A hostile takeover of the right, one writer called it. http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/presidential-campaign/193999-mitt-romneys-hostile-takeover-of-the-right
Doubtless the GOP activist base will be asset-stripped before getting shipped to China.
Rush is a Romney fan? Wow, who knew? I listen to him regularly (Rush, that is, not Romney) and I didn’t know that!
Rush talked about Bain Capital owning Clear
Channel on his show Friday. So what?
Do you think Rush is in the tank for Mitt? Be honest, now.
I'm a member of the NRA...therefore.....the NRA runs my life.
0bama is the POTUS; I live in the U.S.
Therefore, I am a supporter of 0bama.
NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who says Mitt owns Bain? Maybe you should do a little homework before posting.
Obviously written by someone who hasn’t listened to Rush. He is far from a Mitt endorser. I’d say the opposite...he is encouraging what he refers to an anti-Establishment revolution, and he clearly believes Mitt is the “Establishment” choice.
Or it could be that the MSM is aware that Romney left Bain in 1998 and that this is a non-story.
The idea that Rush is kow-towing to Romney because of this is pretty laughable.
That headline blares a gross distortion of reality, and is a pathetic, convoluted attempt to ‘connect the dots.’ It feeds right into the ‘conservatives are paranoid’ meme.
ROVE!!!
Wonder if this explains why Bill Handel of KFI (Clear Channel station in L.A.) is a Romneybot.
Other than Huntsman and Paul, Rush has been toughest on Mitt. Some of you anti-Mitt people are nuttier than squirrel poop!
New York times is where I get all my facts?s
"Did you know that Clear Channel is owned (in large part) by Bain Capital? "
(in large part) I question facts that are in parentheses even if supported by the New York Times.
Rush is definitely on Romney’s side, but I don’t think this is the reason for it. We had a discussion on another thread...my opinion is a combination of “Rush is losing it and just wants to go hang out on the golf course with his latest trophy wife” and something suggested by another Freeper, which is that Rush loves the company of the rich and powerful and always boasts about how he is accepted among them now...because he feels that his own background was very inferior and he’s happy that they’ll admit him to the club.
Take your pick, but I’m not sure it really has to do with the owners of the channel. On the other hand...who knows? Maybe unconsciously it does, and the connection is worth noting.
So Newt wasn’t lying when he said Romney would buy the presidency if he could...connect the dots. The fix is in and we are doomed if Newt doesnt do well in SC
OHMYGOODNESS
Clear Channel owns ION network, which was going to broadcast the Donald Trump debate, which only Newt Gingrich seemed to commit to. Romney and all the others refused, iirc.
It was a plot to trap Newt! It's so clear now! We're through the looking glass here, people!
Or, you know, um... not.
