AND NOW... amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke... it is time for... that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-The-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, serving humanity simply by showing up, and hes not retiring until every American agrees with him - do NOT doubt him - with shrieks of joy at the mere mention of his name (thats Rush, for those in Rio Linda),the Mandarin of Talk Radio, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, all-concerned Maha-Rushie! Americas anchorman, truth detector, and doctor of democracy. A real man, a living legend, a way of life. Commander-in-Chief of U.S. Operation Chaos. Chief Waga-Waga El Rushbo of the El Conservo Tribe. Chief of the Patriotism Police. Leader of the Conservative Movement. A Weapon of Mass Instruction. El Rushbo (a little Spanish lingo, there). He is the man who is running America (you know it and I know it). He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do host. Get ready to what you were born to do listen. And post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread.
If you look at today’s thread, it’s all about how Rush isn’t conservative & Trump is...did you miss that?
He’s been pretty consistent. Go listen to his interview with Oprah in 1988. He’s saying very similar things to what he says today. He is basically running on that platform. He has changed on abortion but that’s a good thing (Or do you just like to argue with pro choice people just for the heck of it?)
Sort of curious...I used to know what a conservative was.
Now, I have no idea.
I used to know what a Constitutionalist was.
Now, I have no idea.
I used to know what a citizen was.
Now, I have no idea.
Labels are the new libel.
Libelous language by adjective. The new normal.
Obama spends 71 seconds on Brussels.
He would not even deign to devote the amount of time for him to smoke half a blunt.
I responded to a specific statement you made in your post re Rush, no more, no less.
Maybe when Obama is cuddling with the Castros they'll all play with Cuban Cigars. It's what Bill Clinton would do.
I feeling a bit ill now, thanks.
The honor of the nation: Obama...
She offered her honor. He honored her offer. And all through the night it was honor and offer.
Conservative Media is the home plate of Dogmatic Conservatism. They live eat, breath, sleep dogma. For them theory of Conservatism is more important then anything else
The 2016 GOP Primary has brought up an old divide in Conservatism. There currently is a war being waged between the Dogmatics and the Realists. The Dogmatist care nothing about political realities, only the purity of the candidates political dogma matters to them. The Realist understands you have to be able to advance the political ball down the field to achieve the goals of the dogma. The Realist understands some times a flawed tool is going work better then the flawlessly poltical pure tool.
Reagan, who was a realist, wrote about it.
By Ronald Reagan in his autobiography An American Life
When I began entering into the give and take of legislative bargaining in Sacramento, a lot of the most radical conservatives who had supported me during the election didnt like it. Compromise was a dirty word to them and they wouldnt face the fact that we couldnt get all of what we wanted today. They wanted all or nothing and they wanted it all at once. If you dont get it all, some said, dont take anything. Id learned while negotiating union contracts that you seldom got everything you asked for. And I agreed with FDR, who said in 1933: I have no expectations of making a hit every time I come to bat. What I seek is the highest possible batting average. If you got seventy-five or eighty percent of what you were asking for, I say, you take it and fight for the rest later, and thats what I told these radical conservatives who never got used to it.
The Dogmatic at NR, Town Hall, Red State and the rest of the Conservative media sneer at the realist as being nihlistic towards DC and the GOP.
It is not Nihilism, it Realism. Since 1988 Conservatives have faithfully pledges their treasure and time to the GOP. Despite elections successes in 1988, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2010 and 2014 what have Conservative gotten from the GOP?
Prosperity? Nope worse economy since 1979.
Reduction in Government-nope as expensive, corrupt, incompetent, intrusive and bigger then ever
Supreme Court? Nope as far left as it has ever been.
A Nation secure? Nope at risk in a dangerous world. Military broken, exhausted and overextended.
A respect for rule of law and the Constitution? Nope. Government, and society, is more lawless then it has ever been.
A healthy growing vibrant society? Nope stagnant, or in decline, everywhere in every way.
So, it not Nihilism, it Realism. It is a realistic assessment that doing the same thing again this year electorally is going to continue this decline and degradation from DC.You can only overcome inertia in any system with force. So we need to force DC out of it denigrate path onto a new path. So why Trump rather then Cruz?
I know this falls on deaf ears with 100%ers at NR, Red State and other Conservative media but the fact remains, we are a Constitutional Republic that rests on the notion that the peoples Representatives in Government know how to compromise and negotiate.
This feeling that Cruz will ride into DC and dictate the Conservative Medias 100%er terms to everyone else there is simply wishful thinking. What is more probable is Cruz would be a GOP Carter.
Carter was the same sort of religious political puritan who went to DC and assumed he would dictate his political dogmas to everyone there. The record shows how badly that idea failed.
Conservative politicians talk a good game and then go to DC and accomplish nothing. After 30 years of fail, it is time to try another solution. The winning candidate is, brace yourselves.... going to have to cut DEALS! And some times those deals require..compromise!!!
Another fail point for the Principled Conservatives is they think only as far as the election. Then once they win their purity candidates go to DC and fail against the inertia of the DC/Media political machine. 1988-1994-1998-2000-2002-2004-2010-2014 are all example of where this Next election mindset has failed.
Trump is merely the 1st wave of a multi wave assault. Cruz might do for a follow up wave, he is not a 1st wave candidate. Without Trump to lead the way, the Cruz boat would of either been ignored because it was irrelevant, or been shelled into oblivion by the $10s of millions of GOPE attack ads.
The 1st wave job in any assault is to shatter the defenses and open the road for the follow up waves. No matter how flawed you think the vessel is, Trump is the best 1st wave political assault team we have had to hand in my lifetime.
We need to use Trump for all he is worth to shatter the corrupt, my party right or wrong mindset that grips vast swaths of the electorate. Break that inertia, get the people thinking outside the party label box and real change is possible. Do not an we slide into a stagnate European style decline that will not end in my lifetime. Cruz shares that agenda point but is not as well equipped by background and media following to achieve that break through as Trump
We either win this now or we have little chance of ever doing it again politically. Once we win we must relentlessly stay on the attack election wave after election wave until we are dead.
I am really not willing to leave this fight to my kids and grand-kids. We have let the ship of state drift since Reagan in the hands of the smart people. We failed and must redeem that failure.
This is our generations go time
Sean is not #2 with 13-15 million listeners because he follows Rush or because he has a tv show. He's good--knows talk radio inside out,a true professional. Something most here wouldn't have a clue about. hes also a true conservative.
All you have to do is listen to his daily monologue every day from 3-4 pm Eastern to get who he is.
........... Hey bud where did all these friggin' trolls come from!This place is becoming a rush/hate thread by people who don't know their ass from a whole in the ground.
Rush was just talking about how he was hoarse yesterday. Yesterday? He’s been sounding this way for the last few years
His voice has been deteriorating drastically over the last 5 years. I have recordings of him from the past and he’s just not the same.
He speaks in a croaky monotone now, nowhere near the way he used to.
I don’t think his cigar habit is helping his voice any.
Don’t ask them tough questions they will get a headache,low IQ trolls here...
Ever notice the bashers have start dates several years old ? They are like those bugs that come out the ground every few years to raise hell
yep , bugs
Rush, monemts ago, talked about Trump’s ability to not forget his place when he resumes speaking and said...”Where do you think he got it from”?
THAT tells us ONE of his major problems with Trump is deep seated childish ENVY.
Typical troll knows just how far they can go to keep from being thrown off,go away butthead.
Brilliant stuff John thanks very much.
Exactly bud. Unfortunately this place is loaded with old, old trolls who come out from under the bridge whenever they can start some crap.Only saving grace is that they are like muzzies they are dumb.
He was a registered Democrat from 2001-2009, he was in the Reform party...
