Thou Shall Not Question Barack Obama

I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question.I question.I question. I question. I question. I question. I question.I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question. I question.

I don't think I'm making myself clear.

"After attempting to change the subject, and get the focus of the conversation OFF of dear leader Obama, the second line of attack from the minions seems to be to demonize the talk show host, and talk radio generally. I got an earful of this during a recent show I hosted at Phoenix, Arizona’s NewsTalk 92-3 KTAR. Noting President Obama’s plans to set earnings limits on corporate executives, I posed the question, 'should President Obama determine how much money you’re allowed to earn?'

"You all can’t do anything but hate on this guy' a caller said in response. 'All you talk radio guys know how to do is trash Obama' another caller said.

"Oh really? I was 'hating on' the dear leader, and 'trashing' him? I pressed further with one caller, saying “seriously…should President Obama set the limit on how much money you’re allowed to make at your job - - just to make certain that you don’t make ‘too much’?”

“'He’s not proposing to limit my pay, you idiot' the minion replied. 'He’s only limiting the salaries of corporate CEO’s, which he should be doing.' (Ja, mein Fuehrer! -- Robert)

“'So, are you saying that some of your fellow Americans deserve less freedom that you do?' I asked. 'You should be free to make as much money as you can, but your fellow American should not - - is that your point?'

“'That’s not what I’m saying, you idiot!' the angry minion replied.

"Of course, that was precisely what the angry minion was saying."
