FULL TITLE: Rush Limbaugh: Left 'scared out of their wits' about Trump July 4 parade, Kaepernick 'fooled everybody'

Conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh said Wednesday that liberals are terrified by President Trump's planned parade to celebrate Independence Day.

"The flag makes people tend to think more like a Republican. It tends to make people support Republicans. It tends to inspire patriotic thoughts," said Limbaugh, citing a Harvard study.

"The left remembers this, and they are terrified of tomorrow [Thursday], especially the people actually in Washington," Limbaugh continued. "I think that, truth be told, they are scared out of their wits that Trump is going to have maybe one of the biggest Fourth of July celebrations Washington has ever seen. It is going to be loud. It’s gonna be proud. It’s going to be an in-your-face celebration of freedom in America."

The radio show host argued that liberals are threatened by freedom.

"What will be on display at Trump’s joyous Independence Day bash ... will be a celebration of freedom, which is the real threat they face," Limbaugh said.

Limbaugh also blasted former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and accused him of "fooling" everyone with his anthem protests and being anti-American from the beginning

"Nike takes down the shoes because Colin Kaepernick fooled everybody into thinking what he was really concerned about was the killing by cops of African-Americans," Limbaugh said.

"But it turned out Colin Kaepernick, all along, was anti-America, and the cop-killing position was just a cover. He was really kneeling ’cause he didn’t like the anthem. He was really kneeling because the flag during 'The Star-Spangled Banner' offended him."

Nike decided to stop the release of the America-themed sneaker, which featured a Betsy Ross flag, “based on concerns that it could unintentionally offend” people.

I’m with you on that. The left’s hatred for this country , the very week Americans get together to celebrate it’s birthday , they choose to degrade and criticize this wonderful celebration in the most disgusting ways, and further have outrageous protests at this event! They are despicable people who need to find another country to be in....this one certainly isn’t for them.

And the right is working, paying taxes, contributing to society, responsibly taking care of their families, etc.

Don’t have time (or Soros’ resources) like the left (welfare funded) does.

n 1776, then-future President John Adams sent a letter to his wife, Abigail, outlining how the country’s declared independence from England should be celebrated. He wrote that “the day should be marked with “pomp & parade, with shews [shows], games, sports, bonfires, bells and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other from this time forward forever more”

Of course these commies and socialists aren’t familiar with our country’s history so there’s that....

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just another attempt at revisionist history by the progs.

I think this pic, though made up, will cause tens of millions of patriotic Americans to hate Kaepernick rather like the same tens of millions hate Jane.

I’m sure Jane has endured thousands of incidents (expressions of hatred towards her) none of us know about. I wish the same or worse for Colin.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Kapernick p’d off a $25 million/year contract to be duped into linda sarsour’s jihad.

Nike shoes are being produced by little 8 year olds, who work long hours everyday. Nike knows it. Nike approves of it. Shame on anyone wearing a Nike product.

We went to a Veterans’ Day parade once and we got a wonderful surprise—stealth bombers flying over us!

That had such an impact on the crowd; people just went crazy, cheering, crying, waving their flags.

There was just something about a show of American power that stirs something very deep in our souls.

Those jets were breathtaking. The beauty is in all of the skill and courage you can feel is there; completely controlled and restrained. Yet, ready to strike with a fury like no other if required.

The left has a lot to fear from these kinds of displays. The punchline is that this happened in Palm Springs. Not exactly a conservative utopia.

I suspect many of the parade goers, many of whom were taking a break from Pride festivities, surprised themselves.

Whoa.

That is an incredible image. Did you create it? Is it posted somewhere?

I think about Normandy often these days. I can’t even.

What those men went charging into, with no air support at all; I just can’t get my mind to imagine what it must have been like for them,

How do you dig so deeply within and find that kind of courage?

If I call Colin and his ilk a bunch of pukes, I owe puke a hearty apology.

And the right is the team that actually knows how to *use* their guns.

Ever see a thug handle a firearm?

funny how the media and the left have re-branded the festivities and TRUMPS 4th celebration

As they continue to use Alanskky tactics to marginalize and isolate him and all conservatives.

This is the Country’s fourth of july celebration.

Anyone think Tiger Woods is hurting for money? No, me either. How sweet would it be for him to tell Nike and there Sponsorship to go shove it.

It reminds me of what happened when military units were training for Bill Clinton's first inauguration. While U.S. Air Force jets did a rehearsal flyover, one new Clinton aide complained that the military was trying to horn in on their celebration. Another aide corrected her saying "those are OUR jets now."
