Rush Limbaugh Explains the Flight 93 Analogy

Rush explained it this way on his show today. In the Flight 93 Analogy, the United States is Flight 93. Conservatives are the passengers trying to take the plane away from the hijackers. The Democrats and the Media are the hijackers of America who are trying to transform the country into something it was never intended to be. So conservatives must attack or allow the Democrats and the media to successfully transform the country. Is this a reasonable explanation? Source:

Rush Limbaugh summed it up perfectly. That is exactly what I have been thinking. It is a perfect analogy.

I am not sure we can portray political affiliations as bad guys and good guys. There are good people on both sides. I think I would really like to see at least one third party candidate on the ballot.

I appreciate the suggestion to read this discussion. But honestly! As soon as I saw the name "Rush Limbaugh" my mind shut down. I do not listen to the words that come out of his mouth. He has never said anything that I wanted to hear.

I am not sure either one is all that good.I guess we should just pick the one that we think is the best between two evils.

I think it all is a joke. From this point on I am off the subject of politics until next time I get a bit drunk.

Yeah, pretty much. The country was never meant to be what they are turning it into.

A Constitutional Republic, the way our founders set it up, with each branch of government using only the powers given it by the Constitution. A Republic where Congress makes the laws -- not the courts or the President. A country where the President and governors enforce the laws in effect instead of picking and choosing which they will enforce. There is a place for executive orders in enforcing laws, but not for making them or ignoring laws Congress has passed.

Nope because he is negating the GAY Democrat who started to take the plane away from the hijackers!

@PeterGagliardi he forgot to mention that there will always be one little piggy who will cry wee, wee, wee all the way home. Let's hope the good guys win.

It's a good analogy but I think the issue is far more complex.
