I wonder what might have happened if the ferociousness of the Hillary movement had been in play against Junior in 2000. And would she have allowed herself to be swiftboated the way Kerry did?

Limbaugh does not call for direct violent action, but he defines the American Left in ways that suggest violent action against them may be warranted.

Why I Am Grateful that Rush Limbaugh Attacked Me Today

My phone started ringing off the hook this morning with people calling to tell me that Rush Limbaugh was attacking me over the speech I gave yesterday at the Take Back America conference. Rush didn't like my saying that Democrats need to stop giving Republican elected officials a pass when they cynically use the very real terrorist threats this country is facing for political advantage. The latest example of this reprehensible ploy came courtesy of John McCain, who recently said he was concerned al Qaeda might try to tip the 2008 election against him: "I worry about it. And I know they pay attention because of the intercepts we have of their communications." I wonder if these are the same intercepts that gave him the information that Iran is training al-Qaeda?
