Rush said that Hubert Humphrey was basically a conservative based on listening to what he said from today’s vantage point.

"Rush said that Hubert Humphrey was basically a conservative based on listening to what he said from today's vantage point."

Rush says that about JFK, also.

Makes no difference to me....a rose by any other name still has injurious thorns.

Conservative Democrat leaders further the socialist cause just by being Democrats and working for their party. I judge all Democrats by what they do, not what they say for public consumption.

Humphrey served five terms in the Senate. He was an ardent New Dealer. As Veep he was a fervent enabler of LBJ's Great Leap Forward, er....Great Society. During his career he was known as the leading "Progressive" (translated: liberal socialist Democrat hack) in American life.

Rush cherry-picks excerpts from old JFK and HHH speech tapes that make them both sound like conservatives.

No way, Jose.

At that time, HHH also drove the commies out of the DFL. Now they’re baaaaaaaack. Also Pro-2A as to its original purpose.
