The Rush Limbaugh appearance on the Jay Leno show the other night was something to see. Rush looked great as ever having lost 85 pounds on his diet. He was like a conservative machine gun, cramming in as much as possible in the nine minutes that his interview was given. His appearance as a guest was capped off by a visit to the eco-challenge track outside Jay's new studio where guests try to get the best lowest score by driving the electric Ford car around a track while avoiding obstacles. the obstacles included cardboard cut-outs of such green people as Al Gore and Ed Bagley Jr. and also streamers that shoot out of cannons. Now I listen to Rush just about every day, and I knew that he would be on Jays show that night, and I knew what he was intent upon doing for this eco-challenge. He was going to attempt to get the worst score possible by hitting every one of the obstacles. And he did it in spades! Not only did he hit every obstacle, but when Al Gore jumped out in front of him, he put the car in reverse, and hit him a second and then third time! He did the same with Ed Bagley Jr. What a hoot! I was howling with laughter at the entire segment.
But what was really great about his appearance, besides being funny and entertaining, was that he was on prime time television with as many as 40 million viewers! Now that is some serious coverage. Rush Limbaugh, the undisputed king of conservative talk radio has a three-hour per day show that starts at noon eastern time for five days a week. His show has over 20 million loyal listeners like myself. So his appearance on Jay's show, doubled his audience during prime time and his conservative viewpoint was teased to many who have never tuned in to Rush's show.
Our current President has had no real world experience running anything other than campaigns which is why he is in perpetual campaign mode. He does not have any plans, just talking points. He has not produced any plans for anything be it the stimulus, financial industry mess, energy policy, foreign policy, Wall Street mess, manufacturing mess, or even health care. He has no plan. he is just winging it with campaign style rhetoric, staying on point with his talking points. And he looks so good on camera, plus he reads a mean teleprompter. But he has fails to drill down to the details every time. It is getting old. I for one am tired of all the positive campaign like exposure that the mainstream media is giving him. It is a little like an old worn out record with a deep scratch that keeps skipping back to the same groove; annoying.
And then there are the constant put downs of America itself which are also just as annoying. He has stated that he does not like the Constitution, he thinks that it is flawed, and our society is just as flawed so he takes every opportunity to point to everything that he feels is wrong with America on the world stage; annoying and dangerous. Dangerous because it emboldens our enemies who view him as weak. They (our enemies) praise Obama publicly for his apologetic attitude while privately plotting their next move against us.
I for one am so glad that Benjamin Netanyahu stood up at the UN and called the President of Iran a Holocaust denier, anti-Semite and admonished those leaders that did not walk out during Mamouds rant. He asked "Have you no shame?"
Everything about Obama as President is backwards; his positions on all the things previously mentioned. What would make us stronger as a nation, he attacks. He is hampering the recovery that is already been underway. If he would just shut up and get the hell out of the way, we the people could get on with recovering already. But Obama is all about himself; building monuments to his ego. Did you know that every single one of those road construction signs for the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act with the Obama 'O' logo on it costs the taxpayers $1,300? and there are at least two of them for every site. How many sign makers do you know? At least they are staying busy. His shameless self promotion is unending and disgusting.
