CNN

It's pretty much obvious when every Republican that speaks out against Rush has to come on his show the next day, kiss the rings, and beg the Godfadda for forgiveness.

Rob – Ayers is not an advisor – if Rush told you that then I understand why you are confused on the facts.

Hey Richard, that is better than the spokesmen for the Democrats whom are illegal immigrants and uneducated and unemployed welfare leeches.

This is obvious, and has been obvious. Look at all the Repubrickans on CNN.com. All they ever do is repeat what Limbaugh or Hannity say.

I hate to say it but the South has the worst education of the country and yet they have the highest amount of Republicans. WHY IS THAT?

Who are the educated people, and who are the followers who listen to what they're told on the radio?

Palin/Limbaugh 2012.
Is that really the ticket the gop wants? This is scary and sad.

Rush lol.. oh what a role model to listen to!! Geesh.. just like Jindal was the rising Star and Palin was the perfect VP.

Where do the republicans come up with these jokesters??

Palin is now paying taxes on income she claimed as PerDiem working from home and did anyone see that it wasnt just days here and there it was like a maternity leave at home from like after her son was born til June? Several months! Now she is paying taxes on it.

Plus she is now paying $7000 back to the state for her kids trips that were not by law considered for her to claim the state to pay for.

This is just so funny!!! then Jindal comes out and boy was he dumb! Just how did he get in charge of Louisiana? New Orleans is still in shackles!

The ad is correct! The republicans are really pretty stupid and disgusting. They need to all disband, get rid of their idiotic so called leaders (who don't lead), get rid of the right wing nut jobs and start over! When they speak the majority of this country doesn't listen anymore!

This is what the democrats have failed to do the past 8 years. Point out the flaws; express a voice and support the agenda for change. Call the republican party on everything they do. Let them know the eyes of the world are on them, their lies and their misrepresentations. I'll be making a contribution to both this organizations.

Rush has a great castle,you can see it on google earth.

I hope he fails too. He's already on that path.

I think this is the biggest joke. The liberal news media has brainwashed Americans into "Obama Messiah Syndrome" for over a year now. How on earth can they justify attacking a conservative radio host? Possibly because he has the #1 rated talk show in the country? Gee...I wonder why. Don't worry. After Obama's spending sends the economy into a tailspin all his "It's Bush's fault" rhetoric will fall on deaf ears. Americans have short memories and little patience. After four years of this liberal garbage we will have a conservative in office again to clean up this mess. In the meantime the Democrats are going to Attack! Attack! Attack! the Republicans as usual but it won't work.

That tells me prettty much all I need to know about the party that runs on "character" issues. Taking cues from a lawless drug addicted hypocrite

Joseph Goebbels – Goebbels used modern propaganda techniques to manipulate and psychologically prepare the German people for a large scale military conflict. Among other propaganda devices, he invented the "Big Lie" technique, of blaming the victims (such as the Poles, the Jews, the French) for the transgressions of the perpetrators.

Sound familiar?

Rush has what ever liberal on these boards will never have:
Fame and Fortune
---------------------------–
There's something we have that he'll never have, too. Integrity.

isn't this great. go after a private citizen because he disagrees with the administration's policies. i guess the only dissenters who are patriots are liberals. pathetic. mega dittos rush.

One big, fat, drug-addled fool leading the rest of the fools who threw America under the bus. Hopefully, he'll continue to lead these delusional GOP puppets over the cliff and America can regain some integrity and economic stability.

All the Liberals out there there voted Obama into office are now trying to take away the freedom of free speech. Rush Limbaugh has said over and over that he hopes President Obama's POLICIES fail, not the person. It's time for Democrats and Republicans to open their eyes and not let the Far Left take this country into Socialism. First it's the bank, then it's health care. America better open up her eyes or we're not going to recognize the country we live in.

What a joke! The AFSCME......whatever. Rush.......whatever. So do you all really buy into this two-party scam?

Seems like it would be nice if, rather than name calling and mudslinging, we could talk about the issues. Liberals don't always have the right answers, and conservatives don't always have the right answers. We need both in this country. Not every leader is perfect. We'll just have to live with that. Both sides are doing their best to improve the country we all love.

The same sort of hitting below the belt that Senator DeMint used is showing up in these comments quite frequently, and from both sides. Doesn't it seem odd that these uncivilized rants are taking the place of informed discussion? Gets old after a while.

Well who else would they listen to? The brainless are listening to the only brain they have–a fat, multi-millionaire bigot who does not care about anyone but himself.

DOES RUSH LIMBAUGH EVER TALK ABOUT THE DRUG CARTELS IN AMERICA SINCE HE CAN'T VOTE ANY MORE?

CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME IF RUSH LIMBAUGH DRUG ARREST AT THE AIRPORT IN FLORIDA WERE FIXED OR THE OTHER DRUG ARREST HAVE BEEN FIXED WHEN HE HAD THE 200 PAIN KILLERS FROM DIFFERENT DOCTORS?

The unfortunate truth is that most Republicans share Limbaugh's ideology. It doesn't matter that Limbaugh's success is waning. His past influence was so powerful that now many ( a majority, which includes many Congressmen) have become like him in their willingness to express their beliefs in the nastiest and most extreme way possible. In fact many Republicans view anything less than utter ugliness to be weakness.
The real pity is that because Limbaugh and those like him keep up a constant chant of a liberal media bias, they are able to continue with their hateful diatribes and the division in our nation continues to widen. Limbaugh is a seditionist, though he cannot be prosecuted as such.

Rush Limbaugh – the new Joseph Goebbels.

I have to say, Sniffit, that I always look forward to your comments! Thank you!!

To my progressive friends,

Stop trying to shut Limbaugh up. It is counter-productive. Think about it: when you are in a debate you can always score points by taking your opponents argument to its extreme and exposing in as flawed. Linbaugh is doing us a favor on a daily basis through his buffoonery . Every time he opens his mouth it advances our cause. So just relax and don't try to bring him down he is a great spokesman for the republican party.

You have to be the biggest gullable of a moron to actually sit and listen to Rush Limbaugh for an extended period of time, and then actually say to yourself that his rhetoric fits into your persona and sounds logical!

What does it say about a person that feels empowered by belittling and demeaning someone else all the time, and hoping they fail? What do you lack as a person for you to feel that you can put down someone else and be happy about it, as if it's such a great accomplishment? As if it has defined a new accolade for you to brag about.

This is what defines Limbaugh. And this is what people consider their representation as a Republican? No wonder America has not progressed in the past few years as it should.

So now Rush is the new leader of the Republican party? Is that the high Rush or the sober one?

Rush is the perfect leader for the Conservative Republicans.
A lying, racist, hypocritical, perscription pill junkie. Just what they need to keep the Right Wing Nuts disconnected from reality.
Rush should run for Pres in 2012 and Hannity should be his VP.

Where were the GOPERs, and their adds when Bush ran up over $5 trillion dollars in debt?

Now that they lost the WH it's a problem?

Name calling by liberals.... I would expect more from people who supposedly pride themselves on tolerance and inclusion. The liberals are exposing themselves as the hatemongers they truly are.

What else would you expect from someone who cannot even control what goes in his mouth? Trash in, trash out. Hey Rush, I bet an Oxycontin would feel great right now. Just imagine that warm ooze as it spreads throughout you body. If I were you, I would go and take about ten at once. Imagine the buzz!...and you would be doing your country a HUGE favor to boot.

I love how many Rush supporters have spelling and grammar mistakes in their posts.

Yes, Limbaugh is an idiot. But judging from the speech of Jindal, who is supposed to be the GOP's rising star, Limbaugh might be the best spokesman the Republicans have.

JOIN YOUR MASTODON ANCESTORS IN EXTINCTION!!!!!!!!!

IT'S GONNA BE SWEET TO SWEEP THE REST OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OUT OF THE NATION'S CAPITOL, AND THE ROAD FOR 2010 WILL BE PAVED WITH THE BONES AND BLOOD OF THE RNC, TO SAY NOTHING ABOUT SEEING THE WHITEHOUSE IN 2012!!!!!

Good grief, the republicans are the most bitter bunch I have seen. There hoping for failure so they can have the "see we told you so" attitude. I wish they would stop IT!

Rush, go overdose on your oxycotin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FAT BOY IS A LOSER

I love the interesting guests and interviews on Rush's radio show. It would be so boring to just hear the same grumpy old man monologing partisan hate rants all day every day.

Rob, you're an idiot! Before you go ranting on articles here, please learn how to spell!

The GOP, specifially the CONSERVATIVE GOP, is without doubt the most repulsive group of people in America.

What kind of prescription pills is Rush taking this week? Leave Obama to politics Rush and you go back to the hobby of doctor shopping.

Meet your new friends Rush.

and the CONservative republicans did such a good job the last 8 years. read todays "worse GDP in 26 years". how can these people still hang on to their own whatevers????

proud army navy mom...And those who worship the OBAMANation...The Chosen LIB...OBAMA will put us into a depression (Mind and Money) with his Moveon, Daily KOS, Air America, strategy.

The preacher of hatred, intolerance and denial.

A very wealthy white guy.

Sounds like the GOP to me.

So now a radio idiotality is running the GOP. Wow. Didn't really how bad it is on the Repub side.

If the way to fix what Bush has wrought is socialism for a few years, then count me in. Doing what the Republicans suggest...more of what got us here in the first place...isn't going to cut it. Cutting taxes on the rich and powerful won't help the deficit. And cutting programs for people who desperately need help in this country WILL make matters worse. Our schools are falling apart, big oil and the coal industry rule the energy debate, and health care costs in the free enterprise system they love so much are bankrupting hard-working families. Come up with some NEW ideas.

Didnt the American sheep talk cues from the media in electing an intern into running the country??

These CPAC wackos are not "conservative" in any sense of the word that matters.

I am a Republican.

I don't listen to Limbaugh, he is a big mouth blowhard.

I want the Obama stimulus plan to work because that would be best for America.

I don't believe it will work because it has too much spending in it that will not stimulate and does not do enough to actually stimulate. I believe it will fail but do want it to work.

Obama's budget will have a 1.75 trillion deficit. This is on purpose. He complains about the deficit he inherited and then add over a trillion to it. That is not rational or credible. How is that different than the peolpe who bought homes they could not pay for.

Republican opposition to the Obama spendulus is based on rational thinking, not Limbaugh.

Limburger is evil and promotes evil, plain and simple.

GOP = Grand Out-dated & Pig-headed

YES WE CAN'T! Republican talking point!

Who cares. No one listens to Limbaugh anymore! Every knowledgeable and intelligent American knows he doesn't speak or represent America's views! He needs to be checked because he might be suffering from dementia. Seriously.

proud army navy mom,

I pity your ignorance. Try listening to Rush sometime, you may learn something.
Limbaugh and a few others are the only few who risk honest journalism, research and thought and have a clear sense as to what is really at stake, why do you think the liberals are trying to shut him up?
Millions of people who listen to Mr. Limbaugh (who incidently did not vote for Obama) are up to date as to what is happening to our country. Our freedoms are at stake, especially freedom of speech. The liberals want to keep you ignorant, they do not want you to know the truth, that is why they will try to get rid of Mr. LImbaugh.

Obama and his liberal buddies are taking our country down the wrong path of socialism. Only time will tell what our country will become if we continue down this path of destruction. Socialism when tried has ALWAYS failed.

Rash Limpballs is the pied piper, leading the lemmings over the cliff. All his talk is about divisiveness, exclusion, bitterness, and if they fall for it, they look forward to more defeat.

I haven't heard any suggestions on how to fix the problems we face from him or the fanatical religious right...Nothing

This creep makes money by talking trash and inciting people to riot. How noble! And he gets paid big money to do it. Lucky for him he lives in the U.S. where we have the First Amendment. If there weren't so many hate-filled losers in this country who enjoy listening to this bloated windbag he'd be off the air in a hurry.

I don't think this a revalation. Mr. Obama has not tried very hard to disguise his socialistic views. The questions is not if the president is a socialist but will he have the support to carry out his agenda? If he turns the economy around probably so , if not he and his policies are toast.

I don't think a reasonable person needs Limbaugh to see the stupidity in Obamas socialism.

It's pretty true.

Look at who they have speaking as CPac...RUSH and COULTER??

They are the voice of the Republican Extremist Party now.

@ Jon in CA, who said "Rush has what ever liberal on these boards will never have: Fame and Fortune"

That's fine. We have what he has lost: a conscience.

RUSH LIMBAUGH THE REPUBLICAN MESSIAH !!!

@ Jon in CA:

I have plenty of things Limbaugh does not have:

1- I am happily married to my wife( my first and ONLY)
2- I have children who I support through hard honest work
3- I am not a recovering drug addict
4- I have 2 college degrees
5- I am a well adjusted adult, unlike him

Why don't you and the rest of the Right-wingnut dittoheads who can't think for yourselves suck on that?

I am a registered Republican that voted for President Obama. My vote was a direct result of a Republican campaign that lacked new ideas and that relied on fear and hate. It is a shame that Senator McCain caved in to the so called Republican base. Why are we so fearful of change and why would anyone continue to listen to Rush Limbaugh? Without a radio show, Mr. Limbaugh would be just another frightened extremist who's voice would not make the news. His bouncing, closed minded rants do not serve the party. The Republican party would be better off to tune him out and think for themselves. Let's stop being so negative and put our country first. We lost the election, it's now time to restructure the party. Our strength lies in new ideas and our open minded core rather than a harmful, minority base.

I love the liberal response to this! Not a single solitary educated opinion of any form, no comment of intellectual substance, and absolutely hilarious. It's no wonder Rush is so capable of chewing you people up...apparently daily...because you have no point! I don't even listen to the guy, but it's obvious he has the true "brain children" of the liberal persuasion posting here today. Please keep going...I'll come back after lunch and enjoy the humor.

Hey! I am sooooo glad that Rush is help the GOP! It means that Dems will win again for the next decade! Yippie!

Obama has my full support. He is doing a great job and I look forward to seeing more of his centrist common sense ideas. Still reading the budget, and it is big. But it also is a continuation of stimulus as well as rebuilding broken things, like health insurance, our energy policy, our military/foreign policy.

Thanks to Bush, we finally have brought the republican strategy of rob from the poor and give to the rich to its final conclusion. It's a stupid philosophy.

The GOP, specifically the CONSERVATIVE GOP and their followers, are without doubt, the most repulsive group of people in America.

LOVE U RUSH. JUST WISH THE SLACKERS IN WASHINGTON HAD ONE FIFTH THE BRAIN POWER U HAVE.

Please. I like Limbaugh, but he is about as important as one termite chewing on an oak tree. There are just using him in the ad because they know that the very mention of Limbaugh gets liberals in a huff. Any chance they get to tie Rush to the GOP, they will do it.

Back when I was a kid people used to say that if you're not part of the solution you're part of the problem. Until Rush becomes part of any solution to the problems this country is facing he's just blowing hot air as far as I'm concerned.

@Doug in Jersey,

Stop drinking the Limbaugh kool aid. Everyone knows Limbaugh owns the GOP; hell, they pay his huge salary – they can't tell him to shut up, because he knows what they pay him to say.

The rethuglicans had an Alaskan Independent Party member on the VP ticket during the last presidential election.

Rush is like putting lipstick on a pig.

Can he even vote having the drug convictions?

Message to GOP and supporters:
Why would you listen to him?
Is he educated on worldy,complex issues or does he just use his KKK playbook.

By the way did he tell you that Jindal and Steele were tokens for the RNC and when they get what they want from (through) them, they are going to flush them too

Limbaugh is a DRUG ADDICT and the Republicians want to follow his lead??

This is very sad for this country.

I think that the man is smart , but he's exactly like Howard Stern. He would present a perfectly cogent idea and then turn around and call a woman a feminazi if he disagreed with her. Howard Stern would analyze a topic and then tell a woman to show her boobs. Their actions consistently undermined their opinions.

Rush completely ripped on the use of illegal drugs. Lo and behold Rush becomes an addict, but no ripping himself for his "weakness".
Mr. Social Conservative has been married and divorced three times. No backlash form the social conservatives on that one. The ultimate "Do as I say, not as I do" leader.

CNN please quit doing a hack job on Rush. Rush, your the man!!!! You dont think Obama listens to Bill Ayers or George Soros give me a break

This is a great ad! The Dems need to continue playing offense.

What's the difference between Rush Limbaugh and the Hindenburg?

Rob...No fatter then you hairy MAMA.

I have respect for true and honest conservatives (regardless of party). I don't typically agree with them, but I can typically understand their points of view and opinions. Mr. Limbaugh, however, represents that form of neoconservativism that is ruining any respect that I can have for the Republican party. I think it is important to have an opposition voice in any political arena. I just fear that if conservatives can't find a more intelligent spokesperson, then that opposing voice that keeps the "ins" honest is really going to fade to obscurity. Please, Republicans do a better job of finding someone to argue your points...Steele, Jindal, Palin and Limbaugh just aren't representing you very well.

Suzanne – I guess Barrack does feel like he is the messiah....Thinks he can resolve the problems millions with cash of 5!

Limbaugh gets to try out the talking points, everyone knows he is crazy. Sadly the Repubs just pick up the ones that work and run with it. Of course none of them bother to think beyond talking points that will get them reelected.

we the people want results for all the people not just a few

I'm amazed at the obsession with Limbaugh. The man is a character played on the radio on an entertainment show yet he continues to draw the fire of those on the far left. Who cares what he says, he's trying to get ratings, just like Saturday Night Live or American Idol. Nothing like free advertising though, but can we please end the campaign and get on with getting the country back on track?

That's the GOP braintrust? A failed PR guy?

The world has moved on and left the GOP behind. When they talk it sounds like they're stuck in 1979.

Criminal Drug Addicts make great GOP leaders!!!

Can this guy be any more hateful and damaging? And he actually has an audience and gets paid millions of dollars a year by his network to spout his psychotic thoughts out to millions of his brain dead listeners!! Could someone please tell me who his sponsors are so I can be sure I do not buy their products. Thanks.

Interesting! Limbaugh is leading the phony charge against the Obama administration! Let us see just how long Limbaugh can leave himself exposed like this. The Jindal speech was horrendous and only Limbaugh is out there supporting this situation. Leaving himself exposed like this just might issue calls for his political ambitions which he really doesn't want because he makes far more money and influence in his talk show format. It appears that it is only Limbaugh this time to leave the charge up San Juan Hill. Hopefully for him there may people behind him but don't count on it! Thus Limbaugh's problem of winnowing out there on his limb bough!

This illiterate gas bag should be put on trial for sedition. In some countries of this world he'd have already faced a firing squad or hang mans noose

Since when do intelligent people take cue from trash talking shock jocks...oh wait were talking about Republicans here... For those who are smart enough to think for them selves pleas go look up our GNP for the last 60 years and note who was in power when it has dropped...Including the largest drop in US history....You guessed it...Republicans... But they just want to help us right?

We have more serious issues to be concerned about than Limbaugh – if you follow what is going on we have issues such as our Constitution being attacked , specifically 1st and 2nd Amendement by our own Leaders. America will catch on and it appears they realize they made the "mistake of all mistakes" in Nov 2008.

It's hilarious that the "voice" of the Republican party is a pill popping radio host.

Republicans, are you high?

WAKE UP.

Rush has what ever liberal on these boards will never have:

Fame and Fortune

suck it libs! hahahaaa

How is it appropriate to be affiliated with this guy?

better Rush than Obummer

Of course Rush Limbaugh wants Obama to fail he is a racists, and can not stand like many other Republicans that a bright, intelligent black man is our President. Typical...

I am very proud of our President, Mr.Obama

That's okay, Rush. He wants you to fail too, you big ol' Oxycontin junkie, you.

The GOP is ran by Limbaugh just as much as the executive branch is now ran by William Ayers and Rev. Wright. Just the truth, which lib calls a hate crime.

Rush has clarified his stance in wanting Obama to fail. He wants his
making this country into a 'Socialist' country to fail. Of course many of
you want socialism, because you have your little hands out, wanting a big handout.

huh...speaking of pork...

The similarities between this pill popping blowhard, Sarah Palin, the republican party in general and the Nazi rabble-rousers of pre-war 1920's Germany are truly frightening. How did we arrive here ?

So what's new. I have thought that for years!!

Why is CNN giving this defeatist print space??

Democrats control the White House and Congress, and they still complain about Limbaugh. These guys should get a life.

I hardly recognized him without his hoodie...

This article shows exactly what's wrong with the GOP. Why they would listen to Limbaugh or "take cues" from him is beyond belief. I hope they keep doing it, though, because it will insure Democratic victories for years to come.

There's a smart move on the part of the GOP. Drunk for a president and druggie to guide them now. The Reps are taking a cookbook approach to politics. Now if they could just find an ultra conservative female, minority, disabled war veteran from an Ivy League school earning $30K per year, they'll have the perfect candidate.

On the other hand, they could listen to America and do the will of the people and not the will of the party.

I don't know anyone who worship(s) him. There are many very intelligent people in our great country who believe he makes some very valid points in his comments though.

Rush is a fat facist!

Rush Limbaugh is the defacto leader of the GOP. There is really no debating this fact.
When he says "jump" The republican party says "How high?"
It seems the only one who doesn't know who is leading the GOP is The GOP. Rush wants Sara Palin in 2012. The GOP will give him just what he wants.
Every now and then, I feel so sorry for republicans. They are mired in ignorance and blinded by their own arrogance. They don't know where they went wrong. They don't see a need to admit they were wrong on a few things and make corrections. I don't even think they believe in correction of errors.
We dems and liberals need the GOP. How would you know the light if not for the darkness? How would you know what was right if you never saw what was wrong?

And this should underscore the limited IQ of republicans.

I just love how liberals try to characterize those who listen to Limbaugh (I don't) as mindless sheep who can't think for themselves. The real reason millions of folks listen to him is because those ordinary folks finally have someone who can sum up their feelings and opinions. These good, hardworking Americans are worried, scared, and angry about the way things are going in this country, and having a voice out there brings a sense of empowerment and relief to them.

You can badmouth Rush all you want, because it doesn't hurt him or his message. After all, I'm still going to call Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow (who definitely takes the "fantasy" out of lesbianism!), and the likes a bunch of bitter partisan hacks who are only good at one thing– kissing Obama's ***!

TO PROUD ARMY NAVY MOM:

AND I CAN TELL FROM YOUR COMMENT, THE SAME HOLDS TRUE FOR YOU ALSO MADAM, AND YOU ARE MOST LIKELY AMONG THAT PROUD GROUP AF WOMEN THAT GET ALL TJNGLEY WHEN YOU SEE "THE GREAT ONE"(obama).

does this pig just keep getting fatter or what ?

That is the state of our country...where we listen to hate-filled drug addicts and religous zealots...Oh wait, thats just Republicans!

If Obama is our "messiah" then Limbaugh is their "Jim Jones".

does he resemble a Star Wars figure?

Limbaugh, oh deliver-er of evil and all things wrong with the religious right and taking too much Oxycotton, please continue to be the wise one of the republican party, you and shaft though how you two are the spokespeople is anyone's guess, are doing all you can to bring down the GOP

and that makes me happy

oh and long live Palin, she is the gift that keeps on giving, har har har

Rush will end up running the GOP officially before too long...right now he is just their puppet master!!!!

satan comes in all disguises Limbaugh included

Rush is a big fat idiot who is a drug addict. He is an alarmist who cannot stand the thought of a black man in the White House. Only ignorant people listen to the man. Most of his listeners don't bother to read a newspaper, watch the news, etc. They rely on him for their information without even realizing how biased he is. I believe Rush Limbaugh is a danger to American society.

Amen on Limbaugh being silly. His only real agenda is to make $$$$. Either by pleasing the big business crowd or by increasing the number of people who listen to or watch him by making outrageous comments that many times are not or are half truths. He knows the uproar that this is going to cause .... he also knows it will increase his income as more supporters and haters listen!! Turn him OFF .... tell his sponsors that you will not buy their products!!!! Just DON'T listen to or watch him.

Really sad when people get there advise from a self loathing pill popper. LOL lol Rush is a total idiot.

This a MORON,look at its head its so big like pumpkin.HOPELESS MAN

Limbaugh said he wanted obama's socialist agenda to fail not the country. The facts mean little or nothing to the democrats. Everyone needs to quit going along with obama or this country will fail thanks to obama and the democrat controlled congress. I hope we can hold on to this country until mid term elections.

Loved the ad. To think the republican party is supporting this man shows us how out of touch with reality they are.
They insult our intelligence and put the survival of their party over
the survial of our country and us.
What a bunch of hypocrits!!

A question of the blind ( not to speak of the vicious, bitter and very dumb) leading the blind and at least very dumb!

Rush is a white Jesse Jackson, always stirring the pot to keep everyone upset.it beats working for a living, I guess, as long as there are these dwebs who listen to him.

The GOP is so incredibly out of touch with America right now that I don't think all the blame can go to one bad talk-radio personality. As a whole they seem to have just stopped thinking.

Al Franken called it right before!

Just another example of how broken the Republican Right (which is not to say the same as the Republican Party) really is. The Republicans are edging away from people like Rush. Their downfall in the last election was due in part to aligning with broken, psychologically-damaged people like him. Take your marching orders from Rush, and you'll march off a political cliff.

Good conservatism will follow. It will be the first since Reagan.

Wow, it's nice to know that CPAC has scheduled a COMEDY act Saturday night...i am sure Rush will put the audience into hysterics with his wacky and offbeat observations of fringe American life from his little narrow mind.

AGAIN.......instead of helping or presenting ANY sort of alternatives to our current crisis, Republicans sit on the sidelines and call names.....it must be horrible to live in such small-minded fear.

Rush is divisive and I hope the GOP keeps him front and center. The majority of Americans do not believe what Rush is saying, but he will help ensure that Independents vote Democrat and motivate the Democratic base in 2010 and 2012.

One word....

PIG!

What a joke. Is this what the Republican party is reduced to? They follow the lead of a nimrod radio talk show host spewing daily pizzle? This is worse than followers of Perky Palin drooling on her every word. With this kind of intellect the GOP will have absolutely NO credibility for the foreseeable future.

Limbaugh, the conservative intellectual leader of the GOP. What a joke! GOP will continue to lose elections.

Smells like fascism to me. The GOP are going to continue to drown in their hatred of minority groups and people who are less fortunate.

When the GOP say they wish Obama to fail that means they want AMERICA TO FAIL. Now who's the terrorist?

So the GOP takes their marching orders from an obese, drug-addicted, lying snake-oil saleman. How appropo!

It'll be like lemmings walking off a cliff into the sea and drowning. I love it!

Nice picture. See kiddies? That's the face of evil, ignorance and self-righteous hate. The Bloated Bloviating Blowhard himself, seated at the right hand of the devil.

Republicans seem to WANT to be the party of nothing. They certainly are not taking any sort of steps to try and re-build their following. They have gone so far right that only the loons are still following them. I love it of course, it just cements the future of the Democratic party. Rush and ann coulter are NUTS, and as long as they run their ignorant traps, and the republicans in congress let them appear to be the leaders, well the better for the country, because they gaurantee their demise.

First of all why you spreading rumors? That is not what rush said he said i want OBAMA'S Policy's to fail!!!!! BIG difference! And what if they taking ideas from rush what is wrong with that ? It's a lot better then taking ideas from Polosi or REID! No wounder you wanna shut down talk radio!

Rush is a big fat idiot and so are the people who worships him.

Are you dems scared of Rush or what? I never listen to the man – I'm quite capable of gathering the facts and researching things on my own. I have come up with the unmistaken conclusion that Nobama is going to be a complete failure with his spend, spend and more spend mantra! He is quickly sending this country into bankruptcy and the dems are backing him. Do you people really think that we have to have someone tell us how to think like you do? You bunch of liberal fools will follow Nobama around, hanging on his every word, right into the poor house!

And this is news? Sounds like political pandering to me...do I sense some Repbulican hate going on here?

Yet another example of the lies of this decietful President that we have. "I'm going to bring all Americans and all parties together!" This is a great way to do it, Mr Obama!

Oh, and I did read that the ad is not from Barrack....but are truly naive enough to think that he had nothing to with it or give it his blessing??

And this is news? Sounds like political pandering to me...do I sense some Repbulican hate going no here?

GOP why don't you allowed our NEW PRESIDENT OBAMA fix your mess BUSH has done to This Great country idiots

More fuel for the liberal's fire. Good going, CNN.

I'm glad we have Rush Limbaugh to speak for us in this country.
He is one voice to combat the united socialist activism from the mainstream news media. I hope more of the republicans in Washington are listening to him.

I'd rather eat a roll of aluminum foil everyday for a year than listen to Limbaugh spew his right wing vitriol.

Rush is often obnoxious and partisan in his radio show. I can usually agree with only about half of what he says and I never particularly liked the way he says it. Unfortunately, right now he is absolutely right. Right about the pork bill we called stimulus. Right about Pelosi, Reid and maybe Obama. Right about the mounting debt. Right about the direction towards socialism. I guess this time I'm actually gonna have to say "GO RUSH."

When will the Republicans understand that Rush is an ENTERTAINER only looking out for his own pocket book. It's all about ratings and he could care less about America. He flunked out of school for pete sake and admits being a drug addict!

Rush Limbaugh should know all about pork, he's the biggest pig this side of the pen.

Rush is an A_ _. So are the Republicans that follow him. He has helped the Republicans lose the House and Senate because these fools have followed what he has been saying and the United States is in the toilet because of Republicans following this dummy. I think he is back on the drugs that he's been using and must have given some to the Repubs that followed him and are still following him.

This is the main reason that I changed my voting to Democrat because of stupid stuff like this. I am sure many others have done the same.

Surely , their is somone better because all Rush does is complain
we need someone to give better ideas than the president we can't
act like a bunch of babies every time he has a new plan we have got to show the american people that our solutions are better untill we do that were screwed.

Shoot the messenger instead of addressign the message? is that the best they can do? Love or hate any or all Republicans, but the focus should be on the merits of the debate and not what people think of Rush or Bush or Hannity or Newt or whomever.

Otherwise, I might as well say I don't agree with Obama's policy becuase I don't like Keith Olberman.

And this is a surprise to who? Given that Limbaugh is louder and less couth doesn't mean they share the same ideas. Republicans claim to be conservative and Limbaugh claims to be... Well, something that I don't think he is. He certainly doesn't speak for a large portion of America.

Just what are Limbaugh's credintials anyway?

How can anyone listen to a man about not expanding government when he can't even govern the amount of food he puts in his fat mouth.

Republicans AKA the few the proud, the demented. How appropos for Limbaugh to be their mental guru as they follow the sign of the burning cross!!! The mentally sick, lame & lazy need something to do so society won't step on their "Dittos". What a childish group of losers...

I hear the FAT lady singing right now.....I can't wait till 2010 and 2012 when the GOP realizes they've been punked out by Rush Limbaugh himself!!! This is going to be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!

While I do not agree that the Fairness Doctrine is truly fair, Rush Limbaugh certainly makes me yearn for its reimplementation.

Truth in advertising, Republicans can't really argue with this ad. I hope they keep listening to the Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, and wha's left of the hypocritical religious right, it makes the democrats look better and better. If Obama's plans work they can wander in the political wilderness for the next 20 years.

Rush Limbaugh is the true leader of the Republican Party.

What a horrifying thought.. but not surprising.

It just means that Obama will be re-elected by a landslide in 2012.

That will make this formerly Independent moderate – now a registered Democrat – very happy!

So it has come down to having Limbaugh,Palin and Joe the Plumber to lead the Republican Party. WOW

Getting a little old now.

Rush Limbaugh is now the leader of the Republican pack and they take their orders from him as they have nobody else to listen to. It is sad what the Grand Old Party has come to that they have to listen to that pill popping gas bag for their inspiration, mainly because he has such a loud voice and just about nothing else.

We need to listen to somebody other than Obumbler who is leading us right down the toilet.

In the words of one of the greatest philosophers ever seen on film, "Who’s the more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him?"

I love it when people declare the leader of the Republican Party to be Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity. These guys are both nutty in the head. They specialize in hate mongering and spreading propaganda. How could any person with any common sense listen to the likes of them? They are decdent and disgusting!!

Limbaugh is the leader of the new facist wing of their party,he wants to be the leader of the new world order.

Republicans should run the same add. But just add TO SOCIALISM after the NO. Why? Because you can see how well it's worked for Europe and South America.

Somebody has to tell the truth before it is too late and we permanently screw up the US with loser socialism from Europe. Most of you people out there are so fricking STUPID...you listen to this glib-tongued crook from the Chicago (corrupt) political machine.

I can picture him crawling up a hill squeeling (Deliverance).

Yep. Rush is not a bright man. He has no education beyond high school. He just sat behind a radio mic his whole life. And this is who the GOP follows. Very typical. Whilst Obama surrounds himself with intellectuals and people who have made it like Warren Buffet, Hilary Clinton, and Bill Clinton, look at who the GOP listens to.

The ad only states the obvious, with the repub's stated agenda from the bald, bloated bonehead that hopes "Obamba fails" and the obstrutionist attitudes of all but 3 repubs in Congress, this is not news to the majority of Americans.

They all have fat jowls and double or triple chins. No hunger in the republican party.

There's no GOP leaders. They're a tag team of knee-clubbing elites.

AFSCME is a government employee organization? What the F??

I've seen it, and it speaks for itself!

Rush gets ready for his close-up at the Conservative Political Action Committee this weekend (which is a collection of nuts so nutty even Sarah Palin stayed away).

The party of idiots. The republicans need a completely new base. When you start taking orders from Rush Limbaugh, you've lost complete credibility and it just makes it look like NONE of you are suited to lead. Rush wants the president's plan to fail. I guess all of the GOP feel the same way. Sometimes you just need to know when to shut up.

obamma is a president that is worse then Bush! He is leading us to ruin.

Apparently the spokesmen for the Republican party are a soccer mom with a bachelor's degree in communication, an unlicensed plumber, and an ex-disk jockey with a high school degree who flunked everything in a one-year attempt at a higher education.

It's unfortunate that the fat Oxycotin blimp gets attention and therefore relevance but it is true. The GOP must get the almighty approval from the gas-bag before they move on anything. The exceptions to that are now targets of his vapid bile and will probably be voted out next time around.

Okay so you have a NFL Franchise that is only averaging 2 wins a season for the past 5 years. The stadium is old, you have bad players, the coach is terrible and ticket sales are at a record low. Do you A) Keep the same stadium, same players, same coach and just lower ticket prices, lower concessions prices, lower parking prices, use the same advertising budget and hope people will start coming to the games or B) Build a new stadium, get really good free agents (which cost), Hire a great and well known Coach (which costs) and put more money into advertising. Well let me see I guess the republicans would do option A. Hmmmmm

If more people listened to Limbaugh–we would not be slipping down a slope to socialism.ALL OF HIS DETRACTORS ARE SCARED SILLY THAT HE IS RIGHT–HENCE THE SMEARS FROM MSM.
