More On Rush's Stimulus Plan

Earlier this week, Rush Limbaugh proposed a common sense plan to stimulate the economy. A shorter version of the proposal came out in the Wall Street Journal a couple days later. His plan, of course, prompted a bundle of controversy, and he went on CNBC to field some questions about it. One of the interviewers tried to give him a hard time, but the other was surprisingly fair:




It won't happen, of course, but at least it brings tax cuts and the conservative vs. liberal argument into more stark contrast. And, as long as Limbaugh stays on the front burner, he takes some of the heat that elected Republicans might otherwise be taking, allowing them some space to maneuver where it counts.

Here's another interview with Fox 'n' Friends, which was much less contentious and therefore much more informative. Good stuff:




Oh, and don't forget - he's shining a giant floodlight on the correct path, if those elected Republicans care to win the next election.

There's my two cents.
