Failure

Imagine you a re a German living in Wurtzburg Bavaria in 1932. A young politician is gaining power rapidly. You have read Adolph Hitler's Mein Kampf and the ideas he espouses bother you more than just a little. As he grows in power you think, "boy, I hope he does not succeed in his plan to eliminate the Jews". In other words you hope he FAILS.

That guy in charge of the Troops at Tianamen Square, I think we all hope he was not successful in rolling over the dissidents -- I bet we all hoped he would fail.

Liberal Democrats, if they are honest, hoped that the impeachment of Bill Clinton would Fail. and more than a few of you, against the war in Iraq hoped that President Bush would be less than successful -- FAIL. Remember 'I support the troops but not the mission'? That is nothing short of a wish for failure.

So why the outrage when Rush and others hope the socialist tax and spend policies of President Obama are an utter failure? I want him to fail if he really wants to tell us what to eat, how much to drive and where to set my thermostat. If he vowed to nationalize the car industry I would hope the attempt would fail. Suppose the President wanted to disband the dollar and move us to the Euro. What if he advocated turning Yellowstone into a shopping mall, or advocated filling in the Grand Canyon? Wouldn't we all hope he failed?

We all hope some people are less than successful at implementing programs we do not like.

I do know this, keep it up and Rush will have ratings higher than anyone could imagine.
