Rush Limbaugh challenges President Obama to a debate!

Rush would crush Obama, but I'd rather see the debate on TV, not on Rush Limbaugh's show.

[QUOTE="warbmxjohn"][QUOTE="battlefront23"] I know it doesn't. I just think if you point fingers at one radio show host, you should point fingers at them all.battlefront23

But the fact that he has made NUMEROUS comments like this isn't the same thing assomeone who makes a one-time slip of the tongue.

[QUOTE="battlefront23"] *face palm* You hate it him for his aggressive opinions, yes? Well you should look at the mirror...battlefront23

aggressive? no,I would say they are simple narrow minded silly and not very well thought threw.

yes and I am a 19 year old college student who's opinion doesn'tmake such a bigimpact to anybody as his does, when your a public symbol (as rush is seen as) your opinion should be thought threw before sharing it with everyone of your listeners who may take it as an ok way of thinking. which his thoughts shared are not ok more, and make me sad for humanity.

Ok... GO! Point some fingers.... I'd love to see what you can come up with that is even close to as biased, sexist, and racist as Rush Limbaugh's statements.

Joe Biden is hilarious... he just doesn't think about what he's saying sometimes :P.

That said, you can find plenty of stupid comments from conservatives. Remember Sarah Palin saying Obama was palling around with terrorists?

Well, let's be objective then. Put Olbermann next to Limbaugh, and their worst statements side by side... can you honestly find Olbermann as obscene as Limbaugh, considering the statements so kindly provided earlier (NAACP, feminist movement, etc.)? The worst I could find from Olbermann was a statement about painkillers and their effect on your ethics.

bet whatever you want, you'd lose it all. Rush is a dimwitted fool that just relies on republican talking points. his main game is distorting the truth to manipulate the undereducated masses. the only reason he has any power is because he does it so well and has such a loyal following of fans that don't care to fact-check or do their own research. it's farce. and it's sad that so many in the US think he is a force to be reckoned with. mark my words.

Rush will destroy the GOPs chances of stopping Obama short of a second term. quote me, keep it in your sig. he's already sowing such obviously inane seeds and forced Steele to recant in what - 24 hours? 48? this man has the GOP by the short ones - which is pathetic. a man so full of lies and misinformation basically controls the GOP at this point. i honestly feel bad for GOP supporters at this point.... hasn't been this bad in ages.

who would have ever thought that the once proud GOP would end up in the hands of a drug-addled, illegal Viagra prescription carrying, truth twisting radio jockey. it would be like Howard Stern having control of the Liberal party.

Obama wouldn't stoop so low as to debate Rush. why bother. it's just giving him air time and exposure no matter what the outcome is. best you avoid it if you know you'd win - because knowing Rushs audience the majority would think he won or had good points when he clearly lost.

Palin insinuating she had foreign policy experience, because "well Russia is right in my backyard"... Is a better example IMO..warbmxjohn

fidosim

yes but still the question at hand was of radio host's, just saying, saying "see?" isn't justified when the answer given wasn't giving the answer needed to make the point that was suposed to be made by giving up radio host's names. I mean don't you think?

[QUOTE="warbmxjohn"]Palin insinuating she had foreign policy experience, because "well Russia is right in my backyard"... Is a better example IMO..fidosim

yes and while your at it Obama why don't you go on the Howard Stern Show and any other people who have a radio show instead of trying to improve the country. Honestly it's not like Rush would be a person who could actually see errors in his ways if somebody pointed them out to him while simultaneously admitting he was wrong so I dont really see the point of doing what he asks.

No... sorry, I don't. Mr. Malloy was referring to the fact that nearly all of the Republicansin the joint session of Congress decided to vote against the economic stimulus package. When our economy is failing, I can't think of a good reason NOT to vote in favor of it, considering that the Republican scheme clearly isn't working. Mr. Steele was referred to by a comedienne, Garofalo, as the black chairman of the RNC, and referred to as suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, which includes her self described "self-loathing." Mr. Biden, as Obama's running mate, and his friend, most likely is not presumed a racist for his comments. I fail to see the racism exhibited by Mr. Limbaugh, when he practically referred to the NAACP as scumbags.

It'll never happen so of course Rush Lumbaugh will declare himself the undisputed victor.

Political arguments exemplify hypocrisy at its finest.

Why would anyone want to? It is just a publicity ploy.

That would be great to watch. No teleprompter for Obama this time. Hilarity would ensue.

If he does Rush's show he would have to do Howard Sterns show! :D

From an objective standpoint.

Obama takes a very long time to say anything.

Rush is much quicker.

I'd like to see it. Obama would do far better than the neo-cons in this thread think.

It would have to be at a neutral site though. Going onto Limbaugh's show (where he has all the power) would be a mistake.

The debate would also have to be structured. Definitely don't let Limbaugh set the agenda.

I've never heard of this Limbaugh. Neither did I know Obama smoked. :|

I probably wouldn't watch it, sounds like a waste of time to me.

I wouldn't expect George Bush to debate Michael Moore so why would I expect Barack Obama to debate someone of similar reputation?Sajo7

Michael Moore on The O'Reilly Factor was c|assic.

This really wouldn't be that interesting, Rush would just ask one damning question after another and Obama would just give answers that would have nothing to do with the questions and end every statement with the word "change".

Last time was last month when he had that open press conference answering questions about the stimulus package. He had no interest in really answering the questions, he just gave non-cohesive lip service as he transitioned into why it was the republicans fault. I would expect the same response if the questions came from rush.
