Rush Limbaugh: The "Leader for Conservatives"

[raven8699]

Fuck Rush Limbaugh. What little respect I may have had for him in the past was lost when he purposefully ignored and devalued the significance of Ron Paul. 

[indiajesuslovesyou]

A majority of Americans are conservative! Rush represents this group and does a great job of articulating our concerns about the wrong direction American Government is taking? Thankyou. James Sasse.

[claudius1964]

i couldn't help but notice how media matters and conservatives have this parrot-counter-parrot battle going on.... lol

[QwukeStudioz]

rush vs. moore. the ultimate scream off.

[MrKryptoknight]

Screw all of them....

[armyvet1977]

Limbaugh doesn't hold a candle to Michael Savage as far as true Conservatism goes!

[grapestew]

You people are scary you do realize we need both parties? one to keep the other in check when one is out of power? why all the hate! we are supposed to be an advanced society and debate without throwing punches or when you lack or lose a debate man it up and stay away from insults.

[heartsofspace]

Is it true Rush suffers terrible nightmares about being a popular, successful, happy multi-millionaire?

[jayfly83]

reminds me of Wayne's World 2 where wayne and garth are talking to handsome dan and he isn't listening and garth says "you're a freak with a microphone...."

why do conservatives dislike liberals so much? and vice versa? anybod feel free to interject an opinion...I'm just looking for clarity

[teneo315]

I find that liberals are more likely to bash particular conservative ideologies, whereas conservatives are likely to simply bash liberals in general. On the whole, though, I typically find conservatives to be more bellicose; it's as if they think some war is going in which the fate of the universe is at stake.

[hiredgoons10]

Amazing how accurately media maters can identify and deconstruct the conservative echo chamber/noise and propaganda machine, and then so blatantly take part in the democratic equivalent. Not helping their cause

[Metagg]

wow, this man doesn't even get simple facts straight. I'm really speechless, I guess pigs can fly now.

[njpat65]

People...this is PROPAGANDA. Don't be brainwashed by these people.

[SinCityMadman]

I hope Rush Limbaugh is The "Leader for Conservatives" that ensures w/o a doubt that the GOP is a joke and also ensures w/o a doubt that 2012 will bring another landslide for the Dems. Thus, making the GOP philosophy a completely obsolete system of ideas.

[grapestew]

yea lets have a 1 party system you blind fucking idiot.

[SinCityMadman]

Think b4 you type...there are Green Party, and the Indy Party amoung others...a recent poll, said most repubs are over 40old grumpy men like Rush...they'll die off soon enough. Once the repubs have gone to the back seat given the recent follies of GWB amoung others another Party will step up to challenge the Dems, it will not be a one party system so calm down e-thug LMAO at you

[EpicDude86]

Nigga you crazy.

[dkkght]

MSNBC asked more than 73,000 respondents, "If you were grading Barack Obama on his performance as president, what would he get?" More than half of all respondents or 57 percent gave Obama an "F." Only 19 percent said the president has earned an "A," while 7.9 percent gave him a "B," 5.4 percent answered a "C" and 11 percent said he has earned a "D."

Rush may be a modern day prophet!

[dantheleo]

Rush Limbaugh is NOT the leader of the Republican Party. He is the most popular voice of the Conservative Party. It is a sad day for American that this kind of garbage started and coming out of the White House when our country is in serious trouble. As if there was not more important things to deal with but Obama doesn't seem to think so with these foolish tricks. This clearly shows Obama is not the man to fix Americas problems, he is just adding to them!

[GODSoneandonlySON]

It was a sad Day in america, when People started defering to Rush to lead the GOP. You can SAY, Rush isn't the leader, but that does not make it so. If you remember OPERATION CAOS, hundreds of Dittoheads went out and voted for Hillary, in an attempt to thwart an early winnin the primaries for Barrack. Rush took a leadership role, it was not forced on him. So you try to protect Rush from himself, He's the one that will ultimately do himself in, just like his footbal job.

[smeejay]

Lush RimJob=OxyMoron!

[charadester]

A legend in his own mind. He had a chance to speak to all Americans. Instead, he held a pep rally with the choir. If Limbaugh makes such a fundamental error this early in the effort, it is clear that he's already drunk with his own popularity and gives not a hoot about the welfare of anyone else..conservative or liberal. Power intoxicates, and this man is already faced. The only thing more disturbing is that a significant throng is chanting "We're not worthy" to him. Laughable lemmings.

[JacksonToby]

Repubs going down in flames.

[y2knoproblem]

Repubs going down in flames.

[beckpod1]

Rush = Joe the Plummer

[evo8herrm]

"IF YOU HAVE A RADIO TALK SHOW HOST PUSHING YOUR PARTIES AGENDA YOU HAVE A PROBLEM AS A PARTY"- Dbag politico scum

So we need Rush behind CNN and MSNBC not public radio waves?

[jane5457]

To technichic...Thank God so far I am still Free....and I dont have to....Dont know how much longer but for now I will enjoy My right and My freedom,without some Nut telling me what to do thank you....

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Contrast that with 62% approval for Obama. Seams like the same 62% that don't like Rush. Hmmm. Let's face it, it sucks to back a losing horse(not commenting on Rush's weight), but you guy's are backing him.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Does anyone see the Hypocracy, of a self professed drug user controling the GOP? Rush has a 33% favorable rating. That's lower than any other Journalist in a research poll. Let him talk, he just digs a deeper hole for his party. he picked Bush, and look what that got us. Bigger defecits, and 4,000+ soldiers dead. yeah, Rush is Great, Great at getting his own ass out of trouble, and his party and country into it.

[Plutonwolf]

Especially a drug abuser who screamed for draconian treatment of absolutely anyone who was involved in drug abuse of any kind and he frequently waxed eloquent on the subject. Shows you the depth of the well of hypocrisy they draw from.  I'd say that sucker is damn near bottomless.

[callmap]

Son - source your Rush rating please.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

However, public polls have shown that a majority of Americans have an unfavorable opinion of Limbaugh. For example, in a March 2007 Rasmussen Reports poll, 62% of those surveyed had an unfavorable opinion of Limbaugh, while only 33% had a favorable opinion, a nearly 2 to 1 ratio that was, by far, the worst among the 18 journalists and media personalities included in the poll. [146]

Does that pretty much do it for ya. Wikipedia is awesome!

[callmap]

Thanks Son! Try using updated figures though - that poll is over a year old. Regardless, the guy must be someone to fear. After all your President seems awfully obsessed with him lately. Hmmm.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Oh you're right, Rush has only gotten more popular. Rush is carismatic guy, and weak minded people tend to follow carismatic people. Jim Jones, Adolf Hitler, David Karesh, lennon and many more thoughout history. Did we need to fear those men? Had someone had the balls to stand up to Hitler, would that have been good? I'm not saying Rush is Hitler, just pointing out that just because a person has a folloing, doesn't mean that person is as great as he may think he is.

[callmap]

Great point Son! Brilliant job describing the uneducated, blind sheep that voted for the Messiah Obama.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

That's it? That's all you got? the fact that TWICE as many people approve of Obama over Rush, proves that america is moving away from conservitism, and toward the light of knowledge, Thank ME.

The earth is round, and BILLIONS of years old. And dinosaurs existed, and EVOLVED

[callmap]

Son, please put down the hash pipe for a few minutes. It's seriously helping to screw up your logic! America is far from moving away from conservAtism....just wishful thinking on your part. Watch how alive the conservatives become as this kid that's in over his head, continues to run our country into the ground. The sleeping giant is waking!

[Plutonwolf]

I'm sorry, but the retarded kid has gone back to Texas to clear some more brush...gotta keep the brush clear so he can see if any of those mean old horsies that scare him so much are sneaking up on him.

Now, if you are referring to Obama, who knows if even the mythical Jesus could do a miracle big enough to rectify the mess he had handed to him by the Texas Horse Dreader. Two ill planned wars, fiscal idiocy on a galactic scale and a badly decayed infrastructure. Reagan would be proud of W.

[callmap]

pukinwolf - You'll be begging for some Bush when all of the damage Obama has racked up in a mere 2 months, has run its course. Hmmm, spending that totals more in his short tenure than was created since our country was founded...there's your fiscal idiocy, idiot.

[Plutonwolf]

Aww, what's the matter balllap, tit still in a twist because Johhny McJetwrecker crashed and burned once again? Where was all of this fiscal concern when shrubby was running two wars on the cuff? Where was all this fiscal concern when, for the first time EVER, the chumpmander in cheap decided that cutting taxes during a time of war was a GOOD idea?

Mostly, where was the concern when a serial failure at running businesses was elected? Fuck me, he LOST money as an oil man in TEXAS! Damn!?!?

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Really?, the last 4 presidents. were in no way conservative. Just cause you SAY you're pro-life, means you ARE pro-life, I know of at least 4,000 americans, that would still be alive today, if Bush wasn't Prez. And yes, I hope the GOP as we know it, goes away. I hope that somebitch wakes up, he's been sleepy for a while.

[callmap]

And I know of at least 3,000 American's that would be alive today if one certain President would have paid more attention protecting his country than disrespecting his office with his crotch...

[GODSoneandonlySON]

So, you don't use your penis. The difference is, Terrorists killed our people, Bush got ours killed. BTW Reagan just gave them weapons, he didn't tell them wher to use them, you see, Clinton didn't start the fire, the fire was burning long before he took office.

[TrollBuster5000]

and Bush tried to put out the fire with gasoline and kindling. have we ever had a more retarded president? I dont think so. not unless Forrest Gump snuck in there somehow.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

The nice thing about Forrest is, He fought when the country asked.

[callmap]

Yeah, and you'd go stick your dick in your mouth and cry like a little baby.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

I could stick my dick in my mouth(have you been talking to your mom), but for that reason I don't cry like a baby

[Plutonwolf]

Unlike Bush who went AWOL during a time of conflict. Isn't that a court martial offense punishable by execution?

[GODSoneandonlySON]

only if a court can find you have the ability to understand the offence, or if you have an IQ above 40. Bush is safe.

[jayfly83]

hahahahahahaha nice one.

[callmap]

Son - Regarding the penis comment - works just fine, I guess I don't go whoring around like you do.  Typical lib comment. Thank God you weren't alive when Pearl Harbor was struck....pansy ass!

[GODSoneandonlySON]

I didn't say it didn't work, I said you don't use it. If by whoring you mean finding Women to satisfy me, you're right, you don't go whoring.----- DAD

[Plutonwolf]

Oh, you have GOT to be shitting us, right? Who was the president on 9/11? WHO? Don't give me that bull shit that he was still new while you puke out shit about Obama not doing enough in his first month you two faced jack ass. That piece of shit traitor was warned repeatedly and he chose to IGNORE the warnings!

Look folks, this asshole is why we can NEVER allow the Reps to return to power till they clean house. This one needs to go back and learn how to use crayons inside the lines!

[callmap]

Puken - Need to brush up on your history my son. Come back and see me in a few years after you graduate from high school (if you're even able to do that).

[Plutonwolf]

So, you are so damn delusional (or completely full of shit) that you think Clinton was the President when 9/11 happened? Where you involved in Army LSD experiments? I know that you shills are desperately trying to revise history, but try to remember (if your micro encephalitic brain can do that) to take baby steps when attempting to rewrite history.

[jane5457]

Finally some one who puts it as it should be only difference is names Rush/ obama sounds like the same person...really think....think..what is what people say about obama you just discribed it......wacth what you wish for this time around I think were all going to get it...want it or not...we will not have a choice....

[grapestew]

I was going to say Hitler would have been a mortal enemy of rush. Hitler was a National Socialist way to the Left

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Try wikipedia, and THEN talk shit.

The Nazis had parts of both the left, and right political spectrum's, but MOST of their alliance's were on the right The left, wouldn't invade a country rof NO reason. The left wouldn't herd group

s of people into ovens, they don't even like the death penalty.

LImbaugh, is not much different than hitker. He's smart, and can talk people into just about anything

[technicschic]

Yes, that poll is over a year old - THAT is why they are trying to paint Rush as the GOP leader - new polls show him at 11% popularity - therefore if Rush IS the GOP, it can only get better for the Dems - THAT is why the discussion is occuring, not because a drug-addicted, homophobic, racist, delusional old fart like Rush is anything to "fear".

[grapestew]

problem is all these people polled don't listen to him they just get what his enemies in the media tell him. I would be for any party that preaches small government, self responsibility and eliminating half of the gov cheese

[Joeybsmooth]

@grapestew

So I take you are not for the GOP.

[jane5457]

You do know our pres did a little cocaine...by his words not mine...and other drugs READ his book I have....So wacth out for glass houses sometimes the rocks thrown come back......

[GODSoneandonlySON]

My problem isn't with what rush did, it's with the hypocracy. You can't rail and bitch at the top of your lungs, that dreug USERS should go to jail. Then get caught, accept help, from the ACLU and not atone. I think the fact that Obama did drugs, is a good thing, it makes him human. Rush is trying so hard to make us think he's above human thoughts and feelings, he now has an image problem, called hypocracy. DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO. GOP motto.

[jane5457]

No the reason is he said he did it...and got it out because he knew he was going to run for pres...and that way he just excused it as expiermenting...and if it did come out he could just push it aside as no big deal..which he really had no trouble at all the media bought and paid for him.....remember one thing...ITS NOT WHO YOU ARE... ITS WHAT YOU ARE.......

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Barrack wrote the books before he knew he was going yo run. He also said that he did it in his college years, Rush did his in his40's/50's. He didn't have to worry about it coming out, HE told us. Are you now saying, that it would have been better if Barrack had lied? Rush, only brought it up, when he knew we would find out. He even tried to stop it from coming out, by sueing. The fact that he did not go to jail, proves that it's Who you are, not what you are.

[jane5457]

You for sure have ISSUES with RUSH ...so your thinking takes a turn now and again ..I dont have ISSUES with Obama or Rush facts are facts.....Just that BOTH DID IT..AND THAT IS FACT WHEN WHERE OR WHY IS BESIDES THE POINT.......both have different Ideas...the thing is we ALL dont have to agree to everything they say We are after all our own person we can think for ourselfs, we dont need anybody to tell us what is right and it goes for both of THEM>>>>>>

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Can I get a big Ditto for that.  We don't have to all agree, we just have to come together to fix OUR nations problems. That will be much harder to do , if the likes of Rush Limbaugh, and his DITTOHEADS, stand in the way. You said it sister!

[degraves2003]

I have no delussions, I have issues with Rush. Fact Rush is a racist. I've heard every single comment he has every said about us "big lip" black folks. He is the only person that would blame a rape victim for being rape. None of that is funny nor entertaining and if he can't see why he should be off the air. Rush is an indecent human being. Why anybody would listen to him is beyond me.

[grapestew]

I have never heard him say such a thing please provide proof of this. you no evidence not something you think you might have heard

[degraves2003]

Limbaugh called a Duke rape victim a "ho" unprompted because he was "running on fumes". Both racist and sexist at the same time.

[jayfly83]

that's why I thought he rocked. No bullshit...he straight up said "I inhaled....that was the point..."

at least he didn't pull that "i did not inhale..." crap.....lol

[ralphdjeeper]

Go Rush, Liberal's are making Hell on earth.

[4951WEDDEL]

Tell me, what is wrong with a radio talk show host "driving the agenda"? Does anyone honestly think that those in Washington are the only one's with answers? How about dealing with the substance of Rush's speech? How about answering the questions he asked?

[darwinx0101]

i think limbaugh and joe the plumber should run in 2012.

rush will get his debate, 3 of them for that matter...

the the country will get another 4 years of obama.

everyone wins.

[beckpod1]

To think...republicans vote for republican politicians who let a talk show host do their thinking! They are in some serious denial...and I bet someone is going to try and tell me that Rush is the WAY!

Rush is actually someone who makes Sarah Palin look smart!

Republican party is the Mickey mouse party of the new century....Ditto Heads..lets all sing...who's the leader of the club who thinks for you and me..RUSH...LIM...BAUGH..very sad..very sad!

[therealcaptobvious]

i dunno. let's not forget the party that allows Code Pink to do their talking for them. Or interrupt neighbors' sleep by blasting NPR to the wee hours of the morning, causing poor bystandards to hear "evil Bush" in our dreams.

Oh... who was out there protesting the bailout? Code Pink, that's who. Not your "representatives". They're both dramaqueens and they're doing better than our Congress. Shall I say more?

[Plutonwolf]

Too bad the implosion of the Repugnantcon party had to take place AFTER they managed to destroy our economy.

[jane5457]

REPUBLICAN........

[technicschic]

Yes, technically the name of one of the parties is the "Republican" party, but the name of the other party is also the DEMOCRATIC (not Democrat) party, so start saying it.

[Plutonwolf]

Exactly. And until that foolishness stops with the supposed high leadership of their party...including senators and congressmen and a certain ex president and his entire staff, I will let my imagination run free.

BTW, they pronounce it as democRAT party. How adorable.

[technicschic]

Don't know if you've checked out fivethirtyeight(dot) com before, but they had a great discussion about this very thing - how are Republicans going to show that they want to be bipartisan when they can't even show respect for the name of the opposing party?

[callmap]

Tech - This bipartisan shit is for the birds. Screw bipartisanship. If I'm a politician, I go out there and support and respresent the folks that voted for me. Fuck the rest and what they think, regardless if I'm a DemocRAT or Repubelican.

[GODSoneandonlySON]

Here, Here, I feel the same, Fuck the GOP, WE won.

[Th1mastermike]

Yes, think so too. We tried the republicans ideas. Did I want George Bush to fail? No. Did I think he was going to fail? Yes. Just not this badly. I can't believe even George W. Bush screwed up this badly.

[technicschic]

callmap - Alright, put party ahead of country and see where that gets you - by the way, the "folks that voted for [you]" are more focused on actually getting things done than partisanship. As Godsoneandonlyson says, though, if Repubs want to get in the way of getting this country back together, screw 'em.

[Plutonwolf]

I think balllap is a paid shill. There was a ton of them before the election that just went poof afterwards, but I see a lot of old familiar trollish faces crawling out of the woodwork. Problem for them is the fact that they are in the position the Greeks were at Thermopylae, but unlike the Spartans, they are more like F Troop or a gaggle of Gomer Pyles.  It's almost too easy to gut them anymore, but hey, someone has to do it.

[Plutonwolf]

They have no interest in bi partisanship, they, in their inimitably stupid wont, probably think that bipartisanship is some sort of deviant sexual kink.

It was a rather magnanimous gesture by Obama to invite them into the process after the way the Repubs have acted so unilaterally over the years when they held the whip hand. Remember the dems being forced to hold meeting in the basement as they tried to deal with the Iraq war? Now THAT was the Reps idea of bi-part., sad, wasn't it?

[technicschic]

Yep, it was a magnanimous gesture by Obama to reach out, but he's a smart politician as well - he's not going to cower in the corner and make unnecessary compromises just for the sake of appearing bipartisan.

[Plutonwolf]

Think of it as getting unpleasant obligations out of the way from the start and then, down to the real job.

[callmap]

technic - go back to school. It's DEMOCRAT.

[technicschic]

The official name of the party is the Democratic Party (singular), to be used when you are talking about the party or officials of that party. If you are just talking about them in general, it can be Demcrats (general), but it is only the Democrat Party in Limbaugh's oxycontin-riddled mind.

[jane5457]

Thank god I am still FREE, and I choose not to.......

[technicschic]

True, you can choose not to, but that just shows what an immature whiny baby you are.

[jane5457]

No just shows some things are more IMPORTANT than others that is all.....everyone knows nancy is the true leader .....aka The Boss....

[angrykeyboarder]

Pathetic much?
