Congressman Gingrey, Let me assure you conservatives want you to fight liberalism and its manifestation, Hussein, tooth and nail. Don’t get caught up in trying to make friends in the Politico and the rest of the Washington press. I have been one of your supporters and constituents, and I promise that you and your colleagues can be replaced. R. Gable Carrollton

Congressman,

It’s constituents like R. Gable who sat silent these past 8 years while the conservative party was nothing but a rubber stamping manifestation of liberalism. Where was he then. Instead he waits until his party falls off the map; and then, he wants to make a hollow promises to threaten your position. What he really don’t understand is that you are a representative in a time when alot of republicans did not make it. I say continue to represent the majority of us. Thanks…..L. Peace.

Dr. Gingrich, even though I no longer live in Marietta I am still an American citizen with grave concerns. For each of these gov’t bail-outs the recipient is “in the gift giver’s pocket”. We do not need the gov’t having influence on decision making in these cases. Worse than influence is directives from the gov’t to these entities. I implore you NOT to vote for this massive amount of money, or any amount of money under the guise of stimulating the economy.. Let a few banks close, those remaining may be a little more prudent. Give the middle class a chance to be a true middle class, the inflation which will follow the printing of all these trillions of dollars will erase that middle class of citizens. Companies which are floundering do NOT need money from the gov’t. They need a new administrative board. Respectfully, Ann Woodward

Obama is scared of Rush or Hannity. He would not do an interview with either since he would be taken to task on any debating issue.

The funny thing is: if B.H. Obama is hardly aware of Rush, why did HE bring up, “El Rushbo” when talking to a congressman? Sounds like he is concerned, to me. But, hey, it’s ok, so long as Obama gets the massive welfare package pushed through. That should buy enough votes (and condoms) to propel him through the reelection campaign.

Hey COPYLEFT, perhaps you should spend a little time doing some of that “thinking” you are typing about…BTW, what are you thinking…when you support this so called “stimulus package”? Tell me..what in this package is more than just a bunch of pork projects and monetary give-mes for Obama’s buddies? Do you think ANYTHING that is in this package will actually go towards the economy? And how will taxing the working class into oblivion going to help our economy?? You know we will (if you even pay taxes) be taxed like never before…(you understand that the gov’t will raise taxes significantly to pay for this, right? I mean money doesn’t grow on trees they are going to have to get the money from somewhere, right? I am a small business owner and I can tell you right now…if my taxes increase (payroll and otherwise), there will be employees of mine losing their jobs and joining the ranks of the unemployeed. Guess who will be paying for their unemployment checks??? The tax payer. So explain to me why this will help our economy? Meanwhile, all of Obama’s friends that got this “stimulus package” will be laughing all the way to the bank. Yep…still feel good about the “stimulus package” COPYLEFT???

Is this a case of mistaken identity or mistaken ideology? Or a severe case of “MegaDittos” outrage? I’d guess that many of you so-called conservatists don’t realize that invoking the name of Rush is a curse among liberals. So, when the President refers to that super-clever, audience-driven, struggling-for-relevance talk show host as an architect of the incessant language of neo-cons, it isn’t flattering. As for the blatant use of a coded or disguised ethnic slur by Mike Turner: The AJC should be ashamed of itself for allowing that.

Limbaugh and Hannity energize the liberals and embarass conservatives. Democrats would be crazy to force them off the air.

That old man is scared to death of Obama. He and Sean cannot get over the fact that America does not belong to old white men like themselves. America belongs to ALL people regardless of race, creed, color or religion. A black President makes them believe they have lost control.

The most effective cohesion we Conservatives have is through talk radio, and to weaken it is wrong.

I’m very disappointed in Rep. Gingrey. Why did he not attack Obama for meddling in his party? Why not give Obama advice on how to get along with Republicans? Gingrey’s defense of a Republican leadership afraid to champion Conservative principles is feeble.

Why was it necessary to publicly attack another Conservative (Limbaugh) when he knows the news media and Obama want to drive a wedge among us? If he wants to persuade Limbaugh, why not do so privately?

Has Gingrey thrown in with Washington and forgotten the folks at home?

They seem to have an abundance of cash, they claim to have the American way of life in their best interest. If they belive in what they say so much tell them to put their time and money into a campaign to run for office and get into a position to show it! Until then their just hacks to the process. Also can someone out there tell me why they have shows that spew racism 4 hours a day? I can’t think of no other minority radio personalities, that have this latitude.

Before you ridicule the stimulus package and comment that we should simply let the mega bank’s fail, have you given any thought to the fact that this would automatically cost the taxpayers about the same as the stimulus package but without any ability to recoup the funds expended. Right now, the funds that have been expended to the mega banks is secured by preferred stock. Additionally, the banks have to make payments on the funds at 5% interest to the government. If we followed your advice and simply let the mega banks fail just remember that the deposits of these banks are insured. On the date that the bank failed, the government would have to pay all insured accounts immediately. Based on the deposit base of both Citi and BOA, the cost to the taxpayers would be about as large as the stimulus package. However, since it would be a payout, the government would not get that money back. The government would get the assets (aka the toxic assets). The fact of the matter is that like it or not, a few banks in this country are so large that their is no viable way to allow them to fail. So choose stimulus or simply allow them to fail and pay the money out to cover deposits with little chance of recouping the funds. Remember that the two times the government has run a program similar to TARP (one time in the depression and the RTC in the 80’s and 90’s) the government not only recouped all the funds expended but actually made a profit. So your choice is to let them fail (mega banks) and payout the funds in insurance coverage or provide stimulus and have a chance to recoup the funds.

Can’t say I’m surprised at the mudslinging from the Left and the Right. It’s much the same on the blogs I frequent. It’s ineffective, childish, and a waste of time.

While I have not read the current “stimulus” package in it’s entirety, From what I have read the only thing that will be significantly “stimulated”, IMO, will be inflation.

Businesses create jobs and grow GDP, yet there is little in the package that I have seen that will grow proper businesses. Giving folks at the poverty level “credits” is a nice jesture, but it absolutely will do nothing to spur the economy.

The problem arises when the faithful foot soldiers in the war against librulism enter their legislator’s phone number into the speed dial of their telephone. Upon command by Rush, Laura, Bill and Sean the faithful warriors pick up their phone and repeatedly dial their legislator like some giddy preteenager casting votes for their favorite American Idol contestant. After the flood of calls are received by the legislator’s staff, they go ape$hit. The legislator is immediately notified and counseled by their staff. You gotta stop this! The phones are going wild! Don’t cave in! You’ll be toast! The politician believes that because they received 2,000 calls in twenty minutes that 2,000 people are against __(fill in the blank).

Hey Harry, I like the way you appoint yourself (3 times) as an “Adult” and the rest of the posters here are stupid rubes. If this is what it takes to make yourself feel better, go ahead. People who display these traits usually have an inferiority complex so compensate by denigrating others. My prediction is the public will turn on Obambi about June or so when it becomes apparent that his so called “solutions” are not working and the economy is siting in the bottom of the toilet. Before then he will get a pass as he continues to blame Bush for the inherited mess. Obama is a Marxist who got elected by the Lame Stream Media.They also picked the worst Republicrat candidate (Juan McAmnesty) to insure a liberal victory. My advice is buy gold…Bela Pelosi and company are going to destroy the remaining value of the dollar, and by the time the general public wakes up to this insanity it will be too late.

Rush needs to shut his mouth COOL DOWN and learns to work with people kindly for a change. Can’t we change? Can’t we work together for a change? Why is he so bitter? Whatever happened in his past he does not have to take it out on Obama or does he just hate BLACK PEOPLE?

I think Rush is the perfect spokesman for the GOP.

As long as he is spewing venom from his fat piehole the right-wing party will stay stuck in the South and will never again win votes from those moderate Americans who actually decide elections.

Keep it up Rush, you da Man! We Democrats are shakin’ in our boots!

Donovan — Get a life. Th defict spending benefited a few groups close to Cheney and Bush. Does the phrase “sole source procurement” mean aything to you? How ‘bout “Haliburton”? I’m a Vietnam veteran and my son was in Iraq in 2003 as a Marine military police officer. So, don’t talk to me about what we ought to be spending money on. But if you wish to talk about it, fine. Look at how much money we spent (and keep spending) to fight a war we had no business waging and no plans for ending. Even among conservatives, you’ve got to be one of the last ones to believe we should have fought it there. We should have fought it in Afghanistan, not Iraq, because that’s where the ones who attacked us on 9/11 ran to hide. Explain that brilliant military decision. Now, we’ve got more than a handful of problems in Afghanistan because we were busy making money for a bunch of Cheney’s friends. By the way, since you feel so compelled to support a coward like Cheney, why not do a little research on what he did during the Vietnam War to keep his fat out of the fire. When asked a few years ago why he didn’t volunteer during the Vietnam War, he responded with, “I had more important things to do with my life.” That coward should tell that to the friends and family of the 58,000+ American heroes who died while he sat out the war.

If Limbaugh and Hannity are so off their rockers with their speaking points, then why is it they get singled out personally by the administration and the other liberal trough sloppers? If those guys are so out of touch, then why does anybody even talk about them or participate in their shows? The answer is that Rush and Sean are correct in the majority of their opinions, and as it is that truth is detrimental to the liberla agneda, these voices of dissent are considered dangerous. The liberal leaders are trial lawyers who are trained that truth goes only as far as what is proveable in a court of law, and as such, can define truth to being whatever supports their own personal agenda, without any sense of morality or personal responsiblilty. They can then further define that any opinion derived from a moral value is a lie since they refuse to recognize morality as a basis for rational judgement. And this type of shameless and corrupt distortion of logic and morality is exaclty the type of character that America has chosen to lead. Good choice there USA :)

Let me get this straight: the Dems have spent the last eight years shouting that it was their duty to be the voice of opposition and the disenfranchised… and how unfair the big, bad GOP was to them. In fact, the (likely) incoming Senator from Minnesota made his political name hurling potshots at George Bush and the GOP on his (failed) radio show. And now we’re not supposed to see the irony of their calls for ‘unity’ and an end to ‘partisan politics’? Now it’s acceptable to do whatever necessary to silence their opposition (Limbaugh and the 59 million who didn’t vote for ‘Change’)? Any objection (no matter how small) to their historically gargantuan, pork-filled ‘stimulus’ bill will NOT be tolerated.

After eight years as petty, obstructionist whiners, the Democrats aren’t about to let a little thing like an overwhelming electoral victory spoil their fun. They will continue to whine until everyone sees things their way. Or else.

If they wanted to stimulate the economy – the government could do some if not all of the following:

Give themselves (from the president to the lowest government employee) a 15 – 20% pay decrease. Set the example.

Put congress on the same retirement program as the rest of America. Equality! Also gives the American tax payer confidence in there leaders.

Make it a law that all members of congress must fly on commercial airlines. This would help the airlines and reduce governmental costs.

Get back to being civil servants and not civil masters – pass laws to protect people’s rights – to include the business persons right to earn a profit.

Why do so many believe that the Republicans have it right? We are in an unjustified war and the economy is in meltdown. To read many of these posts and to listen to Republican talking head apologists, one would think Republicans made life better.

Look. Republican ideas killed over 4000 American servicemen and women. Republican ideas run up $10 billion a month in fighting an unjustified war. Republicans cut taxes and told the US people to “go shopping” while the middle class income fell since year 2000, housing prices grew and grew, and regulators didn’t regulate.

Do you all think they just didn’t take it far enough? If they could just do more tax cuts, more deregulation, declare more wars, things will get better?

Rush Limbaugh lives alone, except for his cat and his servants, in a 24,000sf house, which is one of five on his property, and drives a $450,000 car, one of many in his collection, to and from work each day. His estate has been described as eerily similar to the palaces of Saddam Hussein. Isn’t the way a man chooses to live his life the clearest indication of his basic moral character?

Now my brothers are fighting in other foreign lands for our very way of life. Your kind spat on us when we came home from that war, yet you ran behinds us after September 11th. Now you disgrace this nation when her sons and daughters are in harms way. Whether or not you like President Bush, he had the hearts and minds, and respect of our brothers and sisters in the military.

Spare me the lectures about Republican deficits, I’ve spent the last eight years watching them grow, afraid this was exactly where it would put us. It was reckless and irresponsible, the ‘emergency stimulus’ we were suckered into just 4 months ago was nothing but a scam and the GOP deserves to be on the outside looking in now for participating in it. But don’t tell me that the answer to our problems is to buy into an EVEN BIGGER stimulus scam that will double the debt every year and obligate us to increased entitlements for the rest of our lives and the lives of our children.

The Democrats have NEVER been about balanced budgets (the Clinton budgets were balanced by GOP gridlock) and this rush to dig us even deeper into debt is classic, unchecked Democratic fiscal policy… earmarks for everyone!

Rush Limbaugh has a better economic plan than anyone that would pull this country out of this mess that would start on day ONE it went into effect. If Obama wants to be bi-partisian the only fair way would be to let the democracts spend 54% of the money (he won the election with 53% of the vote plus Rush says let them have the other 1% that voted for wacko’s and the the republicans spend 46% of the money..The republicans would start by giving tax cuts (mainly capital gains and corporate tax cuts etc)..So the democracts will spend their 540 billion the way they want to and the republicans will spend their 460 billion their way..The stock market will start soaring on day one..Let the people see which plan works!! Rush will even call it the Obama-Limbaugh plan..By the way, Rush is NOT a racist and is over his personal problems long ago. He is a true AMERICAN that cares about his country..

All,

Last week, President Obama had a meeting with GOP leaders in which he warned them against listening to Rush Limbaugh — “you can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done.”

As Brent Bozell said,

“There is something eerie, Big Brother-like in Obama’s actions. He will deny it, of course, but this is an attack on Limbaugh’s and all conservatives’ right to free speech. He wants to set the stage for the Fairness Doctrine. And he’s doing it through character assassination with the goal of making Rush “public enemy number one.”

Meanwhile, the liberal media have stepped up their attacks on Rush as well. MSNBC’s Chris Matthews even questioned Rush’s patriotism, asking “Does Rush Limbaugh hate this country?”

This after Rush dared to say he hoped Obama’s socialist agenda would fail!

If liberals had their way, we would only be allowed to read leftist news and listen to leftist radio. They know that the only opposition to enacting their radical left-wing agenda is conservative talk radio.

And let me be clear, there is something more to this drumbeat attack against Rush. They will deny it, of course, but this is an attack on all conservatives’ right to free speech.

They are setting the stage for the Fairness Doctrine.

And they are doing it through character assassination. The attack on Rush personally and on all conservative talk has only just begun.

Again, if McCain were Black, I would have voted for him.

Enough Said.

It would be prudent for Rep. Gingrey and others to actually listen in on Limbaugh and Hannity’s programs if they would like to learn a little bit about conservatism, and less about political parties. The only reason the Republican party exists today is because of the conservative stance when it comes to public policy. What GWB did as president, along with the lawmakers in Congress, was dispicable. Liberal economic policy and conservative social policy does not make one a conservative. Where Obama was smart is that he ran as a social and economic liberal, which inticed many to vote for him. Unfortunately, his liberal “bottom-up economy” will be the undoing of this nation. More and more people are looking for handouts from the government, instead of going out and working for it. If you need a job, you can have mine! Don’t punish those that have worked their tails off for what they have by taking it. And if you feel the ‘rich’ are the evil ones in this nation, check what the percentages are there.

This time of economic upheaval will forever be a stamp of change in America. Not exactly the change Pres. Obama was speaking of, but of the dying out of the Republican Party. There is an opening of historic proportions for a new, majority party, and that is a party of economic conservatism and liberal socialism.

Look at him yourself. Phil Gingrey is a pathetic fraud of a man…from having gone to medical school to dodge the Vietnam draft to the “enhanced” Southern accent so typical of Roman Catholics’ trying to seem “Southern” - an impossiblity after Rome’s attempt to destroy the Protestant, Jew-loviing, Jeffersonian South using Roman Catholic W.T. Sherman and his legions of immigrant Irish, Italian and German Roman Catholics…after Thomas Jefferson made the importation of slaves, from the global slave trade Rome had controlled for two thousand years, illegal.

As he only went into Medicine to cravenly dodge a war his pedophile priesthood and fascist plutocracy put us in, Roman Catholic Gingrey got out as soon as he could, proving just how great a “calling” it truly wasn’t - has been trying to deny women sovereignty of their own G-d-given American right to their bodies, just like Adolph Hitler, Sarah Palin, and Gingrey’s sovereign, the Hitler Youth gay German pope; and spews like the wannabe he is about the martial pursuits of others.

He and 9/11-committing draft-dodger George Bush are cut from the same cloth…no wonder one of his kids has the same name as Bush’s White House homosexual lover: Gannon.

Georgia and America need to “cut the Gordian Knot” severing us from those Gingrey abets who broke our economy by permitting and condoning Bush’s fascist faction’s treason and the false war for which they borrowed money to make richer their cronies and accomplices.

Obama speaks as One of The People and the power elite with the blood of John and Bobby, Martin and 9/11 on their hands has yet to add his…so we know he’s smart…but the truth is the truth, and the way out of this mess is to hang Bush, Cheney and their accomplices, repudiate the debt they took on to pay for their treason, expropriate the faction - the fascist plutocracy - who tanked the Dotcom Boom to buy up equities on the bottom

GOV. GEORGE W. BUSH: Yeah, it does. I would hope - I mean, I’m not going “hooray.” I wish it wasn’t as jittery. I wish it was stable because I’m not - I’m not so crass as to want to be the president at the expense of somebody’s portfolio, but that does trouble me a little bit because I think - and I think - I think there’s some uncertainty out there that’s beginning to kind of creep into the conscious of investors.

…then committed 9/11 to build their power and profit and now are ramrodding the “Wefare Fascism Bailout” to take the People’s eye off the ball just as they ran Watergate Hearings to distract us from analyzing the “Who, What, Why, Where and How” of our getting into Vietnam…just like they ran a drunk closet-queen named Joe McCarthy to distract the American People from understanding the treason that used Roman Catholic collection plate funds through the Vatican-banker Rockfefeller’s Chase Manhattan family bank and Prescott Bush to grow the Nazi Party and Hitler for WWII profiteering and the Holocaust.

“I know no safe depositary of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” —Thomas Jefferson to William C. Jarvis, 1820. ME 15:278

“Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves, therefore, are its only safe depositories. And to render even them safe, their minds must be improved to a certain degree.” —Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.XIV, 1782. ME 2:207

“The most effectual means of preventing [the perversion of power into tyranny are] to illuminate, as far as practicable, the minds of the people at large, and more especially to give them knowledge of those facts which history exhibits, that possessed thereby of the experience of other ages and countries, they may be enabled to know ambition under all its shapes, and prompt to exert their natural powers to defeat its purposes.” —Thomas Jefferson: Diffusion of Knowledge Bill, 1779. FE 2:221, Papers 2:526

“The information of the people at large can alone make them the safe as they are the sole depositary of our political and religious freedom.” —Thomas Jefferson to William Duane, 1810. ME 12:417

Rome considered the Whig Liberalism upon which Our Republic was founded as “anti-Christ,” Our Whig Founder returned the favor:

To Samuel Kercheval Monticello, January 19, 1810

…and the 11th District of Georgia thinks a fraud Fifth Columnist like Gingrey should represent the many great Americans who live there?

Talk about not liking him because he is Black, wrong! His lack of experience on World issues, his past associations, and Socialist’s ideas, this is the reason that I do not like him. Plus, the liberal media’s slobbering over him and his wife like they have now come to save all.

Plain and simple, throwing money at the ecomony has been proved that it DOESN’T WORK. Again, his ZERO experience is ringing loud and clear!

Enough Said!
