"You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done,"
*"You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done," he (Pres. Obama) told top GOP leaders, whom he had invited to the White House to discuss his nearly $1 trillion stimulus package.
In my opinion, Pres. Obama is now “Johnny come lately” in pointing out the obvious. It is my understanding Rush is fighting for his and other Cesspool Gilded Talking Turd's "entertainment" life. Rush is the prominent and lone turd leading the charge in the toilet bowl, refusing to be flushed without a fight, defying gravity and all things natural to nature. With the election of Pres. Obama, the pressures of the water forces have been increased many fold and it is only a matter of time when Rush et al, will go by way of the out-house and bedside slop pale. Speaking of nature, as the saying goes, once people hear good clear common-sense and have seen the city lights, “It’s hard to put them back on the farm”. This is part of the reason I like the creative concept of having Teaching Schools akin to Medical School. In my opinion, nothing less will work for the American educational system and her survival.
Pres. Obama and many members of his cabinet are extraordinary teachers and that is what this country so desperately needs. As my wife use to say, “All good teachers are not in classrooms”. There is more than one way to skin a cat.
Good teachers find the balance between “tuff love” and otherwise. A friend of mine was "nudged" off the faculty of Howard University due to the fact all he knew was "Tuff love". No balance. Further, good teachers do not blather talking points as do some third class political pundits. Good teachers are teaching every moment of their waking life; it is in their DNA and I note the extraordinary press conference Pres. Obama had with his White House staff on Wednesday as an example of good teaching practices and communication skills. I also note each and every Rachel Maddow Show. I note segments with Tom Foreman and appearances of Tom “The World is Flat” Friedman; and there is a new hopeful named Jill somebody, recently assigned to cover the State Department. There is the fearless Michelle “Her father has to be very proud of her” Bernard who is well on her way. Not there yet but I see where her sail has been set. Maybe after a book deal or even a pamphlet or two. Something! Michelle, like Tavis Smiley has a lot to say from our Black community. This list is just from the top of my head. Of course there are many others but that is not the main thrust of my post.
For years Rush Limbaugh has said he is an entertainer but, alas, he has yet to reach the heights of a Red Buttons, Sid Caesar or Richard Pryor. He is well on his way and I wish him well. I remain hopeful. The man said, “Keep hope alive!”
As always,

P.S. I got the most beautiful engraved invitation to attend the Inauguration of Pres. Obama. I treasure it. It has already become a family treasure.

P.P.S. This article makes no sense to me. Not only is it not well written but contains the vague talking points enunciated elsewhere. It is deliberately vague with pretence and aura to be substantive. I simply do not understand what happened. Maybe some examples would help put the point across. Boo!
Excerpt:
WASHINGTON, Jan 23 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama on Friday lifted restrictions on U.S. government funding for groups that provide abortion services or counseling abroad, reversing a policy of his Republican predecessor George W. Bush.
The Democratic president's decision was a victory for advocates of abortion rights on an issue that in recent years has become a tit-for-tat policy change each time the White House shifts from one party to the other.
When the ban was in place, no U.S. government funding for family planning services could be given to clinics or groups that offered abortion services or counseling in other countries, even if the funds for those activities came from non-U.S. government sources.
