To make matters worse the last Rush show I listened to he said during Hillary's victory speech in New Hampshire that she was sexy. I believe Rush said that three times......
As a lifelong GOP supporter, I thought it would be a good idea to become a 24/7 Rush Limbaugh subscriber so I could listen to his daily shows at a later date. I thought this would allow me to get some real coverage on all of the GOP's candidates. I thought Rush would provide some fair reporting on all the GOP candidates that the major networks fail to do. Boy was I mistaken.
After listening to Rush for about week, my first impression of Rush was that he is an arrogant know it all. And very well paid I might add. I thought maybe I needed to give him more time before making that judgment against him.
As the weeks passed by I kept hearing Rush say that he will not pick a GOP candidate in the primaries. However, it became apparent that he is a Romney supporter. Every chance he gets he attacks McCain and Huckabee. Rush claims that McCain and Huckabee are not true conservatives.
From my listening experience thus far, The Limbaugh Show is nothing more than Rush reporting disinformation. After a recent GOP debate, Rush went on the attack against McCain on the immigration issue. Rush claimed McCain got hammered on the issue and implied that McCain was for amnesty. Talking about disinformation, Rush was reporting a complete lie to all his listeners. I hope all Rush's listeners saw the same debate. McCain said that his first action as President would be to close all the borders with Mexico. The true McCain policy is first to stop the flow of illegal immigrants and then address the illegal immigrants in the U.S. now in a humane way. That seems like a logical plan to take.
Then there is Romney who at the same debate said when he is President he will throw out all of the illegal immigrants without first addressing the immediate problem of stopping the flow from Mexico. On this day Rush was the foot soldier for Romney. It was this day that I lost my trust in anything that comes out of Rush's mouth.
The real reason that Rush finds it easy to attack McCain and Huckabee is because the two men have not kissed up to Rush. Both campaigns have already said things that have upset the big guy's ego.
To make matters worse the last Rush show I listened to he said during Hillary's victory speech in New Hampshire that she was sexy. I believe Rush said that three times.
To the author Paul:
Rush doesn’t give a hoot if you like him or if you listen to him. If you look at his numbers he doesn’t need nor want you. He is the most successful talk radio host ever. He speaks the truth and sets the facts out there whether you like them or not. He has taught many people more about politics than they could have ever learned in any classroom. He is without a doubt the very best.
Now, I have been listening to Rush since he began and...watched his TV show as well. Rush is brilliant and a pure genius. He says things that quite obviously go beyond what you can understand because you don’t listen to him enough therefore you don’t understand what he says. We as his daily listeners get it and we understand it. As my tagline says...Rush has done more for this country than any of us will ever fully realize. Like it or not...he has.
I don’t see how he can. They are just light versions of the Dems (RINOS). I can’t see him supporting RINOs. I think I’d see him lamenting about a particular conservative candidate coming back into the race before shilling for Huckster and McPain.
I don’t think he has made it clear who he likes. He has pretty much talked about all of them except Hunter. So just maybe he’s for Hunter. We will probably never know.
We listen to facts...we make up our own minds. Who do you listen to to get your facts???
He’s banking on Rush talking about this article and exposing his name to 20 million people. That’s all this is about.
Bill Clinton started jogging near his new home in Chappaqua. But on each run he happened to jog past a hooker standing on the same street corner, day after day. With some apprehension he would brace himself as he approached her for what was most certainly to follow. "Fifty dollars!" she would cry out from the curb. "No, Five dollars!" fired back Clinton . This ritual between Bill and the hooker continued for days. He'd run by and she'd yell, "Fifty dollars!" And he'd yell back, "Five dollars!" One day however, Hillary decided that she wanted to accompany her husband on his jog! As the jogging couple neared the problematic street corner, Bill realized the "pro" would bark her $50 offer and Hillary would wonder what he'd really been doing on all his past outings. He realized he should have a darn good explanation for the junior Senator. As they jogged into the turn that would take them past the corner, Bill became even more apprehensive than usual. Sure enough, there was the hooker! Bill tried to avoid the prostitute's eyes as she watched the pair jog past. Then, from the sidewalk, the hooker yelled...
"See what you get for five bucks!?"
You have issues.
Of course Hillary is sexy. It all depends on one’s definition of the verb “is.”
You listen to Limbaugh's spin.
..we make up our own minds.
Oddly enough, mirroring Limbaugh's opinions.
Who do you listen to to get your facts???
No single source, and I certainly do not blindly accept anyone's opinion as fact, as do Limbaugh worshippers.
I usually catch the third hour of his show every day, but I do not consider him to be anything other than an entertainer.
Rush is having withdrawls from oxicotin.
Oh my god that is so funny!
What do you do the first two hours, listen to Jim Hightower...
We listen to facts as presented by Rush Limbaugh.
How do you know “oddly enough” we mirror his opnions??? You don’t know me. You don’t know all of Rush Limbaugh’s listeners.
Who says we “blindly” accept his opinion as fact? You keep telling me/us what you think we do as Rush Limbaugh listeners. You have no idea.
Why do you even bother to catch the third hour of his show or any hour of his show for that matter if you think his listeners are all “blindly” accepting his opinion as fact????
I BELIEVE it was hillllereee that said years and years (right after she cackled that obnoxious laugh of hers) that Rush was “entertaining.” That made me laugh. Everyone that dislikes him or does not agree with him uses that same old tired line about him being “entertaining.” He’s entertaining allright...he’s done a LOT of “entertaining” and it has certainly helped this country more than a lot of the politicians who are NOT entertaining...just clowns.
Rush is the man. He is a patriot and a true American. you don’t have to like him. That is your privilege. I DO like him. He makes people think about what is out there instead of grabbing the tail of the elephant in front of them.
One day you will come to realize just how much we were blessed to have Rush walk among us. Have a nice day.
Well there are now three things I disagree with Rush about.
No, we can't do that. There wouldn't be ANY eligible Democrat voters and many less Republicans if we did.
Sounds like worship to me.
Why do you figure his opinions are so much better than your own?
Grow a little self esteem.
Sexy, like an eight-page bible
