"But I'm such a handsome bonehead."

To make matters worse the last Rush show I listened to he said during Hillary's victory speech in New Hampshire that she was sexy. I believe Rush said that three times......
As a lifelong GOP supporter, I thought it would be a good idea to become a 24/7 Rush Limbaugh subscriber so I could listen to his daily shows at a later date. I thought this would allow me to get some real coverage on all of the GOP's candidates. I thought Rush would provide some fair reporting on all the GOP candidates that the major networks fail to do. Boy was I mistaken.
After listening to Rush for about week, my first impression of Rush was that he is an arrogant know it all. And very well paid I might add. I thought maybe I needed to give him more time before making that judgment against him.
As the weeks passed by I kept hearing Rush say that he will not pick a GOP candidate in the primaries. However, it became apparent that he is a Romney supporter. Every chance he gets he attacks McCain and Huckabee. Rush claims that McCain and Huckabee are not true conservatives.
From my listening experience thus far, The Limbaugh Show is nothing more than Rush reporting disinformation. After a recent GOP debate, Rush went on the attack against McCain on the immigration issue. Rush claimed McCain got hammered on the issue and implied that McCain was for amnesty. Talking about disinformation, Rush was reporting a complete lie to all his listeners. I hope all Rush's listeners saw the same debate. McCain said that his first action as President would be to close all the borders with Mexico. The true McCain policy is first to stop the flow of illegal immigrants and then address the illegal immigrants in the U.S. now in a humane way. That seems like a logical plan to take.
Then there is Romney who at the same debate said when he is President he will throw out all of the illegal immigrants without first addressing the immediate problem of stopping the flow from Mexico. On this day Rush was the foot soldier for Romney. It was this day that I lost my trust in anything that comes out of Rush's mouth.
The real reason that Rush finds it easy to attack McCain and Huckabee is because the two men have not kissed up to Rush. Both campaigns have already said things that have upset the big guy's ego.
To make matters worse the last Rush show I listened to he said during Hillary's victory speech in New Hampshire that she was sexy. I believe Rush said that three times.
Paul Craft you are tone deaf. I bet your wife tells you all the time when you are singing at church. Honey, you’re off key. Well, honey, you’re off the mark by a hundred miles in regards to Rush.
"But I'm such a handsome bonehead."
Let Rush do his thing and don’t question him. He knows what he’s doing.
Bull$hit!
McCain reiterated that his previous plan (amnesty) was a good one, but the people have spoken and want border security first, which he promised to do. The real story, however, is that after securing the border, he still wants amnesty, albeit thru a convoluted definition.
Bleech...I thought that was Huckabubba before he put on his make-up.
writer is a Huckabee supporter, he doesn’t like that word “sexy”
I’d love to see the DNA results from those two. That lip...
Rush is a great talker. But he is wrong on most of his predictions. I remember in the Dole campaign, he reassured all of his listeners that Dole would surely win. Mike Huckabee is a remarkable guy who has a real shot of restoring faith in the Republican party after scandals and big spending.
Who is Paul Craft? I think he needs to go into another line of work, something he understands a little better.
OMG! Rush has not only gone deaf, he’s gone blind too!!!
It only matters what Hillary thinks of Janet & Donna, not what they think of her.
Oh so true. Rush has humor that goes beyond simple minds full of mush..
I have been a Rush fan for a long time, but over the last couple of weeks I have beeen very disappointed in his attacks on Republicans in the primary. He vowed not to take sides, but after his attacks, it is obvious who he is for. What I don’t understand is how he could cut a guy like Romney so much slack given Romney’s very liberal record in Massachusetts. He also made it apparent he likes Thompson, but that’s like trying to ride a dead horse. Rush has been very “un Rush” the last couple of weeks and I have no idea why.
The author has not listened long enough to actually get to know Rush... and does not understand that he is judging McCain on his record, not what he says at a debate. I have voted for him for Senator quite a few times now, but have also written letters telling him he voted the wrong way on many issues too. That said, I do think he heard the American peoples position on immigration and has actually changed his stance on it accordingly.
If it is McCain against Obama or Hitlery... he will have my support, but is going to have to make it to the General on his own.
BTW, interestingly enough, my Mother-in-law (From upstate NY) who has voted Democrat all her life says the same thing to my wife last time they talked, She would vote McCain over anyone the Dems are running, but he is the only Republican she could support.
“Haven’t you ever wanted to have angry sex with someone you hate?”
You know, now that I think about it....NO I have not.
It stems from the criticism levied by Ed Rollins, et al. Huckabubba is no conservative much less a Republican. I agree with Rush. Not only is the White House at stake but, to a greater degree, the conservative movement. There is no true Reagan conserative among the current group of candidates. We can not allow the current group of candidates much less the msm to redefine what conservatism is. Do not doubt Rush....
Wonder what he’d think of Bill Buckley if he read some of his work?
Okay. Now, if it comes down to Huck, Mc Cain and Rudy, what do we all do? Sit on our hands and let Obama or Hillary move into the White House and take a Dem. majority in Congress along?
No. And I disagree with you on your positition of advocacy for marijuana usage.
Perhaps you ought to refrain from bong hits prior to posting...
