Rush Limbaugh slammed the Republican Party after once again rubber-stamping a spending bill that once again gave Barack Obama everything he wished for.
Rush went so far as to suggest it is time to disband the Republican Party.
We are all with you on that, Rush Limbaugh. Via the Rush Limbaugh Show:
Rush Limbaugh: The country was just sold down the river again by your very Republican Party.
I have a headline here from the Washington Times: "White House Declares Total Victory Over GOP in Budget Battle." That headline's a misnomer. There was never a battle. None of this was opposed. The Republican Party didn't stand up to any of it, and the die has been cast for a long time on this. I know many of you are dispirited, depressed, angry, combination of all of that. But, folks, there was no other way this could go. Because two years ago when the Republican Party declared they would never do anything that would shut down the government and they would not impeach Obama, there were no obstacles in Obama's way and there were no obstacles in the way of the Democrat Party ...
... It fully funds Planned Parenthood. That, to me, is unforgivable, with everything now known about what goes on behind closed doors at Planned Parenthood, and that the federal government, led by a Republican Party, sees fit to pay for it. It is beyond comprehension, and it is a total squandering of moral authority to fully fund the butchery at Planned Parenthood. This spending bill fully pays for Obama's refugee plans, fully. This spending bill, this budget bill quadruples the number of visas Obama wants for foreign workers. This is even a slap at American union workers. Not the leaders. The union leaders seem to be in favor of it, but blue-collar people, known as working people, have been sold down the river along with everybody else here.
This spending bill even fully pays for every dime asked for by Obama on all of this idiocy that's tied up into climate change. Everything Obama wanted, everything he asked for, he got. You go down the list of things, it's there.
And this is causing some people to wonder if they just dreamed all that stuff about Boehner resigning. And then other people are wondering if they even dreamed all that stuff about the Republicans winning the largest number of seats they've had in Congress since the Civil War. We had two midterm elections in 2010 and 2014, which were landslide victories for the Republican Party. The Democrat Party lost over a thousand seats nationwide in just those two elections. People went to the polls in droves wanting exactly what was rubber-stamped last night (or what will be) stopped.
And instead they showed up in record numbers and they it turned out and they just defeated Democrats down the ballot. In the process, they elected Republicans to stop this. And now the Republicans have the largest number of seats in the House they've had in Congress since the Civil War. And it hasn't made any difference at all. It is as though Nancy Pelosi is still running the House and Harry Reid is still running the Senate. "Betrayed" is not even the word here. What has happened here is worse than betrayal. Betrayal is pretty bad, but it's worse than that.
This was out-and-out, in-our-face lying, from the campaigns to individual statements made about the philosophical approach Republicans had to all this spending.
There is no Republican Party! You know, we don't even need a Republican Party if they're gonna do this. You know, just elect Democrats, disband the Republican Party, and let the Democrats run it, because that's what's happening anyway. And these same Republican leaders doing this can't, for the life of them, figure out why Donald Trump has all the support that he has? They really can't figure this out?
Repeated stabs in the back like this - which have been going on for years - combined with Obama's policy destruction of this country, is what has given rise to Donald Trump. If Donald Trump didn't exist and if the Republican Party actually does want to win someday, they'd have to invent him. It's just mind-boggling when you figure out everything that has been granted Obama. All the money, the tax increases, the Cadillac plans in Obamacare. All kinds of punitive things in Obamacare, delayed yet again so that people will not be made aware of the pain and suffering Obamacare’s gonna cause.
Mankind, including that trump demigod (who thinks a man or men can make a nation "great") is clearly at diabolical suicidal war with it's Creator.
Ephesians 6:12
 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
I agree with your sentiment. We are a bunch of pathetic leppers:
2 Kings 7:3
And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?
2012 was for all the marbles. The only chance to repeal Obamacare. It is too late now. 2016 is for nothing but show. We missed our last chance to slow the rate of the American decline and fall. There is nothing left of it but the crying. Jeb Bush will somehow be installed as president in 2016, and the beat goes on.
it’s true, with “leaders” like John Boehner, Mitch McConnel, Paul Ryan, John McLame etc, the GOP is little more than obammy’s butt boy.Time to leave the GOP and start a real conservative party.
F-em, tired of ALWAYS capitulation.
Hey GOP “leaders”, climb out of obammy rear end there ya losers.
Oh, nooo, obammy is a negro. We can’t take any stand against his sorry ass cause we may lose the black vote that the GOP does not nor ever will have.
F-ing idiots.
I've been played one time too many.
And he still hasn't said a word about NAFTA which he was a proponent of.
I dare you to get some replacement parts your sink from China. The tolerance stack ups won't work so buy at least 3 to get one to fit, and then the stuff don't last.
Bring it all back, I'll pay $5 more not to have the opportunity cost of having to make this crap work. Some manufacturing or machine shop in a state like OH would love to supply something like this, and I'd love to buy it...
Rush is right...again.
You make a good point, but I have to have hope that we can still take our country back.
So, please indulge me.
I agree. I’m fed up with buying what used to be a quality brand of hardware only to find it is junk made in China that doesn’t last.
You should never lose hope even in the face of certain defeat. Especially in the face of certain defeat. I believe in miracles, I just don’t think my nation deserves His Grace to save us from ourselves once again. But never give up hope.
Big deal.
For being the smartest guy in conservatism, it took him, what, only fifteen years to catch up to caller “Karen From Whitefish, Montana”? As I have said before, she posited the very same conclusion and he ripped into her with a passion of vengeance I’ve never heard before or since on his program. (Full disclosure, for the past few years I listen only a couple of hours a year to him)
If Rush really believes this as betrayal worthy of eradication, he will lend his weight to both the demise of the GOP *and* an effort to build an alternative.
I’m not holding my breath, as his billion dollar empire hangs in the balance.
Agreed.
We don’t deserve it, but I hope Gods grants greatnus once again to America.
I don’t disagree with you at all on that.
GFY
He is right on the money as always.
It’s because the GOPe are guided by, well Kasichs daughter who tells him to play nice with Dems, oh, and Paul Ryan who wants compromise...YUCK
The Republican Party is a party of girlie men who embrace PC and avoid conflict.
