Rush Limbaugh Goes Full Nutter - The Most Illogical Pretzel Argument Ever Presented

The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 2-25-2016 | sundance

I know from the comments section many people have discussed how bizarre the recent ravings of Rush Limbaugh have become. However, I had not spent time listening to them, until this happened.

As far as I can tell this was actually broadcast by Rush Limbaugh yesterday. To say he’s contracted a viral strain of election cycle cognitive dissonance would be a severe understatement. Listen to this logic:

I know from the comments section many people have discussed how bizarre the recent ravings of Rush Limbaugh have become. However, I had not spent time listening to them, until this happened.

As far as I can tell this was actually broadcast by Rush Limbaugh yesterday. To say he’s contracted a viral strain of election cycle cognitive dissonance would be a severe understatement. Listen to this logic:

If Ted Cruz wants to win he’s got to focus exclusively on attacking Trump. Why? Because Cruz has to realize Marco Rubio is not going to drop out. If Rubio is not going to drop out, Rubio is not the obstacle – Trump is…

See if you can follow this logic. Marco Rubio is not going to leave the race, therefore it is the better course to attack the stronger frontrunner because, well, according to the Limbaugh logic, Trump winning in all the contests must mean he is positioned to leave the race – or something.

Seriously, this is what Rush Limbaugh is presenting to his audience. This makes absolutely ZERO sense. This is completely nonsensical. This is epic level moonbattery.

What makes Limbaugh think Donald Trump, a candidate who has won three consecutive resounding victories, is less disposed to staying in the presidential race than a freshman senator who has won absolutely no primary contests?

…And if Trump is no less committed to exit, then how does it make more sense to spend time trying to eliminate the stronger of the two candidate options?

We have heard rumors there are times when ineffective “gaslighting” can lead to absolutely insane expressions of logic. It would appear this rumor is profoundly true.

People pay this guy to hear this stuff?

>> Trump was a conservative when Rush was in kindergarten <<

Let’s see:

Rush is now 65 and Trump is 69. So when Rush was in kindergarten at age five, Trump would have been nine.

Gotta love those nine-year-old conservatives!

(Especially when they have orange hair!)

Really? But you already knew it wasn’t free - and now you’re screaming that it’s not free - ROTFLOL

If you go to Rush’s website just before the program comes on; all you have to do is wait until the little icon (with a picture of Rush’s face) lights up - saying, “on the air”.

THAT IS FREEEEEEEE .. please try to use your brain - it will make your life so much easier.

Well compared to what? reading Green Eggs and Ham all night on the floor of the Senate? :-)

“Sundance’s articles are extraordinarily researched and documented.”

Except when he posts flat out lies that could be revealed with a 10 second google search. Of course those are usually ignored by his fans, because they bash candidates that his fans don’t like.

I’m talking about his podcasts. Not live broadcasting. The person I was giving information to was asking how he could listen to Rush for free if he misses a show. You aren’t too bright, are you?

[Hawthorn]

>> If Limbaugh doesn’t savage Romney for his scurrilous attack on Trump’s income taxes <<

Rush’s take on the matter is totally irrelevant. Trump doesn’t need Rush to defend him or to apologize for him.

The solution could not be simpler:

All Trump needs to do is to release those returns.

Then, unless Trump has something very damaging to hide, he’d be unmasking Romney as a duplicitous fool, a devious prevaricator and a leftist shill.

C’mon Donald! Deliver that knockout blow to Romney!

I miss the old moonbattery of Talk Radio.

The Golden Age of Talk Radio is fading with all this seriousness. At least Beck’s tirades are interesting to read about.

Talk radio will diminish without more humor.

Whether Rush said it or quoted it it, hearing about humdrum horserace pointers is tedious. The audience cannot debate for Cruz.

[TTFlyer]

Oh, okay.....The old “if you have nothing to hide what are you afraid of” gambit......

Got it.

[CyberAnt]

ROTFLOL - Well I’m smarter than you. I don’t demand people who have a business to supply me with it’s services for FREEEEEEE.

Life is not FREE. When you own a business, you have a right to charge people for that information.

Good grief.

[Durbin]

“ROTFLOL - Well I’m smarter than you. I don’t demand people who have a business to supply me with it’s services for FREEEEEEE.”

I didn’t demand anybody give me anything for free. So WTF are you even talking about?

[Hawthorn]

>> Doesn’t matter if Rush Limbaugh, or Thomas Sowell, or Mark Levin has decades of history promoting the cause. One bad word about Trump and they are placed on the Index of Forbidden Works <<

Exactly.

And some members of the cult put Walter Williams on their Forbidden List yesterday.

The beat goes on!

‘Interesting that a guy with multiple failed marriages and a nasty drug habit is rooting for a character attack on Trump.’

I support Trump too, but frankly there’s no need to get all ‘Clintonista’ on Rush.

I think Rush is just trying to level the playing field for the scrappy Number 2 and Number 3. Big deal. Let him. Not like he’s getting nasty about Trump.

If you want to really gripe about someone try this ...

So, my fellow ‘brown shirt’, looks like we have been ‘outed’ by Glenn Beck. /sarc

[Dagnabitt]

Even worse than listening to Limbaugh is trying to read one of his stream-of consciousness, no-editing word-salads that his website puts out. Painful.

[Hawthorn]

>>> The old “if you have nothing to hide what are you afraid of” <<<

Exactly. Truer words were never spoken. Could not have said it better myself. Thanks!

ROTFLOL - UNVELIEVABLE

Goodbye

There is a lot of ‘low info voter’ energy in the Trump campaign. It’s different and takes getting used to.

But at least Trump keeps the low info PATRIOTS from being sucked into the same vacuum cleaner along with low-info libs.

So yeah, some Trump supporters go overboard. And hey, don’t forget the Cruz crazies like Glenn Beck. I’m a lot less ashamed of Trump supporters than I would be of that loon.

[CyberAnt]

Sorry .. UNBELIEVABLE

I was just laughing too hard.

[Durbin]

“ROTFLOL - UNVELIEVABLE”

Crack kills. You should lay off of it.

You mock the few men who carry out a principled filibuster for the good of the country?

Are you a supporter of the evil that Cruz fought?

where did I argue that Rubio had any qualifications?
