Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a great constitutional conservative and great friend of Free Republic. Doesn't post much anymore but has had an account here (holdonnow) from nearly the beginning. He stood up for FR when his good friend Hannity was running us down. Also when O'Reilly accused us of not moderating our forum good enough against racism.
I hate to see our good friend getting trashed on FR. I understand why people are upset with him over his position against Trump, but best advice I can give is if you can't stand him, don't listen. I had to quit listening to Beck several years ago after he went nuts, and now rarely tune in Limbaugh. I click on the Mark Levin Show, maybe once per week, just to see if our old trusted ally is back. Sadly, he's still missing in action.
I pray that Rush and Mark come to their senses pretty soon and realize that the primaries are over and the great constitutional conservative Ted Cruz lost. Badly.
We can't go back and we cannot replace our candidate. It's Trump or Hillary. We have to do all we possibly can to make sure Hillary is defeated! And that starts with not bad-mouthing OUR candidate.
There are no do overs and no crying in politics.
Notice that I said "OUR" candidate. This is not like when the GOPe with their big donor bucks installed one of their own sure-losers as the Republican candidate (McCain, Romney, et al) and then told us to suck it up. Which most of us did, even Levin and Limbaugh, because we knew the damage that Obama would do to our country. And he did. And Hillary's damage will be even more severe because she'll be building on Obama's slide into godless socialism and she'll have an immediate shot at packing the courts with godless liberal activists. These judges will be with us for a lifetime. And their rulings for generations. She'll also grant amnesty and voting rights to millions of illegals and throw open our borders to millions more. And then fling the borders wide open for the Muslims. Yup. Sharia law would be coming to a country near you. And the failing Obamacare? No problem. HillaryCare's single payer system will straighten that right out. And she'll save our planet from "climate change" by killing off all our capitalist industries.
Trump was voted in by we the rebellious grassroots voters who are sick and tired and fed up and said NO MAS to the political ruling class and their open borders donors.
This is a voter rebellion and Trump is OUR champion.
We fully intend to crush Hillary and the uniparty in November and reclaim America for AMERICANS!!
Why did we choose Trump to be our champion:
Secure the borders. Build the wall. Enforce the law. End sanctuary cities. Do whatever is humanly possible in deporting as many illegals as we possibly can and or dry up their prospects by enforcing the law and many of them will leave on their own volition.
Slap a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration until we can find out what in the hell is going on! Meanwhile, bomb the shit out of ISIS. And take their oil. And find out what's going on in the mosques.
Rebuild the military!
Throw out Obama's illegal/unconstitutional executive orders and executive agreements. Repeal Obamacare!
Get a handle on trade deals and make sure Americans come first!
Cut the taxes, cut the spending, cut the regulations, cut the government; return the powers and functions reserved to the states back to the states per the constitution and the 10th amendment.
And it's not just about the constitution and national security:
End the ridiculous war on coal, gas & oil, bring back manufacturing. Drill, baby, drill; mine, baby, mine; build, baby, build, farm, baby, farm, produce, baby, produce. The Business of America is business.
Strengthen our economy and create a business friendly environment!
Jobs, baby, jobs!!
Set our people free and let them produce and prosper!!
This is the voter rebellion we've all been longing for. Even bigger than the tea party. Pray Levin and Rush join us. We need their full-throated support to ensure the defeat of the corrupt, America-hating, capitalism-hating, God-hating Hillary and the election of OUR candidate. Donald Trump!!
One of the slogans from the America revolution was:
Join or die!!
Another:
Don't tread on me.
And who can forget:
Give me Liberty or give me death!!
Jim, I certainly appreciate your attempt to knock some sense into Levin’s head. You are a kind and dedicated FRiend.
I, however, am not able to overlook his obstinance that now borders on cuckoo Beck territory. As plenty of others have so eloquently explained...Levin’s constant bashing of Trump (I remember when Mark interviewed Trump, not long after he announced his candidacy and I actually enjoyed their exchange) has proven that he is perfectly fine with ILLary winning the Presidency. UNACCEPTABLE.
I have not listened to his show in MONTHS, I have ran over his books and discarded them and I have removed his app from my phone and iPad. This, after being a LONG TIME listener, book buyer and supporter.
I do not comment on his show threads, and will continue to avoid them with the “Thumperian principle”, in respect and honor to YOU, dear Jim.
Again...your attempt to assist your FRiend, Levin, is quite commendable. He owes you a debt of gratitude, IMHO.
The cool thing is if we stop listening they go away - as in canceled.
And quite frankly these shows are mostly all annoying commericals
Love Mark Levin, a true patriot. Have read all of his books and have been a daily listener for 8+ years. My late mother was a huge fan. He gave her so much hope. It makes me sick to see all the bashing. He is entitled to his opinions and he has a large audience. Cruz was my candidate and had my vote in the primary. He would have made an outstanding president. Maybe he still will someday. We just have to defeat Hillary and hope Trump surrounds himself with a good cabinet.
Clearly, you haven’t been paying attention. I am not a Cruz supporter.
Yea, until he stabbed us ALL in the back!
It makes you sick to see all the bashing? Mark’s you mean?
If he was Never Hillary he’d be working hard to see Trump get elected. He is not. That is Never Trump as far as I can see. What does it gain him to get on the air waves and sneer at Trump and his followers? Nil, that I can see.
Quite simply, Mexico has too much government - and that’s the way they like it.I don’t have a problem with our government saying they will assist the Mexican government in addressing their country’s problems if Mexico agrees to stop the illegals and repatriate the illegals in our country.
Well, fine - but lots of luck with that. Mexicans need to understand that the reason Mexico is such a great place to be from is socialism. If they all understood that, they wouldn’t need to emigrate - and Americans wouldn’t mind that much if they did immigrate here. But, physician heal thyself - before you can convince Mexicans, you might first convince “liberal” Americans.The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)We all of us - even conservatives - tend to sucker for the MSM. We are naturally curious - and curiosity makes us want to believe.
It makes me sick to see all the people bashing Mark after all he has done for us.
Clearly, you haven’t been paying attention. I am not a Cruz supporter.
Correct. He is not in the race. You are Hillary supporter. I see you have no time to support Trump but plenty of time to attack Trump supporting Hannity and defend defacto Hillary campaign surrogate Mark Levin.
100%
I think you replied to the wrong person.
He’s going to get Hillary elected...that doesn’t make you sick?
I specifically remembering going after FR not by name but by calling us some name on a subscriber site that does fund raisers.
“Right on, Jim, and full speed ahead! I can agree with pretty much everything you said. And it is sad that a lot of people here have turned on Mark Levin, some were downright rude to him when he come on a thread one night, and I was ashamed, seriously! However, like you said, I hope they’ll come along soon.”
Aw, gee? People were rude to Levin? And just because he has an irrational hatred of our candidate and therefore is working to get the most vile, corrupt, evil candidate ever to walk this Earth elected instead? How could we POSSIBLY react to that with... gasp... rudeness?
I’d have given these clowns a break if they had only acted like petulant little children UP TO the point where Trump actually got the nomination and their “ideal conservative” Ted was shipped home from the convention in disgrace. Afterwards? There’s no excuse for their behavior. None.
Wow, you summed that up well.
Good post Jim.
<< “ Labor Day is here. Time to shift the campaign for freedom and against socialism into high gear. Quit pining and whining. Suck it up. Start leading!!” >>
Could not agree more. This quote is quite fitting for Mark Levin, National Review and the press boys, as well.
We look forward to Levin and the neverTRUMP crowd getting on board for the last lap of the last race on Labor Day. It is time to fish or cut bait.
We’ve enjoyed about as much as we can stomach from them as it is.
Personally, I see “RED” every time I happen across that regular, daily, PUSH POST going on for Mark Levin. This goon is either with us or against us and needs to man up.
It is truly pick-a-side time, by this point. Anything less seeks the end of tradition, common sense and justice in the United States.
Disturbed we are to see the regular promotion of Mark Levin’s marketing team-styled opening of these stinking posts at this anxious time. Reams of bandwidth have been devoted to opening every single thread cheerfully selling Levin’s program, while he, on the other hand, has made us out to be fools, here, when he picks, pecks and prosecutes TRUMP, he’s messing with TRUMP supporters. He’s talking to me.
We who complain about the daily thread posting (or whatever the frequency) of Levin and his irritating “intelligent me” and “stupid you” programming theme, running amok on FR, do not listen to him, and do not appreciate that he gets the daily run of the place for free, quotes and all.
It is reasonable to wonder if he’s even a contributor?
Of course, I do get your drift, but I don’ get Mark.
13.3 million voters cast ballots for Donald Trump, myself included. Mark Levin is certainly entitled to his opinion, but it is just that, one mans opinion, and I do not happen to agree with him.
There are a lot of talkers out there, and some of them make a pretty nice living off of their opinions. The doers have a lot more of my respect, like Judicial Watch. Talk only takes you so far.
