Listened to Limbaugh Today

Because nothing else was on, trust me.

Anyway at one point, he complained about a cable news talking head who partially blamed people for living above their means for the recent economic collapse. Rush took umbrage that a member of the liberal drive-by media had the audacity to blame anyone but Democrats.

But, during her debate with Joe Biden, Sarah Palin said,

"We need to make sure that we demand from the federal government strict oversight of those entities in charge of our investments and our savings and we need also to not get ourselves in debt. Let's do what our parents told us before we probably even got that first credit card. Don't live outside of our means. We need to make sure that as individuals we're taking personal responsibility through all of this. It's not the American peoples fault that the economy is hurting like it is, but we have an opportunity to learn a heck of a lot of good lessons through this and say never again will we be taken advantage of."

This plea for personal responsibility - one of the few intelligent things I've heard Palin say - got high ratings from conservatives on the dials.

Funny.
