Okay, the DCCC has started a petition against Rush Limbaugh for saying he hopes President Obama fails. Of course, his words were taken way out of context as usual when what he said was he hopes Obama's socialist policies fail.
So the DCCC has started a petition against Rush to condemn him for speaking ill of Obama.
WTF is wrong with these people? I didn't see any Republican start a petition for all the shit said about Bush. Now granted, Bush did a lot of stupid things but no one tried to stifle the democrats from saying the horrible things they did about him and other republicans.
I'm amazed at the gall of these democrats. So anyway, at the DCCC website people are condemning Rush but then Rush linked to the same comment page and all of the comments since about 11:00 pm last night are against the democrats - on their own page!
Here's the link to the comment page:

Dear Friend,
Last week, Rush Limbaugh gave us a preview of the outrageous Republican attacks that are on the way against President Obama and every Democrat working for change. Rush actually said that he 'hopes' President Obama fails to meet America's challenges.
Listen to Rush in his own words, saying "I hope he fails."
Limbaugh's cheap shot at President Obama might be the first by the Republican attack machine this year but we know that it won't be the last.
We need every grassroots Democrat to show Rush Limbaugh and all of the Republicans what they're up against if they start attacking President Obama and Democrats who are working to end the failed GOP policies of the last eight years.
Tell Rush what you think of his attacks on President Obama. We'll send him your comments.
Jobs, health care, our place in the world - the stakes for our nation are high and every American needs President Obama to succeed. Creating real change requires every American stand strong against Rush Limbaugh's attacks - and all of the other partisan attacks from desperate Republicans that are on the way.
Let's start right here and now.
