The anger and hate spewed from Mr. Limbaugh's mouth this past weekend was stomach wrenching. The amount of attention it has received is amazing and will likely help the Democrats gain support.
I would like to highlight one passage from his speech. He basically stated that women on welfare would rather collect their welfare checks than have the father of their children present in their lives and home. He makes the assertion that single mothers have willingly exchanged a husband/partner with a paycheck for a welfare check.
Perhaps Mr. Limbaugh's average $50 million/year salary has kept him so insolated from REALITY that he can make this tremendously out of touch assertion.
I'd like to see Mr. Limbaugh live for 1 month on a welfare check.
What the Conservatives have failed to understand is that their ability to convince the middle and lower class to vote against their economic self interest is OVER.
They used to use the fear of "Tax and Spend Liberals" to convince the common man to vote Republican. Well, everyone has finally wised up that the Republicans/Conservatives are only out for themselves and could care less about those below them.
When the "Tax and Spend" fear mongering began to wear thin, President Bush used the "Democrats will make us less safe" fear mongering to win in 2004. Well, that doesn't work anymore either.
Everytime I hear a Republican talk about fiscal responsibility all I register is HYPOCRIT. How dare anyone with an "R" next to their name give any advice on how to run our economy.
I hate to give the other side any advice but until the Republicans as a group AND President Bush specifically apologize to the American people for screwing us over for decades they will continue to be the minority.
