Rush Limbaugh said that President Obama hates this county.
He had this to say on his radio program Monday morning:
I think it can now be said, without equivocation — without equivocation — that this man hates this country. He is trying, Barack Obama is trying, to dismantle, brick-by-brick, the American dream. There’s no other way to put this. There’s no other way to explain this.”
Rush was reacting to a speech President Obama gave Friday saying that public infrastructure, like roads, bridges and education facilitate private sector growth. During the speech, Obama made the following point:
“If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.”

The NObama campaign is LYING!
vote Nobama 2012!
The only people that should be voting for Romney are the 1% who will benefit from huge tax breaks and deregulation of everything. The rest of us get the austerity program from Greece to cut all programs that might benefit people, including badly needed infrastructure help.
Read the Paul Ryan budget carefully! What will it mean for you?Then go to the whitehouse.gov and read on all the issues. Get informed from real sources, not hate mongers.
Limbaugh isn't even worth commenting on except remember his solution for poor children - "dumpster diving"!
Mitt:
Left bain in February 1999 in doing so he turned over the day-to-day operations
to the management.
After the Winter games, mitt started the negotiations of selling out his stock of
bain to the management team.
This took over 2 years, reason is the now going to be owners in this LLC are going
to limited partners.
So they took their time over 2 years to get it right the 1st time, in regards of
partners joining & leaving the company.
Now it is law and under the rules of LLC's and the SEC that Mitt had to be listed
as sole stock owner CEO & managing director, until his sale was 100% completed.
Go read the rules of an LLC at irs.gov & sec.gov
You DEMWITS know nothing about Business.
Vote NObama 2012!
I doubt that Romney did anything illegal because that system, like most others, is regulated more as an allowance to large corps for protecting their self-enrichment. Romney's tax returns would give a little look into how that works that many people won't like and may want people in office to address like and kind systems of this nature in government as to fairness and purpose that serves a democracy and not a kleptocracy.
Kleptocracy....that's creative......interesting way putting it
But yeah he probably isn't guilty of any real crimes, I myself am not concerned with Romney's tax returns. I can already tell what's in them: he made a whole bunch of money on investments and dividends that aren't taxed as highly as actual work, he used a whole bunch loopholes to pay less that other people don't know about or can't get and got a bunch of tax favoritism
We know that I'm more interested in his plan that he has yet to articulate
The truth is President Obama hates few peoples in this country like Rush Limbaugh, like many of us do.
LMAO = Only TOTAL IDIOTS Would Believe What This GOOFBALL Has To SPEW - I Mean SERIOUSLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha ha ahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!! GOOFBALLS !!!!!
Some of that 1% may vote for rmoney BL but less than 5%. The other 95% of the votes that Rmoney gets will not be votes for him but votes against Obama. With the fallout of his lies about his Bain timeline, even that 5% figure may be way too high. Rmoney hasn't given anyone with a working brain any reason to vote for him, and only those who vote on emotions instead of brains will vote for Rmoney.
rush dimDoushe ---- What A GOMER !!!!!!! And Anyone that Stands Behind Him --- OH -Oh oh OH - Sorry for the Visual - Heeheheheeheeee !!!!! I Bet that He Supports mr. sandusky !!!
I think you are referring to Limbaugh? He is a very bad goofball. He is one of the worst alright. He is making big bucks by entertaining the haters with divisive and language and lies. I wish he would go to Canada like he said he was going to do.
He and all the lying psychopaths at fox news. That should be labeled as comedy only. Roger Ailes is a traitor this man ought to take it off the air.
I don't understand about the "Vote" question? What is this, voting for what?
The lush limpbrain is the last person who would know what is in OBAMA's mind. So we also know that lush is a right wing liar, and he would say anything to feed the fringe!
We are no dimwits, b, and we also know when a man lies. What did he do to make the Olympics a success.....he used bain in crooked deals, that he tried to keep under cover. Pay attention for the next few days while is is exposed for his actions. Why, why, why, would you want to defend willard? That is the big question. Do you go along with illegal acts?
Since you love to repeat things, I'll repeat this. WHERE ARE WRONG WAY WILLARDS TAX RETURNS???????
I am surprised (not really) by all this judgement, name calling, in-tolerance) by the people that call themselves (tolerant). I think this is still the land of free speech, so Rush should have a (right) to his free speech, like it or not.
Who are you people who support Mitt Romney, his billionaire pals and the right-wing nuts? Unless you are one of the 1%, you are just uninformed and supporting someoneagainst your own best interests...If you think you've got it bad now under President Obama, just wait until your racism leads you right down the rabbit hole into the abyss.
Specifics please? What are the lies being told my The President? Like your Mr. Romney, you are speaking in generalities....Of course, Romney thinks it will get him elected....keep the American People ignorant of his true motives, his tax returns secret, his Olympic deals secret and certainly those disputed years at Bain out of the news, while at the same time appealing to the dark, bigoted, fearful inclinations of his base and hopefully some middle-of-the-road independents, and like magic, he's pulled a rabbit from his hat....and realized his long held dream....Voila! President of these United States!!!! God help us all!
Rush is popping pills again and is losing his freaking mind. Hey 13 who you voting for when Mittens finishes self imploding? Ron Paul BOL.
well well well rush sees the need to be the center of attention again. ANYBODY WHO BELIEVES THE CRAP COMING OUT OF HIS BIG MOUTH, DESERVES WHAT'S COMING.
please go away rush.
No, Rush. Obama loves this country. It's just that the country hates you! At least anybody with a brain. Unlike your brain which was destroyed by Oxy and God knows what else. Give it up Fatboy, Mitt's going down in Nov.
No he called it right, for Obama to claim that business owes it success to the government is a sick joke.
Then you know nothing about US history. Here is a clue without government there would have been no railroad. If it wasn't for government there would be no streets. If it wasn't for government there would be no interstate. If it wasn't for government there would be no electricity, phone services outside of the cities. All things built and kept up by the government paid for by taxes. Who benefited from all this businesses.
If you built a factory, you moved your goods to market on roads all of us paid to build.
You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate.
You were safe in your factory because of the police and fire departments the rest of us paid for.
On the other hand, AIG gambled on mortgage-backed securities and lost. The government stepped in with $182 billion to keep AIG afloat. Three years later, AIG is earning billions in profit-and the government is subsidizing the company with a special tax deal that allows AIG to avoid paying any taxes.
Seems like government does a lot for business. Too bad you can't admit it.
Sorry...Just not true...
Do you have another explanation? who paid for the Roads, bridges and everything else, ( tax payers) it sure isn't you and your neighbors, you people need to stop lying and speak the truth so that this country can move forward...
What Obama said to those who care to try and understand it instead of just distort was essentially just a copy of a popular video of Elizabeth Warren. Warren on the campaign made a convincing and logical case that there is no one or business who never benefitted and thus was helped by something that our society has created through the apparatus of government.
Frankly it's a very simple and I would say a classical American message. We are in this together and we should be thankful for what the previous generations gave to us and we must do that for future generations. God didn't know that was a controversial statement or some socialist belief.......we all should be thankful for our American government system and should seek to continue to uphold its basic values?
We should stop this Rand philosophy it's poisonous. Ayn Rand's work tries to make the case that selfishness is inherintly moral and that all community related concepts which are not about the self are bad. This is nonsense. I would invite some of our friends on the right to put down the books by the atheist prophetess of greed Ayn Rand.
Wow, look at all these anti-Limbaugh comments here! Pretty encouraging: I think maybe this fat, lying piece of filth has finally started to run out of people stupid enough to believe all his lies. Obama hates America? Sure he does. What an absolutely brilliant example of human @!$%# Limbaugh really and truly is.
Hey!113 get real bush had a surplus two hundred billion that is billion dollars what did he do with it he gave it away to his rich friends and middleclass left with a stack deck get your head out of your ass.
It's been up there too long and wedged in way too tight.
Please, Ed, like any sane, rational person cares what this ugly freak says, let alone believes it! Why give him air time?
Why pollute the air waves with the Limbaugh virus? He's the one full of hate, not Obama! Rush even hates himself. (99% agree with that self-evaluation, too.)
Slow news day?
LOL, Must be, CC.
Yea Ed don't put truth speakers on the air. Stupid people can't understand logic, it just makes them crazy.
Is that what happened to you?
I'll bet you are the bachelorette.
And I can spell it, too.
will- bush did not have anything the American people did... it's call TAX Dollars..
vote NObama 2012!
NObama = Jimmy Carter EPIC FAIL.....
vote NObama 2012!
Please be specific with one issue at a time that you do not like about Obama;s policies instead of generalities and hateful name-calling. What exactly do you not like? What are your sources? There is no one President that can be everything to everybody. But Obama has proven over and over again he cares about the people of America. Ask yourself why you choose to side with the likes of Limbaugh who is a misogynist, racist, drug-induced, ego-maniac supported by the worst of the 1%? Oh, and do tell what you liked about Bush's policies, since he probably was the worst President we've ever had.
He's a troll. Ignore him.
Sounds like you ed and all the rest of the liberals talking about the republicans.
Just look at the TV ad's you people do.
The difference is Rush lies the democratic ads are just speaking the truth about Mittens business experiences, really there lies your problem you have to lie about democrats but democrats don't have to make up crap about the GOP because the GOP actually did those things.
Thanks to Citizens United, the 1% in this country have a huge advantage $$ wise over Obama. The Koch Brothers and their ilk have written checks over $31 million dollars and have outspent Obama's campaign by a huge margin. They have entire news stations that are essentially Republican Propaganda machines and many more radio stations that have criticized Obama relentlessly from day one. They are extremely hateful, dishonest and their stated purpose was to make Obama a one-term President by not supporting anything he did. The current House does not care about the American people. Don't kid yourself. And they are the true masters of dis-information and hateful rhetoric!
Stupidita, still here? Ho-lee-cow!
Botany Lady, how true, the Koch brothers' hate reaches far and wide and has a great deal of money and power and influence. Citizens United has tolled the death knell for Democracy. They even contribute to Rove's super pac!
What you said is true, about the Koch's hate, greed and power and influence. They are wrecking Democracy by buying presidents, governors and other legislators.
They are on about the same level as Romney when he said "Laws are for the little people and suckers"
We are peasants to them. Serfs, peons, We are just exchangeable units of workers to them. I don't trust them not to try to wipe a few million of us off the earth.
What is that comment and vote what would be voting for or against? I can't find an answer, so I clicked on vote and post. hoping to find out but still in the dark here.
But who is stupidita?
I don't quite know which ads you are talking about ho-lee-cow, but, I myself have sent comments, at least to the "Hardball" blog, asking why they continue to show Mobil/EXXON ads when the message MSNBC hosts send out is supposed to be against HUGE PROFITS for CEOs, against BIG OIL, and for more alternative energy sources. It's quite contradictory. But then, as we all know, it's all about the money.
If that sound clip was any longer I would have grabbed my speakers and thrown them out of my office. His voice gets under you skin! How the heck can someone say things like this about the President and get away with it. If this were a few hundred years ago and you said that about a King you would have your head taken off. Free speech yada yada yada. Off With His Head!
Good thing you missed Rush the late late late late night show on TV when Fox started buying up small news stations nation wide. I lost a few TV's because of Rush, was repairing vintage motorcycles while watching late late late re runs then Fox and Rush showed up.
chaos22, Off with his head! I like that.
These righties have fallen down the rabbit hole.
I don't think it would actually affect him.
Rush just can't speak and THINK at the same time. What a bunch of blather!
Rush Limbaugh and the radical right have no concept anymore of what America is about. What happened to equal respect and oppurtunity? What happened to a land where we don't attack people for their religion and expect to be respected in public? What happened to everyone's free to have their own opinion? What happened to the country that was about freedom to disagree with facing a mob action?
That's a trend the left and the right have added to however it appears to be a trend which presently very public members of the right say that this is the america want. The America if you don't agree with the evangelical extremist agenda you will be burned at the stake. These individuals believe in a false revisionist history which denies the common facts and truths about the nation's founding. They don't know what this nation is about and if they are given power we must take them at their word that they will radically transform this nation, not into one of more liberty but to one like Iran. A theocracy run by a few high born and clerics who will be the power elite making all our decisions for us.
America it's time to stop humoring radical ideas which have no basis in fact for the sake of "balance". No more pretending as if conspiracy theories right or left have a place in serious public discourse. No more pretending that you can have a belief not based on reality and expect to not be laughed at.
Bye bye birthers, truthers, illuminati watchers, limbaugh lovers and the rest
I love it. Ed going after the guy he always wanted to be but could never get there. Rush is why Ed switched parties. Ed wanted to go national when he was a Republican but no one needed him. Switch parities become like Rush and become a 1%er. Worked like a charm.
Know why Rush's ears stopped working? They couldn't stand listening to him.
Chris.................that's reeeeeeeal.....great and oh my ribs again............hahahaha
my wife came in and said why are you laughing so loud? she took a look at your comment is still laughing........oh my ribs.............great Chris.........
Why, thank you.
Rush Limpbrain....oh man....give it your best shot Limpy. sounds like a need to an illegal drug run again. might have to get another maid though.
what was his tirade on Romney a few months back? oh my how we weave a tangled web........
ok, maybe I'm not readin Limpy right. maybe he thinks a brick is some kind of drugs...........and....feals threatned............his supply that is...........
oops...typo...threatened....either way....ain't he the top of education for the righties...........where's my drugs and let me spill it....
If Limbaugh says something it is a lie....
That's why he has to scream it 9 hours a day. So his audience will just give up thinking and accept it.
Actually, Limbaugh hates this country. He's the one that refused to fight, citing a butt pimple as the reason he wouldn't defend this country. He's the one that has threatened to leave this country if he can't get his way.
I thought the butt pimple cited him.

President Obama Talking about Out Sourcing
What a Hypocrite
President Obamas Job Czar
GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt, The Head Of Obama’s Jobs Council, Is Moving Jobs And Economic Infrastructure To China At A Blistering Pace
Apparently Immelt's idea of being part of the solution is to ship as many jobs overseas as he possibly can.
A recent article on the Huffington Post documented how GE has been sending tens of thousands of good jobs out of the country....
Protesters threw tomatoes and shoes at Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s motorcade on Sunday during her first visit to Egypt since the election of Islamist President Mohamed Mursi.
A tomato struck an Egyptian official in the face, and shoes and a water bottle landed near the armoured cars carrying Clinton’s delegation in the port city of Alexandria.
Protesters chanted: “Monica, Monica”, a reference to Former President Bill Clinton’s extra-marital affair. Some chanted: “leave, Clinton”, Egyptian security officials said.
What you see as proper political behavior, I assume. Soon to be adopted by the Republican party in lieu of actual issues.
Rush takes whatever is said out of context and twists the words to parallel his own twisted thoughts. Rush is definitely a twisted linear problem that needs to talk with Dr. Phil about his anxieties.
The blind leading the blind.
And if he grows wings he's so FAT he'll never get off the ground!
Do we still put nuts in strait jackets and haul them off to insane asylums? If so, Rush Limbaugh deserves such treatment. His vitriolic rantings are toxic and he looks and sounds crazy. Shouldn't such hate be contained in some way? He supported waterboarding. Maybe that could be used to wash away the hate. He must be a very unhappy man.
No the Republicans cut all funding to mental hospitals and Rush isn't crazy he's just a white trash idiot. Toss 'em in the trailer park
When candidate Barack Obama took the stage at the Democratic National Convention in 2008, he had some strong words for his Republican opponents.
"[I]f you don't have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare the voters," he proclaimed, "If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from."
LMAO
What are Romney's ideas?
I was watching the show and just about EXPLODED (and scare the cat!! oops - too late - she's under the bed!!)
Regarding business succeeding in part due to infrastructure that we all paid for that the right and Fox News are going ballistic over.
Here is my question:
When a business is looking for a location for a new factory, what are the criteria?
Do they look in an out of the way place far from anything? NO!
And why do they look for these things?
Because without this infrastructure - paid for by the community that is already there - their business will not succeed in that location!!!!!!!!!!!
ROMANS 13:4
“For he is the minister of GOD to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, BE AFRAID; for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is the minister of GOD , a revenger to execute wrath upon those that doeth evil…”
That's NOT Rush Limbaugh on the radio. Rush Limbaugh was scared to death by the same minister that got Breitbart. That is an imposter keeping the Limbaugh propaganda brand alive. Conservatives who vote for Republicans in 2012 will be cursed by their evil action and ignorance

The president NObama made the comment Friday during a speech
to supporters in Roanoke, Va. Arguing that business owners got help from others
along the road to success and suggesting they should pay more in taxes in
return, he said: "If you've got a business, you didn't build that.
Somebody else made that happen."
NObama the Tax's and SPEND president..
VOTE NObama 2012!!
Rush Limbaugh is a hater, He is giving his opinions and that is free speech, not the bile he spills. He is a bigot hates woman, drug taker, loser. He makes up things and calls it free speech. I can spout words on the street corner about my neighbor, grocer the guy at the gas station. It is my free speech, but If I lie about them that is slander. Rush is an expert at that.
I am trying to stay in the center (Independent ) in this political season, but this man Rush Limbaugh is a manipulator, he knows his audience and plays on there emotions, I cannot find anything that is communist in Obama's speech, this Limbaugh changes what is said in a speech to suit his own interpretation and people actually buy this garbage, this Limbaugh is akin to a cult leader and when it is all over, his followers will need to be reprogrammed to fit in society, anybody buying what this man is selling is in deep trouble in my opinion, how does Limbaugh get communist from a speech stating roads and bridges were not built on there own, this is a collective effort, the merchant need these thoroughfares to carry there goods to the marketplace, someone had to build and someone had to make use of what is built, everybody has their purpose and together everybody makes a project a success. Now, some people are better investors and therefore they will see more of a profit than the person who just squanders, but we need everyone to make this country a success...
