he disappeared tomorrow. In other words, Rush Limbaugh contributes no more than a welfare recepient to the system, but he benefits enormously from it. Someone like him prospers precilsy because the system is absurd.

In terms of the politics, Romney would love to use race baiting but knows it would be a disaster in the general election. Following this obese wind bag would be a gift to Obama.

From the right, Romney is being attacked for the lack of caution, similar to the $10,000 bet at the debate or the “I like to fire people” segment of a sentence.  Jonah Goldberg exclaimed,What is wrong with this guy?
And there are plenty of things one could say to defend Romney on the merits of what he says here. But great politicians on the morning after a big win, don’t force their supporters to go around defending the candidate from the charge that he doesn’t care about the poor. They just don’t.
John McCormack at The Weekly Standard made a different, but more significant criticism, that Romney’s prescription was not conservative:
But Romney’s remark isn’t merely tone-deaf, it’s also un-conservative. The standard conservative argument is that a conservative economic agenda will help everyone. For the poor, that means getting as many as possible back on their feet and working rather than languishing as wards of the welfare state….Had Mitt Romney picked up his conservatism sooner, perhaps he would know these arguments by heart.
Everyone has missed what was wrong with Romney’s statement.
It’s not that Romney hates the poor (he doesn’t) or that he’s tone deaf (he is), it’s that he was playing class warfare, belittling the rich to score political points.  He can get away with it, because he’s rich.  But it’s still class warfare.
Romney used similar language about the rich back at a debate in October.
And so if I’m going to use precious dollars to reduce taxes, I want to focus on where the people are hurting the most, and that’s the middle class.  I’m not worried about rich people.  They are doing just fine.  The very poor have a safety net, they’re taken care of.  But the people in the middle, the hard-working Americans, are the people who need a break, and that is why I focused my tax cut right there.
Bernie Goldberg noted how similar the formulation was to Obama:
And the other night at the debate, Newt Gingrich asked Romney why his capital gains tax cuts only benefit Americans whose incomes are below $200,000. Romney replied that the “rich can take care of themselves,” and that he’s concerned about “the middle class.”  Barack Obama couldn’t have said it any better.
If Newt had played the middle class against “the rich” we’d be hearing howls from the conservative media how he was attacking from the left.  But I digress.
Update:  Mark Steyn (h/t Ragspierre in the comments):
After half-a-century of evidence, what sort of “conservative” offers the poor the Even Greater Society?  I don’t know how “electable” Mitt is, but, even if he is, the greater danger, given the emptiness of his campaign to date, is that he’ll be elected with no real mandate for the course correction the Brokest Nation in History urgently needs. In last Monday’s debate, Newt said he wasn’t interested in going to Washington to “manage the decline”. Mitt’s just told us that he’s happy to “manage the decline” for the poor – but who knows who else?

Romney can’t go a day without a gaffe.  What a wonderful world if the GOP had not inherited the Dixiecrats and got fixated on the religious right. Gerald Ford was in favor of universal healthcare, with the public option.  Today all they talk about is gay marriage, even with the problems facing us now. 

Gotcha journalism at it’s worst here; again, mediatie is misquoting Mitt, yhou are taking a single phrase from a sentence and making it a complete thought….even though you then back track and talk about what he really meant.  This is nothing more than gotcha journalism.  I’m glad that Dan is proud o fyou for getting more visitors here, but honestly mediate staff – this is just plain dishonest.  Getting clicks for dishonesty is nothing to be proud of.

what is worse that or…. Rape, Lying Under Oath,Open Marriage, Draft Dodging …bill clintons walking blunder :b

word salad like some do without a machine ;)

They have done great work on the topic. The original article contained all relevant context. Don’t hate.

Social Darwinism is nearly 200 years old. It like advocating for alchemy.

Newt Gingrich – 1993 Meet the press

 
I am for people, individuals -— exactly like automobile insurance -—
individuals having health insurance and being required to have health
insurance. And I am prepared to vote for a voucher system which will
give individuals, on a sliding scale, a government subsidy so we insure
that everyone as individuals have health insurance.

I knew the safety net business was going to be right up Rush’s alley and would provoke exactly this response

But not to worry Rush, Mitt threw that last “I’ll fix it” part in an obvious attempt to recover from the previous statement. Mitt obviously believes the v. poor is Obama’s constituency & that he need not worry about working for their vote

Breathtaking!  He makes millions sitting on his fat ass spouting and you are doing it for free.  Maybe you should be paying the same taxes he’s paying into “the system,” or, 1/1000th of the charity he donates to, but, could you afford it?

Ignorance is bliss and you must be one happy gal.

Rush, get on board the Mitt Train, Romney’s remark is a snoozer. What’s shocking is CNN actually made some news.

Romney and Limbaugh, two perfect symbols of the callous and out-of-touch wingnuts.

And then Limbaugh called upon people of all economic classes to please fetch him some hillbilly heroin. Fatty needs his Oxy fix!

The only time “Piles” Limbaugh cares about the “very poor” is when he needs a housekeeper to fill an oxycontin script for him, or he wants to use some “very poor” sex slaves down in the Dominican Republic (or was it Haiti?).

“Piles” Limbaugh was:- married four times;- Ruined his hearing and lost his teeth by using un-prescribed cracked Oxycontin – Google “opiate hearing loss”;- Dodged the draft to VietNam because of “extreme anal cysts”.  Is “extreme anal cysts” just doctor speak for “Baboon ass”?;- stopped at customs with a thousand un-prescribed Viagra tablets coming back from a “sex resort” in the Dominican Republic.
Limbaugh’s most amazing trick is that he has convinced millions of lower class Americans that the ultra rich shouldn’t have to pay taxes.  This moral disaster making over 57 million a year is a working class hero and a Republican icon!

Well Tina, There is a little thing in this world called the wheel, and What goes around, Comes around, And Mitt and His minions are very good at taking things out of context and turning them into attack adds.

You would think with all the experience that Mitt has in doing exactly that to His opponents, He would know better than to shove His foot, golf cleats and all so far in his mouth, He can scrape the brown out of the hole in His backside for a birdie putt.

But auto insurance is provided by private entities, Not the Government.

Now exactly where did you get that from?

There he goes again! “ol addict, stoogie chompin’, can’t pass the buffet line, Brush Himoff. 
“I’m not concerned about the very poor”, said the multi-millionaire, realizing they probably will not vote, and who had just paid 13.7% in taxes on 21.7 million dollars in earnings, and recently bought the state of Florida. The big bad capitalist who owns Bain Capital, who owns Clear Channel, who owns the Toxic Talking Heads like Brush Himoff(here you are), Spawned Insannity and others, was relishing his fifteen point win over Newton Leroy, the other out-of-touch leader of the four horsemen. The story continues with everyone happy and urging on their backers to give more money so as to out spend the other contender. Romney continued urging protesting taxes, which pays for a multitude of programs they deem unnecessary, in-effective or not allowed by the constitution, while announcing over 40 million in new money has come into his PAC last quarter. And they lived happy ever after at the expense of the very poor and middle class. The end of part 4. Parts 5, 6 and 7 to be continued!

What? Rush sucks money out of the system for bloviating nonesense all the hours there are. Obviously. Nothing follows from the fact that I don’t. You may think it does, but that is because you are too stupid to think this through.

Is Hush Bimbo high on Oxy again?

You mean earned millions!

Weak personal attacks!

It took this deep into the thread before someone actually dealt with Limbaugh’s point.  

Forget the attacks on President Obama’s intellect; that’s Rush knowing the dittoheads lap up that sort of stuff. The point is, these comments show Rush wanting to have the media treat Newt with the same regard as they grant Romney on the ‘electability’ question – so he raises the 10-16 WL record (tho without mentioned Newt, who lost a couple of House contests back in 19 aught 74 & 76, then 10 Ws in a row, & now 1 for 4 in primaries for an11 & 5 record; which would help make Rush’s point, but I can see why he wouldn’t labor it because both records are going to change dramatically thru this primary season. Point being: Rush continues to question the ‘electability’ meme being conceded to Romney, & surely he’s right – especially now that the polls are starting to reflect that the folks increasingly don’t like Romney.  

So where’s this going? The sense is that Rush has decided to embody the base’s dissatisfaction with Romney as the choice. So, on top of all the other problems Romney has to deal with – & doesn’t show the slightest ability to deal with other than by throwing money at them – now what he’s got is a pretty clear sign that the same base that wasn’t thrilled with McCain in 2008 is going to be even less enamoured of Romney this year.  

What’s wrong with all that it that the polls all show that Americans overwhelming THINK Obama empathizes & sympathizes with the middle class & the working poor, & cares about the very poor. So, how does Romney undercut that perception? He can’t. The best he can do is try to wedge a distinction between working class one-paycheck-from-disaster whites & working class one-paycheck-from-disaster non-whites. That’s something Newt knows how to do, but Romney? No chance.

Well, gee whiz – if Limbaugh says it – I guess it must be gospel.   NOT.

What no poem?

Limbaugh……what a sad, pathetic waste of skin. 

I do think the day will come sooner rather than later when negative comments about entitlements like we have heard the last few months will be out of vogue. It will simply become too unpopular to criticize the poor, the unemployed, food stamp recipients and the chronically ill to name a few.

I use as my guideline the fact this has already occurred with DADT and opposition to gay marriage. As more of the population opposes these anti-gay positions it becomes increasingly more difficult to maintain one’s opposition without appearing unreasonable and out of touch. Same goes for the birthers who are even being ridiculed on Fox News.

Limbaugh sucks not a penny out of his listeners, unless the listeners wish to subscribe to his website, VOLUNTARILY. He gets paid by his employer, an honest dollar (or two or a million) for an honest day’s work. Your flaming, typical liberal jealousy and envy does not change that fact.

What he says on his radio show – which has more listeners than all of the measly and miserable liberal radio shows, combined – may be nonsense to you, but the REAL harmful nonsense was spouted by your hero in 2008, when he pulled the wool over your eyes and talked about “fundamental change” which you and your ilk took to understand that he will pay your rent, mortgage, car payment and groceries out of his stash.

I pity you for falling for the real dangerous and harmful nonsense. 

I was VERY POOR when I arrived as an eighteen year old kid, all by myself, not knowing a word of English. Back in 1957 there was nobody who cared about the poor.

Nor there should be anyone today. The only people who should be looked after by others are those under eighteen years of age, and even those, only by their parents.

Being “looked after” and “being cared about” fosters free-loading and laziness.

If you want to see the definition of the word “zero” (0), look for/google under “government assistance to Korean immigrants”.

You know those, whose stores are repeatedly robbed by local poor.

I would prefer a gaffe-prone president to one that willingly, harmfully and viciously wants to “fundamentally change” the vision of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Lyndon Baines Johnson finally found/invented the Philosophers’ Stone and called it Great Society.

Who would have thought that after nearl 50 years and 16 trillion dollars later only about 6% of the lead turned to gold.l
