Rush sounded almost depressed through his show today, taking call after call from Trumpers accusing him of being too pro-Cruz or Cruzers accusing him of being too pro-Trump. The guy can’t win for losing lately.

You hit the nail squarely. What strikes me as odd is allll of a sudden supposed conservatives now take issue over a man that makes money!! I mean seriously, some in here are sounding EXACTLY like DU trolls. Oooo that evil evil man who takes in the millions. I’m expecting to hear next they want their fair share.

No two have brought more respect and notice to the conservative movement than Rush and Levin. There are many I hear harping as pointless shills stating they do nothing....blah blah no action. Most have closed their ears or have never listened to a single program because if they had theyd know they bring awareness to what is going on in Government and by publicizing it has probably brought more action out of the masses in recent history than no other. In fact they make an observation and then a solution. From that not a single GOPe shill follows said solution. Thousands then flood the lines to place pressure on said Congresscritter.

These folks are bitter because if they aren’t stumping for “my guy” 24/7 he must be a RINO, he must be GOPe, he is a liberal etc etc. These are folks that live in the here and now with no real sense of strategy towards a long game. It’s all about instant gratification in today’s culture. Levin and Rush have been espousing across the airwaves conservative virtues for decades now. Reagan brought to light what conservatism is. Rush and Levin have made conservatism cool and honestly are probably the main champions to ensure it doesn’t die.

Without these two Conservatism would have been long dead

You get it. His audience will swell if there is a brokered convention.

The real story is the reactions to the incident and not the incident itself. There’s very little chance any assault charge will stick.

Exactly. He’s a businessman, and, unlike Beck, he doesn’t claim to be God’s spokesman.

Levin today was the disappointment?

Yes I'm disappointed of this guy, too, who calls himself the great one. I thought Rush was promoting lyin' Fidelito Cruz so I unsubscribed Rush, too. So Rush says he has no comment.

After turning his program into a daily three hour commercial for Ted Cruz, Rush claims that people are angry with him for being decent to Trump?

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.......

We know the other topics are Cruz’s issues like the sex scandal or his eligibility and so on.

Limbaugh all but said that the Lewandowski story was a big bunch of nothing and those pretending it is a huge deal are phonies...

Perhaps because the Lewandowski story is a big bunch of nothing and those pretending it is a huge deal are phonies.

P.S., I am a Cruz supporter.

We are so alone, my fellow Patriots of this sovereign nation of the United States of America. It’s us against the Globalists. We’ve got Trump, and us, but no one else...Arrayed against the entire media, crony capitalists, elite 1%-ers, professional career politicians...We better start praying.


That is the truth. Your whole post was excellent. Sad, though.

It’s a new Movie coming out about a Texas Gringo who Hunts and Kills Illegal Hispanic Border Crossers.

I imagine it will treated as a Documentary or will have the disclaimer “based on true events” flashed on the Screen when it comes out.

Pure Propaganda. Can’t wait for next Years Oscars.

A caller to Rush gave an excellent metaphor on the “assault”. Did anybody here listen to it?

What is this? Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil? Rush is hiding.

I sent Rush an email yesterday, and although I've been with him since August of 1988, I'm done with him {at least as long as I can stay off of drugs}. His whiny, ohhh, poor me, everybody blames me, so I won't give you my opinion. His whole show is opinion, WTF?

No more Rush 24/7, no more Rush Newsletter, and if I give to the cancer charity, it will be direct not through his fund raiser. Sniveling, whiny, pussy boy, I can't believe how this new wife has changed him into a shell of the old Rush.

You’re right. He’s under stress. If what kind, I don’t know. I’ve heard rumors that Kathryn is ill, and is looking very bad. That might explain it. The “I like Marco” and “I like Lundsey” is grating, however. I just flip off the radio.

Get off the Cheap Labor Express and visit Realville every now and then.

I believe Rush lives his audience, but he lives the prestige if his “friends” in the elite as well. He’s going to lose one or the other. And if he loses the trust of his audience, the elites will have no further use for him, and he’ll lose both. Faustian, no? Human nature being what it is, u think he’ll choose the elites over us.

Come to think of it---have you ever heard Rush talk about how anti-American TPP is, and how Cruz voted for TPA, which will give us TPP and more? Have you ever heard Rush talk about securing the border and how the immigration of Mexicans is killing this nation? Or that we should keep Muslims out who cannot be vetted TO A "T"? Or that we should not take in ANY of the rapefugees? Or that Europe is destroying its culture and taking down the West with it?

IMO Rush is not a true Patriot or a Nationalist. He is classic stateless Libertarian through and through. IMO Libertarians are crazy in a lot of ways but the Libertarian philosophy overlaps conservatism in may cases so they are hard to detect.
