I saw the Speech that Rush gave off the cuff. He only refered a few times to notes on points he wanted to raise. I did not find tone angry. He was upset with Republicans who had abandoned the Principles that allowed them to be elected in the first place. I think the reason that the Leftish MSM and all the other Lemmings who have adopted this failed theology is that it runs counter to thier world view. It really reminds me of working with Delusional or other Mental and Phsycologically damaged people. When you challenge thier delusions with reality they become angry. I am not saying that there is any Mental Illness involved with those in the MSM but it is interesting to see the similar response.

Those are very sinister comments...

Mmmmm, it's now "sinister" to verbally oppose the President. This is the considered opinion of a "journalist" (sic).

Pretty soon it'll be un-American.  Then it'll be punishable.

I thought it was informative and entertaining, the only hate I see is from the left.

Do I want this administrations policies to fail if they bring about more big government? Hell yes! I want the Country to grow and prosper, how can that happen if all our money  (and future genations) is confiscated so the government can become the "be all, end all" solution??

Rush's speech (and Coulter's) actually make me believe all is not entirely lost.

They forgot the obligatory "I'm a life long republican and and I disagree with conservatism and most things my party does."

They always find that guy...

The tone of this speech was mocking, bullying, it was full of contempt, and I thought it was a very harsh speech.

    I'm sure Rush's speech fits all those descriptions when viewed from the very feminized world of the liberals.  Hopefully barack won't break into tears and run to his room.  But from where I live that kind of talk is a challenge. If you are man enough you take it and you fire back.

All of these reactions prove what Limbaugh has been saying all along. Please note that all of the reactions are based on emotion and not fact.

At least some Obamabots were watching Rush. Maybe, just maybe, they heard what he was saying, not the way he said it. That's the problem with liberals, they only listen to what they want and then reintepret it so they can reassure themselves they're the good guys.

Bill Schneider, another "Slick Willy". This guy is one of the most biased hypocrites on CNN. Typical "liberal", butter wouldn't melt in the mouth of this phony. He sees nothing but anger in any point of view which is not his own. ""Alot of people saw anger in this speech", he says. Oh, and you determined this where, Slick?--- among your friends in the media? Illogical and false to the core. He saw the speech that way and then attributed his opinion to others.

And the anchor---stating that Schneider is among the best political team in America. Biased, hypocritical, mendacious, nasty, immature, and ignorant. --- this is the best CNN can do? "Journalism" is dead in America.

BTW, these clowns would be the first to call for a "Fairness Doctrine". Yet  no sooner is the speech completed than they rush to give it a biased review, with no review from the other side. "Liberal" hypocrites all.

NEVER,NEVER trust a "liberal"

are these reactions from the Left on par with a party that's in power? I say no!!

First, they DO NOT need the GOP to push this crazy spending agenda! If it will be so successful, why don't the Dems want all the credit for themselves? Fact: They want cover when it fails big time!!

Secondly, these attacks from Schneider and the other leftist media outlets show only one thing: FEAR!!

I wish our Leaders (so called) would understand what the left already does: Conservatism ALWAYS WINS!! 

Rush's closing comment must be absorbed into our brains (paraphrasing): We conservatives shouldn't view ourselves as the minority in this fight...

Hey Liberals, we smell your fear!!

about people saying things that hurt their "itty-bitty" feelings?  It's hard to understand why Democrats would be angry that a speaker at the CPAC would say things they thought harsh - of course these are the same people who railled against Pres Bush and called him a murderer, a liar, a drunk, bah, blah.

 Why would someone who thinks Obama's policies are bad for the country wish him success in implementing them?  Why shouldn't Rush display contempt for policies that he thinks will destroy the fabric of the nation?

CNN isn't known as "The Most Distrusted Name in News" for nothing. Lou Dobbs is the only person at CNN that I would ever trust.

It kills me when these libtards start talking about mean spirited and angry. Did these turdbots miss Palin's inquisition by anal probe? Geez, the only bullies I see are on the Left and they are trying to forever destroy the Right of this country.

Liberals have the uncanny ability to live up to their caricature.  Liberals do not get angry when they get lied to, they get angry when you tell the truth about them.

Schneider proves this point, time and again.  And apparently the idiocracy that e-mailed CNN as well. 

The truth needs to be shouted out about these socialists.  Get them to the point where they start spitting foam and veins are popping out of their foreheads.  Then laugh at them.  Works every time it's tried.

Indeed, Rush Limbaugh may have been somewhat "angry" in his speech, but what exactly is wrong with that?  Are liberals the only ones who ever have the right to be angry?  The left has been nothing but angry for eight years; in fact, the left is always angry, even when they are in power.  

"The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet."

CNN is most leftist news on television and the web.  It is further left than MSNBC, PBS, and the Associated Press.

Here is how I got there.

With the exception of PBS, other news broadcasts and websites have financial reason to give voice to the other side.  Even the NBC networks, who are constantly excoriated by the likes of Bill O'Reilly, will throw a bone to the objective viewer on occasion.  Reporters like Jake Tapper and Rick Santelli along with hosts Larry Kudlow, Joe Scarborough, and to some extent, Charlie Gibson offer mostly fair assessments of the political landscape.

Conversely, CNN "pretends" to give time to the other side.  Other than the unshakable Bill Bennett, who is clearly conservative, no other CNN commentator or reporter plays it straight.  All of their high profile hosts lean left and occasional contributors like Schneider, Cafferty, and Gergen are set up as fair analysts, but they are further left than the hosts.

Furthermore, the CNN website simply does not report stories important to conservatives.  The latest (of many) examples is their complete lack of reporting about the nationwide Tea Parties protesting the stimulus plan.  The way they filter the news on their website is ridiculously partisan. 

As such, I have chosen once again to boycott CNN.  (The first time I boycotted them was when they showed video of Americans being killed by Iraqi insurgent snipers.)  I suggest you do the same.

Schneider is just proving that he is a sycophant to anyone who is not actually drinking the kool-aid.  The only line that great, on fire speech crossed was to not be respectful and subservient to the progressive agenda and the lord Obama.  Some supposedly sympathetic ditz on Fox, just following the speech, stated that this speech was "red meat for conservatives".  WRONG!!!  As I stated in another comment, they don't understand what Rush is about.  As Rush is fond of saying, he loves tweaking liberals. (I hate that term for progressives- it is another word they have managed to coopt)  What that speech was was a giant dose of the absolute truth that the progressives have done their darndest to hide from the public using the MSM as their sycophants.  The whole thing was a giant TWEAK!

Hey progressives- TWEAK, TWEAK, TWEAK!

What is really sad is that many of our beltway and political class so-called "intelligentsia" don't understand what Rush is talking about either and spend the next several days apologizing to "moderate" elements for Rush's "red meat rant".  We got a lot of edumacating to do.

"The future is not set.  There is no fate but what we make for ourselves."

Once again, they lie about his "I want Obama to fail line".  They also fail to note the compliments paid by Rush to Obama. 

The Twitter comments?  I've never seen a bigger collection of misguided factually bereft morons in my entire life.  Maybe if they get out of their mother's basement and start actually living, they might get it.

"What you can not enforce, do not command" -Sophocles-

I saw this yesterday...as usual, poor Bill was just beside himself...

I loved it!

When the left is confronted with the truth...they can't handle it...so they use third grade tactics and do exactly what this poor critter did...but for him, it is par for the course.

I will give CNN credit...they were the only network that at least gave all of this issue regarding Rush and his speech yesterday any decent time....even Fox didn't very much at all after he was done, I was very disappointed.

SCHNEIDER: Well, he did say he hopes Obama fails. Now that in my view crosses a line. It's one thing to say I disagree with the President, I think he's wrong, I think his policies are wrong. A lot of people feel that way. Republicans voted against them. One can even argue these policies won't work, some economists say that. There's either not enough spending, too much spending, they're not the right answer but to say "I hope he fails." 

How do you disagree with Obama's policies and believe them to be wrong and dangerous and still want him to succeed?  Obama's idiot economics will undoubtedly make things worse.  Limbaugh and the rest of us want Obama to fail because it'll be the best thing for America.  My loyalty, and Rush's, is to the country before the man in the Oval Office.

The press spent 8 years actively working to sabotage the Presidency of George W. Bush.  That's a lot worse than saying you want Obama to fail.

When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

What speech was this dip-wad listening to? Isn't it the oppositions stated goal to oppose, conservatives verses liberals. Since when do liberals not come across as angry, mocking, harsh, contemptuous, and I'll add one, flipp'n lying sacks of poo.
Rush pointed out in his glorious speech that he's not allowed to oppose Obama's plans, while literally all the Democrat leaders opposed Bush every step of the way, criticizing the surge, and it's commanding general. On the economy, the leftists utilized the time tested strategic weapon of "self fulfilling prophecy". They bad mouthed the economy when it was booming, as if they knew the consequences of the bad mortgage mess that was hard charging it's way to ruining America's economy.

Again, what speech was this piss ant Schneider listening to? Any leftist give a 1hr20min speech and there wouldn't be an audience to hear it.

Someone tell me this isn't really happening....

Because with dogs its all about the tone.  Its not what you say, its how you say it.  Its about repetition and its about being firm without being aggressive, angry... bullying or harsh.

Yup, we're all a bunch of dumb animals.  Too stupid to discern content over tone.  Too willing to give over control to those who would promise to treat us well.

"The American idea was thrown out with Social Security. We nailed the coffin shut with group rights. We don't want individual liberty because we don't want individual responsibility. We want somebody else to take care of us. If we had a dictator who did a better job of it than our present system, then as long as he pretended to respect Congress, we'd lick his hands like dogs."   - Orson Scott Card "Empire"

who else is disgusted?  I sure am.

No doubt Bill Schneider took his usual poll, sampling Brentwood, Detroit, the Upper West Side, Austin, the Castro, Santa Monica, Georgetown, Berkeley and a handful of communes (you know, the whole spectrum of political thought) to arrive at this declaration. 

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." -Winston Churchill

So here's Bill: Limbaugh was 'angry, mocking, bullying, harsh, and full of contempt'. Maybe. But note that Bill didn't say Rush was wrong. Rush said, among other things, that the real home of rascism and hypocrisy was the Democrat party. Bill can't assail Rush on those facts. It's too blatantly true.

CCN had no twitters supportive of Limbaugh because only radical left wing nutballs watch CNN. Any sensible person watching CNN is doing so only out of morbid fascination of the abomination. They'll twitter places that normal people follow.

AOL has a poll on Limbaugh's speech and he got 65% thumbs up and 35 % thumbs down and so far a total of 111,708 people voted..

when anyone attacks you hard wiht just emotions and no evidence, you know Limbaugh is doing/saying something right on.
