>> When confronted with absolute evidence that you are wrong Except, of course, there has been no such evidence presented here. I've asked any one of you nutjobs to explain precisely what Obama has done, specific action he has taken, which has effected a turnaround in the economy. Chirp. Chirp. Nothing. You got not one damned thing. You say, "He's gonna do this, he's gonna do that." But tell me what he HAS done. The simple truth is that no action has been taken other than a change in the rhetoric. That's it. Yes, he plans to spend a ton of money. To date, only $30 million of the stimulus money has been spent for "shovel-ready" projects. Are you actually claiming that THAT made a difference?

"You explain the same things over and over and they just get meaner." That has always been the case. However, as of late, they have gone off the deep end. Fox has gone the same way.

>> You explain the same things over and over and they just get meaner. Except you haven't explained anything, you nitwit. I've asked you a dozen times to tell us what Obama has done, besides his running off at the mouth, that has improved the economoy. You can't answer because there IS no answer. He has done nothing.

You use to play golf John, Feherty was always a blast to listen to... Message 25634446 Washington, D.C. - Today, Media Matters for America demanded an apology for columnist and CBS golf analyst David Feherty's assertion that "if you gave any U.S. soldier a gun with two bullets in it, and he found himself in an elevator with Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Osama bin Laden, there's a good chance that Nancy Pelosi would get shot twice, and Harry Reid and bin Laden would be strangled to death." "Mr. Feherty's violent comments about Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid are disgusting," said Eric Burns, President of Media Matters. "Suggesting that our troops would attack the leaders of the very democracy they've sworn to sacrifice their lives for is an insult to their integrity, honor, and professionalism. CBS Sports should demand its golf analyst apologize to our soldiers." In a feature for the April issue of D Magazine, five writers - including Feherty - were asked to explore "how the Bushes will affect our lives in Dallas." Feherty wrote in his piece: >>> From my own experience visiting the troops in the Middle East, I can tell you this, though: despite how the conflict has been portrayed by our glorious media, if you gave any U.S. soldier a gun with two bullets in it, and he found himself in an elevator with Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Osama bin Laden, there's a good chance that Nancy Pelosi would get shot twice, and Harry Reid and bin Laden would be strangled to death. I've never met a soldier who didn't love this president and this country, and I've met a bunch of them, at home and abroad, in hospitals and in theater. At Walter Reed, Bethesda Naval Medical Center, and the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, I have visited dozens of patients, and I always ask of them before I leave: "What do you want to do when you get out?" No matter how broken or burned, or how many limbs they are missing, they give only one answer: "I want to go back. I want to rejoin my team, to finish our mission." They are rightfully proud of what they have done and want nothing more than to be with their brothers and sisters in arms, because they know the consequences if their job is left unfinished.<<< As Media Matters documented, Feherty's column was read during today's broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show by guest host Mark Davis.
