I decided I can’t stand Rush

I have gotten to the point I can not stand listening to Rush Limbaugh any longer. The same rhetoric is repeated over and over. I’m not a liberal and can no longer call myself a conservative if the leading conservative is sounding so pathetic.  Wednesday he went on and on several times in his broadcast about how stupid the Demorcrats are for not wanting to get even for the beheadings and loss of soldiers we have had in Iraq. We were never in Iraq to get even for current events, if we are there for that reason we will always be there since there will be a never ending supply of events to get even for. It would be impossible to have those current events had we not gone there in the first place, first grade logic.  He sounds completely ignorant, and this is who we choose to represent us on a world stage. He calls himself El Rushbo for crying out loud, how much more juvenile and happy hour bar mentality can you get than that? He makes us look like a bunch of redneck idiots. Last week his comments about 1% of the the population paying the majority of taxes was just plain stupid, duh Mr.  Limbaugh 1% has the majority of income. I don’t begrudge them having it, but I definitely am not concerned they are taxed on it. It isn’t going to matter if they start taxing our capital gains because we are not making millions like Rush Limbaugh therefore we will not have any capital left to tax.

Middle income hard working people are struggling to keep their homes, go to work and pay daycare because prices have gotten out of control and the best our most paid attention to spokesperson can come up with is calling a presidential nominee lord messiah over and over and over and over and over. We are not living in times where we can look at the poor and say oh well they should have worked harder it’s their own fault because we are becoming them and it’s not our fault. Could the man come up with some real solutions rather then a constant parade of what he believes is wit in running down others.

My end of Rush came in his commentary about a woman this week who wrote a letter to her Senator saying we need to prioritize. He spent alot of his show ridiculing her on the order she put her priorities, food being third on the list. What he doesn’t realize with his millions is that food can come third, it’s called taking the hamburger out of the spaghetti, it’s one of the few places have left where we can cut back and save a couple of bucks. I realized then he is so completely out of touch with us and what is going on because he is not us, he does not even have to consider what is going on out here because he is protected from it all with his wealth. Then it dawned on me, he is just a high paid entertainer, nothing more. He has been telling us what we want to hear for years and I’m ashamed to admit I listened and I went with it because my calf was fat and life was good. Now it’s starting to unravel and it’s not going to matter who gets into the white house. The reality is the cost of living has gone up by over 60% in eight years and it’s not going to come down, it never has and never will. And it will be a very long time before income catches up again. This is where we are and we had better come up with something better than pointing fingers, calling names, and listening to commentary of leaders or shall I say entertainers who in reality couldn’t care less about us.
