Rush is saying that he's been LYING to you to keep Republicans in power. That's a completely different thing than saying that Democrats should be stronger. Limbaugh is essentially saying that he doesn't base his show on what he actually believes, because it sounds like he believes that Bush has been fucking up for the past four years (or six years now), but he never seemed to want to tell his audience that.
This is emblematic of something larger, where the difference between liberals and conservatives is really stark. Libs want to have actual debates where we take all of the sides and points into account, even ones that disagree with us. Cenk does it all the time. Democrats do it all the time, and exploiting that is the reason that Republicans have gotten away with so much bullshit in the past. But conservatives, on the other hand, just want to win, no matter what. Deny that anything they've ever done was wrong, stick their fingers in their ears and yell over your opposition, lie, cheat, steal, whatever. Just win. Go team!
I 100% agreed with him.
See, we aren't hardcore ideologues like you folk are. We can admit deviance from the party line.
Turns out diversity is our strength. Funny.
