WRUSH IS WRONG... WHAT A WACKO

Thomas R. Eddlem:

I’ve never been prouder to call myself a conservative as I was after Rush Limbaugh penned a January 29 column for the Wall Street Journal. In that column, Rush proved he was the authentic voice of Republican conservatism in the post-Bush era:

"Fifty-three percent of American voters voted for Barack Obama; 46% voted for John McCain, and 1% voted for wackos. Give that 1% to President Obama. Let's say the vote was 54% to 46%. As a way to bring the country together and at the same time determine the most effective way to deal with recessions, under the Obama-Limbaugh Stimulus Plan of 2009: 54% of the $900 billion – $486 billion – will be spent on infrastructure and pork as defined by Mr. Obama and the Democrats; 46% – $414 billion – will be directed toward tax cuts, as determined by me."

If deciding to spend more money and cut taxes solely upon polling numbers isn’t a clear statement of conservative principles, I don’t know what is. Mega-dittos Rush! That man really knows how to outline principles that define his core. Now I know why the mainstream media is crowning him as the de facto head of the Republican Party.
