Dr. Thorne: Rush did what every politician does - cave and then try to make it sound like he's not caving. Besides the "we're all in this together" meme that he is pushing lies this bottom line truth: Rush grovelled and then pulled the rug out from under all of us who have been supporting him in this mess, like a general who deployed his troops and then ran.

Good rant. Aren't you impressive!? Now suppose Rush drops dead tomorrow like Breitbart did.

Then what?

Sean Hannity becomes the new William F Buckley? I don't think so. And FR is hanging by an IT thread too!

Your analogy about generals is good though. The conservative movement is acting like an Army where 1/3 of the soldiers run around proud of fragging their leaders, 1/3 of them are deserting because their generals are not getting promotions, and 1/3 are afraid to even say boo to the liberal enemies and family members in their own dining rooms, much less fight them with the zeal of a Rush or a Breitbart.

And the enemy can't believe how easy their victories are coming.

Your response was your own brilliance. It had nothing to do with me.

From “Andrew Breitbart for the Offense” :

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2854690/posts

We should be hated and feared by the enemies of freedom. We should never bow to them, never apologize to them, never play the game they want us to play. Their hate is a badge of honor. Their fury and abuse are signs of our effectiveness. The people on the right whom the left love most are those who gore their oxen the least. These soft conservatives don’t dare upset politically correct pieties.
