The New York Times Blames Your Host for Anti-Lockdown Protests

Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | April 23, 2020 | Rush Limbaugh

[Kaslin]

RUSH: I’m still responsible for all the protests out there. Despite never having advocated even a one of them. Oh, yeah, we’ve commented on them, but I haven’t advocated a protest.

I haven’t given marching orders, because I never do. Yesterday on the New York Times website they have a podcast called The Daily, and Jim Rutenberg… This guy used to be dependable years ago when he first got the gig. This is what he had to say about the protests against the states and the governors and their stay-at-home orders.

RUTENBERG: As these protests roll out, they’re becoming a cause celebre in conservative media.

RUSH ARCHIVE: By the way, there are uprisings all over this country against governors and their restrictions.

RUTENBERG: They’re getting tons of play! Rush Limbaugh, all the talk radio hosts! But you have ample coverage on Fox News’ regular news programming as well. We started to see some tweets from the president of the United States. “Liberate Minnesota! Liberate Michigan! Liberate Virginia.”

RUSH: So apparently these protests are really, really bad. They’re really, really rotten. They shouldn’t be happening, and conservatives are responsible for it. I’m responsible for it, the president’s responsible for it, talk radio in general is responsible for them. Fox News is responsible for it! Yet when the left goes out and protests, they are the greatest things in the world!

They are the greatest example of American history. It’s public and popular dissent. They’re “speaking truth to power,” however they characterized. By the way, Gavin Newsom, who is the governor of California, has forbidden public protests on the grounds of the California state capitol in Sacramento.

Permits will no longer be granted for malcontents that want to protest on the capitol grounds — which are gorgeous. It’s a beautiful setup there, the state capitol California. But still, when did protests become horrible and rotten and something we need to blame organizers for? You know the answer to that.

Hillary’s statement only applies to democrats protesting Republican politicians/administrations. It was never intended to apply democrats. Protesting against democrats verges on treason. /s

[bagster]

So what is your solution? Stay holed up indefinitely?

[bert]

He tells us all the time has never been a student, at all.

He is odds with VP Sepnce but chicken to tell him

The basis for all Rush’s current his arguments is ignorance and non comprehension

[Rennes Templar]

“attacks on the models”

You say that as if the data being fed into the models is accurate.

Okay, once again. English this time.

[bert]

I’ll foll ow the excellent guidance of the President

The governors have all the info for their states and will decide a course forward, perhaps county by county.

“Rush has no science and not much math.

His serial Monday Morning Water Boy attacks on the models is proof”

It is clear that you do not like Rush so I have to ask why? In many of your recent posts in other threads you have been insulting the intelligence and work ethic of Americans and saying foreign labor was superior. Do you propose that we replace Rush with someone from India?

[mass55th]

I’m surprised they haven’t blamed him or President Trump for the Boston Tea Party, especially Rush since he wrote those Rush Revere books.

[bagster]

Do you propose that we replace Rush with someone from India?

"I'm your host, Gurpreet Limbaugh, with half a slurpee behind my back just to make it fair."

Yep, protests became 'horrible and rotten' the moment the protesters were traditional Americans.

[mass55th]

Looks like Meghan McCain. Pregnant or not pregnant, Meghan looks the same.

So....you know what sheep think?

[mass55th]

"The basis for all Rush’s current his arguments is ignorance and non comprehension"

Perhaps Rush being caught up in learning as much as he can about all the medical treatments out there for his cancer has caused him to go out on a limb on the treatment methods of coronavirus. Just a guess.

[Osage Orange]

Wait.....you’ve been here since 2012...and you aren’t a Rush fan. A listener?

[DLfromthedesert]

I haven’t heard Rush disagree with that.

[bagster]

so...you know what sheep think?

I know what everything thinks.

[Osage Orange]

What do you whisper in their ears.....

[bert]

Actually, I have been an ardent Rush listener for more years than I can count, ball park 30+. He is a rare source of truth

However on his return he did nothing but criticize the models with his primary point of reference being his valid criticism of climate models. Just making that criticism illustrates his lack of understanding. He makes a wholesale frontal assault with no actual weapons or ammo. Just endless repetitive blather

He was in effect comparing rutabagas to apples. His argument was invalid

[Buckeye McFrog]

Rush has no science and not much math. His serial Monday Morning Water Boy attacks on the models is proof

Well, if you like attacks on the models, there's this.



My model shows 2.2 million are gonna die.

Check that, I meant 240,000

Uh, make that 100,000

Actually let's go with 91,000

No no no, eighty, 83,000

Nope nope, better make it 61,000

Hold it, I forgot to carry the 2. The real number is...

[Harpotoo]

Rush and Trump didn’t tell me to go to the protest here in Raleigh on Tuesday local patriots called it together and I heeded their call!
