Are you listening right now???? She’s giving both Newt and Romney some crap and praise.
I’m very tired of people bashing Laura, Rush, et al just because they not shilling for your guy 100%. They both just commnent on the race as they see it.
You can call her a “phoney Beltway insider” but that sounds like a good description of Newt to me.
If you really heard her tell Tea Partiers to “suck it up” and get behind Romney I APOLOGIZE, but I truly doubt she said that (since she was only on for 5 minutes, and not at the beginning of the show.)
But just some housecleaning:

I turn her on as I had described to you previously at 9:00 AM (EST). News came on first and then Laura about 9:07 AM. Her repulsive rant began and I turned her off in disgust at about 9:15 AM. I ventured to her website and read her blog and then on to FR.
Look at the time of my post to this thread. I copied it for you:

10:19 AM! So quite obviously, what I heard was heard prior to that time.
One last thing: I’m very tired of people bashing Laura, Rush, et al just because they not shilling for your guy 100%. They both just commnent on the race as they see it.
And we get to comment on their comments! Isn't that what Free Republic is all about?
Rush and Laura are not perfect. This past summer Laura came out of the closet with respect to the Tea Party. She ridiculed the Tea Party members of Congress who were holding Boehner's feet to the fire with respect to the House passage of "Cut, Cap and Balance". She ridiculed the Tea Party and its members until Boehner succeeded in squashing "Cut, Cap and Balance" in favor of the Super Committee which neutered the hard won majority in the House.
Her radio audience rebelled. Her Facebook pages lit up with complaints and her book sales (as measured on Amazon) plummeted. As the old NY Yankees' manager Casey Stengel used to say, "You could look it up".
I am glad we are leaving one another on amicable terms and maybe we will exchange ideas again.
