Obama Vs. Limbaugh





“We need to accept this decision was the grand jury's to make. There are Americans who agree with it, and there are Americans who are deeply disappointed, even angry. But I join Michael's parents in asking anyone who protests this decision to do so peacefully.”

He had 20 minutes of inane ramblings that were designed subtly to feed the rage. And he could have done so much. You do have to admit that he is, when he applies himself, a very persuasive and talented speaker and orator, when he applies himself. If it's on the teleprompter and the words he wants to use are there, then he can do it really well.”

I have to define understandable in the way Obama meant it. He meant it in a way of justifying it

. . . was he listening to the same speech I heard?

"Inane ramblings that were design to subtly feed the rage"? I think I missed that part.

Rush should get professional help. His hatred of accomplished black men is making him delusional.

and has been a pestilence since the 80's, and in the insane US media market he makes big money from it.

I don't appreciate it, at all, that even on DU people are still promoting that pestilence in 2014.

There's no excuse for it. So stop.

who buy radio stations to keep the fool on the air. KTLK in LA is where I used to listen to Stephanie Miller and Randi Rhodes. The station was bought by wealthy right wingers, plays the fat man and has no ratings. The purpose is not to promote fathead, the purpose is to get any trace of liberal, independent thought off the radio, and it's working.

The current right wing is the biggest threat this nation has ever faced. It's time to wake up America. The Nazi storm troopers are waiting in the wings for the time when the right controls that one last bastion they have yet to acquire, the White House.
