Levinm Rush and Hannity have a LOT of blame as they could have done much to hamstring this crap. Instead they kept praising Rubio and the bill kept advancing one step at a time. That’s the simple fact.
They hold MUCH blame in this. I don’t care what good they have done. It does not excuse this. And if they would like to discuss it on air, I’ll be glad to oblige.
I agree with this. I believe Rubio would have crashed and burned on this issue a long time ago if he hadn't been coddled and propped up by these three and given free air time to push this crap every time he asked for it. At least Rush didn't put him on the air the last time he called up just before the program to "explain himself" once again.
I think you’re lying here. I happen to listen regularly to Rush and Levin (clearly, you do not), and they are both absolutely and completely against this immigration bill. They have both said repeatedly that it would mean the end of America as we know it. They couldn’t be more firm about it - - not waffling whatsoever.
I don’t listen to Hannity, so I don’t know where he stands.
However, I think his loyal friendship causes some problems in that at some point, when that snake he befriended started biting, he needed to do more than just dress the wound.
He verbally beat Paul Ryan like a rented mule. And really trashed Greg Gutfeld for daring to say that his friend Eric Bolling on The Five was being hypocritical about the NSA spying.
But Rubio is a sacred cow. He has even said that people want him to trash Rubio but he won't do it. I think the frustration is the very same as when people were pleading with McCain to go after Obama and he wouldn't. For crying out loud just admit that Rubio is a liar. That would be enough for me. "Like, gosh he says he didn't take my car, but I saw him in it, have a traffic light camera ticket with him driving it, security footage of him getting out and back in...but I just can't admit that he lied to me."
It's very disheartening when those that have a voice won't say what needs to be said (specific to Rubio, I acknowledge the tremendous things he says and the work he does every day). Rubio is a Trojan Horse in the conservative movement and Mark can't bring himself to admit that he got hustled.
Agreed. And in fact, Mark was actually cutting off callers a couple of weeks ago who were taking him to task about Rubio.
