Rush: If Conservatism Is Your Only Priority, There Is No Choice Other Than Ted Cruz
The Rush Limbaugh Show ^ | 2/10/16 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 02/10/2016 2:17:21 PM PST by TBBT

If conservatism is your bag, if conservatism is the dominating factor in how you vote, there is no other choice for you in this campaign than Ted Cruz, because you are exactly right: This is the closest in our lifetimes we have ever been to Ronald Reagan.

***snip***

But for those of you that conservatism's the answer and conservatism is the way, you have no choice here. Ted Cruz has got to be your guy. There's nobody even close. Nobody.

That p&$$y trump dodged the draft many times. Trump’s 4 bankruptcies stole from his investors and he never paid them back!

I listen to Rush as an analyst, someone who discusses the hot topics of the day.

I don’t hear “endorsements” I hear objective commentary both pro and negative on all candidates.

It’s a shame so many here are so tainted by looking for angles (knee jerking) instead of just listening and actually hearing and contemplating what is being said. It is after all, just one mans opinion

Objectivity has indeed gone out the window.

“Not very “conservative” to fund your Senate campaign using margin loans.”

Why not? When Trump “self-finances”, you people praise him for it. When Cruz does it, you condemn him for it.

Cruz cannot be trusted considering:

- His support of Obamatollah’s TPA
- Corker’s Iranian Nukes + $150 BILLION to help spread terrorism
- Amnesty via “Pathway to Citizenship”
- His dubious dishonesty of GoldmanSachs & CitiBank “loans”
- Nixonian dirty tricks in Iowa

...and his weak, p***y “innerness” to stand up to evil (i.e. afraid to state water boarding or worse should be used on the evil of islam)

Then there’s that Canadian anchor baby thing...

“Here, I’ll get all the Trump posts down to save them the trouble.”

Let’s get the Cruz ones.

I’m a perfect conservative. Cruz is perfect conservative. We are endorsed by Jesus. You are all bad people and stupid. Did I mention Cruz is perfect, and you are stupid?

I guess my problem this cycle is that it’s not my only priority. Defeating the GOPe(elected and un-elected pundits), Doner Class, RAT’s, and Media elites is a very high priority for me this year. That trumps (no pun intended) conservative thoroughbred (which Cruz is) for me. Love Cruz, but I don’t think he can win the General. Would love to be proven wrong and will happily vote for him if he’s the nominee. I’m leaning toward joining the middlefinger to all the aforementioned vote on SEC Tue at this point.

The federal governments constitutionally limited powers are my priority.

Somebody please send me a message the first time that Rush mentions Congresss constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.

It’s not a complete picture that Rush throws out there.

It must be the most conservative who can also win.

The primary season will tell us which one can win. They both must stay in until the end.

If someone can’t win the republican primary, then they can’t win the election. That’s not a failsafe view, but it makes more sense than some flash poll or someone’s opinion.

I’ll take Cruz or Trump before ANY of the rest.

As long as we slay the beast I don’t give a sh!t at this point who wins.

If you went to Princeton and Harvard Law, worked in corporate law, politics, and government, and have ties to investment banking, like Ted Cruz (or if you spent years in Washington think-tanks or journalism, like Rich Lowry), it's best to not to try to play the anti-elitist card.

But Trump, who went to expensive private schools, went to Wharton, got his start with a few million from his dad, has ties to big business, big banking, national political figures from both parties, media connections, is worth a few billion, does business with Soros and Buffet, etc - HE can play the "anti-elitist" card?

-— Just a shame he’s not constitutionally eligible -—

You need to tell Trump that because Trump says he’s considering Cruz for VP.

Why would you do that??

I understand that religion is the one which currently has a large number of folks which are radical, but why would you do something so insane?

Wouldn’t it be more effective to target oh.. maybe countries specifically which are supporting Isis/the enemy?

Rush is no better than mainstream media, trying to control his listener’s vote.

Unlike you who is trying to control the Freeper vote?

When Rush puts up $1 million of his own money to help veterans

That's a really cheap shot, when are you putting up your million?

How do you know he hasn't?

Most people who give don't go around blabbing about it unless they're democrats.

Really, really cheap shot, ended by a nice dose of envy at the end of your post.

A vote for Trump is no different than a vote for Sanders/Clinton.
