Rush Limbaugh is a traitor to our country. He has said on his radio show and in interviews that he not only hopes that the Obama administration will fail, but that he will work for that failure.
Our country faces the most complex series of interlocking problems in our history: economic crisis, two wars, global warming, unregulated immigration, rampant drug use and a failing educational system. It is not possible to solve these problems without successful political leadership. Thus, Limbaugh is saying he is working for the destruction of our country.
I would have thought that his incessant preaching of hate and his disregard of the facts (a.k.a. his lies) would have been enough to cost him any audience he might once have had. But now traitorous activity -- why is he taken seriously by anyone? Why are the rantings of a traitor being carried in Augusta? It is as if Tokyo Rose or Lord Haw Haw were being broadcast here during World War II.
I repeat, the man has said he wants our country to fail -- for us to lose both wars; for the recession to worsen for the next four years; and for illegal immigration to grow worse. If a person consider himself or herself a descent person, much less a patriot who wishes our country to succeed, that person will not only turn him off, but will let Limbaugh's affiliates know that you doing so.

Mr Reese, he has said no such thing. He wants our country to prosper. That is why he would like President Obama's flawed policies to fail. He is very clear in the distinction.
"Limbaugh praised Obama as one of the most gifted politicians he has seen, but said, "It just breaks my heart that he does not use these extraordinary talents and gifts to motivate and inspire the American people to be the best they can be. He's doing just the opposite."..............................."We conservatives have not done a good enough job of just laying out basically who we are, because we make the mistake of assuming that people know. What they know is largely incorrect, based on the way we're portrayed in pop culture, in the drive-by media, by the Democrat party," "We want every American to be the best he or she chooses to be. We recognize that we are all individuals. ???? What is so strange about being honest and saying, I want Barack Obama to fail if his mission is to restructure and reform this country so that capitalism and individual liberty are not its foundation? Why would I want that to succeed?" he said, bringing the crowd once again to its feet. "Did the Democrats want the war in Iraq to fail? Well, they certainly did. And they not only wanted the war in Iraq to fail, they proclaimed it a failure." .....so whats the problem?
Andy, can you direct me to your LTE defending Bush so vehemently?
I'm sorry I thought that non-violent dissent was permitted in this country. That must only be if you are a member of or are supporting the ideals of the Democratic Party. My Bad!
Andy, you poor misguided twit. Listen to what Rush said ... the entire comment in context ... before you "rush" to judgement. I agree with Rush. I hope Obama's plan to drag us into a socialist state fails!! I don't want Obama to fail as President but this country decided the type of country we wanted to be long before Obama was born! Dragging us a new direction that is already shown as a failure in Europe is not the change we asked for. Any more chnage and I won't have a pot to do my business in. This change is TOO expensive for me.
Add former Obama supporters Warren Buffet, Jim Kramer, Rich Santelli and the host of Democratic Congressmen who will vote against the stimulus to your traitors list.
How dare Rush exercise his right of free speech, think for himself or express an opinion that happens to be different from yours. Obviously, if he won't drink the Kool-aid, he must be vilified, humiliated and personally destroyed.
Did y'all hear Warren Buffet? He said it is our economic system that has made America great. He said it will be our economic system that will get us out of this mess.
For 8 years, this idiot, ANDY REESE, along with other leftie idiots like Lowell Greenbaum spewed venom against W. Now, O is in charge and they can't stand the criticism. I have one bit of advice Andy, GET USED TO IT!!!! And to the AC, you couldn't have just one LTE throwing crap at Rush and the righties. No, you have to have 2 today. Great paper you got there, for a fish wrap!
Andy, I see thinking isn't one of your strong suits. Well, Dem....who's surprised? I haven heard so much election year rhetoric since before the election. You need to moveon.org.
He wants SOCIALISM to fail; not this country. Don't watch the news anymore. They're more of tabloids now.
Yeah Rush is just as much as a traitor as every dem that posts on here.
Impeach them all and let's start over. Tea Party anyone?
Another of the Piper's minion mice, has no facts, just repeats what is has heard from his socialist news sources. Goebbles would be proud.
Mr. Reese, go sit down and continue watching / listening to Keith Olbermann and National Public Radio. Thats obviously where you are getting your info from. You dims talk more about Limbaugh than you do the accomplishments of our president. Oh wait, there are no accomplishments.
Well I suppose Obama is making headway in running this country...Look how nicely he is running our nation right into our enemies hands...I think he needs better coaches, writers, and just some full time professors to help him memorize his lines...He is becoming amazing to watch as he appears to be lost more often than not...
Limbaugh is the next Hitler.
Yeah Palomino, one individual tried to wipe out an entire religous group and the other hopes Socialism fails. Right on the Money. Louis Farrakhan is closer to Hitler than Rush.
Rush " Tokyo Rose" Limbaugh.
Hippyc, you funny boy!
I hope Obama, who espouses Socialist beliefs, has Marxist ties (black liberation theology, something I know a little about), and who is actively trying to turn this country into a Socialist state, fails as well and fails big. Anyone who doesn't like it, and thinks I'm a traitor and should be sent to prison, come and get me. You can have all of my firearms, bullets first. I served 8 damn years in the defense of this nation against ALL enemies, foreign AND domestic. I listened to you blathering idiots for 8 damn years trash the hell out of Bush, GET USED TO IT.
Another kool-aid drinker. Typical dem rhetoric. Nothing new here.
The silver lining about this Marxism that all the conservatives are predicting is that your stupid thread comments will be censored, and I won't be able to read such ignorant statements.
And I repeat, Rush never said he wants this country to fail. Matter of fact he emphasized he wants our country to succeed; therefore, he wants Obama's social agenda to fail. Obama's policies are bad for America.
Tell me how he's not a Socialist then, fool. I'd love to hear your ignorant reasoning on that one. Capitalism only works when you let Capitalism WORK! Banks, auto companies, ALL should have been allowed to fail. Other companies who are profitable could have easily sucked them up. How many damn auto manufacturers have the "Big 3" put out of business, drove out of business, or taken over by hostile action? And I'm supposed to feel sorry for them? Well, as they say, wish in one hand.......
Obama's failure=America's success. Plain and simple. Throw ALL the bums out, INCLUDING Broun. His latest little ploy was it for me.
Oh great, headline this morning, "Fed Chief Ben Bernanke Discusses Reforming Financial System". Wonder how low the market will drop today? 100 points? 200? 300? No one has faith in any of these fools anymore. Every time they open their mouths the damn market drops. Here's a suggestion, STHU!
The writer is either a out right liar or he doesn't understand English. Rush predicted America will suffer these bad outcomes such as prolonged recession, worsening of illigal alien problems and snatching defeat from the jaws of victory by mismanaging of wars by Obama administration. These are the reasons Rush wants Obama's policies to fail so that America will succeed.
Read about Marxist strategies bdittle and you will plainly see Obama is using a marxist strategy (class warfare, etc). I believe Andy Reese knows his LTE is a series of non sequiturs-idiotic ones to be sure. But the agenda of such an ideologue is to destroy the competition and silence the competition and to do so in any ruthless manner. Andy know Rush made no such gestures against America but against what he believes a socialist Obama. Then again Andy could be an idiot too. Communism has long been acceptable in the U.S. in fact you may have listened to the Pres of Communist Party USA laud Obama for sharing the same goals and implementing the things they value(so if a communist says you share the same goals and support your actions it is a good bet Obama has communist tendencies). Go to their website and read how strong the Communist Party supports Obama. You just can't make this stuff up. So with the same reasoning of Andy Reese that Rush is a traitor then we can say with impunity too Obama is a Marxist Communist (one form of socialist). Stings don't it!!!LOL>
When a president wants to destroy everything that made America great then common sense says you want him to fail. The only prayer to pray for him is that he becomes a Christian and let the Holy Spirit direct his path.
