On Monday, will Rush side with the Chicago protesters against Trump?
William III | March 12, 2016 | William III

REPORTEDLY, Rush has been siding with Cruz more and more in recent days. Will that continue on Monday, when he has to talk about the Chicago unrest and Cruz blaming Trump for the mob that shut down Trump's rally?

Somebody, please listen and tell me, because I stopped listening to Rush years ago. I got the telegram saying that he was a GOPe mouthpiece long before others did.

I think the crapstorm over his accurate description of Sandra Fluck [sic] really rattled him.

I agree. But why should it "rattle" him if it was an accurate description (and I believe it was)?

It "rattled" him because it revealed Rush is NOT his own man. It "rattled " him because it "rattled" whoever is behind Rush pulling the strings.

. This would also explain Rush's shocking support of the, "full-throated conservative" Marco Rubio, who is, "in the mold of Ronald Reagan."

Quite obviously Rush Limbaugh is (and always has been) a snake-oil salesman who suckered us all.

“Rush is NOT his own man”...”whoever is behind Rush pulling the strings”

What he is is a human being who has engaged in near-daily public political battle for over thirty years...and has done so as a business, for a profit.

Human beings get older, they lose a little keenness, they also lose a bit of confidence and nerve. Did Rush lose some of his edge after his hearing loss, after his heart attack, after the Sandra FLUCK (I know how it is spelled, thanks) episode? Yes, I think he did.

Was part of it because he feared losing too many sponsors? Yes, I think it probably was. Did it cause people like me to turn to him a little less eagerly? Sure.

But this jibbering about ownership and string-pulling is nonsense. People who talk that way are usually at the end of one or many strings themselves: the one pulled by their crappy bosses at their crappy jobs, the one their wives pull as if pulling their ears, the one from the mortgage company, the one from the power company, tax man, paper boy, on and on.

I'll only waste my time responding to the italicized excerpt above.

Do you even understand the use of [sic]? It is used, in this case, to inform the reader that what was "copied and pasted" was EXACTLY how the original author wrote it. The reader understands that I have not changed your comment as to further strengthen my responding comment. And, by the way, if you knew how Sandra Fluke spelled her last name, why didn't you spell it correctly to begin with?

The rest of your response is mindless gibberish.

Guess I pulled your string and rang your bell, poor fellow.

My thought is that if people don’t like Rush they should turn him off and shut up about him, ‘cause if they don’t listen they are full of crap anyway.

And if they are envious of him because of their own pissy little lives, that is just another problem they are going to have to try to work through on their own.

I think I have at least a rough grasp of “the use of [sic]?”, ol’ Jack. Amusing though to see you plod your way through the full explication. Get some book-learning along the way, did you? I can tell you’re proud. Way to go!

The rest of your post, like the one preceding it, is nothing but more loser’s bull-—t...but what the heck, we all contribute what we can.

Oh...why did I misspell your girlfriend’s name, Jack? Because I figured it would annoy all the bilious little fussbudgets out there, and that kind of thing makes me laugh.

Haha!

For people like yourself who suffer from recto-cranial inversion, I always defer to Mark Twain's sage advice:

Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. ...

Well, if you are a guy like you, and you’re a kind of thwarted old sourpuss (but I repeat myself), I would say it is probably best than you refrain from actual argument, and stick to slurring people behind their backs.

Hang in there, ol’ Jack.

“Are you admitting that Cruz is a fool?”

No. Are you?

On second thought, and we’re caucusing it right now. Even
though I voted for Ted, this blaming Trump for the liberal
violence at his rally is rather foolish. Ted may be out of
line here.

Rush will take whatever side bring in the most money for him. His principles have gone out the window.

Since Rush, Cruz, Rubio, Kasick, Fox News, CNN etc all had the exact same talking points I’d say all of the above are on the same team and coordinated with one another on this attack on Trump. The above (along with Beck, Levin) are the prime media players in the stop Trump movement.

His (Rush's) principles have gone out the window.

It is my impression that with Rush's revelations of his GOPe roots, that his principles have NOT gone out the window.

They were never there to begin with!

I will answer your question.

I think Rush will double down Monday on his Friday loonfest.

His job will be to make you think you didn’t hear what you thought you heard since his show on Friday. He will tell what you didn’t understand because he is the all seeing all knowing and you are not. LOL

Rush joined in to do his part of the Sea Island secret non secret meeting. He probably wasn’t there, but the memo went out to the troops in the field.

Either that, or he will have a bad cold and sore throat.

Totally agree. There was a collusion between the the GOPe and the left who didn’t mind at all that Trump be blamed for their foul activities.

I’ve never watched or listened to one of Rush’s shows.

but he just doesn’t sound all that conservative to me sometimes.

definitely NOT liberal, but kind of moderate.

You've never watched (?) nor listened to ONE of Rush's shows. Not one. Yet you say "he just doesn't sound all that conservative to me sometimes" and that he's "definitely NOT liberal, but kind of moderate".

So... if you've NEVER listened to any of Rush's radio shows... HOW do know how he sounds?? Also, HOW do you know that he's "definitely not liberal, but kind of moderate"??

>:-O
