Liberals have now spent five straight news days debating (and apparently over a year plotting) whether Rush Limbaugh is the "leader" of the Republican Party.
Quick side:
The last time we had an "entertainer" as leader of the conservative movement (no, not Reagan..he was a former entertainer) was a little known television host and magazine publisher by the name of William F Buckley, and I has gots to say that worked out pretty well.
I was watching the Rush CPAC speech (Rhino and Machosauce are right, it was on point) Saturday with someone who I would not consider a conservative. If you got to know the truth I'd peg them as being apolitical with some serious socially liberal leanings.
She expressed to me afterwards that she had never listened to Rush, fully expected to hate him and horror of all horrors agreed with damn near every single thing he said. She also said he looked like a Russian mobster we met at the Brighton Beach Banya. So grats on that Letterman for having the same political eye as a chick. Fag.
I tell this to state the obvious that Rush is not a boogeyman, but Obama and libs need him to be.

They need him to be the curtain to be the cover for the great and powerful Ozbama.
Why talk about his cabinet full of tax scofflaws? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about his cabinet full of lobbyists? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about the rushed midnight vote on a "stimulus" bill that no one read that sat on Obamas desk for four days? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about how the tax hike on the evil 5%ers will affect 100% of Americans in higher prices being passed on and job losses when small biz makes cutbacks? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about how the budget Obama has proposed is larger than every other budget in our history combined? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about Obama's backtrack on his pledge to remove all pork from the budget because Pelosi and Reid told him no? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about how Iran bitch slapped Obama? Why talk about how Russia bitch slapped Obama? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about the markets being down almost every damn day since he took office? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about Obama comparing the "gyrations" of the life savings and retirement funds of Americans as nothing more than opinion polls? Why talk about Obama hiring one of Bushs' key economic guys (Geithner) at the same time blaming everything on Bush? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about how Obama's lack of executive experience is showing? How his leadership is frighteningly inept? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about Obama's popularity is soaring when its historically average? Why not talk about the abysmal approval ratings of the dem controlled Congress? When they can talk about Rush.
Why talk about how Obama will destroy this country at its very core? When they can talk about Rush.
Ill tell you why...
Because Rush polls low, and all Obama knows is polling and campaigning... thats why. He doesnt lead, he follows. Hope and change has been replaced by putting this country on training wheels and lowering the bar. The White House knows they are off to a horrendous start and need to shift focus and blame fast.
but heres the problem...
The average American do not like Rush because they dont know Rush. They may think they do and have heard how hes over-weight or a racist or pops pills but they dont know Rush, they know what theyve been told to know... and they dont know squat.
....and thats where libs have gone wrong.
They wanted to make Rush the issue, but they wanted to make the old Rush the issue. The one noone knew about and the one most never listened to. The Rush before the web. Well, welcome to the internets jackasses. By making Rush the issue, people will now podcast google and youtube him and find out like my lady friend did the other night that he is right.
Rush is right.
He is right, and thanks to Obama elevating him to be his political equal more and more Americans are about to discover that Rush is right and Obama is wrong.
Rush is right and Obama is wrong.
... and I smell a backfire a coming.
EE-Aw!!!

Kudos to the Donkey. Very well said my friend, very well said indeed.
I have listened to Rush. He is a pompous blowhard. Modern conservatism is intellectually, morally, and politically bankrupt. Rush, Coulter, Savage,Trent Lott. Makes me miss Buckley, Goldwater, even Reagan.
Funny that your main area of contention with Mr Rush Limbaugh is that he is a "pompous blowhard" considering that you just elected a guy who's only qualification is that he can speak well.
...and by funny, I mean full of shit.
Not interested in debating Rush. I will grant that he is smarter than his listeners, as is Michael Savage. My point is that conservatism has gone downhill. Look neither Right or Left has a monopoly on truth, and conversely both are capable of error. Accordingly, I wish conservatism well, and am even sympathetic to aspects of it. Conservativism deserve better than the people who now claim to represent it. But no, you've got it all figured out: "Rush is right and Obama is wrong." At least it fits on a bumper sticker.
Out of the 12 "Why talk about..." bullets I made at least 9 specific and valid critiques of the Obama administration yet you sum my argument as a bumper sticker catchphrase. Which leads me to believe that...
I am right and you are wrong.
The bottom line is that liberals can't stand the fact they are wrong and Rush is right. Deep down the libs know they have no substance. They know they have no ideas. They know they are wrong and it kills them. Foolish pride on the left keeps them trying to dig out of the hole of truth but they keep digging themselves deeper. If you were buried neck deep in shit, would you spit in the wind? The left sure does!
I think you both hit the nail on the head. There is no substance to gary's, or the liberal argument, in general.
What it comes down to is principles. Rush spoke without a teleprompter and without a speech and yet he was never thrown off the path, why? because he's not trying to trick you with anecdotes and statistics, he speaks from the heart with a confidence and in a way that only someone who truly believes in a set of principles or certain values can do.
Obama is no dummy, and if he spoke from the heart he could sound just as eloquent as he does when reading from the teleprompter, but then of course he would expose his true beliefs which means he would never have gotten elected.
