It never ceases to amaze me that when liberals cannot discuss the issues, make a coherent point, or begin engaging in discussing the topic at hand; they true to form resort to personal attacks and name calling. Does anyone find it amusing that Obama has admitted to using drugs for recreational purposes and Rush’s drug use was due to an actual physical condition in his body? Or could they just call it a wash and say both men made wrong choices and actually discuss the current situation Americans are in without Bush bashing, screaming about the war on TERROR or the eeeeevvvvvillll Rush?

Currently the market is trading below 7000 and is below 200 points. Conservatives are about good ideas from all sides that promote the success of ALL Americans. We are for freedoms and when your door closes to your domicile your rights to privacy are what we strongly endorse. I agree with some of the points made in the comment section and the article itself, but monkey, I do think Rush was limited as to time and should have fleshed out or more clearly defined what he meant on the policy deal. During his show he does this, but as he said during his first “National Address to the Nation” he should have given the public a more defined explanation.

What I really do not think some like Rush do not get is the state of our Union on morality issues and policy. This is not the same nation as was during the Great Depression and WWII eras. The Church is weak and the population does not easily distinguish between right vs. wrong. Educationally, morally and financially Americans are on a far different playing field that the one we were placed on when the nation faced prior crisis situations. The world is a far different place in many ways and more violent with the rise of radical Islam and the sheer numbers of anti-American populations residing in each and every country. And these folks are armed to the teeth in most banana republics, and not with just guns! Anyone recall the shipment of tanks to Kenya that were stopped due to the Somalian pirates and in turn our military? This is not our grandparents world.

As Rush alluded to, we are up against an ingrained mindset on every level. It is one thing to create good policy, but another thing to get the masses to comprehend it. There is such a stigma against anything Conservative because we were so lax in fighting back. I am not for redefining Conservatism, but this is going to be quite a task to re-educated the masses to Conservatism tried always succeeds and is all about freedom not restriction.
