LOL. I don’t support open marriage. I’m saying people fall out of love, or grow up, or drastically change, or their spouse makes them miserable, were immature or who knows.... I’m not their Judge and jury. It’s their peace to make with their God. None of my business.

What is the basis of opposing gay marriage?

That marriage is between a man and a woman.

So why not get a divorce, if you’re so miserable? It is possible to get a divorce before starting another relationship when you are married.

It is NOT hard to figure out why Rush will NOT endorse. Read the following:

Wednesday, 11/8/2006 RUSH: “I Feel Liberated” (”from having to constantly come in here every day and try to buck up a bunch of people who don’t deserve it, to try to carry the water and make excuses for people who don’t deserve it.”)

Here’s Rush beginning approximately at the top of the third hour monologue

“Now, I mentioned to you at the conclusion of the previous hour that people having been asking me how I feel all night long. I got, “Boy, Rush, I wouldn’t want to be you tomorrow! Boy, I wouldn’t want to have to do your show! Oh-ho. I’m so glad I’m not you.” Well, folks, I love being me. (I can’t be anybody else, so I’m stuck with it.) The way I feel is this: I feel liberated, and I’m going to tell you as plainly as I can why. I no longer am going to have to carry the water for people who I don’t think deserve having their water carried. Now, you might say, “Well, why have you been doing it?” Because the stakes are high! Even though the Republican Party let us down, to me they represent a far better future for my beliefs and therefore the country’s than the Democrat Party and liberalism does.

I believe my side is worthy of victory, and I believe it’s much easier to reform things that are going wrong on my side from a position of strength. Now I’m liberated from having to constantly come in here every day and try to buck up a bunch of people who don’t deserve it, to try to carry the water and make excuses for people who don’t deserve it.

I did not want to sit here and participate, willingly, in the victory of the libs, in the victory of the Democrat Party by sabotaging my own. But now with what has happened yesterday and today, it is an entirely liberating thing. If those in our party who are going to carry the day in the future — both in Congress and the administration — are going to choose a different path than what most of us believe, then that’s liberating. I don’t say this with any animosity about anybody, and I don’t mean to make this too personal.

I’m not trying to tell you that this is about me. I’m just answering questions that I’ve had from people about how I feel.

There have been a bunch of things going on in Congress, some of this legislation coming out of there that I have just cringed at, and it has been difficult coming in here, trying to make the case for it when the people who are supposedly in favor of it can’t even make the case themselves — and to have to come in here and try to do their jobs.

I’m a radio guy! I understand what this program has become in America and I understand the leadership position it has. I was doing what I thought best, but at this point, people who don’t deserve to have their water carried, or have themselves explained as they would like to say things but somehow aren’t able to? I’m not under that kind of pressure.

Am I making myself clear on this, Mr. Snerdley? (interruption) No, I’m not lying. Snerdley’s concerned. I’ve not lied about anything I’ve said. Let me try this a different way. (sigh) I’m going to have to think about this. I tried to make it as clear as I can.

I’m not going to eat my own, and I’m not going to throw my own overboard, particularly in a campaign, and particularly when the country is at war — and I’m not going to do it for selfish reasons, and I’m not going to do it to stand out, and I’m not going to do it to be different. I’m not going to do it to draw attention from our enemies. I’m not going to do anything I do so that the Drive-By Media will like me or think that, “Ooooh, Limbaugh has changed! Ooooh, Limbaugh is coming around!”

That’s not my thinking. My thinking is: the left doesn’t deserve to win. My thinking is: the country is imperiled with liberal victory. We may not have the best people on our side, but they’re better than what we have on the left.”

Here is my problem with that. In a primary there is a CHANCE to advance the cause of Conservatism. Rush is NOT stupid, Surely he knows that Romney is doomed to fail.

So you think people should live in miserable marriages that lack love out of obligation —for the rest of their lives?

I can’t answer for anyone else’s thoughts, but neither is a paragon of virtue.

Agreed.

And WHY is it between a man and a woman?

Why does it matter? If the vows are not sacred, or if life is too short to be unhappy, or in a loveless marriage, why is the love between a man and man or a woman and a woman not justified?

I don’t care who Rush votes for, I don’t understand why he is too chicken to tell anyone. btw, I may still vote for Sarah Palin, she might still run. I’d vote for Newt if he gets it. He might put together a cabinet of people much like those who are endorsing him, which are good quality people. I won’t vote for Romney. I support starting a new party to take on both the GOP and Democrat parties if Romney is chosen.

Something is definitely off. He doesn’t even have to endorse anyone, but this wide-eyed dumb act is absurd.

i don’t give anyone a pass cheating is wrong - period if you break your sacred vow to your spouse, you will break any vow - any promise you make to me you are a demonstrated liar if you cheat i judge those people openly if you were dumb enough to marry someone that ‘nags’, you made your bed - live with it or get a divorce

So who died and gave you power to 'judge'....
