Obama declares war on.....Rush?



Okay, this is starting to get weird. Rahm Emanuel on "Face the Nation" talking about Rush Limbaugh as if Rush is enemy number one. Well, he probably is the enemy if you are a fan of or prescribe to socialism/communism and the elimination of liberty by way of high taxes. This tells me a couple things:
  1. The Democrats are genuinely afraid of Rush. They know he represents a HUGE voice in terms of the American electorate, and they see him as the biggest threat right now. I haven't seen them attacking Steele or any of the moderates in the party. Rush is scaring the crap out them right now.
  2. The administration is obviously trying to put a wedge in between the moderate and conservative wings of the party. Taking their orders from Press Secretary Robert Gibbs suggestion to the media to challenge Republican leaders, we heard Michael Steele questioned on his allegiance to Rush on CNN. I think we'll be seeing much more of this in the coming days and weeks as the party begins to evaluate if they are going to embrace or turn their backs on Rush.
The Republican party is in shambles right now. The biggest voting block and most advocate in terms of calling their representatives is the audience of Rush. I'm starting to feel sorry for Michael Steele, as he probably feels like he's in the back seat right now.

In my opinion, and for the sake of the country, Steele and the moderates should support and rally around Rush. They had their moderate candidate in McCain - he was the embodiment of EVERYTHING moderate. That choice failed. Look at where we are now - heading towards a socialist mess. Even the Republican moderates must realize that a staunch conservative like Romney would be a much, much better selection than what we have now in Obama.

So, for this reason alone the Republican moderates should come together and embrace the only true vocal opposition to socialism and Obama. And the most prominent leader of this movement right now is Rush Limbaugh.
