Conservative talk show how Rush Limbaugh said Thursday on his radio show that conservatives have lost the gay marriage debate and that it is now “inevitable.”
“This issue is lost,” he said. “I don’t care what the Supreme Court does. This is inevitable. And it’s inevitable because we lost the language on this.” Limbaugh added that conservatives lost the debate because they allowed the term “marriage” to be “bastardized.”
“As far as I’m concerned, once we started talking about gay marriage, traditional marriage, opposite-sex marriage, same-sex marriage, hetero marriage, we lost,” Limbaugh said. “It was over.”

Conservatives didn’t lose, society lost.
I don’t think we lost it here (not even sure it is lost, yet.)
We’re losing here the same way we are losing many other ways: the media and education.
Until we get strength back in these institutions, we’ll continue to lose.
Yep. Generations are being indoctrinated. They view us as dinosaurs. We have to discredit and trash the NEA and expose what is going on

You cannot win these. They must be destroyed.
Conservatives must get their children OUT of the government school collectives.
As long as conservatives buy into modern “public education”, the largest, most expensive, most destructive of all entitlement programs, they have bought the whole Leftist program.
I predict:
A tiny segment of the gay population will ever get “married.” The astronomical rates of promiscuity and disease among active homosexuals will not budge.
The “legal” status of same-sex “marriage” will be used by Democrat activists to persecute Christians in every manner they can devise—which is what this is all about, anyway.
“We have to discredit and trash the NEA”
Those people are so entrenched that anything short of rounding them all up and putting them against a wall is doomed to fail.
Gay marriage will be followed by gay divorce. The ones who benefit the most will be the divorce lawyers, because gays are incapable of fidelity.
Libertarianism introduced a language and a fig leaf for natural born liberals to corrupt conservative/republican conversation, and to blur and confuse the lines dividing conservatives from rinos.
The catch phrase on the road to the gates of hell and to the end of civilization is, “I’m libertarian on social issues, but conservative on economics”.
Get used to it folks, that is the new language of the Romney /Rockefeller wing of the GOP.
I don’t agree with Rush on this point.
Ditch the federal designation of marriage and the turd burglars won’t want it anymore.
RE: #5, agree 100%. There’s a reason Marx endorsed government indoctrination (I mean) education.
No, we view you and your generation as spineless quitters. Failed on abortion, failed on gay marriage.
It is normal in America to believe that your children can spend 12 years in a godless, communal (Communist) institution, and emerge believing in God and liberty.
We lost the fight a long time ago, as demonstrated by the fact that the GOPe is run by guys like Romney or Preibeus who think of Christians as inconveniences who make it harder for them to maintain power.
It’s time to dump these fools and continue to fight the good fight.
Good to see all the surrender ‘conservatives’ come out the woodwork.
As a nation, we’ve turn away from God. It’s time to stop sending missionaries to Africa and start sending to our local neighborhoods.
If you want to win back the culture, start building up the church.
If there is one thing I agree with him on is that language is the problem.
Liberals get away with changing it. They change their names from progressives to liberals back to progressives; they are currently changing Global Warming to Climate Change; they controlled the language with “Main Street vs Wall Street” when it was they that were the problem, they were the ones that created the housing mess.
