Limbaugh against stimulus because its success could hurt GOP’s electoral chances.»

On Friday, when President Obama met with congressional leaders from both parties to discuss his economic recovery and reinvestment program, he told GOP leaders, “You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done.” Asked for a response by National Review yesterday, Limbaugh said that Obama’s “plan is to isolate elected Republicans from their voters.” He added that passage of the stimulus bill would hurt Republicans electorally:

Obama’s plan would buy votes for the Democrat Party, in the same way FDR’s New Deal established majority power for 50 years of Democrat rule, and it would also simultaneously seriously damage any hope of future tax cuts. It would allow a majority of American voters to guarantee no taxes for themselves going forward. It would burden the private sector and put the public sector in permanent and firm control of the economy. Put simply, I believe his stimulus is aimed at re-establishing “eternal” power for the Democrat Party rather than stimulating the economy because anyone with a brain knows this is NOT how you stimulate the economy.

Limbaugh’s argument echoes former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell’s recent claim that Obama’s stimulus plan “could create a major electoral advantage for Democrats at taxpayer expense.” “Creating 600,000 new jobs might help cement Virginia in the Democrat column, making it harder for Republicans to retake the White House,” said Blackwell.

2. God forbid we do anything to actually assist the American workers

and taxpayers and citizens to have better lives.

But I suppose OxyRush can always find a few people to vote against wht is in their best interests.

6. hmmm...

"Obama’s plan would buy votes for the Democrat Party, in the same way FDR’s New Deal established majority power for 50 years of Democrat rule, and it would also simultaneously seriously damage any hope of future tax cuts. It would allow a majority of American voters to guarantee no taxes for themselves going forward. It would burden the private sector and put the public sector in permanent and firm control of the economy."

And the problem with this is...?

7. As leader of the Republican Party, Limbaugh is not too bright

If he will think back, chimpy Bush tried buying votes with the Prescription Drug legislation. The American people saw through that facade with no trouble. This whole notion of 'buying votes with taxpayer dollars' is a complete fabrication by the right wing, has never been demonstrated in history, and will just further minimize the Republicans in the eyes of the voting public.

8. If they could stop it they would be stupid not to. The longer the recession occurs under Obama the

better their chances are.

9. I don't think Rush (AKA Dopey the mentalDwarf)

needs any help seperating republicans from thier voters Isn't that what DOPEY does?
(Limbaugh said that Obama’s “plan is to isolate elected Republicans from their voters.” He added that passage of the stimulus bill would hurt Republicans electorally:)
Listening to Dopey hasn't hurt them enough already!!!

12. Rush is a Lunatic

11. Limbaugh is probaly hitting the oxy's hard these days

He Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity and BillO probaly turn off more voters in the Republican Party than anything they are all nuts

13. How does Limbowels explain this?

Each time his party gains control, the economy tanks. Their lowering of taxes for the wealthy never kicks in the trickle down effect that they claim it will do. When the economy stagnates, they lower interest rates in a desperate bid to spur growth. As Pappy's term in office closed, the same stagnation was in place. If Limbowels was not such as BS'er, he would admit that his party cannot run a national economy. They create historic debts and inevitable recession. This time, under imbecile moron son Dubya, it may be worse than a recession.

I once thought the French Revolution was unduly cruel. Yet, if the French royals were surrounded by pimps like Limbowels, I can see why the big razor blade came out.
