Chuck Hagel auditions for Obama appointment
Question: How does a RINO secure a position in the Obama administration?
Answer: Bash Rush Limbaugh.
As his Senate career nears its end, Republican Chuck Hagel isn’t holding back when it comes to criticizing members of his own party — including conservative talk radio hosts.
“We are educated by the great entertainers like Rush Limbaugh,” Hagel said Tuesday during a speech in Washington, according to the Huffington Post.
“You know, I wish Rush Limbaugh and others like that would run for office,” a sarcastic Hagel continued. “They have so much to contribute and so much leadership and they have an answer for everything. And they would be elected overwhelmingly. [The truth is] they try to rip everyone down and make fools of everybody but they don’t have any answers.”
Hagel has increasingly become critical of his party in the aftermath of the Iraq War and notably held back endorsing his longtime friend John McCain during the presidential campaign. He’s reportedly under consideration for a cabinet post in the Obama administration.

Despicable troll. Good riddance.
ROFLMAO….only a leftarded moon loon would place all of their jolly factor in the US Presidential Elections.
For me, Odinkee’s coronation inspires me to do what I always do when my horse doesnt win. Get another one and live well until the next race.
The leftards are going to wait for some emotional salve to be dispensed by Mr. Ebony Divinitas himself to ease their worried little minds about Global Warming and other Man Bear Pig phobias.
In the meantime they will experience less of their predominantly publically funded salaries, while “just being grateful to have a job”. As for me? Well, i am looking forward to making more money than I have made in my brief private sector history (it was the left that forced me out of the public sector because i wouldnt play ball with the gay mafia’s agenda).
I am going to remodel my home and add a second story.
I am going to pursue my spiritual path without worry over GAY MARRIAGE or any other red herring the secularists would torture others with in the name of equality and fairness.
I am going to raise my last child to be an informed forward thinking patriot with a purpose that doesnt rely on government for his “identity”.
The list goes on and on and on. Mock away. Sooner or later, the farce in the White House will be dismantled as the poser that he is. Too bad too. He gives a good speech ROFLMAO.
Bear1909 out
Go Feebz. Whack that troll!
Laugh all you like. And you are a complete fraud. No one introduced themselves to you that way. And you know it.
So, are you going to start telling the truth or perpetuate this little self-pity party disguised as the haughty renditional parody of yourself?
It’s your call.
You’ll be back. We are an itch you just can’t quite scratch.
Eww. Self-inflicted brain worm. Sorry dudes and dudettes. ICK
If you want to see blaming whining and moaning as well as character assaination name calling etc. look at the last 8.
Good! that will get his worthless arse out of the Senate and give a chance at selecting a real republican to replace him.
The more RINOs that want to go down with the good ship Obama, the better.
Who is this new pond scum Tanya? I never saw that one in here before. A newbie?

BlameAmericaLast Great minds run together.
Not sure if that statement alone is the reason Sen Hagel would secure a position in an Obama Administration. Moreover, taking the messenger to task vice the message is one way to go, but what Sen Hagel said, does have it’s merits. A tad bit bitter, yet I can agree with it, narrowly.
OMU what did Rush say that was so poisionous in the last few months????. I suppose you can find things that Jesus said that was poisionous too according to your morality? I always hear about these so called remarks but never hear anything specific. A troll who quotes here often once said that a few abortion clinics are bombed daily here in the USA and the guy still has not answered where these bombings take place. You would think the MSM would be covering that like firemen at a hotcake feed. Does anyone know what poison Rush has said?
Well Tanya 47 I guess we do have a difference in view of who is
I saw the Left act that way for the last eight years and eight years with President Reagan. detached from reality= Disagrees with Tanya.
Opposition to the King is a good thing when the King is wrong. It is Obama’s friend William Ayres who wants to build re-education camps and kill 25 million unrepentant capitalist. Leftist are good at that.

Of course you would the word “NUTJOB” That’s because “HISTORY MAJOR” has too many syllables to fit in your restricted vocabulary.
Reagan rose to power through eloquence and having a record of accomplishment and leadership he could stand on.
Hitler rose to power through eloquence and getting himself appointed and never really had to face
an election.
Obama rose to power through eloquence and having his opponents removed from the ballot and never really had to face an election as the MSM and George Soros handed him this one.
Reagan showed his skills as a leader as president of the Screen Actors Guild for 7 of the most tumultuous years in Hollywoods history and as Governor of the state of California for two full terms before deciding to run for president.
Hitler actually showed more leadership than Obama by running his party for nine years before becoming appointed to the position of Arch Chancellor.
Obama has yet to show any leadership skills, he’s been little more than an ineffectual representative (a representative is not a leader but a follower by definition) by voting present 137 times in the Illinois state legislature, then in the US Senate he chose to abandon the people he promised to represent for 6 years after only a few months. Any legitimate claim to leadership must be due to his role as a “Community Organizer” in the most FAILED community in the country.
Reagan Hated socialism and communism
Hitler loved socialism but hated communism
Obama loves socialism and communism
Reagan authored no books
Hitler authored Mein Kamf
Obama wrote 3 books but current investigations claim that William Ayers ghost wrote 2 of the 3
Reagan was born in Illinois and was able to prove it
Hitler was born in Austria and was able to prove it
Obama claims to have been born in Hawaii and has yet to show adequate proof of US Citizenship.
I just threw that last bit in to annoy you Tanya, mostly because you’re kind of pathetic. If you want attention that bad you should just go stand in traffic.
However you’ll see that it’s much easier to compare Hitler with Obama than it is to compare Reagan with Obama. In fact just trying to compare Reagan with Obama is quite insulting to Reagan as Reagan was an honest caring man who put his country first. Reagan would NEVER EVER consider having a child punishment. Obama is a cold bastard who thinks having a child is a punishment.
For that he can roast in hell.
if Rush is re-interpreting conservatism, who interpreted it in the first place???
just askin’, Omu…
I think the troll Tanya sounds very much like mistressjustice.

No No No. You said that it would take 100 days. “That’s why they chose Biden”you said. You also said Obama will announce himself as a Muslim while in office. So according to your (giggle) genius, Obama will be announcing himself as a Muslim sometime next spring. I can’t wait to see your dumba$$ flipflop, and back off of your idiotic ideas.
BTW, thanks for retiring the “Flinchy” schtick for something slightly less asinine. Keep being you Bear90IQ.
Huh?
Tanya said:”Again, you could pick from hundreds of political models, but you choose the most evil, heinous leader of the past few hundred years.”
A befitting comparison of someone who would let an “unsucessfully” aborted child die a cold death.
Yes, both delusional.
Who needs the pay cut, and be forced to have a “real” job? People like Rush make 10s of millions of dollars a year, reading newspapers and blogs, and then talking behind a mic.
Rush is a lot of things, a lot of bad things, but he’s not stupid.
mistressjustice
There you are. I knew I could call up to the great beyond.
Freaky stuff. I’m sorry I missed out, though.
Still waiting for OMU or someone who agrees that Rush is “poisionous” to come up with something specific that Rush said or am I expecting miracles. Still waiting for over four years for Kerry’s plan and now I can’t get OMU types to answer as well.
FAIRNESS DOCTRINE NOW!/ sarc
That should bring out OMU.
It was the obe gobe Natural Law stuff that did it.
I’m sure any ol’ body could do what he does!!
/sarc
I think you know that wasn’t my point.
Katie kuric makes 15 million a year. I love rich people regardless of their party affiliation. They spread the wealth around.
Rush Limbaugh is an entertainer. He has said so himself. The only difference between the brain-dead socialists (sorry for the redundancy) in Hollyweird and Rush is that he is intelligent. He stands for what is right, what is American, what is good; he stands for freedom.
The liberals can’t stand him because he exposes them and all their warts to a group of people that are tired of same socialist spew coming from the old media.
His listeners know what he stands for; it’s what they stand for, too. Unlike Barack Obama, Rush proudly wears an American Flag lapel pin. He doesn’t flip-flop on the issues like John “f-ing” Kerry does. He doesn’t bash the military like Durbin, Murtha, et.al., and then live off the taxpayers, in comfort and the safety of which that military provides.
Rush believes in freedom. Obama believes in socialism. That is the ultimate statement about their differences. Rush doesn’t care to run for office for the same reason many of us would never run for office; it is beneath us.
Tawnya the troll accused a certain poster (ahh-hemmm) of being sexually assaulted by a family member (along with several other schizophrenic delusions) in order to prove her maturity, intelligence and political prowess.
So, I believe another poster was wondering where you were…since you’ve made reference to posters drinking problems, sexual preferences and other drug use (didn’t you ask once if I would take a PCP test or something?)…
So here you are, and your post further endorses Blame America’s point. You guys just don’t need any help from us do you?
(Hands her a Walter Mondale T-Shirt in replacement of the Obama one)
Here…Yer gonna need it!
My post above was @ Misstress - I forgot to include her tag.
I’ve been ask to run for several offices but I can’t bring myself to make the moral compromises that are necessary.
hilarious.
What now?
What again is it that Rush said that was so bad or misconstrued in this last election cycle? Those who want Rush to run for office can ask the same question why doesn’t Chris Mathews run or Keith Oberman or someone on the left who has all the answers?
Forget it. Hard to type on an iPhone.
Chaps like “Arthur” he just cracks himself up sometimes….
or he just added up Misstrejustice and tanya’s IQ, and it was under 80.
Especially in the dark with that pole dancer in your face.
Wasn’t Arthur a drunk?
Okay.
Sweet, simple AJ. You really are quite the jolly, old Falstaff. Way to have the back of your “friends”. Sweet, simple AJ. Aweeeee.
say what you want about me Family, but I’ll be damned if I let you call Krystal a “pole dancer.”
Oh. Yawwwwwnnnnnnnn.
yes he was chap, but not my intent.
just the humor part…..
Sorry How about a socialist pollist.
krystal wanted to be a high jumper they just installed the pole wrong.
Man, that’s like way below the bell curve.

Hey boy:
I thought we were ignoring each other. I hope the Angels go 30-132 next year. There, take that. Now, go tell MM everthing that I’ve said.
Oh, sweet, simple AJ
What do you want for a nickname? Here are the choices:
Dopey
Super Eric
Butters
Opie Cunningham
Beaver
I’ll choose one, but I’d love your input.
Or way below Krystals horizontal poll.
Sorry, nobody here is interested in you describing your love life.
I’m going to bed sweetie, and you might want to do the same unless mom’s calling your in sick. I’ll check back this weekend, and hopefully you’ll have a nickname picked out. I’m leaning towards, “Butters”. Night, night sugar.
Poor, sweet, simple AJ.
take a hike, loser.
The sexual tension between you two could be cut with a knife. Kinda like me and atheling.
I’ll take sweet and simple over loser libtard any day.
edit= you in sick
I’d propose a foursome, but AJ is underage. When Opie gets older we’ll have a “key party” with you and atheling the thing.
Night, night(cough, 30-132).
Peace
I don’t think AJ is into beastiality.
Okay. That was a good one. Admit it mj.
Yeah, and I like women.
Yep…yep…being a corn-fed pork supporter is tough work. Hagel has not stood for conservative principles for awhile now…so bending over for his liberal buddies will not be an uncomfortable position for him.
Where did chapoutier go? It must lap dancing time.
Is that the best you could do?
The RINOs are coming “home” to roost. Good. Makes it easier to catch em.
Wow, a new low on this blog. That is pretty disgusting Michelle and should not be ignored. You took care of Russian porn sites. You should take care of gushing porn mouths.
That phrase right there epitomizes liberals. They hate anyone that will interfere with their free ride, handout or party time.
They hate the teacher, but love the inattentive substitute teacher.
Generally speaking, they hate the concept of responsibility and are very often, not always, but very often, inherently irresponsible themselves. Oh.. you’ll see degreed liberals, Dr’s, lawyers, engineers and so on, but that core irresponsibility seems to rear its head so often.
Citing exceptions doesn’t change this.
I agree. When the trolls come here just to gloat and insult, they need to go. Especially when they bring the conversation into the gutter.
