Being Outrageous Doesn't Pay Off?

Bryan, if you feel that the current president's policies will undermine the future of this country and eliminate the foundation that made this country great, I believe it is patriotic to want him to fail.

* disclaimer - I have never listened to Rush L.

rirochound:
You can be patriotic to your country but, you do not have to stand for any one person if they do not believe in anothers believe or reasoning. That is why you have Republicans, JackAsses (Democrats) and people like me, Independents.

Example:
The French underground. They believed in their country but, not Hitlers plan of the way they would be living under his rule. Hitler failed

The Germans:
The German generals were patriotic to their country and after awhile they felt that Hitler had to go even tho they failed with their plot to assasinate, they were patriotic. At the end Hitler failed.

I am patriotic to my country, I believe in this country, served in the USMC. Does not mean that I believe in this President. He is leading us down the wrong path with the healthcare plan, a one payer system and creating to much debt for you and I.

Also noticed how you choose your words. One of President Obama's down falls in his ratings was for using a word like the one you used, he used the word stupidly. Be carefull about the words you use, they could make one feel that one is dumb.

Listen to yourselves! Out of eight posts in this thread by 3 of you, (JohnnyD, Rirockhound, Spence) are these ad hominem attacks:

"rile the drones"
"feed the ignorant"
"behaving like an idiot"
"piss-poor representation"
"using the word fail . . . is stupid"
"fat hypocrite"
"Rush Limbaugh is a corporate whore"

And this by two of you who decry Republicans calling liberals liberal.

This is not an ad hominem attack. Rush has stated publicly that his primary motivation is to create ad revenue for his sponsors.

How is doing a good job for your employer tantamount to being a whore? Rush has stated many things publicly, but he has never stated that he is a whore. Again, you transform words in a slippery fashion to suit your argument. Then, perhaps, if you, Spence, work for somebody and you, by your efforts help your employer earn profits . . . maybe you consider YOURSELF a whore. Or if you're self-employed, maybe you consider yourself the Madam.

"Rush has stated publicly that his primary motivation is to create ad revenue for his sponsors."

actually, he states publicly that his primary "motivation" is to create ad revenue for himself(his business/his show)...his sponsors pay for the ads that create the revenue that he enjoys...he doesn't "create ad revenue for his sponsors" (he creates demand for his sponsors products) and he creates huge paid ad revenue through "exhorbitant" ad costs because his show is enormously successful....if he were a liberal progressive democrat he just demonize others and then go take their money from them

I think I've wandered into something here...

some create positive things, products/services and others "willingly" for these (capitalists)
some create negative things, dependance/govt. beaureaucracy and "forcibly"require others to pay for these (socialists)

and the later really have a nasty attitude toward the former...jealous?


I know, I know...socialist...is the new N-word...gotta love the left
