O'Connor and Aaron Cutler deliver a lively, well deserved punch in the nose to these powerful bloviators.

Rory O'Connor is one of the smartest media guys around... a devastating portrait of the avarice, cynicism, and psychopathology of one of the strangest media phenomena of our time: the shock jock.

Rush: “I want Obama to fail”

Posted by roc on Jan 22 2009 | Shock Jocks

Even Faux News was shocked at “Rush Limbaugh’s Shocking Words for President Obama!”

Here’s a taste of his interview with another “Great American:”

HANNITY: Coming off record-ratings year for you, but you — you are a passionate conservative. You’ve defined conservatives for many people in this country for years. He represents the antithesis in terms of his world view.

So then the question becomes, do you want him to succeed?

LIMBAUGH: Now — this — I am so glad that he asked me that question. That you asked me this question.

HANNITY: I’m glad to.
**************************************************************************
LIMBAUGH: If he does not eliminate the Bush tax cuts, I would call that success. So yes, I would hope he would succeed if he acts like Reagan, but if he’s going to do FDR, if he’s going to do the new, new deal all over which we will call here the raw deal, why would I want him to succeed?

Look, he’s my president. The fact that he is historic is irrelevant to me now. It matters not at all. I — if he is going to implement a far left — look it. I think it’s already decided. $2 trillion in stimulus? The growth of government. I think the intent here is to create as many dependant Americans as possible looking to government for their hope and salvation.

If he gets nationalized health care, I mean, it’s over, Sean. We’re never going to roll that back. That’s the end of America as we have known it because that’s then going to set the stage for everything being government owned, operated, or provided.

Why would I want that to succeed? I don’t believe in that. I know that’s not how this country is going to be great in the future, it’s not what made this country great.

So I shamelessly say, no, I want him to fail…
