It's his lifeblood. Read More Why I Am Grateful that Rush Limbaugh Attacked Me This Week It's one thing to have the likes of Rush Limbaugh blatantly politicizing terrorism -- he is, after all, little more than a toxic curiosity.

Eric Schmeltzer

There's a key test that's going to be administered between now and August that Obama has to pass? Maybe Obama will see a phone ringing at 3am, and if he picks it up, he passed the test?
