Don't worry Rush, it wasn't your fault about Rubio. He blamed himself, not his supporters. As far as Ted Cruz, I'll be tuning in for at least the first half hour to hear your cutting edge appraisal of Trumps historic numbers.
Do you listen as well as you read?
HamiltonJay writes . . . "Haven't listened to him in years but the some stuff that he's saying this election cycle."
Say what? Uh?
Thinkin HamiltonJay and others need to take their meds. Haters hate I suppose.
He has definitely been pimping Rubio lately. Not surprisingly it started right after Iowa. When so many other so-called conservative media members and establishment elite politicians started jumping on the pimp Marcobot bandwagon. When the MSM totally ignored Cruz and made Marco the center of all news, I wondered who else would come out of the woodwork shilling for him. In other words, who else was under establishment control. Right on cue, Rush Limbaugh started pimping Marco.
If it had been just about Rubio’s repeat of the line, I wouldn’t have thought anything about it. But it wasn’t just that. Rush didn’t stop there. He told us how new to the senate naive Marco made a mistake when he joined the gang of 8. But living in Florida, Rush knows better than that. Marco didn’t just make a mistake. Rush knows that Marco was pro-amnesty before he even ran for the senate because of his behavior as FL speaker of the house. I’m sure he knows all about the report the Eagle Forum put together detailing Rubio’s utter contempt for the promises he made the TEA party in Florida who helped elect him.
Rubio wasn’t just a member of the gang of 8. He was their designated point man chosen specifically to do what McCain, Grahamnesty, and Flake could not do. Rubio could use the good will he built up with conservatives to force amnesty down their throats. Which he did without a second thought, over and over, for both Schmucky Schumer and Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook. Day after day in commercials and interviews on conservative media we heard how real conservatives love bringing illegals into our country.
The conservatives in Florida were very upset that Marco had broken his promise to us and was selling the entire country down the river. To this day, Rubio, our native son and sitting junior senator, is barely able to get 20 percent of the vote in his home state. He’s not running for re-election to the senate merely because he’s bored in there. He probably would not even win his seat back. The gang of 8 plan to let Marco be point man convincing conservatives to accept amnesty (which would never be called amnesty) would have worked too if God had not allowed the brave citizens of Virginia to throw Eric Cantor out of office.
Rush Limbaugh knows how Marco used the conservative media to tell lies and manipulate people, yet he says give him another chance. Marco just made a mistake. So why is he doing this? Either he is an idiot, lying and/or something way worse. I don’t believe Rush is an idiot. He is lying and he is probably something way worse. I don’t believe it’s for the money. That’s Marco’s lure. Rush has plenty. Whatever it is, he has sold out his audience because of it.
What? Is that line a macro on your keyboard? Second time I have read that tonight. Almost 4 years ago. Let it go. Its OK. Deep breath now. Let it out. Good
Very well said!
Obviously Rush could NOT hear jack-in-the-box Rubio. Rubio sounded more like he was trying to convince himself that Obama knows exactly what he is doing..... I would have a dot of respect if Rubio had apologized for running head first into obama's bed trying to give him is 'dream act'.
Rubio’s 8x repeat of the line that obama knows exactly what he is doing, and has therefore been successful at tearing the country to shreds == is a line Rush has been using since year one of this administration. I believe he was merely saying this week to cut Rubio slack at least on that (correct) point.
JFKerry thinks he is really doing good and important works, when he talks too. What has changed by Rush saying repeatedly, Obama knows exactly what he is doing,....? Geeze, A Republican controlled Congress cannot write Obama's checks fast enough... could it be that there is complicity to destroy US?
Rush gives Cruz huge plaudits today for being as tough as they come, certainly not a pussy. And he gave Trump credit for being smooth enough to downplay the pussy comment in the rally, to scold it, and to tsk tsk it, and then, when the crowd demanded it, to say, oh,OK, she called him a pussy, which is bad, really, really bad.
Yeah, I saw a real tough guy, when asked about 'waterboarding'.. hooking up with lord McCain is a sure sign of strength.
Hes been very evenhanded, and sorry that he has disappointed so many who either think he’s a homer for one or the other, or that they wish he’d endorse their guy.
The crisis this country faces continue to mount regardless of what Rush says or does not say.
And, for goodness sake, if you don’t even bother to listen, it’s ill-informed to criticize what he says, or the tone of his commentary.
I just read, which is all Rush can do these days, what you say Rush said...
I’m diggin Rush these days, as I have for 27 years.
But your screen name still says 'Migraine'!
Call it a note to myself... do not be deceived... people will do and say almost anything to make a buck.
He will be on his game, 100% correct as always and I salute him. Watch the lunatic fringe here come unglued lol.
Now that Trump won he is being blown off yet again because “It was expected”
The way the chattering class on FOX Business was holding a death watch for positions 2-3-4-5-6-7 in the NH race was amusing to watch. Do they not know what fools we think they are?
Some millionaire was on and Cavuto was pressing him to say who he supported and when he started to talk about how he admired Trump, Cavuto cut him off
There are no heroes anymore in the so-called formerly known as conservative media! NONE
Kasich Kasich Kasich yada yada yada
Exactly!
Not sure what specifically that is referring to. If its regarding Rush,saying anything to make a buck . . . hell yes, Rush has been talking for 25 years plus trying to make a buck. And the funny thing is, he tells his audience that on a regular basis
Now you may or may not understand what he is saying. You may or may not understand the CONTEXT of what he is saying. You may or may not agree with what he is saying. Those are separate issues. But deceptive and trying to deceive folks . . . you're wrong! Show me any other media person who puts in writing their daily program to be read and scutinized. I am going to stop there. People like you don't write the things you do to have their thoughts challenged or consider a change of mind. Its a waste of time
That a Frumpster can even refer to others as narcissist and sycophant is evidence of a mental disorder.
“If someone dug up an old recording of Ronald Reagan saying something remotely negative about Trump, Reagan would suddenly be a Pariah here on FreeRepublic.
I’m not sure that the 11th commandment would apply to The Donald’s alleged Republicanism.”
Like Cruz supporters don’t trash pet that endorse Trump! Palin, anyone? You point out your own hypocrisy with your snarky 2nd sentence.
Cruz supporters do one further by leaving this site because the owner will vote for Trump if nominated, but prefers Cruz. They couldn’t handle that so created their own site where they can bash Trump 24/7 and call him the anti-Christ. And insult everyone who would vote for him, including the owner here, being quite vicious about it.
Trump’s policies are the most conservative out there. Cruz has copied them!
Wasn’t this the fat kitty thread?
Rush still going after Trump and pushing Rubio. Crazy!
I think Cruz has always been his guy. After hearing Rush for years he won’t tell you who he chooses. He will misdirect his audience and eventually the audience will come around to Cruz. I can sense the breadcrumbs.
It certainly sounded like he received a phone call “with an offer he couldn’t refuse” at some point in the past few weeks.
See #97. Limbaugh said today that “Cruz is the closest we’ve gotten to Ronald Reagan in our lifetimes”.
How’s that for a breadcrumb?
If only Cruz had half of Reagan’s appeal to the public at large.
