During the Washington goings on, one of our local news anchors was in Washington interviewing various Georgians – people like Andy Young, John Lewis, etc. And then there was Senator Saxby Chambliss. He talked about the King celebration like he was a real insider instead of the Republican shill that he actually is. He said nice things about Obama and working with him “unless they start that partisan stuff.” Since then, I’ve giggled every time John Boehner [Minority leader in the House] or other Republican Congressmen talk, because they all say that [as they stand together doing partisan things]. I think they’re going to be a problem, because they’re reflexly opposing whatever comes up. I guess they’re politicking for 2010. Whatever they’re doing, it’s not thinking deeply about the plight of the country.

Rush Limbaugh talks as if Barack Obama wants to take over Banks eg is a Socialist
Rush doesn’t have a new or original idea in his head. He’s anti-anything that hasn’t come from a conservative think tank. I could at least respect him if his ideas were his own, but they aren’t now and I doubt have ever been. Free speech is a priviledge. He’s lucky it’s one we cherish.
