Rush claims the battle was lost when conservatives started modifying the word marriage (traditional marriage, straight marriage) to describe the institution rather than insisting that the word itself necessarily refers to traditional/straight relationships and therefore doesnt require modification.
How would you have enforced that message discipline against the left, though? Their 40 percent of the country would have been calling it gay marriage no matter what.

It is not wise to take morality out of a society for any society to endure long term. The religious voices are important in this discussion. If you don’t have integrity or set standards, the financial system and basis of the government as it is now will always be corrupt. Why change a marriage to accommodate a lifestyle choice (free choice) for some citizens. What’s next to be changed? Why create further stress on the court system and on families. Why do the gays need special rights. It’s amazing people cannot admit that Rush gave the enemy motivation while depressing his listeners. Very disappointed in ElRushbo. A team wins with confidence. He gave reason for uncertainly; when we have no opposition voices in leadership (as he knows very well) who will not speak up. I think it was a bad move. It’s done now. We can disagree though.
Serious conservatives don’t continue to drone on and on about that which they know little about......
—>>We can only win by taking down the mainstream media. To take down/abandon Rush as you are doing is helping them win.
By the way, I didn’t speak for Rush. He plans for his show so if there’s any fallout/praise, talk to Rush.
Serious conservatives don’t have to listen to Limbaugh to get their brains activated in his morning talk show.
Sadly, it seems that Rush no longer wants to be inspirational. Though at least he discusses some social issues these days. He rarely did in the past. I think he's come late to the realization that politics is downstream of culture.
Rush, Hannity, Beck and all of the rest have always been in it for the cash. Rush, especially, could have run for President and won with the ideas he has...but, he won't do it. No one wants to face the real fire. However, making money on the side selling tickets to watch the fire is a lucrative proposition.
“It should have been an eye-opener when Rush who brands himself as a conservative icon calls upon the worlds most
notorious fag to perform at his wedding. Rush has begun to seriously believe that we are all stupid dittoheads and drink from his fountain of conservative thinking.”
I stopped listening to him regularly several years ago; for those who still do, has he admitted on-air that he supports civil unions or does he save that little tidbit for interviews he doesn’t think you’ll read?
There are two Rush Limbaughs: the man himself, and the character he plays on the radio. Conflate the two at your peril. He’s a very successful entertainer, nothing more.
Really. And what have you done for "the common man" lately?
besides, who said it was their responsibility to care about "the common man" anymore than anyone else?
I think it is lost. I think the entire country is lost. Conservatives are being bred out of this society and will be non-existent in less than 50 years. The history books will be overhauled to create criminals of us and all of our principled leaders, etc. We’ve seen this in progress for 50 years now and it is continuing in every school in the country. Unfettered immigration is speeding it up, too, and there’s zero we can seemingly do about it.
Really? As compared to you, who has done what for "the human condition" besides nothing?.
surrender is not going to win any votes
How votes is the GOPe willing to lose over this issue by giving up?
Marriage it self is lost so long as it is integrated with the sin of sodomy its meaning cannot be made truly be compatible with its propose.
“Not lost.
Someday society will rediscover the fact that breeders are different from every other permutation of couple, and need be treated different to improve society.”
I agree and on that day marriage will be rediscovered.
How can Rush not concede? It was over when the MSM started calling it “marriage equality”. Now if you are for real marriage, you’re an anti-equality bigot.
"Now" ?
What, did he only accept checks before?
We can only win by taking down the mainstream media. To take down/abandon Rush as you are doing is helping them win.
They aren’t going to listen to you. They don’t care if they end up helping Pravda USA.
Who in the world says Christians don't sin? Everyone does, and no one has claimed otherwise. The Bible instructs us to speak up about sin, but when we do, to make sure we aren't committing the same offense. Otherwise, Scripture tells us how TO judge sin.
Liars, thieves, and adulterers aren't running around, demanding people fawn over them and approve of their behavior. People are falling over themselves to cave to the homofascists. I never will.
" We could have shown compassion for gays as human beings and tried to help. Jesus would have. Im not Christian but even I know Jesus ignored peoples sins and tried to serve them."
Jesus ignored people's sins......what?? No. He did not.
Visit San Francisco, where you can see queers prancing naked in public, urinating on each other and drinking it, and parading their adopted children around in leather. Or, maybe you might be at a Catholic Mass when a bunch of them invade God's house and commit sacrilege against the Eucharist.
My compassion is damn well running at an all-time low.
Go tell it to YOUR boss.
I think when he hired Elton John for his wedding that should have told us, how we would be on this issue.

Amen!
