Thats the problem MORE. NOBODY on this site will OWN UP to listening to RUSH, yet, will post almost "WORD FOR WORD" what RUSH says on the radio each day on issues. There are at least three posters (who i cant name because its not allowed for me) who's only thoughts are PURE limbaughs thoughts and ideas.
Thats why I listen to RUSH in the mornings while I deliver.
Theres a saying "keep your friends close and your enemies closer" and thats how I can tell who listens or not.
YET, when RUSH says something controversial, everyone in the GOP runs away from him and calls him "irrelevant". Same on this board, the GOP faithful are calling him irrelevant making suggestions that nobody listens to him.
Please, he is the GOP party spokesman directly. His thoughts are the party's thoughts, those party's thoughts then become the faithfuls thoughts. Its the way its sold to its followers. MESSAGING, MESSAGING, MESSAGING. The constant repetition of mis information becomes the truth on the RUSH radio program. Same with FOX. If they say it enough over and over and over and over and over and then one more time, it becomes TRUE to the daily watcher.
As for GAS prices, EVEN FOX business just this morning said "capitalism is the customer and business agreeing on a price and paying for it" ...."if a customer pays 4.55 a gallon, then capitalism is working just fine"...."if a customer doesnt like the price, then they shouldnt but gas and the business will bring down the price"...( stewart varney, Andrew napalotano, Tracy byrnes )
Well, if any of that is true, why are people in the GOP bitching about gas prices in the first place????
And if this is simple capitalism, what does supply have to do with anything?
We are being gouged by the oil companies in the first quarter and it will continue to creep down over the next 30 days. Today , OPEC has agreed to increase production in order to get the price of oil DOWN.
