Well if Rush is wrong, please give me any logical explanation for their actions. Not their words, but Democrat’s actions. The only answers are 1) pure stupidity and misunderstanding of how the world works in a state of reality, or 2) nefarious BS traitorous &*$%#$%^&

Well we know for a fact that Obama has been schooled by and associated with Cloward-Piven socialists, apologists for American power, environmentalists dedicated to reducing the population and economic activity, and card-carrying communists that believe in punishing the rich in order to redistribute their wealth to the poor.

The question shouldn’t be: “do we believe Obama is intentionally destryoing the economy”, but “why have we been so reluctant to take these people at their word”?

The facts are plain. The words and actions of Obama and his associates. Basic economic principles. The cannibalistic death-spiral of socialism that has been predicted by Rand, Orwell, and others, and played out many times throughout history.

The road we’re on is as obvious as the eventual outcome. The time for polite debate and the illusion of a healthy status quo is long since past. Either we stop the liberal agenda or this country is looking at a permanently crippled economy and cession of superpower status. History only gives nations one shot at hegemonic power. We blow it and we can enjoy the next 500 years as today’s Spain or France or Turkey and talk about the good old days when we had wealth and freedom and power.

I don’t think Obama is intentionally destroying the economy as Rush says, but, he is destroying it because of sheer incompetence and wishful leftist thinking.

If Obama is destroying the country out of ignorance then even our advanced educational system is worse than initially thought.

That’s like saying if I lose my job, the best way to help myself is to spend like there’s no tomorrow. Even an individual without a college degree knows that one must spend less if they’ve lost their job.

The thing I always thought Rand pegged so adroitly about socialists is that they are almost always in denial about what they’re doing and what they ultimately want, especially the ones on the political end of things (how many times did the moochers in Atlas Shrugged earnestly shout, “But that’s not what I meant!”). I don’t think Obama is intentionally destroying the economy, but that’s what his ideology will do so I’m not sure why his intentions matter.

What I found much more chilling was her ability to nail the liberal progression from good intentions to compulsion in carrying out their policies.

Look at health care. They started with raising taxes for Medicare and Medicaid. Now they’re requiring coverage they approve of with fines or jail as the alternative, and forcing providers and insurance companies to play by their rules. Can there be any outcome other than the next step being a Directive 10-289 for doctors as they start to opt out of seeing Medicare patients and leaving their practices?

but, he is destroying it because of sheer incompetence and wishful leftist thinking.

Winner winner chicken dinner

My sense is that Obama feels this country is “owned by white people” and that he is trying to bring whitey down as a form of payback. All the dims feel this way — not just the blacks. Of course, blacks feel it more intensely (but Michelle isn’t as good at hiding her disdain).

The best way to bring whitey down is to mess up whitey’s possessions, ie the economy and culture that “belongs to whitey.” You see this sort of thing in all sorts of dysfunctional relationships — the boyfriend who slashes his beautiful girlfriend’s face when she jilts him, the wife who spends all her husbands money when she finds out he cheated on her. The rioters who burn down their own neighborhoods which are all owned and operated by the white man and Korean immigrants.

Yes, Rush is right about this. The dims are trying to damage the country because they are convinced they are disenfranchised and are not really part of what this country is about. They aren’t really thinking much about how it will look/work once the goose that lays the golden eggs has been kicked in the reproductive organs so hard it can’t lay eggs any more. But it sure felt good getting that kick in, huh?

Rush is right. So is Glenn Beck. They’re both saying essentially the same thing: the Obama administration is deliberately collapsing the American economy to give the Federal government massive power and control over everything. Everything.

Did anybody see Glenn Beck where Clintoon was having a gab fest and Cloward and Piven were right behind him?? Of course they are trying to collapse the economy but, the right is too dumbfounded to believe it. I get so pissed that Beck and Rush are vilified and laughed at and the lefty communists poo poo this and are believed.

We are in deep kimchee if this health bill is finally passed. The only way I can see it not is if (and when) Scott Brown wins in Mass. and gets seated in time. They will try to delay it but, I think that would be way too obvious now don’t you????

i’m interested in other aspects of this story…the backhanded compliment to Rush…’his personal life is dramatic and unfortunate’?? We should ALL be so unfortunate. She doesn’t give him credit for his analysis of the situation. What can you expect from a democrat turned alleged republican (RINO). Is this gal a republican like spector was a republican or some other allegedly newly awakened dems turned rep journalist? what a wishy washy article.

Lets put it this way: I don’t think President Obama would be unhappy if the Cloward-Piven scheme came about and worked, but I do not believe he’s actively working toward it.

I think he’s such a totally academic pointy headed leftist twit he believes his schemes are the right idea, the kind of “we’ve figured out how to fix the world” stupidity college kids come up with then usually grow out of – unless they become professors and are isolated from the real world around them by various layers of yes-men and like-thinking zealots.

And Caroline: having drug problems, a failed marriage, and other personal issues is dramatic and unfortunate. There’s nothing RINO about Sparkle.

Obama did not promise to “tweak” immigration, he did not pledge to “improve” health care, he did not say the economy would “change for the better.” No, Obama promised “FUNDAMENTAL change” for the country. What part of “FUNDAMENTAL change” are you having trouble with?

Rush is discussing this article right now on the air.
