Talk radio icon Rush Limbaugh stunned his audience on Monday when he said that US presidential candidate Ron Paul has the right perspective in wanting to cut US$1 trillion in government spending – although the conservative talker claims he came up with the idea first.
“You’re not going to believe my answer,” Rush told a caller who asked how the Republicans can govern once they defeat President Obama next year. “Ron Paul has a good idea.”
“Ron Paul is about to show the Republican presidential field what a serious fiscal reform program looks like,” Limbaugh said, and read highlights of Paul’s plan as published in Politico....
While Y'all Are Squabbling About Rush-Ron-Paul-WRONG--The POLITICAL TRIAL OF THE CENTURY IN IL, USA, Is Winding Down:
"SILENCE AROUND CELLINI (MOB) TRAIL IS THE SOUND OF TRUE CLOUT"--John Kass-10-26-11
"...IN POLITICAL POWER TERMS, BLAGOJEVICH WAS AN EMPTY SUIT, AN EMPTY TITLE, A MERE PIMPLE WHEN COMPARED TO THE POWERFUL CELLINI, WHO CALLED THE SHOTS IN ILLINOIS POLITICS AROUND SPRINGFIELD FOR 40 YEARS. BLAGO IS BROKE. CELLINI MADE A FORTUNE CONSERVATIVELY ESTIMATED IN THE TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
IT IS THE CELLINI TRIAL THAT IS THE IMPORTANT ONE. GUYS LIKE CELLINI DON'T GET INDICTED. THEY'RE THE GUYS WHO USUALLY HOBNOB WITH PRESIDENTS AND APPROVE FEDERAL PROSECUTERS.
AND ROD? ROD WAS THE CARNIVAL ACT. BLAGOJEVICH AND HIS WIFE, PATTI, DID THOSE RIDICULOUS REALITY TV SHOWS. BUT CELLINI NEVER FELT THE NEED TO DO REALITY TV. INSTEAD, HE DID THOSE REALITY FBI TAPES.
AND AS THE JURORS BEGIN DELIBERATIONS, THEY'LL BE THINKING ABOUT CELLINI'S VOICE ON THOSE GOVERNMENT RECORDINGS, LAUGHING AND GIGGLING ABOUT USING GOVERNMENT LEVERAGE TO SQUEEZE HIS VICTIM, AND THAT WILL SINK HIM.
CELLINI STANDS CHARGED WITH USING HIS CLOUT ON STATE PENSION BOARDS TO DELIVER AN EXTORTION MESSAGE TO MONEY MANAGER AND HOLLYWOOD PRODUCER TOM ROSENBERG..." !--CHICAGO TRIBUNE !

Rush never ceases to amaze me.First he claims the joke Gary Johnson told at the debate,was stolen from him.Now he claims Ron Paul's idea was his first.
What's next?Is he going to claim that he invented the internet before Al Gore?
Dan the man wrote: What will we evangelicals do when the election is held next year and the 2 candidates are Obama and Romney? One professes to know the God of the bible; the other is a member of a cult that is not the gospel of the Lord Jesus. Interesting to see how this will play out. Then, again, I don't see how a Christian can actually serve God as president. He/She will ultimately have to comprise the true teaching of the scriptures to pass a man-made agenda. Good that God will actually be the one to decide (better to say that has already decided the matter).

Actually, Clinton got elected and re-elected by a morally dumbed-down populace. Then again, poor Gary Hart didn't have a wife like Hillary to salvage his immoral reputation when it was exposed by media.
Jim is right about Limbaugh's endorsement being "the kiss of death". Modern America is so sensitive and PC that anyone as well-informed, honest, and outspoken as Rush Limbaugh is likely to be widely despised.
Yes, it is really taken out of context, but it does seem to fit this secular context!
Luke 6 39 And He also spoke a parable to them: "A blind man cannot guide a blind man, can he? Will they not both fall into a pit?---NASB
Rush's endorsement is a kiss of death, He did help get Clinton elected and re-elected, by all his attacks on him. Limbaugh is no icon to any person who can think, Our Mind & the Use of Our Gifts. Christians should have a copy of Come Let Us Reason. Most good Christian bookstores no doubt carry it.
