In a sense, I agree. But the truth is that all his rhetoric serves is to further depress the troops.<br /><br />And THAT is a serious problem, IMHO. There's something weird going on with this whole thing. I think they're playing major psy-ops and we're falling for it.Tea Party at Perrysburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14027340628609336662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984350225136093307.post-33844959138663429722013-06-15T13:13:09.681-04:002013-06-15T13:13:09.681-04:00Limbaugh is perplexing.

Not only will Benito not be impeached, Lerner will not be prosecuted, Shulman will not be prosecuted and named an entire thug's row of henchmen who criminals who will escape justice. Maybe Limbaugh has lost his will to fight.BOSurvivorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07414709731465571302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984350225136093307.post-67829949690431327862013-06-14T08:17:50.422-04:002013-06-14T08:17:50.422-04:00I thought about what you said all day yesterday an...I thought about what you said all day yesterday and I'm uneasy with your answer. My problem is that the "newly active" and inexperienced among us have other lives we can retreat to when things don't get well on the political front. Many of my Tea Party friends are so stunned by events they've completely withdrawn into the safety net of "real" life as opposed to political life. Plus we see this grand country slipping away and helplessly can do nothing to prevent it. In that sense, Obama has won this battle.<br /><br />People are terribly disheartened; when you understand that talk radio is such an integral part of our lives--the only way, really, we can connect with our way of thinking--to hear, day after day, repeated dreary despairing monologues only serves to further demoralize. And who knows what else is coming?<br /><br />This is why I listen to the Red Eye Radio guys' podcasts. They use humor and incisive insight to make their points, always bearing in mind the long picture.<br /><br />But thank you, Maggie Thurber, for your contributions in such a blue part of the US. We continue to fight the good fight, no matter the cost, but it sure gets tiring. Keep up the good work.Tea Party at Perrysburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14027340628609336662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984350225136093307.post-67199045903880278342013-06-13T07:12:59.471-04:002013-06-13T07:12:59.471-04:00Most tea party people are new to the fight, but ma...Most tea party people are new to the fight, but many of us, including Rush, have been fighting the battle for a very long time.<br /><br />It's hard not to get depressed or discouraged over what's going on - at least for a short period of time.<br /><br />Thankfully, we have the newly-active members of tea parties across the country to re-energize the ranks and give encouragement to the political veterans. <br /><br />They allow those of us who are tired to step away from the front lines for a bit - they take the lead, giving us the time to rest and recharge before rejoining the battle.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677808307727487766noreply@blogger.com
