Rush Kimbaugh, 'Public Enemy Number One'

Last week, President Obama had a meeting with GOP leaders in which he warned them against listening to Rush Limbaugh -- "you can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done."
As Brent Bozell said,
"There is something eerie, Big Brother-like in Obama's actions. He will deny it, of course, but this is an attack on Limbaugh's and all conservatives' right to free speech. He wants to set the stage
for the Fairness Doctrine. And he's doing it through character assassination with the goal of making Rush "public enemy number one."
Meanwhile, the liberal media have stepped up their attacks on Rush as well. MSNBC's Chris Matthews even questioned Rush's patriotism, asking "Does Rush Limbaugh hate this country?"
This after Rush dared to say he hoped Obama's socialist agenda would fail!
If liberals had their way, we would only be
allowed to read leftist news and listen to leftist radio.
They know that the only opposition to enacting their radical
left-wing agenda is conservative talk radio.
And let me be clear, there is something more to this drumbeat
attack against Rush. They will deny it, of course, but this
is an attack on all conservatives' right to free speech.
They are setting the stage for the Fairness Doctrine.
And they are doing it through character assassination. The attack on Rush personally and on all conservative talk has only just begun.
