Limbaugh, Beck, Levin, Loesch – They’re Not Obtuse, They’re Not Opportunistic, They’re Liars…
The Last Refuge ^ | April 30, 2016 | sundance

As a general principle no conversations have involved more varied opinions than discussions about the supposed “conservative” media and their seeming cognitive dissonance when it comes to issues surrounding Senator Ted Cruz.

Some people think these voices were just hoodwinked by Cruz and now their ego won’t permit them to admit the falsehood. Others think the pundits are too close to the candidate to see the inherent issues and contradictions; some propose their punditry is connected to financial motives. Perhaps it’s a combination therein, but many people just can’t figure it out...

All of those aforementioned voices know this fact. Limbaugh, Levin, Beck and Loesch are not stupid, they know the construct of how this all came down.

You see, it takes an intentional action to ignore the truth of how Senator Ted Cruz created, supported, and advocated for Trade Promotion Authority. An advocate cannot claim a position fundamentally disconnected from reality without intentionally desiring to do so.

That’s why these pundit voices cannot be just merely making mistakes, flawed thinking, or errors in judgment. It’s not intellectual dishonesty at play here, it’s just flat out ordinary dishonesty.

Lying.

I loved the Blaze until GB turned on Trump. DISH subscription cancelled. Dana's radio show used to be fun: "Florida Man" segment typically funny. Really not sure how Glenn went over the cliff.

Great summary of Rush’s BS. He’s so dishonest, he’s dead to me.

You can tell Limbaugh leans towards Cruz but I think he is fair in spreading their maladies.

“Mike Lee can’t be trusted because he voted for the corker Bill, same as Cruz and everyone else who voted for that.”

Well, please list the “conservative” members of the Senate, then, because most of the lists I have seen have Lee at the top of the list.

I've just now finished reviewing the videos and some of the links at the sourced article and yet we already have several reactionary comments. Shocker, huh? /s

I think this exceptionally well-sourced article stands on its merits regarding Senator Cruz, whose repeated attempts to disavow responsibility have been no clearer than mud.

The Senator is a deceiver, among other unattractive character flaws.

Are there any conservatives in our government?

Don’t think so.

I’ve never seen any of them do anything conservative.

Nothing.

Who does that leave that we can trust as reliably conservative—Chris Christi and Trump?


Senator Jeff Sessions and Trump.

Thanks very much for asking.

Ted & the gang sided with the savages that evening.....it was one of the most disgraceful things I’ve ever witnessed in politics. This article does a great job in explaining just what Cruz did & how he did it. It’s funny that this article was composed by the guy who was a “supermarket manager” as Levin said; in an effort to degrade the guy....

“Glenn Beck did not lose his Fox TV show because of bad ratings, he lost it because Fox News couldn’t find advertisers for his show. If sponsors were willing to pay for Beck’s 5:00pm News Hour, he’d still be on TV. It was the financial boycotting that drove him out.”

Interesting (not reading any further). I cannot listen to them any more. I’d rather listen to the sounds of nature, the sounds in the neighborhood, or the sounds of traffic on the road.

‘Controlled opposition’ I believe is the term.

Exhibit A 2010 midterms. Exhibit B 2014 midterms. Those GOPes were elected on promises they never kept. The conservative radio talkers didn’t make a point of holding them accountable, either. (except, maybe, Ingrahm)

In years past I have been an insatiable conservative media addict. This election season finally finished the process I’ve gone through in realizing the truth. Conservative media is a business, nothing more. It’s pundits are masters at straddling the Conservative fence and reading trends in majority Conservative opinions and trends just like stock brokers. They most certainly know all the details and underlying truths but it’s their bread and butter to know what to say and what not to say. They’re also masters at saying things that can be interpreted in different ways.

Donald J. Trump, whether it was intentional or not, exposed them in such a way as render them and their rhetoric useless abd clearly manipulative for their own ends. In the same way, the Liberal media has been exposed as blatant propaganda.

WTF are you talking about? Have you been listening to these guys? They have been lying. They are not like the founders in any way. They get paid for us to listen, and buy books. They need to keep the gravy train rolling.

I confess that when I read your post, I was not familiar with this term.

So I googled it.

“The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.” -Vladimir Lenin

Christ. If that ain’t exactly what is going on.

So I am reading about this now and trying to educate myself.

Thank you.
