PREZ ZINGS GOP FOE IN A $TIMULATING TALK
Source: New York Post

WASHINGTON -- President Obama warned Republicans on Capitol Hill today that they need to quit listening to radio king Rush Limbaugh if they want to get along with Democrats and the new administration.

"You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.

One White House official confirmed the comment but said he was simply trying to make a larger point about bipartisan efforts.

"There are big things that unify Republicans and Democrats," the official said. "We shouldn't let partisan politics derail what are very important things that need to get done

2. Well, hell, that's what I'd tell them, myself. It's a good point to make with ANYONE
on that side. You might be better served to stop listening to that blow-hard hatemongering baboon if you want to get along with people on our side of things, or be able to do business with us. Heaven forbid any of his dittoheads be compelled to start thinking for themselves.

6. Thanks. Me too.
I am definitely the black sheep in my family, but I decided that I'm not going to define myself here by what my family thinks. I'm moving forward!

5. Excellent point. Limbaugh and the rest of them are anti-American and
anyone who follows them will be led astray.

This country is in deep trouble and we all have to pull together as much as we hate each other.

7. I think people hate because
idiots like Limpballs and Shamnesty and the Man culture spew continuous hatred. Even when we have an excellent opportunity for the country to come together and heal after the dark years they want nothing of it and want the country destroyed. I wouldn't doubt that they start Secession movements for various midwestern and southern states soon.

13. "...how you can spend hundreds of millions on contraceptives,"
The "pro-life" enthusiasm for letting the female be harmed and saving the egg --

"You know, I'm concerned about the size of the package. And I'm concerned about some of the spending that's in there, ... how you can spend hundreds of millions on contraceptives," House GOP Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) later said. "How does that stimulate the economy?"

15. Let's see...
"...size of the package," and "contraceptives" and "stimulate" -- all uttered by someone named Boehner.

Really. Are there people who take this guy seriously???

(Yeah, I know, it's pronounced "bayner", but sheesh.)

8. Shame we don't really have "obscenity" laws anymore...
It's a shame we don't really have "obscenity laws" anymore - I get chills up my spine whenever I hear a Republican say "Rush says" and his rhetoric, really, is obscene. And his obscenity should be banned from the airwaves. To hell with the First Amendment. I consider him a pedophile. Raping the young and innocent with his hateful rhetoric.

9. So let me get this straight, republican leaders were invited to the White House
...for a serious discussion concerning getting the country back on track with a bold move based on President Obama's stimulus and recovery plan and one or more of these reTHUGs interjected this fascist Rush Limbaugh's opinions and comments into a serious discussion about the future welfare of this country?

Obama would have been within his authority to throw whoever referenced Limpballs right out on his ass to expose that fool to the general public.

Eight years of that horse shit has been quite enough thank you

14. Most likely it will
However, it may also give some people that listen to that weasel, real pause to see that the divisiveness is not the way forward in these critical times.

We are in a real ditch and I think 99 percent of Americans agree that we must find a way to get ourselves out before the ditch collapses around us.

Nothing else matters if the country falls apart and for that reason the confrontation must take place sooner rather then later.

17. Actually, humbled_opinion, it's about 78%. There are still those 22% who love fascism.
And hate anything a Democrat does or says.

11. Why did President Obama
Mention Limpballs name. You know Limpballs loved it. He got that tingling feeling up his ass just hearing his name mentioned by President Obama. If President Obama keeps it up Limpballs boil will pop.

12. Good for Obama . . . but isn't it really the other way around, that is . . .
Edited on Fri Jan-23-09 09:24 PM by defendandprotect
Limbaugh is the GOP propaganda megaphone --

Like FOX TV is the GOP propaganda megaphone ---

Same thing with religious right wing fanatics --

they are the "god" license for the crap that the GOP does --

And, in fact, the GOP gave start up $$$$$$$$$$$$ to the Christian Coalition --

Patriarchy is nothing without a "god" that says Christian males are superior and everyone

else is the enemy--!!!

18. This is called "the shot across the bow" or the warning shot. What our President was
saying to these guys is that he isn't going to play stupid games with them. Just like when he said "I won."

I have a feeling that if they don't get the message, Obama is going to body slam the shit out of them. Maybe even put a suflex on 'um.

But he's a gentleman, so he warned them first.

19. actually, I hope this is not true . . .
the president just mentioning Limburger's name gives him a certain legitimacy that is simply unwarranted . . . I can just picture Thrush puffing up his chest and telling his audience "See, even Obama knows how powerful I am!" . . .

when there's a fart in the room, it's best not to mention it . . .

28. I agree, the good thing I'll say about the comment is that it's
dismissive - it highlights Rush's uselessness and unimportance.

27. Thank you, Mr. President! I've been so tired of keeping our powder dry
and keeping our table clean!

Thank you for dealing with those pissing in the powder and shitting on the table!

"I won."

Yes, and let's press these bastards. If they won't do the right thing, dump 'em by the side of the road.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

29. If true, Rush will make fodder out of this
...and we'll never hear the end of it from the Freepers.

Rush needs to be ignored by most and discredited by those capable of doing it.
