Do you think maybe we need to worry about the fairness of the Fairness Doctrine when the president of the United States personally attacks a private citizen.
President Obama put his foot in his mouth yesterday by telling Republican congressional leaders, “You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done.” Rush released a statement accusing Obama of attempting to turn the argument into a discussion of Limbaugh rather than the real issues. But he saved his best zinger for last:
“(National Review has) documented Obama’s ties to the teachings of Saul Alinksy while he was community organizing in Chicago. Here is Rule 13 of Alinksy’s Rules for Radicals: ‘Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.’”
That’s probably not a quote you’ll find in Pocket Obama.

I’m old. Yes, very old. Rush Limbaugh has a soft melodious voice that
comforts me and keeps me abreast of what is happening in the world.
I owe Rush a great deal for the pleasure he brings to me. I can laugh
or I can wonder if I ever thought about the events he brings home to me.
Why I thought the left wants every voice to count or is that just when they agree with the left. Obama must think to highly of himself if he thinks every one should just praise him. And to pick on Rush. Shame on you Mr Obama, you are clearly not the man you portrayed yourself to be to the American voters. Head high Rush, you clearly have him rattled. I am sure he and his followers will try to take you off the air.
Rush’s mention of Obama “little blue book” (like Mao’s Little Red Book) has been very well hidden by the MSM and ther comrades.
Barak Hussein Obama and the rest of the progressive socialist liberals have no chance against Rush Limbaugh!
I’ve been a Rush fan since the days when he still had the “send me a naked picture (fmales only) if you want to be on the air”.

Obama is a communist and a fledgling dictator. He is awakening a sleeping giant of concerned patriotic Americans. When you come against Rush you are coming against 25 million Rush fans and 50 million conservitives.
Obama is a puppet on George Soros’s handiwork. Soros is kgb. America will soon find out the treachery and voter fraud brought by the Democrat party and main stream media. When Obama tries to ban guns watch out for a multi million angry americans marching on the white house.
Obama is big in his own eyes but a petty little insignificant rat compared to Rush. The fairness doctrine needs to start with the main street media and PBS.
After this years election they make the Sovit propaganda and Pravda look like a childrens program. The democrat party is full of thieves perverts and traitors to the citizens of our beloved USA. They hate the milatary and guns. The two stand in their way to total submission of their ungodly lifestyle. Obama is part of that perversion.
Getting on Rush, huh? In my view, Mr. Obortion, that is one huge mistake.
Looks like you are a complete liar in your promise to bring bi-partisanship into the White House. We were told by your propaganda machine(PBS,CNN,ABC.NBC,CBS) that you were the most intelligent “president?” to ever grace the Oval Office, but I have yet to see any indication of that.
Obama is a thug who will bring the entire DNC down the drain with him when americans wake up to this piece of mao abortion homo trash.
This clown Obama is in way over his head. There’s a reason why Bush never said a peep about Keith Olbermann or Al Franken. For a President to be attacking a private citizen speaks volumes about Rush’s influence. Rush called Obama out on his socialism and how Obama wants to co-opt Republicans in Congress to his agenda. It’s not hard for people to see what’s going on here. Dems are too afraid to pass their socialism unless they have gutless, feckless Republicans providing cover.
I love Rush. I also love America. The Obama/socialist congress will destroy it by trying to make it where they will never loose controlling power……. “The ENEMY Within”.
WTF, at least El Rushbo is constitutionally qualified to be President!
BOZO IS SCARED OF RUSH, ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE RATS IN CONGRESS
When I see and hear Obama Pelosi and Reid. I see a IGNORANCE gone to SEED.
If brains were dynimite Obama does not have enough to blow his nose compared to Rush.
Obama has been bought and sold by the homosex anti Christ socialist abortion
crowd. George Soros is behind the scenes and pulls all the strings. Soros is KGB
and we will find out very fast what the left wing media has sold you. Believe me I know. I have been in Intel for 35 years. Watch the purge of the CIA and NSA of the pros. Obama is poision to our freedom.
Islam is a religion of deception hates murder and perversion. As a former Muslim I was told to do a suicide bombing against an Israel school filled with children. When I asked the Inman why his own children wont do it He called me an infidel and tried to kill me. America wake up Islam wants to kill all who do not agree with their religion of hate murder and sexual perversion of children. While they talk of peace with you they are planning to kill and destroy all who will not submit to Islam, Have you ever met a happy muslim? Muslims live a religIon of hate lies murder and death and they want to destroy and rule you!! They are taught to lie and claim they are a Christian. Obama is a muslim and many will prove it.
