Sorry about the text, there were no videos just articles to pass on.
Um, Obama doesn't realize that he's JUST the president.




"Barack Obama picks a fight with Rush Limbaugh as bipartisan spirit crumbles
Barack Obama is on a collision course with his critics after picking a fight with Rush Limbaugh, America's most influential conservative commentator.


"Mr Obama has told Republicans in Washington to stop listening to the right-wing talk show host Rush Limbaugh, risking a new culture war with conservative voters.

His exhortation came as he enraged other Republicans by reversing George W Bush's ban on funding international aid to charities that perform or provide information about abortions.

After less than a week in office, Mr Obama's presidency is already encountering the very partisan bickering he had pledged to stamp out during his first 100 days.

He faces mounting criticism over his $825 billion economic stimulus plan, from Republican leaders who say the legislation has been drawn up without the input which Mr Obama had promised to allow them.

The president responded with a clear signal that he is prepared to ram the bill through without the bipartisan consensus he promised to construct, telling Republican leaders from the House of Representatives: "I won. I'm the president.""

  • This is some kind of logic...I've seen Pres. elections as far back as Eisenhour, and although party differences are heated, after the battle, party differences met, and did the business of the office they were in, under whatever leader was elected. It was done with respect, and an effort to serve the people. You do not find that now. I have never seen a Pres. so disrespected, and it speaks to a very sad state of our country. Anarchy would be an improvement over this nasty state of affairs.

  • pjamesdba, our country has a serious conflict.

    The right isn't even that influential-yet Obama thinks he needs to create an enemy for distraction purposes.

    I don't understand how you expect "racist teabagging right winged extremists" want to work with the left. I've never in my life seen private citizens attacked during a campaign or political affairs like this.

  • Although I don't agree with the views expressed, I like the style of this video very much. Neutral font on a neutral backdrop, conveying a clear message in a clear and simple manner, with some very nice music as the only frill. Having ever more trouble concentrating in surroundings where my senses are bombarded with 'entertainment' 24/7, I found this clip to be as relaxing as it was revealing. Thanks.

  • thank you!

    The country has a lot of big problems and it seems like all the media/"entertainment 24/7" can do is bombard us with "hype" , ie. gossip, bling, red herrings, ad hominems, strawmans... instead of information that's relevant to us.

    I trust you to make up your own mind. I have to give Rush props though because although you don't agree with him, unlike Laura Ingraham he was relevant.

  • When Bush was in power he did not consult with Congress and infact Vice-President Cheny had more power than any other politican in US history. Now when Obama is in charge conservatives cry fowl.

  • @kulan2

    See HR4655. This is why Bush didn't have to Consult with Congress.

    Speaking of abuse of power; Obama is now the President of the UN Security council- which is unconstitutional unless Congress approved it. Well, did they?

  • I think we have to impeach Obama now, the Federal Reserve is stepping it up. They are scared of Ron Paul opening their books. We are in grave danger don't think we have time for the next election. We must slow the machine down now. If we are too late God Bless you all.

  • free speech fuck you obama

  • Barry Soetoro tsc tsc.... " Our military will be back home in 6 months if Im elected... You can take it to the bank" Barry Barry you re something else.

  • I bet in a couple of years people will say,damn. people only voted for obama because he was black and I'd like to point out that I'm not racist.It's just my opinion.

  • What is the name of the song used in the background? Thank you

  • OBAMA IS A FRUAD OBAMA IS A PREACHER NOT A PRES.187 MAMA PIMP MAFIA

  • I would like Rush to explain why he dodged the draft, when so many others fought and died for his freedom.

  • @kulan2 I suggest that you replay the clip , and this time read it !

  • You say in the video that he threw the punches? I don't buy that one bit. The right has been harassing him non stop. Everything he does they take issue with. I couldn't be president because of all the criticism you receive for doing everything that you believe is right. It sickens me to listen to Rush Limbaugh be a jackass and criticize when he has no idea what goes on.
