Uh,Oh. Who's Going to Tell the Supreme Leader?

by: Dean Barker

Wed Mar 04, 2009 at 06:36:51 AM EST


A cherry on top of what can be charitably called the worst month of Judd Gregg's senate career:
New Hampshire Republican Judd Gregg , however, disputed the notion that GOP lawmakers want Obama's fiscal policy to fail. He suggested Reid's comments were prompted by a flap within the Republican Party over statements made by conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh.

"Most of us want to see the president succeed because this country's in such dire straits, that unless this administration's successful, we're not going to get out of it," said Gregg, who was Obama's first pick to head the Commerce Department but withdrew from consideration.

But who will tell him?

(Of course, Gregg's self-serving quote is preposterous, as is shown by his forceful opposition so far to the Administration's economic policy. But the line in the sand to RNC Virtual Chair Limbaugh remains.)

Well, I think it's time to call them what they are-- (0.00 / 0)
Rush Republicans.

Why is it that most people seem to have forgotten that Reagan got his start as a host on radio?  

Republicans are into do-overs.  Why should it be only failures that they do-over?


Senator Gregg (4.00 / 2)
better be careful, or he'll need this: I'm Sorry Rush

Republicans seem intent on proving Einstein's maxim; "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results."
