I started this blog in November, 2008 asking myself what happened: why did we elect a marxist/fascist (I’m still not sure which is the better label) to be president. Were we as a nation nuts? And what now? What are conservatives exactly and what should we do?

Saturday night, Rush Limbaugh addressed the CPAC convention. (The link on Fox contains the entire transcript. If it eventually gets pulled, I copied it to a text file. Just email me and I’ll happily forward it.)

Rush was brilliant. Rush was clear. I’ve heard him on his radio show and he’s a bit of a showman, a bit of an entertainer. Not at CPAC. He was spot on.

Read it and be energized.

In it, Ann asks the question I’ve heard a lot lately: don’t you want Obama succeed? We’re supposed to be the loyal opposition, emphasis on the “loyal” part. People tell me: If he fails, we all fail. We should want him to succeed. The left certainly believe that. I’ve kind of almost bought into that. But not really.

The truth is, I don’t him to succeed with his socialist, collectivist agenda. While he’s staring off into the distance like a living statue of Lenin, I want him to fall flat on his face. I want something to wipe that smug look off his face.

I just haven’t said it out loud; when asked the question, I’ve mostly just pondered the answer. Ann has the answer. People say Ann is outrageous. God bless her, I agree that she is!

I hope somebody asks me that again.
