Nope. By that logic, Chris Matthews and Rachel Maddow have to listen to you and would never attack or say anything bad about you. Just like Rush does to Romney... Oh, wait...
All I know to be true to myself is after 2 days of Rush going overboard about Newt, he hurt Newt. That is one thing I will never forget. Newt is not anti business. Rush helps Mitt every chance he can. Rush and Paul have been Mitt’s greatest assets.
Rush doesn’t need Clear Channel. Clear Channel needs him.
I really wish more Freepers understood some of the basics of business. Some of the horse manure I’ve read here lately has bummed me out.
Mr. Mustard did it in the library with a candlestick.
We'll have to see who Rush will be pimping for come August. I recall distinctly his change of heart on Bush after being an overnight guest at the WH. But that was when he only made enough each year to buy his own jet; now he could buy the Air Force. </sarc>
On a related note, I wonder who will complete this foursome?
Never has a flame been so decisive or so deserved that I can recall. What you posted was
A: from a left wing site
B: partly wrong in fact
C: connected dots that don’t connect
D: was tin foil looney
E: steeped in total ignorance of the talk radio industry
F: steeped in ignorance of the totality of Rush has said about Romney (which is mostly negative by a long shot)
G: etc etc etc.
Nah ... as a So Californian who has been afflicted with Handel for many years (I now switch to San Diego's KOGO in the mornings to avoid him), I think I can safely say that the real explanation as to why Handel is a Romneybot is that Handel is an IDIOT.
He was an idiot long before Romney was in the picture, and no doubt will be an idiot long after, God willing, Romney loses the Republican primary. :^)
Amen bros, I feel your pain. Totally....
Rush is having the same problem with ad sales as Glenn did. Ad space dominated by Gold dealers and ID Security insurance. He had to resort to selling tea. I really believe he just goes to FrreRepublic and Drudge and just comments on what he sees. If you don’t think he cares what Clear Channel thinks you are nuts. I remember when he had GM and other real businesses advertising with him. He likes playing lead dog but is afraid to take a clear stand.
Sorry, not true, and I think you know better.
Rush has been tougher on Romney since the beginning of the process than anyone else except Paul. He has been tougher on Paul over all. He is only tough on Newt when he thinks Newt veers left, and thats what he thinks on this thing. But he is most definitley NOT in the tank for Mitt and to say otherwise is simply showing a lack of understanding or an out and out falsehood.
Thank you for your reasoned response. Rush actually defended Bain, more than Romney. Rush was so concerned about defending Bain, that he harmed Gingrich in the process, perhaps fatally. Even if the Gringrich’s attacks were not entirely fair, why is that suddenly more important than electing the most conservate candidate?
Bain took Clear Channel private in 2008 so they probably have enough of the stock for controlling leverage.
It’s my understanding Romney left Bain in 1999? Correct?
Nonsense. Rush does what Rush wants to do.
Because unlike some folks, Rush is more about ideas than being obsessed with people, including candidates. Always has been. Always will be. I realize that a lot of folks on message boards have no ideas and only come with a positive or negative obsession about a certain candidate. That's not Rush' world. Never ever has been.
Yes, but he controls it remote control through a jedi mind trick - and wants to rule the universe this way. Don’t you know anything?????
/s (in case this was needed...)
Uh Oh! The paranoids are going to be out in full force. Maybe this will distract them from forming the circular firing squad that seems to be forming on this site.
