Obama is arguing that he wants to go back to Clinton era tax rates since the Clinton era was so grande, and Rush finally cedes the idea. Let’s go back to Clinton era tax rates, he says. But while we’re at it let’s go back to Clinton era spending levels too. If the Clinton era was so great, he argues, then let’s go back to health care like it was under Clinton too. And so on.

This is why Rush is genius.

    Rush is entertaining, but he’s a talker. Glenn Beck is a doer. Sorry, Rush, but we’ve talked long enough. It’s time to get off your butt and lead some rallies. It’s time to get off your butt and do some fund raising for conservative candidates.

    Rush still has his moment of brilliance, but Beck, Levin, Dennis Prager and other conservatives in the media are using their clout to get things done. We aren’t going to get our country back by flapping our gums.

      I think you seriously underestimate what Rush accomplishes.

        Operation Chaos comes to mind.

        • http://www.planettron.com NickDeringer

          Operation chaos gave us Barack Obama. And sold a lot of tee shirts.

            Operation Chaos was made to give us Hillary, which McCain could have beaten, it gave Obama a good run for his money.

              And it sold a lot of tee shirts for Rush.

              Glenn Beck on the other hand has written books like “Broke” and had a history making rally at the Lincoln Memorial that has fired up the Tea Party and the conservative movement. It has inspired conservatives to get involved in taking their country back.

              Levin has his political center and has written great books like “Men in Black” and “Liberty and Tyranny” to name just a few.

              “I am an entertainer not a political activist.” – Rush Limbaugh to Tim Russert in his last interview with Rush.

                Not disagreeing that Beck does a lot more than Rush as far as action goes, but I don’t think you give Rush his full credit. Rush is someone whose fought the good fight all his life, still has the pull, but not as much energy anymore.

                  I think Beck is part of the new breed of political talk radio commentators. Rush is part of the old school. Rush doesn’t have comments on his site, for example. He doesn’t connect like Beck does.

                  The Rush Radio show does more than Beck and Levin combined. The man makes good points just like the video shows, that is how Rush gets it done, he has been doing it for 20 yrs…Beck and Levin are newbies, besides we need all of’em.

                  Maybe you could list all his accomplishments.

    Liberal are under the delusion that it was great under Clinton’s era. It was a tech bubble, just like Bush’s housing bubble, which was ever bigger. We also need Clinton’s era non bailout of the internet stocks that went to zero

  • Anonymous

    While we’re at it, lets allow the private sector to create the next internet bubble as well. The left doesn’t like to talk about how the private sector is the major backbone of the economy, and that the tax rates are not what made the 90s prosperous.

    I love Rush he is so direct and he loves America.

    Apparently Rush forgot the relative gutting of the military budget under the heading of a “Peace Dividend”

    And the fact that DHS didn’t exist either. If we eliminate DHS, and want to keep the military funding the same then the spending levels of other departments need to drop lower than the 90s levels as well.

    Unless Rush wants to pare down the military budget as well?

      I think you might’ve, just might’ve missed his point.

    • Tyler

      It would be nice if he was actually on board with that idea. However…I’m also with Scoop that you have apparently missed the point of the rant.

    Rush, let’s not forget some of the sights and names on the Clinton/Obama tour:
    Headline;
    -Podesta
    -Rahm
    -Holder
    -Fannie/Freddie
    -ChiCom most favored Nation
    -Russian/Saudi oil deal
    -Waco
    -Glass/Steagall
    -EPA Browner
    -Algore
    -Not killing Osama bin Laden
    and the final stop on the tour will be Impeachment.

    That Golden Era of Clinton where you could drag a $100 dollar bill thru a trailor park and get a nice return on your investment. Where is Carville? or a better question is where is his wife Matilin.

    The fact that such common sense can be labelled “genius” is a sad commentary on the state of our country. You’re right TRS, IN COMPARISON to the rest of the people our liberal education system has failed to teach critical and independent thinking Rush is a genius.
