The statement of this thread is true.

If you go Ballot initiative by Ballot initiative, conservativsim won by a landslide. THe reasons republicans, the more conservative party, lost is because everyone is sick of that cowboy in the white house.  When people realize what kind of views Nancy Pelosi and the like hold, people will not be happy.

IMO, Bush is a helluva burden for the Republican Party. The guy oozes incompetence, and it's easier to name the Republicans who aren't smarter than those that are. Lizzie Dole (and that's a close call) is the only one I can think of. Rest of the Republicans, or any politicians, seems Einsteinian in comparison.
  A mental midget holds the most powerful job in the world.
  Perhaps dumbness smells like sulfur.

Point out his incompetence, the problem is people that critisizes him either don't listen to him for any length of time or has already pre-judged him, try listening to his show for about a month straight and then draw your conclusions, I might have felt the same way you do but the problem is 80-90% of the things he's either predicted or said have been true!

I was referring to Bush. He oozes incompetence and is a burden to the Republican Party.

Limbaugh... Well, I like the fact that he's making people interested in politics. He speaks in layman's terms.

What I don't like, is that much like Olbermann, Franken and O'Reilly, he's telling people what to think, giving out "the truth", neatly packaged so we're bound to follow it like mindless drones. Very seldom does Limbaugh interview or open up for constructive discussions on his show.

When was the last time he invited one of those "libs" that he speaks of, and actually heared that person out, asked the good questions, got the good answers?

I would actually like to know what agenda the Democrats are going to run now. Why doesn't Limbaugh simply ask Democrats what they will do instead of theorizing on his show?

He loses credibility. Just like Olbermann and others.

All these guys are ministers of propaganda, and I vehemently opposes that type of "journalism".

I like "Meet the Press" a lot, and other forums where there's a moderator who avoids taking side in the discussion, merely moderates.

Dems want to re-open the Downing Street memo.  This one would open some eyes!

You make some valid points.  I don't think Bush is incompetent, but that is the perception with many, and with many perception is reality. 

I don't think he'll be much of a factor in 08.  Democrats won't be able to run against Bush or the war.  They'll actually have to come up with an agenda.
