Who are the men screaming the loudest for the GOP mantle and attention of the country? Who are the men who are on the TV and on the radio more than any other republican? Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney.
Join me below the fold in a brief discussion about a Cheney-Limbaugh White House. Apologies in advance.
Dick Cheney and Rush Limbaugh are the most vocal critics of the Obama Administration. MSNBC's Rachael Maddow nailed it earlier this week with her astute translation of Rush Limbaugh's code language. "There is a black man in the White House. Be very afraid."
Afraid is the operative word. Dick Cheney is spewing lies and half-truths about Obama's national security intentions and Rush Limbaugh is scaring the GOP and all his listeners about the social implications of Obama's policies.
It's the perfect 1-2 punch with fear as the core strategy. Their goal is to make everyone fear Obama and anything that is counter to their philosophy. Their goal is to make us so afraid that their voice is considered the only voice of reason. And, if you don't agree with them and have the balls to speak up, you will get invited to leave the GOP...ie...Colin Powell and John McCain.
There was a collective sigh of relief around the world when Obama won the election. Leaders around the world had to be thinking, good. No more cowboys. No more threats. No more wars. History may be kind to George Bush after we fully understand what Cheney really wanted to do with the power he had. Only Bush stood in his way.
Imagine the world under a Cheney-Limbaugh administration. There would be international wars and civil wars within the United States.
The world under a Cheney-Limbaugh administration would bring the end to our country as we know. Here are the 10 things you can count on if Cheney and Limbaugh were in charge:
- War with Iran over nuclear program
- War with North Korea over nuclear program
- War with Russia over Georgia
- War with Venezuela because we don't like Chevez
- War with Mexico over closing the border
- War with Somalia to fight the pirates
- War with Turkey because they wouldn't let us use their airspace
- War with China because they refuse to buy anymore debt
- Tax cuts for the wealthy
- Tax increases on the middle class
There you have it. Bottom line, if Cheney-Limbaugh don't like you, expect an attack. If you don't agree with Cheney-Limbaugh, expect an attack. If you don't do what they want, expect an attack. If you are rich, you get tax cuts. If you are middle class,you get attacked with tax increases.
