Radio Addresses for Dummies

Those of you who have chosen to read Limbaugh's speech to CPAC rather than listen to it are missing at least 40% of what is in the actual speech, which you can see and listen to on CSPAN HERE. What you miss when reading what he says rather than viewing and hearing it are the nuances contained in the pauses, facial expressions, and tone of voice that convey meanings that are deeper than just the words. You gotta give Rush his props, the son of a bitch is bright, largely right (correct), and is the best speaker out there including His Holiness. He encapsulates perfectly what conservatism OUGHT to be, not what it has come to be under Bush. We are our own worst enemies if we consider the Bush years conservative. They were incompetent, lazy, lacking in any direction, and most especially inarticulate. They were decidedly NOT conservative. It's not conservative to steal money, run Ponzi schemes, lie to stockholders, and refuse to govern. It's not liberal either. Those things happen when incompetents and crooks are in charge of both government and business. So go over there to listen and look, you won't be sorry. The segment is 45 minutes long, but watching it when you can hit the pause button makes it easy to absorb if you are interrupted by a diaper change, drug deal, or school calamity.
