Rush is a douche

[burntonion05]

That is exactly what I was thinking. As long as they have morons like Rush leading their party they will continue to lose votes. Bring on Rush, Hannity, and Coulter because they are good for the Democratic party.

Hannity is a dickhead! Rush Limbaugh is a useless twit and Glenn Beck is a racist pig! and Sharron Angle wants women that are raped or suffer from incest to have their child? Where is this country headed!

[reddog223]

No that is  the dems.

Heidi Harris is a man, baby. The drag queen from Vegas. No beauty and certainly no brains. Give this dip her own TV show. Please! Please! I've crapped smarter things in the toilet.

These guys are idiots, Rush is extreme. By Obama calling him the de facto leader of the republican party therefore the entire republican party looks this extreme and crazy and therefore turns off swing voters thus dems gaining more support. The reps who stand up to him will have to beg for forgiveness (steele) and so look weak. The Obama team are geniuses for calling out Limbaugh.

The question itself is an oxy-moron. Liberals are idiots when it comes to ideology, so they go and attack the enemy with illegitimate stupid attacks. Rush Limbaugh said last month "I am not a party person." So, therefore, he's the leader and voice of the republicans. The republicans are the new democrats and dems are new commies. And Rush bashes the GOP for abandoning Reagen. He is clearly not speaking for republicans, he his speaking for conservatives.

"Are the Republicans so desperate to find a leader they would have a talk show host who does not know Washington head their party? "

The GOP are the party of fear. The party of cowards. A party so terrified, impotent and weak they refused to do ANYTHING to get the guy who killed 3,000 people on THEIR watch! They just spent 8 YEARS trying to get the rest of America to be as scared as they were. Are they so scared they would let a drug-addicted shock-jock take control and "leadership"? YES!!!

[ChrisArlingtonVA]

Yes, Rush Limbaugh is the face of the modern-day Republican Party = fat, college drop-out, drug-addict. A very fitting choice to be the GOP standard-bearer, after the village idiot manchild George Dumbya Bush.

"The repubs will do anything for power. Even if it means the destruction of America."

As if the Democrats are much better, the Democrats pretty much just want Gov't to be involved in every facet of American life.

Either the Government is your parent, or its not.

because he is old and doesnt excercise. he probably eats a "bit" also. i mean, why a person is fat is not rocket science.
