The Respectfully Republican Conversation

Oh yes!  They definitely perceive him as a threat because he has such a huge listening audience.  So dumb for them to mention him; it just confirms that he is a threat!  LOL!!

I had a friend who worked at home and always listened to Rush. I thought she was crazy until I started to tune him in last year. I do not always agree with him but he has a lot of facts to back up his opionions, not just constantly blasting of others like liberal radios tried. He is really funny too. For instance he was talking this week about the mess the "Green Party" left behind after the coronation because they were waiting for someone else to come along and take care of their mess. He called it "Hurricane Latrina". LOL!

Some people seem to feel that we all need to sit down now and be good sheeple and do what ever the dear leader says, just because he has charisma. Isn't that how dictators get their foothold? Their power gets so strong because no one dares to upset the apple cart and eventually no one is able to go against them, even if they are doing horrible things. Think Putin. Think Chavez. Think Castro. Think Hitler. We need to THINK for ourselves.

Yes, I heard about Hurricane Latrina, I was listening to him that morning!

He said maybe it was to create more jobs -- now he had to hire someone

to clean it up!  And what about no budgeting for the clean-up?

That was not part of the plan!  OOPS .. talk about planning with

a few possible consequences -- he planned for what? That it would

be sparkling clean when they all left?

I c that some people keep removing posts.  Can anyone tell me why?  I didn't see anyone attacking anyone.  I think politicians are fair game and it's someone's view.  What is wrong with that? or does this site believe in censorship?

Jadar,

We are very fortunate to participate in the trial version of the new democrat led policy, known as the Fairness Doctrine.  This was thought to be used to stop people from irrationally deciding what talk show they like to listen to.  Everyone with a half brain knows that if you listen to three hours of Rush Limbaugh and his 99.7% accuracy rate in reporting,  you must have 3 hrs of Al Franken with his .3% accuracy rate because we must have 100% correctness. 

So the same people with a half brain has decided that the two political threads on this site must be at the forefront of the social experiment of this new Doctrine.  Too many facts prove the conservative thought process correct 99.7% of the time, therefore they feel that enough post must be deleted to allow some balance in the inequities of sound ideas.

I do think we need to applaud and thank the half brains for allowing us to be at the front of the Fairness Doctrine movement.  A big WhooooooooooooooHoooooooooooooo to them.

Here's to the:

ACLU

AFLCIO

MSNBC

DNC

With Libertarian

Injustice

For all!

So if you are conservative just shut your mouth and be silent. After all, the other side has been so quiet the past few years. Fair is fair. It is especially important that we only talk about the weather here from now on. We do not want to offend anyone after all.

So how is the weather in your neck of the woods?

The sun is bright here and it is almost 10 degrees. I am headed out in my bikini to work on absorbing some of that vit. D.

Thanks for your answer. I am still confused. I thought only personal attacks violated the board policy.  Seems that it is taken too far. I can understand if she said that So and So is a *(*(* then that would be ok but I saw the posts and that is not the case.

L8R gators.

I was a lot warmer this afternoon.  I was listening to a radio show, not Rush, and the woman picked up on something that was said in a speech during a stopover in Baltimore about how our constitution needs to be revamped for our times.  I got a lot warmer.  Those were not the exact words.  We have to watch even the small nuances being said because these small things that goes over everyone's head seems be become an executive order of some kind. 

I did not want to read that speech or any other, but I fear I must go find it now.  The lady was floored by his meaning, plus she said since we have this past week to see how quickly he moved we better be looking up his other words.  I feel this coldness coming over me now.

Here is a link about Executive Orders.  They can be overturned by Congress.

Executive Orders

Remember, that we have a government with a system of checks and balances.  An Executive Order can be overturned by Congress just like they can override a veto.

While the power of the executive order seems broad, there are checks. One check is Congress's ability to overturn executive orders, much in the same way that it may overturn a presidential veto. A two-thirds vote of both houses (i.e., both the Senate and the House of Representatives) is required to overturn an executive order. This means that it can be extremely hard to overturn an executive order, since most members of Congress typically vote along party lines

No one branch of government has unlimited power that cannot be revoked or overturned by the two other branches.

So Sarah Palin returns the clothes and the GOP puts them in trash bags?  Hmmmmmmm

Talk about not protecting one of their own ....this poor woman seems to have been kicked out to the curb without a 2nd thought!

Rock,

I don't understand.  They could have auctioned those clothes.  They were pretty stylish.  So by putting them in trash bags, that means they're throwing her out too?  How do you get from A to Z on that analogy?

Is there one showing the dumped over port-o-pots?  I heard that went on too.  The dems are trying to say the reason why there was so much garbage is because everyone was looking for keepsakes in the trash.  That might explain the pots being knocked over too.

Rosemary44  "everyone was looking for keepsakes in the trash.  That might explain the pots being knocked over too. "

That is the funniest thing you have ever said - ROFL!! 

This thread is wonderful.  I just signed onto another thread and was looking around and found this.  I'm on the east coast so it's late here but I will go back and read some and see if I can catch up.  I'm a life long republican, 58 years old.  I've been active politically for over 40 years.  It goes without saying, I believe Obama is going to be very bad for our democracy.  The road he will have us travel will come to no good end. 

I'm going to look back aways here.  I'm glad I found you.
