      It's funny how quick Republicans are to label some petty grievance as metaphorical rape, considering how perfectly comfortable they are with actual rape.

      If executive salaries are cut that means the companies will have extra money they can use to pay back the bailout money. If they pay back the bailout the country gets out of debt, which is something you claim you want Rush (the country out of debt, stop incereasing the debt) not to mention a risk/reward sturcture that doesnt reward failure will help insure we never have to increase the debt again to stay capitalistic.

      So Rush there are upsides to a Pay Czar that you would actually support.....O yea execpt you dont really care about anything other than opposing the Black Man in the White House, wo you are forced to oppose something that would get you what you want

      What is with all the Russian references these days? Are you Rasputin, Rush? If we're getting the "czars" of Russia can we adopt their architecture as well, because I'm pretty positive that the CostCo down the street is the least inventive and aesthetically pleasing structure known to mankind?

      Oh please! You mean acheived as in failed?! They had to be bailed out, remember? Now we're getting rewarded for failure?! Tell all the workers who lost their jobs that the executives deserve bonuses because lord knows, if the executives didn't have their bonuses, they might still have their jobs! Ask the ex-employees of Citizens of the South that is now part of BoA how they felt about the bonuses that BoA got!

      You really are a piece of work Limbaugh!

      Does anyone honestly deserve to make 100 million dollars a year? I don't think so. Capitalism may work when the people in charge aren't so darn greedy they think somehow they are worth millions of dollars a year. The way the republicans want this country set up the top 2% get richer and the other 98% get poorer. I'll never figure out how anyone who struggles monetarily can support republicans. Oh, I know, it's the gun and abortion thing. (But that's off topic)

      The executives at these companies were paid enormous amounts of money up front for taking excessive risk. The companies failed, but they kept the cash, the houses, the cars, and the cocaine habits. The US taxpayer bailed them out. And Rush thinks that kind of behavior should continue to be allowed?

      When will these Obama haters come out and say these words 'we hope are verbal attacks and criticism lead to your death'; because it is obvious what's driving this childish behavior. This constant hateful and stupid absurdity can only be practiced by white people as long as it is directed at a black man. It is dangerous and we the people seem to be powerless to do anything about it. Republicans have no interest in stopping this evil even though it is hurting the Party. Right now hate is trumping common sense.

      I don't see how anyone can object to pay caps for execs at companies who have not yet paid back the TARP money.

      Amazing, OBama Administration comes up with great idea for Bailed out Corporations to pay back the government faster, and Rush opposes it. Yet Rush bitches obout bailing out the Corporations in the first place. Anything the Democrats do, the Republican's and Limbaugh oppose. Especially if it makes sense. And the Republican's think they will take back Congress and the White House in the next 4 years. Hahaha, LMAO. Remember in, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe", where a planet's population became too large. To solve the problem, they loaded all the stupid people(1/3rd of the population) on a huge starship, and sent them across the galaxy to another planet (turns out to be Earth by the way). Maybe we can do that with all the stupid Conservative Republican's.
