Listening to Limbaugh for a few minutes....

[kentuck]

I get the impression that the White House, with the assistance of Limbaugh-types, will draw a line in the sand and will define the crime in the domestic spying as the leaking of the information, rather than the act itself. They are ready for battle. And it's been a long time coming. We will not back down on this. We are fighting for the basic rights of the American people, Democrats and Republicans.

Limbaugh said that the liberals are out to get "us". The "us" sounded so paranoid and unreal coming from the propagnadist. He said we need to find out who leaked the information to the NYTimes. To him, that was the crime. But, I think he was making a path for other right-wingers to follow. We shall see.

1. When they start using the paranoid "Us"

You know they're losing it. Rush must getting the jim jams without an Oxy fix.

2. Limbaugh has no credibility because he's fought so long and

hard to keep his medical records private.

Limbaugh is nothing but a hypocrite, however, I don't expect the "non-thinking" Rush lovers to even conceive of this.

[Warpy]

3. Limbaugh may be one of the main ones they've spied on

This is a fishing expedition to get dirt on everybody they think they'll need to blackmail now or in the future.

[Maraya1969]

4. The proper term is "whistle blower" not "leaker". Mr Limbaugh is

paranoid enough to call it a leaker when someone tell the citizens of this country that they are being spied upon.

If these people were not in a business I think many of them would have turned sides by now. Remember they have to play to their crowd. I would hate to be in a position where people expected me to never change my mind or my perception. It must become very monotonous spilling out the same dribbling lies for 4 hours/day 5 days/week.

Then again maybe he really is just batshit crazy and that is why all the batshit crazies follow him.

Don't forget that Hollywood adage: "The only bad publicity is no publicity."

[Kashka-Kat]

5. Bush already said just that on Saturday

He was all huffy. Like he's the one who's been wronged.

[BuyingThyme]

6. I didn't hear Druggie, but the angle I seem them taking is:

What's done is done. What can we do to give the president authority to approve his own domestic espionage activity?

It's not a problem with the president, it's a problem with the law.

[AValdoux]

7. Mentioned in earlier thread

To make them really crazy, ask Repubs if Hilary will have the same power if we win the WH in 2008. Or Howard Dean?

8. Geez Rush, they're tapping your phone too! Is that OK with you? (n/t)

[tsuki]

9. I wonder if his drug use and radio "popularity" made him an

illegal target. Keep your enemies close, but your friends closer.

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. OK, PigBoy, let's do a little snooping around your medical records

you miserable drug addicted lying COWARD.

Oh, I forgot. You think that wouldn't be right, don't you?

[Fla Dem]

15. Exactly right. Pig Boy was squealing so loud when he thougth

his rights were violated. What a two faced porker.

[Liberal In Texas]

11. That 's the frame. We can't let them get away with it.

I'll bet this "talking point" came from the WH, not Oxyboy.

You wait, all the talking point fax recipients will be spouting the same frame on this, immediately.

[Parche]

12. typical

Its just like they blamed Valerie Plame for being "outed" by someone in the Whitehouse

[Cleita]

13. Well, Mike Malloy, subbing in for Randi Rhodes is demanding

Bush's removal by any legal means possible. He's shaming Congress by comparing how militant they were about Clinton's impeachment. May Mike's voice drown out the drug addled voice of Rush.

[Supersedeas]

14. Oh, now the leaker is relevant -- demand FULL cooperation, Mr. President

[zbdent]

16. Do something nicer for yourself than listening to Rush - say

bashing your skull in with a sledgehammer, for an example . . .
