    OBAMA says: You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh

    WASHINGTON -- President Obama warned Republicans on Capitol Hill today that they need to quit listening to radio king Rush Limbaugh if they want to get along with Democrats and the new administration.

    "You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.

    One White House official confirmed the comment but said he was simply trying to make a larger point about bipartisan efforts.

    "There are big things that unify Republicans and Democrats," the official said. "We shouldn't let partisan politics derail what are very important things that need to get done."

    That wasn't Obama's only jab at Republicans today.

    While discussing the stimulus package with top lawmakers in the White House's Roosevelt Room, President Obama shot down a critic with a simple message.

    "I won," he said, according to aides who were briefed on the meeting. "I will trump you on that."

    The response was to the objection by Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Arizona) to the president's proposal to increase benefits for low-income workers who don't owe federal income taxes.

    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."
    Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)

    Limbaugh is on the lunatic fringe, and they can listen to him all they want. But if the GOP'ers take his advice to heart and expect to govern effectively they are mistaken. Government works best when it comes from the center, not the lunatic fringes, either left or right.

    As for low income workers...they're working, and not sucking on the government teat. How can they, or anyone else, drive the US economy if they can't afford to buy the goods and services that are the foundation of a consumer based economy?

    BP, you should be thankful the Republican party did NOT listen to Rush in this last election cycle

    Why is Obama so scared of Rush? Why is he constantly talking about Rush and Sean Hannity?

    He is either worried people may listen to them, or he is very thin skined - or both

    Abbey, Pres Obama must think Rush has a great deal of influence if Obama thinks Republicans in Washington are listening to Rush.

    Pres Obama should know from the election, most of the elected Republicans may listen to his show, do not do as he says
