Why are Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin Anti-American?

Recently they have said they want the president to fail. I can only wonder how people who say Barack Obama and liberals want to destroy America, want the president of the greatest country in the world to fail. So basically, they want our economy to fall, have a second great depression, and have America suffer because Barack Obama is president. Were there people who wanted George W. Bush to fail? I sure didn't. I want our government and our economy to thrive, no matter who's in charge. But conservative radio hosts only want conservatives to succeed. So who's truly Anti-American?

Update:

To bad it's not socialism. Just another fear mongering ploy by conservatives. I know what I heard, and they want him to fail. I personally don't like Obama either, but right now we need something good to happen, and don't care what party does it.

Update 2:

Oh yes the media wanted Bush to fail. Enough with this media is evil crap. Face the facts, Palin wasn't the brightest bulb in the bunch and everyone jumped all over it. Obama won't be placed in high standards if he signs this stimulus package without reading the fine print.

    this question is not worthy of my intellectual opinion

    Nothing Obama will do can prevent a deep recession now. It's going to be years before the problem is fixed. Making government bigger is not the answer. Letting the banks fail would have helped.

    I don't think they are anti-American. They want him to fail because it will prove their point about big government.

    And spare me.. how many times did you see "Not My President" when people were referring to Bush? Are they any less patriotic for being dissenters? Or that's just when someone liberals don't like is in power?

    I vote Republican, but have never been a fan of Rush (or several other conservative talk show hosts for that matter). He was wrong saying that he hoped Obama would fail, even though the next sentence was that it meant that liberalism would fail.

    We need to quit focusing so much on our party affiliation and more on America. I believe that 80% of all Americans are remarkably alike in their views and we're letting the other 20% make the rules. We need to get busy and let our congressmen and women know how we feel. They work for US.

    It sure is easy to throw the nazi tag out there, isn't it? Is half of the country Nazi? No, otherwise, you all would have been gassed 7 years ago. Exactly which one of these guys has ever expressed the idea that anyone should be gassed or exterminated in any way (with possible exception of the terrorists). Your rant shows an absolute lack of intelligence on the matter of Nazis and the above people. Actually, you sound a bit more like a nazi than any of them. You hate all lawyers? You hate all drop-outs? You hate all people who may have had a drug problem? You need some psychological counseling. Your hatred has led you to the dark side.

    Morons unit! Opps sorry that came to me. Well, it's this way newbee, if Obama has success, we will get:

    1) Government health care ( we all now how well government works)

    2) A doubling of the national debt (and this was a big Dem issue)

    3) Git Mo will close and we will pay attorneys zillions to make sure that these nice people have rights.

    4) Homos (sorry, I mean guys) will be "proud to serve in the fox fudge holes"

    5) Inflation and joblessness will go into the triple digits...

    There is more but, ya, I hope he fails too.

    Rush thinks that Obama's policies are socialist which really are not. In effect he wants America to fail thru the President's policies which are no more "socialistic" than what the Bush implemented during his term.

    I got something bigger than his stogie that he can suck on that will stuff his mouth shut permanently because i bet he's gonna love it!

    They are all antiamerican and fascist, they accused anyone in opposition to George W. as either a terrorist sympathizer, atheist, or antiamerican, when this country was built on protest and people unhappy with their government

    EDIT: "Liberals have pined and wet their beds hoping President Bush would fail. Grow up."

    Two wrongs don't make a right. Even if we did want Bush to fail, the fact remains that Rush wants Obama, and thus America, to fail. Accuse us all you want about being antiamerican, but because you did the EXACT same thing, that in turn makes YOU as antiamerican as I am.

    Ob the contrary, Rush is one of the most patriotic people I know. He just doesn’t drink Obama’s Kool-aid

    if rush limbaugh is guilty of anything i would say it is:

    "Subversive activity is the lending of aid, comfort, and moral support to individuals, groups, or organizations that advocate the overthrow of incumbent governments by force and violence. All willful acts that are intended to be detrimental to the best interests of the government and that do not fall into the categories of treason, sedition, sabotage, or espionage are placed in the category of subversive activity." - Wikipedia

    i think ole rush is guilty of trying to subvert obama's presidency. that is just my opinion.

    time will tell if that makes him anti-american or not.

    The Dems wanted Bush to fail and used the Unions (media) (Hollywood) (teachers) (musicians) to push that agenda.

    the two of them are dangerous to the United States. They have sold their souls to the highest bidder causing divisiveness never before seen here. They have done what terrorists can only dream of doing.
