Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a great constitutional conservative and great friend of Free Republic. Doesn't post much anymore but has had an account here (holdonnow) from nearly the beginning. He stood up for FR when his good friend Hannity was running us down. Also when O'Reilly accused us of not moderating our forum good enough against racism.
I hate to see our good friend getting trashed on FR. I understand why people are upset with him over his position against Trump, but best advice I can give is if you can't stand him, don't listen. I had to quit listening to Beck several years ago after he went nuts, and now rarely tune in Limbaugh. I click on the Mark Levin Show, maybe once per week, just to see if our old trusted ally is back. Sadly, he's still missing in action.
I pray that Rush and Mark come to their senses pretty soon and realize that the primaries are over and the great constitutional conservative Ted Cruz lost. Badly.
We can't go back and we cannot replace our candidate. It's Trump or Hillary. We have to do all we possibly can to make sure Hillary is defeated! And that starts with not bad-mouthing OUR candidate.
There are no do overs and no crying in politics.
Notice that I said "OUR" candidate. This is not like when the GOPe with their big donor bucks installed one of their own sure-losers as the Republican candidate (McCain, Romney, et al) and then told us to suck it up. Which most of us did, even Levin and Limbaugh, because we knew the damage that Obama would do to our country. And he did. And Hillary's damage will be even more severe because she'll be building on Obama's slide into godless socialism and she'll have an immediate shot at packing the courts with godless liberal activists. These judges will be with us for a lifetime. And their rulings for generations. She'll also grant amnesty and voting rights to millions of illegals and throw open our borders to millions more. And then fling the borders wide open for the Muslims. Yup. Sharia law would be coming to a country near you. And the failing Obamacare? No problem. HillaryCare's single payer system will straighten that right out. And she'll save our planet from "climate change" by killing off all our capitalist industries.
Trump was voted in by we the rebellious grassroots voters who are sick and tired and fed up and said NO MAS to the political ruling class and their open borders donors.
This is a voter rebellion and Trump is OUR champion.
We fully intend to crush Hillary and the uniparty in November and reclaim America for AMERICANS!!
Why did we choose Trump to be our champion:
Secure the borders. Build the wall. Enforce the law. End sanctuary cities. Do whatever is humanly possible in deporting as many illegals as we possibly can and or dry up their prospects by enforcing the law and many of them will leave on their own volition.
Slap a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration until we can find out what in the hell is going on! Meanwhile, bomb the shit out of ISIS. And take their oil. And find out what's going on in the mosques.
Rebuild the military!
Throw out Obama's illegal/unconstitutional executive orders and executive agreements. Repeal Obamacare!
Get a handle on trade deals and make sure Americans come first!
Cut the taxes, cut the spending, cut the regulations, cut the government; return the powers and functions reserved to the states back to the states per the constitution and the 10th amendment.
And it's not just about the constitution and national security:
End the ridiculous war on coal, gas & oil, bring back manufacturing. Drill, baby, drill; mine, baby, mine; build, baby, build, farm, baby, farm, produce, baby, produce. The Business of America is business.
Strengthen our economy and create a business friendly environment!
Jobs, baby, jobs!!
Set our people free and let them produce and prosper!!
This is the voter rebellion we've all been longing for. Even bigger than the tea party. Pray Levin and Rush join us. We need their full-throated support to ensure the defeat of the corrupt, America-hating, capitalism-hating, God-hating Hillary and the election of OUR candidate. Donald Trump!!
One of the slogans from the America revolution was:
Join or die!!
Another:
Don't tread on me.
And who can forget:
Give me Liberty or give me death!!
I completely agree with you Jim about every point, except the one about Ted Cruz.
And if anyone’s is interested there’s a fascinating podcast from American Conservative University (1572) entitled “Washington’s Immortals-The Untold story of how an elite regiment changed the cours of the revolution. It’s fascinating because the author did so much research including the pension applications of Revolutionary war veterans.
Trump is one of them and he will be the greatest potus along with Washington!
Dear Cornfed:
The Cruz boyz were caught tweeting about Ben Carson dropping out before CNN picked up the story. Caught red-handed, live tweeting.
It was a UnipartyMSM move to deny Trump that first primary win.
Cruz is a Globalist. Levin must be a Globalist, too.
“being loyal to his principles”, MY ASS, he is being loyal to his sponsors ONLY.
It he is even a small fraction as great as Washington, that would make him a much greater patriot than the vast majority of the DC elite. I
believe he wants to help. I didn’t think it at first but I believe he is sincere. He is going to need a lot of help. The Progressives won’t stop trying to bring him and this country to its knees. The suburbs of Washington are littered with these people, affluent, overpaid and selfish.
What happened here? Free Republic used to have hard core patriots on this site.
Now were upset about “nasty, mean, bullying, bad behavior”?
What happened here, did we all suddenly become pussies?
Politics is warfare without the bullets people; toughen up or just shut the f#ck up and get out.
This is trench and spider hole warfare people; flashlights and 45’s, bayonets and helmet strap pulling, wire stretched between two pieces of wood and a throat.
You want gracious, go to a Goddamn garden party; you want to win, be prepared to KILL up close, messy, and personal.
I WANT TO WIN; F#CK THEIR FEELINGS, and f#ck yours.
When I go into a fight, I go into it to win; and yes, I will lie, cheat, and kill to win.
The object of a real fight is to WIN.
Just remember, THE WINNER GETS TO MAKE THE RULES, and WRITE THE HISTORY.
Nope. Done with levin. Done with michael Berry. Done with meagan kelly. They forgot where they fit and exposed who they are at heart. Life is too short. Ex. ... Knew Gen IAllen since he was a LtCol. Seemed the best of us. Let us down ( almost all fail)...enough...move on.
All good and well, the question here is which side is Mark Levin on?
Well, Levin had me as a fan for a while. An, nothing would please me more than old friends making up and burying the hatchet. But, I am afraid that Levin’s opposition to Trump in support of the globalists is too far a stretch for me.
No, Levin is dead to me. Now and forever.
The beginning of the end for Cruz was TPP. I think he calculated that he could throw that bone to the donor class without too much bellyaching from the grassroots. Other than Santorum, who else was going to call him on it? Then came Trump...
Well said.
Neither do I.
thanks for that info. My guess was that $$$ was related to these ridiculous stances in some way.
I cannot stomach Levin or Rush these days. They are either with us or against us (Meaning with those who understand that Donald J. Trump is our one last chance to save this Republic).
People change sometimes, and it’s not always a change for the better.
As regards Levin, Limbaugh, and Beck, I couldn’t care less about the lot of them. All of them have made fortunes peddling their brand of conservatism. This election has found all of them to be wanting to various degrees. There are plenty of better voices out there to listen to, so there is really no point in being preoccupied by what they think or don’t think.
We don’t sit around and lament that the movie actress of ten years ago is no longer as attractive or popular or as comparatively talented as she once was. We move on because there are plenty of other ones out there.
BTTT
It shows that the globalists were not prepared for any interference to their plans. We’ve caught them flat footed. And now we must finish them off before they have a chance to recover. Down with globalism!
The doubts about Mark began when he was pushing the Article 5 convention but when questioned about how we could be sure the Establishment wouldn’t take it over or how could we be sure the Establishment would abide by the new rules when they aren’t even abiding by the old ones, all he had was “trust me, it’s gonna work”.
And then when he couldn’t explains how Ted Cruz was a natural born citizen.
Credibility seriously eroded.
Yep. Primaries are over. My candidate didn’t make it, and no apologies from the one that won that trashed him. But I’m not voting for Hillary. However, just look for the coming years of “I told you so.”
Meanwhile, you will crawl back under your rock and do America a disservice by not voting
Plenty of Freepers accepted his B$ rational for voting TPP. Most old timers didn't buy it but many Cruisers did.
Cruz is a non entity in the world of politics as far as I can see.
