Anyone hear Limbaugh's economic proposal today?

[TTUBatfan2008]

He says it should be split up based on the election percentages: 54% spent on Obama's Keynesian proposals and 46% spent on the Republicans' Supply Side proposals. Interesting proposal coming from the guy who had no problem with George W. Bush's 100% Supply Side proposal after losing the popular vote in the election.

1. Sure Dude

That would be great if your policies hadn't already been tried for 8 years with the result . . .

EPIC, PAINFUL, RUINOUS FAIL

[whistle]

2. It's the oxycoton talking, Rush is not an economist and has no clue

...as to what will help the the U.S. economy get started again.

[avaistheone1]

3. Interesting given supply side economics and tax cuts for wealthy have been a terrific failure

which is taking this country to the point of collapse.

[TTUBatfan2008]

6. What's amusing to me is...

They railed against the bailouts as being highway robbery because the companies weren't going to use the money to help the people. Well what do they think the companies are going to do with their tax cuts? They're going to pocket that extra income. The Supply Side theory is that they'll use the extra money to create more jobs. If you believe that a government bailout of corporate America is highway robbery for the wealthy, then you should believe the same thing about these corporate tax breaks. I for one am against both the Keynesian and Supply Side BS. I'm pretty much against government spending in general, and that includes tax cuts for corporations.

11. Bush said that his $550 Billion in tax cuts to the wealthy would create 1 million jobs.

By Bush's own reckoning, if you give a billionaire $550,000 in tax savings, they will create ONE job.

4. That's the problem with most of their proposals. They always want a "level"

playing field after stacking the deck for decades and decades.

[Cheap_Trick]

5. I have a proposal for that bag of shit.

Do something useful, you tub of goo.

Choke on something.

A ham sandwich.

An oxycontin tablet.

A cigar rammed down your throat.

I don't care what.

Just

Choke.

[tishaLA]

7. Imagine him saying that after 2000?

when the cons lost the popular vote?

[lurky]

8. Denial, anger, and now bargaining...

He's just going through the grieving process. :D

[Dappleganger]

9. Typical whiny armchair quarterback.

It's going to be fun listening to him whine like a little pig over the next 8 years.

[butterfly77]

14. Exactly...

[Ian David]

10. Better idea: How about Obama's Economic Stimulus only be spent in counties that voted for him.

Tough shit, Oklahoma!

NONE of YOUR counties voted for Obama!

[ipfilter]

12. Please don't remind me.

My county was 25% to 75% for the other ticket. It doesn't get much redder than that.

[tabbycat31]

15. then my county would get nothing

we really tried this year. We still got 48% but still have a way to go

[Hippo_Tron]

16. That idea is just as dumb as Limbaugh's

Obama is President of the entire country, not just of the people who voted for him. I don't know how much clearer he has to make that.

[Ian David]

17. Yes, it is. n/t

[librechik]

13. Just more "If Obama was REALLY bipartisan he would become a Republican

and lick my boots."

Since he won't, he has failed to convince Rush of his bipartisan intent.

awwww. Poor Rush!

[serrano2008]

18. No, he's a comedian.

I get my economic proposals from Obama.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

19. Who here can bear listening to that windbag?!

[WinkyDink]

20. He needs to fill up his air-time.

[dbmk]

21. Not an unreasonable proposal

He would just have to agree to fix, with interests interest, the situation derived from not doing that over the last 100 years.

[DCBob]

22. I suspect moderate Republicans are freaking about Limbaugh...

They know they will not benefit from Limbaugh being prominently in the news.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

23. You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get anything done!
