Damn, that makes Rush at CPAC look good!

On balance this is on the milder side of the things that Rush says. But seriously, why do people insist on giving him attention?

He has a few fans,I don't know why but he does.

A few?????

Sister, Thats a bit of an understatement.

Can you name one radio talkshow that has (or had) more listeners..... ever?

Paul Harvey and Howard Stern.

I don't think so.

Perhaps you think wrong?

Not even both of them together could come close to Rush.

well perhaps I am if you can post some numbers, I'd like to correct myself.

It would seem Paul Harvey's hay-day was back in a time when the radio market was much smaller than today, certainly in the recent, he was no where close.

Did Stern ever get his number back up after leaving the airwaves?

[spookyturtle 9,465]

You are probably correct. I don't think Stern has the numbers he had before he went to satellite. I think him and Rush are douche bags. Anyone who hopes the President fails should be shot and deported.

The Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798

Under the threat of war with France, Congress in 1798 passed four laws in an effort to strengthen the Federal government. Known collectively as the Alien and Sedition Acts, the legislation sponsored by the Federalists was also intended to quell any political opposition from the Republicans, led by Thomas Jefferson.

The first of the laws was the Naturalization Act, passed by Congress on June 18. This act required that aliens be residents for 14 years instead of 5 years before they became eligible for U.S. citizenship.

Congress then passed the Alien Act on June 25, authorizing the President to deport aliens "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States" during peacetime.

The third law, the Alien Enemies Act, was enacted by Congress on July 6. This act allowed the wartime arrest, imprisonment and deportation of any alien subject to an enemy power.

The last of the laws, the Sedition Act, passed on July 14 declared that any treasonable activity, including the publication of "any false, scandalous and malicious writing," was a high misdemeanor, punishable by fine and imprisonment. By virtue of this legislation twenty-five men, most of them editors of Republican newspapers, were arrested and their newspapers forced to shut down.

One of the men arrested was Benjamin Franklin's grandson, Benjamin Franklin Bache, editor of the Philadelphia Democrat-Republican Aurora. Charged with libeling President Adams, Bache's arrest erupted in a public outcry against all of the Alien and Sedition Acts.

Many Americans questioned the constitutionality of these laws. Indeed, public opposition to the Alien and Sedition Acts was so great that they were in part responsible for the election of Thomas Jefferson, a Republican, to the presidency in 1800. Once in office, Jefferson pardoned all those convicted under the Sedition Act, while Congress restored all fines paid with interest.

Rush loves to be bashed, suckered those idiots into it, again.

Does that go for all Presidents or just this one?

I think a lot of folks would have been Shot during the last 8 years.

[HAL 9000 96]

Oh boy more apples and oranges from the thinking elite.

[Ban Hammer 13,337]

I think a lot of folks would have been Shot during the last 8 years.

quite true.

[Tahoma 2,292]

Let's give credit where credit is due. While Rush Limbaugh may be a hypocritical, fact-challenged, morbidly obese, drug-addicted blowhard, he's laughing all the way to the bank because there are enough willfully ignorant people out there who take his act seriously...and he knows it.

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Rush's just ranting 'cause he ran out of pills to pop.

Any President. I didn't care for Bush but I most certainly never wished for him nor any other to fail. Why would anyone want their country to fail?

[I'm Gone 60]

Kennedy and Limbaugh are both big fat bags of hot air, but Limbaugh hasn't personally killed anyone that I know of, so that puts him a couple notches above Uncle Teddy.

Certainly strange since the fail argument being played without much coherent thought has little do do with the actual criticism of the previous administration's politics.
