On Friday, I asked Rush Limbaugh for his response to President Obama’s description of him as “troublesome” and of his program as “vitriol.” Limbaugh told me he does not believe Obama is trying to do what is best for the country and added, “Never in my life have I seen a regime like this, governing against the will of the people, purposely.”
By using the word “regime,” Limbaugh was doing something he does all the time: throwing the language of the opposition back in their faces. In the Bush years, we often heard the phrase “Bush regime” from some quarters of the left. So Limbaugh applied it to Obama.
Apparently some people didn’t get it. On MSNBC, Chris Matthews appeared deeply troubled by the word. “I’ve never seen language like this in the American press,” he said, “referring to an elected representative government, elected in a totally fair, democratic, American election — we will have another one in November, we’ll have another one for president in a couple years — fair, free, and wonderful democracy we have in this country…. We know that word, ‘regime.’ It was used by George Bush, ‘regime change.’ You go to war with regimes. Regimes are tyrannies. They’re juntas. They’re military coups. The use of the word ‘regime’ in American political parlance is unacceptable, and someone should tell the walrus [Limbaugh] to stop using it.”

Well what other name would you give the Obama Regime? Call it like it is.
Christopher Matthew—-Walrus have big nose and mouth —much like yours. and no brains—like yours.
What you really honestly lack —is intelligence .Let me set your hot head empty space in proper order—-first of all you really do not know about "regimes"—you're blinded by your left ear- cochlea which makes you stupid as to what is actually taking place right before your very own narrow minded big eyes and nose .Obama is taking over America—-Obama is destroying America–he is doing it in a Marxist state of procedure—he is manufacturing and mandating his own Executive orders while hiring his personal- Czars Unconstitutionally—I could tell you endless facts about Obama as a regicidal monarch but you're too narrow mined to even begin to see what Obama is doing—even to you, in the eventuality of the" END" when he will trash you like smelly Walrus blubber.

Hey mr matthew:
You apparently don't get it (so, what else is new, huh?) but islamobama and his administration is a regime and we ARE at war. He is out to DESTROY the country and, if you just listen to what he has to say instead of drooling over him, you would realize that.
And, if you think we will have an election in 2010, I would be willing to bet it never happens. The kenyan fully intends to have an economic crisis that will give him the opportunity to declare martial law. And I believe that has to happen before the 2010 elections since his REGIME does not what to run the risk of losing the elections.
Wonder what you will think of Herr obama then?
Limbaugh is right, Matthews is wrong. Pres. Bush is setting the right example by staying out of the political scene, being a gentleman and not making comments about the Leftist. WE MUST DO THE FOLLOWING BEFORE THE NEXT ELECTION:
1. Stop all elected officials from using public funds, planes, personnel, etc. to stump for candidates.
(We must have paid millions for this Obama touring).
2.Campaign finance reform ( Even the rich shouldn't be able to buy an election).
3. Term limits. A must !
