israel slaughters unarmed civilians in international waters and you defend that. factually, a majority wanted more--a single payer health system. historians have already placed bush among the worst. im proud to be a progressive who can deal with facts, and cares about other human beings.

Hi Lynn....
Just thought I'd tell you that I heard an audio clip of Obama giving "kudos" to Paul McCartney when he was receiving his award for his music and he had the audacity to say to Paul, "On behalf of a grateful nation"....after a slight hesitation he continued with his kissing up to Paul. I don't know about you, but having had two grandfathers buried with full military honors, I feel that Obama did a complete disservice to all our veterans and their families by "hijacking" this phrase to "honor" a liberal man who ended his award reception by berating George W. Bush. Our President has really brought shame to himself and this nation as its "representative" to the world.

Thanks

George

i will not resort to name calling as you have done lynn. no, i am not stupid. and since you
do that work full time, i would think you would be better informed. just because you can
talk on the air with no one challenging you, does not make your words true. the people
of gaza are in an open air prison. israel has cut off supplies they need to rebuild, after devastating
their country during the recent invasion. as you know over a thousand people, many women
and children were killed in the assault. the israel blockade includes building supplies, notebooks,
chocolate, and many other items that are not weapons. the entire world has condemned the blockade
and the massacre in international waters, including the security council. the UN Goldstone report
also condemned the massive force israel used in gaza, killing many civilians.

if you doubt the horrible conditions in gaza, you can research that.

if you doubt the rest of the civilized world--i have personal information on the massacre. one
of the peace activists on the boat, ann wright, is a personal friend of mine, and has spoken to our group in
waco. she was with the state dept. and resigned to protest the iraq war. she is NO terrorist.
the boat also had nobel laureates and many reporters. so you are misinformed.

before you call me stupid, you should have your facts straight.

Alan,
You are stupid.

Lynn,

Enjoy your program.
I had a thought where an analogy came to mind which may explain why Democrats do not understand what is truly happening to our economy. By analogy, a car which has a generator or alternator must generate enough electrical energy to keep the battery at full charge and run the engine. The Democrats must be thinking that our economic engine can run without a generator or alternator. The economic generator is the private sector. The Democrats are running the engine directly from the battery. One day, that battery will go dead. The report of 95% government jobs created last month is similar in my view to running the engine directly off of the battery.

Water board:

SOL,

Today, during your right wing extremist show, I came closer than I ever have to being a first time caller. You've been screeding local water regulators and at other local, state, and national regulators. I vehemently agree! While I feel some compassion for commissioners and councilpersons, since we are fortunately in a big time growth area replete with attendant growing pains, I am with you on calling them out (into the street). I have something for your airwaves that is so palpably obvious that most folks don't even see it.......not even informed and engaged talk show hosts. Keep reading.........

Allow me to get in your face about water, its value, and conservation of. Now bear with me. Back when Mother Nature and the Indians were running things locally this area was known as the Blackland Prairie. Yes prairie. Very few trees and these were large trees such as Oak and Pecan. Since that time we have rejected the stewardship model of Ms. Nature and Native Americans and have further complicated things by allowing the Environazis to superimpose their model.......think California and their frequent wildfires. But I digress. Reset the calendar back about 150 years. There were no huge trees on the banks of the Leon River and there were no fencelines that are now grown up with Hackberry trees and Cedar trees. This noxious vegetation was basically controlled with fire (Dirk Aaron would call this prescribed burn). Additionally, we have huge areas of land that are thickly grown up with Hackberry trees that are 40 feet tall with a 3 inch diameter trunk. Got the picture? And we wonder why there are no Bobwhite quail. The Environazis believe this is "nature" at its best and meanwhile their model is the cause of those logjams in the Little River that threaten downstream bridges. Here's what's happening: These noxious trees, mostly Hackberry and Cedar, have been allowed to "take over" the streamsides of said rivers and creeks where they have shaded the understory and deprived native grasses of sunshine. Native grasses, and not Hackberry and Cedar tree roots, are deterrents to erosion. So, if there is no native grass(es) holding the streamside soils, erosion will cause the noxious trees to topple and fall into the aforementioned rivers and creeks. Solving this simple problem should be the objective of those water regulators that are caught in your crosshairs instead of spending half-a-million bucks on a building. Got it?

Lynn, after hearing out Sir Paul and Ariana, I'm resolved not to vote for the Bush/Chaney ticket! Please encourage your listners to follow my lead.

Lynn,

The public debt of the United States Government is $8,577,329,845,866.97 as of the close of business on 6/3/10 (http://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/BPDLog ... ication=np). The GDP of the United States based on 1st quarter final results is $14,601 trillion. That equates to a debt of 58.74% of GDP. That is a long way from 100%.

The much larger debt shown on the Bloomberg chart includes U.S. intergovernmental debt, which is simply an accounting device which tracks money transfers from one part of the federal government to another.

The growth rate of the U.S. GDP according to the final 1st quarter results is 3.9%. We are currently paying interest on our national debt of 2.47%. In fact, the total percentage of revenue received by the federal government which we are paying in interest on the debt is around 10%.

But wait, there's more!

Our GDP is currently growing at well over half a trillion dollars per year ($516.7 billion). The debt interest equates to about $212 billion, or about 22% of GDP growth.

Now, let me say that I recognize that the debt level and growth rate we are currently experiencing is unsustainable. I also know that at many points in our history the same was true. In the early 1940s we ran annual deficits that were as large a portion of the GDP as is our total debt today.

The reason that the world considers the U.S. to be the most creditworthy entity on the planet is that we have the capacity and a plan in place to grow our way out of this debt level just as we did following World War II. The question is whether or not we will follow the plan. It involves cutting defense expenditures severely, some tax increases, mainly on those making more than $250,000 per year as a couple or $200,000 as an individual, and bringing down the cost of Medicare. The tax increases on investment income contained in the recent healthcare bill go a long way toward reducing that debt.

By the way, the largest component in the deficit is the money being spent on fighting the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Thanks for the email,

Jeff

Lynn, Rush is catching alot of flak over having the over the hill flamer, Elton Clown, as a wedding singer. Rush generally not a supportewr of the gay lifestyle has been called a hypocritiate for hiring this man to sing as his wedding. Myself, I think Rush is showing that the typical liberal would do anything for money. I don't know if this was his thinking, but I'm praying he isn't slipping.

Lynn, again the brillance of Rush comes out...he nailed the obama administration as a regime and has caught a lot of flak. Was he wrong?
Where else but a dictatorship do you use phrases like putting your boot on someones neck or kicking someones ass? Folks that use these words are products of regimes or the streets of Chicago.

Lynn, Last week I sent you a request to look into a charter school organization with ties to the Radical Islamic Imam named Fethulla Gulen and his organization. They have established roots in Texas and have contributed to both Democrats and Republican state and Federal congressman and senators. They ship money overseas to questionable resources. Problem is this group of schools are Tax Payer funded. What do we do next? How can we stopp the indoctrination ?
