Rush for Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness

Republicans are getting touchy-feely from Rahmbo while he tries to demonize a private citizen exercising his free speech in the still free but free-falling market? The Swamp:
And this weekend, speaking to a forum of the Conservative Political Action Committee, Limbaugh stood firm: "What is so strange about being honest and saying, 'I want Barack Obama to fail, if his mission is to restructure and reform this country so that capitalism and individual liberty are not its foundation?

"Why would I want that to succeed?'"

So, just as Obama had once volunteered Limbaugh's name when discussing Republican opposition to his plans, the president's chief of staff volunteered Limbaugh's name in an appearance Sunday on CBS News' Face the Nation.

"Our goal, Bob, is to continue to reach out,'' chief of staff Rahm Emanuel told CBS host Bob Schieffer. "And it's our desire that the Republicans would work with us and try to be constructive rather than adopt a philosophy of somebody like Rush Limbaugh who is praying for failure.''

No Rahmbo, we're praying for the country. We're praying for the country to succeed, in spite of your administration's obvious attempt to kill any individual initiative and productivity dead. And with the complicity of many in the MSM, hastening their demise.

As Rush said on Saturday, conservatives are for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and we see them under assault.

One final thought--some in the media say Rush is angry. Ha. Rush is passionate. I would say someone who screams obscenities and stabs knives into a table is angry.
