If I agree with a president &#8211; whether he\u2019s a Republican, Democrat, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.americanpresidents.org\/presidents\/president.asp?PresidentNumber=13\">Whig<\/a> or Federalist &#8211; I\u2019m going to praise him. Karen tried to claim that I had disparaged JFK in the past. I have always said that he is martyred and therefore above such ad hominem attacks. (I have teased his brother, but that is always good-natured.) In light of her call, a question: &#8220;Why is it that liberals hate facts and history?&#8221; <\/line><BR\/>Stop and dwell upon that question for a moment, because that\u2019s what Karen opposed. She didn\u2019t like facts and history being presented because an educated public is the liberals\u2019 worst enemy. A public that can take care of itself is a public that doesn\u2019t want liberals in charge of their day-to-day life. The Democrats of today &#8211; unlike JFK &#8211; offer nothing of substance to create jobs, wealth, opportunity or prosperity, nothing to strengthen our national security or homeland security. They deride our institutions and traditions. They say, &#8220;Just vote for us, and we\u2019ll take care of you.&#8221; But we don\u2019t <emphasize>want<\/emphasize> to be &#8220;taken care of,&#8221; and the government can\u2019t take care of us anyway as every experiment in socialism has proved. <\/line><BR\/>We\u2019re not the government\u2019s dim-witted pet poodles. We\u2019re independent-minded, and do best when we can take or leave the government &#8211; like, say, my cute little Abyssinian cats. When I demonstrate that this was not always the case with Democrats, that there were Democrats like JFK who didn\u2019t always disparage the private sector and see the government as the answer to all life\u2019s challenges, the liberals flip me the bird. When you use one of their heroes to debunk them, they have a cow. Instead, they should be happy to learn something new and say, &#8220;Hey, maybe if JFK was for it I need to reexamine my thinking.&#8221; But to do that, you have to have been thinking in the first place.<\/line><\/p>\n<p><BR\/>&amp;lt;*ICON*> <strong>Hear and Read Classic EIB Praise of JFK\u2019s Tax Cuts&#8230;<\/strong><\/line><BR\/>&amp;lt;a target=new href=&#8221;\/\/home\/folder\/jfktax.member.html&#8221;>(eStack: JFK\u2019s Speech on Economics &amp;amp; Tax Cuts)&amp;lt;\/a><\/line><BR\/>&amp;lt;a target=new href=&#8221;\/\/home\/folder\/kennedygop.member.htm&#8221;>(eStack: Kennedys Decry GOP Tax Cut Pitch)&amp;lt;\/a><\/line><BR\/>&amp;lt;a target=new href=&#8221;\/\/home\/folder\/eibjfkaok.member.html&#8221;>(eStack: EIB &amp;amp; JFK A-OK)&amp;lt;\/a><\/line><BR\/>&amp;lt;a target=new href=&#8221;\/\/home\/folder\/jfk.member.html&#8221;>(eStack: Supply-Side JFK)&amp;lt;\/a><\/line><BR\/>&amp;lt;a target=new href=&#8221;\/\/home\/folder\/nerve.member.html&#8221;>(eStack: EIB\u2019s JFK Ad Splash)&amp;lt;\/a><\/line><\/p>\n<p><BR\/>&amp;lt;span id=&#8221;Par_0008_col&#8221; style=&#8221;font-family:arial; font-size:12px; color:003399; font-weight:bold; text-decoration:none;&#8221;>Read More of Rush\u2019s Brilliance&#8230;&amp;lt;\/span>&amp;lt;\/td>&amp;lt;\/tr><\/line><BR\/>&amp;lt;tr> &amp;lt;td>&amp;lt;img src=&#8221;\/0.gif&#8221; width=&#8221;1&#8243; height=&#8221;0&#8243;>&amp;lt;\/td>&amp;lt;\/tr>&amp;lt;tr width=&#8221;484&#8243;>&amp;lt;td width=&#8221;484&#8243; valign=&#8221;top&#8221;>&amp;lt;span id=&#8221;Par_0008&#8243; style=&#8221;font-family:arial; font-size:12px; color:000000;&#8221;>&amp;lt;a target=new href=&#8221;\/home\/eibessential.member.html&#8221;>(&#8230;right here in Rush 24\/7\u2019s EIB Essential Stack of Stuff)&amp;lt;\/a>&amp;lt;\/span>&amp;lt;\/td>&amp;lt;\/tr><\/line><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windows\/windowsmedia\/en\/download\/default.asp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/0027.Par.0005.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"18\" class=\"alignleft\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presumably she\u2019d also allow me to quote our two other assassinated heads of state, Lincoln and McKinley, as they were both Republicans like Garfield.
