    Yurt: Obama never said, "Don't listen to Rush" or "Stop listening to Rush."

    He said the GOPers should not get all their information from Rush (because Rush is obviously a biased, partisan source of information that presents only one point of view). Obama said they shouldn't be taking their marching orders from Rush.

    Obama is saying we all have to work together to get out of this economic crisis. He's saying we have to look past narrow, partisan interests.

    Obama is a child having a fit because actual thinkers disagree with his stupid Bill........ he's an ass and couldn't sit at Rush's desk behind his microphone, after all, there isn't a teleprompter for his incompetent ass. I miss President Bush......... an actual leader.

    There... the emphasis is correct now.

    nowhere does he say NOT to listen to Rush... he only suggests that people oght not to listen to only Rush and ignore other voices.

    English is a wonderfully nuanced language....

    English in the hands of troglodytes, not so much.

    So 'which' GOP leaders did he accuse of only listening to Rush? Oh, none in particular? All? None?

    Limbaugh has been hard on Obama, but not nearly as crass or demeaning as were the Dixie Chicks brought up earlier. A rewind:

    http://www.tmz.com/2006/09/12/dixie-...re-a-dumb-f-k/

    Dixie Chicks To Bush: "You're a Dumb F**k"
    Posted Sep 12th 2006 6:19PM by TMZ Staff
    It's been more than three years since the Dixie Chicks sparked a media firestorm by announcing they were "ashamed the President of the United States is from Texas." Now, the embattled country stars are reigniting the blaze with a highly controversial documentary featuring lead singer Natalie Maines calling President Bush a "dumb f---."



    According to Entertainment Weekly, one memorable scene from "Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing" shows the singers watching a news report on President Bush's reaction to their infamous on-stage comment. In the report, Bush says ''the Dixie Chicks are free to speak their mind,'' adding, ''they shouldn't have their feelings hurt just because some people don't want to buy their records when they speak out. You know, freedom is a two-way street.'' After watching this footage, Maines then repeats the president's comment and says, ''What a dumb f---.'' She then looks into the camera, as if addressing Bush himself, and reiterates, ''You're a dumb f---.''

    The documentary, directed by two-time Academy Award-winning Barbara Kopple, travels with the Chicks, from their peak of popularity as the national anthem-singing darlings of country music and top-selling female recording artists of all time, through the now infamous anti-Bush comment, and on through the days, months and years of mayhem. The film is set to premiere tonight at the Toronto International Film Festival, where for some odd reason (possibly that our neighbors to the north aren't exactly fans of our nation's leader), it's expected to be a huge hit.
    Lessons to be learned. The 'Chicks' have their rights to be heard. Those that disagree have their right to react. Bush said both.

    alright then....let's assume you're correct in your view of his words

    who then did he accuse of listening ONLY to rush? who admitted to listening ONLY to rush? where did he get the idea that people in the room were listening ONLY to rush?

    if you can't provide an example....then obama lied that there are those listening ONLY to rush, because if no one was listening ONLY to rush, there is absolutely NO need for the comment.

    let's see you dig and dig your way out of this one master digger

    Indeed. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Yurt again.

    none in particular.... he only suggested that if the GOP listened only to Rush, they would not be in a position to act in the best interests of the nation, in his opinion. I happen to agree with him. Clearly, you and your sycophants here disagree. I guess I should not be surprised.

    I am sure that Obama did not say that the GOP did not have a RIGHT to listen to JUST Bush, he only pointed out his belief that, to do so, would be in error.
