Rush Limbaugh actually got turned around today and admitted the Bush tax cuts created the deficit


 
When this is all said and done, Obama wants it understood that this problem was caused by George Bush; that the Republicans are responsible for the debt. The Republicans are responsible for the deficit. The Republicans are responsible for the entitlements maybe not being able to pay what their promises are, because Busch didn't take enough money from people who could afford it.

Well, not only did he do it, but a majority of voters also blamed George Bush. We saw it in the polls. So what I think Obama is aiming for is, essentially, a confession from the Republicans that this is their fault. And in getting it, in getting that confession, Obama seeks to ensure that there will never, ever be tax cuts again. "Because look what they led to." And when or if the Republicans concede, that will be the story.


And at the end of all this, the Republicans will end up admitting that President Obama is right. Now, Boehner's not gonna call a press conference and say any of this. That's not going to happen. He won't have to. The media will take care of this for Obama. A confession: "Republicans admit that if there had been higher taxes for the past decade, there wouldn't be a deficit, and the national debt would not have grown. The budget would have been balanced.

"In fact, we'd still have a surplus! We would still have the Clinton surplus, if Bush hadn't cut those taxes. Tax cuts are to blame." That will be the single lesson learned when this is over: "Tax cuts caused this," and 98% of the American people will be told that tax cuts for 2% caused this, and they will accept that. They will believe that. So that down the road, the next time... What is the Republican Party singularly known for? Cutting taxes.

Hey DUmmies, here is a clue for you, Rush was not saying that is the truth, in fact it is the opposite, he was just explaining the thought process of the left. For such intelligent people you guys get fooled quite easily.

0 bongs. No admiring bystanders. No bushes. No cops jumping from.

I'll give 1 Cheeto for bringing the enlightenment of the Rush to the DUmmies but that is all.

I wonder if "underpants" and other DUmmies ever get embaressed by their own stupidity.

I just don't think that's possible.

No, because they never venture outside their little echo chamber to experience diversity of thought. Their own dogma is all they hear.

If someone pats you on the back every time you fart, pretty soon you think you're playing a symphony.

Afraid DUmmies might see it, and find out that RL did NOT say that.

That's EXACTLY why the DUmmie didn't post it. I just listened to the pod cast from Thursday. Rush was illustrating what the Dems are trying to do with their Santa Claus tax the rich financial cliff BS.

Their desire is that tax cuts are forever associated with misery and greed.

He said the liberals only want people to believe the  Bush era tax rates only created huge deficits and nothing more.

The DUmmie got it wrong. That's what happens when you rely on Media Matters to tell you what you heard.

These are the same DUmmies braying during the Bu$h years that 5% unemployment was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!

That seems to happen quite a lot with the primitives.

Damn, I wish I could hear Rush Limbaugh.
