			<![CDATA[Appearing on CNN today, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger was asked what has become a popular question, and a Democratic talking point, about his party: is Rush Limbaugh your leader?<br /><br />Schwarzenegger, a former Mr. Universe and a moderate, responded thusly: "I think that they say that Rush Limbaugh is the 800 lb. gorilla in the Republican Party, but I think that's mean spirited to say that because I think he's down to 650 lbs., so I think one should be fair to him about this whole thing."<br /> ]]>

Schwarzenegger went on to say that, "in all seriousness," the GOP should expand its tent.]]>

				<![CDATA[<p>Arnold just showed his true nature and true party affiliation.  Anyone with common sense since the Clinton years knows who the one person is that has kept the morale of the Republican base informed and motivated and it certainly is not and will not be the likes of a Colin Powell or an Arnold Swcharzenegger.  Not only can Arnold not speak English well, he has not a clue what being a Republican is in this day and time. Marrying into the Kennedy clan and trying to convince the country he could turn Republican was a joke.  No one has ever taken him seriously in the party nor have they as even a B grade actor.  </p>

<p>Ridiculing Rush Limbaugh over his weight is so low class and grade school mentality. Rush is a genius and the Democrats know it..that is why they are going after him 24/7. The joke is on them because followers of Rush over the years trust him and know where he is coming from....he loves this country in more than name only.</p>]]>

				<![CDATA[<p>Limbaugh is a fat, doctor shopping drug addict who should be in prison. Since he continuely remarks on others appearances (as you surely know), then he is fair game in that regard. The only genius he displays is his ability to know how to play a corrupt legal system well enough to dodge his true reward. We can all hope and pray that like OJ in the end he will land where he truly belongs. 9assuming he lives that long with his habit).</p>]]>

				<![CDATA[<p>Obviously another left winger commenting on someone they have never listened to.....just the garbage the left wing media puts out for the unread fishes in the sea to grab at.  Rush took narcotic pain killers for a good reason and just like my own child got hooked on the effects of the drugs that were  prescribed for him after his surgery.  He went through detox just like my son did and idiots from the left dehumanize themselves with this callous 'no-brainer' comments. Hate filled rhetoric and thoughtless remarks by Eddie tell a lot more about his character as a human being than it does about Rush.</p>]]>
