"I don't apologize. Ever. Of course, it helps that I'm never wrong."

Booming over some 570 radio stations was one loud, defiant voice, saying no -- never -- to President Obama and the thought that America may be headed toward better days.

Rush Limbaugh made clear that he's prepared to mock, scorn and badger the man with the daunting job of trying to turn our country around.

Radio's biggest blusterer doubtless has real problems with Obama. But he's clearly inspired most by a fresh opportunity to inflate himself to ever greater proportions.

Asked recently if he was depressed by the shift in power, he scoffed: "I am energized, I am honored and I am happy to be the last man standing."

He greeted Bill Clinton's presidency with the refrain "America held hostage." Now it's "the last man standing." Get ready to hear it for at least four years.

In other words, the last true conservative. The last stalwart with no intention of cutting the Democratic president an inch of slack. To do so, Limbaugh suggests, would be to give in to socialism.

In recent days, he has harrumphed about Obama as a "cult" and a "full-fledged leftist." He has mocked the fledgling administration as "a giant public relations stunt."

El Rushbo appears to believe some of this stuff.

As he told partner-in-narcissism Ann Coulter this past week on his "Excellence in Broadcasting" network: "I don't apologize. Ever. Of course, it helps that I'm never wrong."

It's funny, no, comical to hear and see an obese, glib talking person like Limbaugh pile on accolades upon himself. This tells me that this person has a serious self esteem problem.

I am not a 'socialist,leftist,kool aid drinker, lemming, and obviously not a 'ditto head'. I like to believe that I have my own mind and that I am capable of formulating a lucid thought or two on my own. I do not need the likes of Limbaugh and his wannabe's to think for me.
What does it matter whom is in office and what they represent? We have no voice in the matter. To clamor about how 'Barack The Magic Negro' is not living up to his promises is about as juvenile as a six year old.

The followers of fashion will emulate the mouth of Limbaugh and try to capture the incredible wealth that individuals such as himself are given on the backs of the ignorant masses.

I wish no ill will to Limbaugh, only that he find some enlightenment in what life really is away from his cherished golden EIB microphone. Perhaps a life changing experience is in store for El Rushbo. Time will tell.
