Rush Limbaugh slammed the Republican Party after once again rubber-stamping a spending bill that once again gave Barack Obama everything he wished for.
Rush went so far as to suggest it is time to disband the Republican Party.
We are all with you on that, Rush Limbaugh. Via the Rush Limbaugh Show:
Rush Limbaugh: The country was just sold down the river again by your very Republican Party.
I have a headline here from the Washington Times: "White House Declares Total Victory Over GOP in Budget Battle." That headline's a misnomer. There was never a battle. None of this was opposed. The Republican Party didn't stand up to any of it, and the die has been cast for a long time on this. I know many of you are dispirited, depressed, angry, combination of all of that. But, folks, there was no other way this could go. Because two years ago when the Republican Party declared they would never do anything that would shut down the government and they would not impeach Obama, there were no obstacles in Obama's way and there were no obstacles in the way of the Democrat Party ...
... It fully funds Planned Parenthood. That, to me, is unforgivable, with everything now known about what goes on behind closed doors at Planned Parenthood, and that the federal government, led by a Republican Party, sees fit to pay for it. It is beyond comprehension, and it is a total squandering of moral authority to fully fund the butchery at Planned Parenthood. This spending bill fully pays for Obama's refugee plans, fully. This spending bill, this budget bill quadruples the number of visas Obama wants for foreign workers. This is even a slap at American union workers. Not the leaders. The union leaders seem to be in favor of it, but blue-collar people, known as working people, have been sold down the river along with everybody else here.
This spending bill even fully pays for every dime asked for by Obama on all of this idiocy that's tied up into climate change. Everything Obama wanted, everything he asked for, he got. You go down the list of things, it's there.
And this is causing some people to wonder if they just dreamed all that stuff about Boehner resigning. And then other people are wondering if they even dreamed all that stuff about the Republicans winning the largest number of seats they've had in Congress since the Civil War. We had two midterm elections in 2010 and 2014, which were landslide victories for the Republican Party. The Democrat Party lost over a thousand seats nationwide in just those two elections. People went to the polls in droves wanting exactly what was rubber-stamped last night (or what will be) stopped.
And instead they showed up in record numbers and they it turned out and they just defeated Democrats down the ballot. In the process, they elected Republicans to stop this. And now the Republicans have the largest number of seats in the House they've had in Congress since the Civil War. And it hasn't made any difference at all. It is as though Nancy Pelosi is still running the House and Harry Reid is still running the Senate. "Betrayed" is not even the word here. What has happened here is worse than betrayal. Betrayal is pretty bad, but it's worse than that.
This was out-and-out, in-our-face lying, from the campaigns to individual statements made about the philosophical approach Republicans had to all this spending.
There is no Republican Party! You know, we don't even need a Republican Party if they're gonna do this. You know, just elect Democrats, disband the Republican Party, and let the Democrats run it, because that's what's happening anyway. And these same Republican leaders doing this can't, for the life of them, figure out why Donald Trump has all the support that he has? They really can't figure this out?
Repeated stabs in the back like this - which have been going on for years - combined with Obama's policy destruction of this country, is what has given rise to Donald Trump. If Donald Trump didn't exist and if the Republican Party actually does want to win someday, they'd have to invent him. It's just mind-boggling when you figure out everything that has been granted Obama. All the money, the tax increases, the Cadillac plans in Obamacare. All kinds of punitive things in Obamacare, delayed yet again so that people will not be made aware of the pain and suffering Obamacare’s gonna cause.
Yup you guys where the lone voices in the wilderness and I am greatful and I am prepared to do whatever it takes to restore our Republic in order to that we must elect politicians who take their fundamental oaths of office seriously and they must believe our Constitutional and Unalienable rights comes from the full sovereignty of God if they can’t understand that then they don’t deserve to elected and the American people must also understand these principles as well.
FU
That’s really only Ole Miss, college town, Oxford. I live on the Coast, home of Beauvoir (Jefferson Davis’ last home), where a huge Confederate flag flies right next to Hwy 90, and Vicksburg still keeps up its National Park with monuments Confederates (and some Union) soldiers, memorabilia, etc. We also have the Confederate flag incorporated into our state flag, by majority vote (under ‘rat governor, Ronnie Musgrove, no less), in 2001 (I know state capitol Jackson, majority black now due to white flight, must just love flying that flag, lol). When I drive up 49, many little roadside stands and markets selling Confederate memorabilia and flags. So all is not disaster yet, though I know we won’t escape the agitators before it’s over.
I rarely catch Rush but I was bebopping down the road in the car today when I heard these words and nearly drove right off the road. He called out the Republican party directly. I was stunned. Glad to hear it, but stunned.
You’re being much too humble. I have faith that you get exactly the reaction that you are looking for.
I understand.
{”You guys are not ALL IN, and probably never will be”}
It was 400 years before the Europeans got The Crusades going and pushed back The Muslims. I imagine a lot of talking, and sabre rattling preceded the actual event.
The thought, which fosters talk, is indeed the father to the deed.
Yes, people are getting very angry and thoughts unimaginable just a few short years ago have entered the heads of sane, peaceful people. And if there is not a shift, there will be a time for action. No one would be anxious or irrational in undertaking such a desperate solution. You seem a bit over amped yourself.
P.S. Your assumption that we are all ‘guys’ may be inaccurate.

Soon as I'm finished not giving a rat's butt about what you're posting. Non Rattus Anus Rodentum.
Alright.....I need one of those T-shirts.
Yes, doing so certainly sounds reasonable to me.
As the old saying goes, the perfect should not be made the enemy of the good.
And Mitt Romney was certainly good, I believe, as compared with Barack Obama.
Congratulations! There are plenty of alternatives out there. Basically, you’re an independent, until the new party gets it together.
The business interests worked their way up through the Republican Party after the Whigs ended. Another freeper pointed this out months ago.
The love of money is the root of all evil as somebody or other said.
You are smoking some good stuff if you think Cruz can fix this.
Single Party Rule by Democrats
what an idea
How does anyone think that will work out.
The USA is crying out for a Conservative Party if someone would just start it. Hey Rush — how about making it your life’s work to create a genuine powerhouse Conservative Party and put your money where your mouth is to support it? You can’t take it with you when you die.
Not a chance. The mouth is all talk and no action. The good he could do if he would use his bully pulpit and money and connections to create a Conservative Party.
EEK, what am I saying? The commies and UN have set the state for the destruction of America, capitalism, prosperity and freedom. There is nothing Rush Limbaugh or anyone else can do to stop this American decline and fall. I take it back. At this point a strong Conservative Party would just give us a false hope that we can stop the American decline and fall. In truth, nothing can stop it.
Enjoy your golfing Rush. Nothing you can do will matter anyway so just hang on and enjoy the ride.
