Yesterday at 12:22 I got through on Rush’s program I told him he was just whining because dems were playing the same game he has been for the last twenty years and he couldn’t handle it. Rush quickly talked over me, muted me and then hung up on me because he knew I was telling the truth. He tells only one side of the story and distorts what others say to present his lies and unbalanced propaganda. Poor wittle wush, ebwybody is picking on him. Even his pathetic little Congressional republican lap-boys were coming to his rescue to defend him because he had been caught in one of his own traps by slandering soldiers and generals as being treasonous or as phony soldiers. It’s ironic that chicken-hawk clowns, log-cabin republican perverts and drug addicts like Rush, Larry Craig and so many other right-wingers who have never worn the uniform will attack and accuse lifelong military personnel of being unpatriotic just because they disagree with this administration on their inept management of the war in Iraq.

General Wesley Clark criticized Rush because he attacked a brave Iraq war veteran’s criticism of “w” so Rush goes on his program and distorts the issue by saying Clark and liberals want to sensor him and remove his radio program from the public airwaves. He says that Clark didn’t even understand the Constitution and Rush’s right to free speech. Well as usual Rush was only telling a fraction of the truth. Clark and some Congressmen were saying that Rush should not be allowed to go on “the Armed Forces network” which is broadcast to the military overseas. He daily spouts his partisan lies and ispromoted by taxpayer money. The Armed Forces network is a government run network and as such should not be a partisan political arm of any party. They have many right-wing programs that day after day only represent one side of the political dialog. Why should our diverse military have to listen to only one side of the issues? It’s a stacked deck on it should not be allowed especially when right-wingers like Rush and Hannity consistently accuse democrat military men of being unpatriotic, treasonous and phony soldiers. Rush can say what ever he wants on his public network but don’t expect the government to endorse his one sided political views. Talk radio is one sided enough. They don’t need any more assistance from the government. Radio stations are owned by private corporations who have a political agenda to advance their right-wing views. Public air wave radio frequencies should represent the full spectrum of political thought since they are public airwaves. With the president having approval ratings in the twenties and obstructionist Congressional republicans having approval ratings at 11% I don’t think right-wing republican radio really represents the full public view of issues. The public air waves need to be taken back by the American people so they can reflect all the people and not just a small right-wing faction.

What started all this was the testimony of Gen. Petraeus to Congress last month on the status of the surge. President bush didn’t have the courage to go to Congress to defend his pathetic war plans so he sent a military general to be his political pawn hoping that Congress would not demand accountability and truth from a military man. “w” doesn’t have the courage to face the Congress and American people himself to account for this disaster so he sacrificed General Petraeus. That is the action of a coward and bush deserves to be criticized for that. The White House wrote the distorted report and General Petreaus did betray the public by trying to pass it off as truth and an accurate reflection of the situation in Iraq but he should never have been required to do what the president is responsible for doing. But that is typical of how this cowardly administration works.

I really go a kick out of "w" this week. In the last six years when Congress was controlled by Republicans and "w" was in the white house their deficit spending has destroyed the federal budget and sunk the national debt into depths unseen before so now since the Dems have taken control of Congress "w" wants to give the appearence that he is fically responsible. What a joke. The hole he has put us in will take a decade or more to dig out of and that is if we can get out of Iraq withing the next two years. Well, in order to try and prove how he wants to cut back on spending what does he choose to veto? The Children's medical insurance plan of course. Not something important like tax cuts for corporations, the top 1% of the wealthiest citizens or 10 more years of unneccessary war. Oh no, Insurance for children. Who needs that? It's such a wasteful and useless program. To add insult to injury bush lies about what the bill provides. Just like rush and many other right-wingers "w" tells half truths and then makes up the rest. He said the bill provides for children's insurance assistance for families that make up to $82,000.00 per year. That is a flat out complete lie. This bill had been written by the majority democrats in Congress and then altered by republicans to accommodate their and "w"s particular concerns. Everyone had contributed to it's creation and a consensus was reached then "w" wants to pull a reverse and veto it to prove his concern for deficites. This guy is a pathetic excuse for a leader or representative of America. The end of his term can not come too soon. He is a disgrace and a moral degenerate.
