QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 4, 2012 -> 12:55 PM) Really hard to pronounce though. You're adding a 3rd syllable to his name. oh i was thinking r-money

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 4, 2012 -> 12:48 PM) Wait, I know I've got a couple people here who've joined in calling him rMoney? i like rMoney. he should use that.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 4, 2012 -> 12:51 PM) People do? good point.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 4, 2012 -> 12:43 PM) Their shows will never be as successful. Progressives are less prone to wanting to listen to anger, hatred, and yelling all day. Well, then why do they watch MSNBC? Anyways, it could be successful, but you you need someone that has something interesting/smart to say.

Here in Chicago, we have a progressive talk radio station (820 AM). I was listening to it yesterday and it was pretty terrible. Rather than criticising Rush, maybe you guys should listen to his show and get some tips on how to have a top notch, successfull radio show. just sayin

hey man, if i was Rush Limbaugh i would give a fake apology too. but when the controversy died down a little i would let everyone know that it was a 'joke' apology and i didn't mean it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 4, 2012 -> 12:13 PM) Really though, it's been what, 20 years, and nothing he has said has done anything to hurt his brand? He's going to get his $20 million+ a year, he's going to be on 2000 stations a day, and that's just how it is. well, I think Rush was right. i'm sure his apology was fake and only said because some loon advertiser made a big deal out of it. if you are whining before congress that you need at least $30,000 a year for 'condom' spending cash, you should expect a little criticism.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 1, 2012 -> 07:18 PM) I'm not a democrat, but, yes, numerical analysis of the current tax and spending structure places a substantial majority of the deficit on Bush's policies. did Joe Biden happen to be the one whom calculated this numerical analysis for you?

R.I.P

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 08:09 PM) Hopefully she'll be replaced by a Kucinich clone. I would actually prefer that to who we had

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 09:43 AM) God am I glad Barney Frank is retiring. No more listening to him will be nice. He'll still be around on TV, lobbying for more wall street bailouts, ect.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 09:19 AM) Kap, I know you are smarter than this. Like or dislike Obama - and obviously you dislike - to say he's been a liberal in terms of policy is absurd. He, like basically every President before him, has governed far more moderately than he campaigned as. He's done a few liberal things (the stim bill, though that was half tax cuts), the auto industry moves (which worked pretty well, but I'll agree it was a liberal), and putting a temporary hold on the Keystone XL pipeline. But he has also volunteered to cut large amounts of government spending, asked permission to consolidate and reduce a bunch of agencies, signed off on continued and even increased tax cuts including for the wealthy, aided in military intervention in Libya, had Osama bin Laden killed, and opened up a whole slew of new areas for oil drilling. He's been a moderate. I know you really don't want that to be true, but its right there in his record. Obama is a loon. Big spending, anti-America, liberal loon.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 08:00 PM) They're farther from the border. Harder to turn around and get back. It doesn't explain why Obama is flying them first class. Seems kinda expensive IMO.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 08:10 PM) Personally I don't know why we don't hang them now. you guys are trying. don't worry, there's still time.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 08:16 PM) Pass me some of that dope. She voted with Obama 2/3's of the time over the last three years... and before that, she was basically irrelevant. Far left wing = moderate. An actual moderate = right wing radical.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 04:40 PM) Senator Olympia Snowe (R-ME) will retire this year. Honestly, this might belong in the Democratic thread, because this retirement creates a huge opportunity for a Democratic Senate pickup. Senator Snowe probably would have cruised to reelection this year. meh. she was same/worse than a Democrat IMO.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 12:18 PM) Could you seriously imagine the grilling Ron Paul would get in the general? It'd make the Sarah Palin CBS interview debacle look tame. any candidate (not named Obama) will get grilled. They are trying to unseat the messiah!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 23, 2012 -> 08:43 AM) Hey, Toyota does employ a good number of American workers. (Thanks in no small part to a Reagan era trade war regulation requiring them to do so to continue selling their products here). ^^^ post of the day.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 20, 2012 -> 01:26 PM) This is really a fascinating graph...inflation-adjusted spending on Presidential races, back through the Civil War. Turns out...when you adjust for inflation, the explosion in campaign spending really didn't start until 2000 and it was 2004 before it really took off. I don't know what to make of that, but I woudln't have guessed it. Obama is a bribe collecting machine. the best of all time at cashing bribe checks.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Feb 20, 2012 -> 07:23 AM) fixed fail

QUOTE (Tex @ Feb 19, 2012 -> 10:26 AM) It seems as if the GOP faithful are predicting lower gas prices if we elect a Republican. I like that twist! if gas prices go up a lot we will totally blame Obama.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 18, 2012 -> 10:09 PM) Just got my first Rmoney superpac ad! grats

i think this fits into the mind your own business category.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 17, 2012 -> 07:27 PM) He shows his hate in the form of showering them with money. I'll take some of that hate. Obama has created a new entitlement class. His banker buddies.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 17, 2012 -> 07:59 AM) We have a rule about not wishing for people to die based on their political beliefs and I think it's a good one. that is true.
