Limbaugh: GOP Establishment "Does Not Want A Conservative Getting The Nomination"

Posted on 09/28/2011 9:18:22 PM PDT by tsowellfan

RUSH LIMBAUGH: My friends, do not doubt me. I know this is going to shock many of you, and maybe disappoint a lot of you. But when you talk about the Republican establishment -- and you've read their pieces today -- you know what I'm talking about: The columnists, the magazine directors, editors, publishers, whatever, they are reaching and searching for a counter to the conservatives. They don't want Herman Cain getting the nomination; they don't want Perry getting the nomination; they don't want Bachmann getting the nomination. The Republican establishment does not want a conservative getting the nomination...

Considering that the GOP are run by a bunch of right-wing Leftists, yes, they do not want a Conservative at all being nominated or elected.

A Leftist by another name (Dem, Socialist, Commie, etc.) is still a Leftist.

The Republican Establishment would vote for Obama over a Bachman or Palin. They all but gave the election to Obama by pushing that uber-Liberal Dem POS McCain on us.

RNC=DNC=RNC=DNC they are the same. They are all friends and all working together. And what they want is status quo at all costs. Even if it means re electing Obama. They are not with us, they are against us.

The RNC is the enemy of the Tea Party and Conservative America. They are Liberals.

FTRNC!

All I care about with any of the candidates is whether or not they are going to help to take down every single piece of crap Obama put into law.

The GOP aren’t leftists, they are merely “ bought and paid for whores “ by the Lobby Establishment.

“So who exactly are these establishment Republicans? Michael Steele? George W. Bush?”
__________________________________________________________________________________________

They are country club Republicans with a “profit interest” in cheap labor illegal aliens and a continual free flow of them into this country.

They know that securing the border... and I mean REALLY
securing the border would prevent the usual employers like,
restaurant chains, hotel chains, construction, and big agriculture from having free access to the illegals that
they love to hire.

Barbara Bush once said that she hoped Sarah Palin would “stay in Alaska.” Now it’s been reported Babs called Chris Christie and urged him to run. Of course, Mrs. Bush is not a major player in the Republican party by any stretch of the imagination, but this is the attitude shared by the inside the Beltway RINO establishment.....”conservatives need not apply.”

If the GOP establishment screws us again in 2012, then it’s time for the TEA Party to become a full-blown political party after the presidential election. Enough is enough.

For Perry to discriminate against out-of-state American citizen college students by granting illegals discounted in-state tuition rates is abominable and despicable, AND heartless treatment of his fellow Americans. Would he be better than Obama or Hillary- of course, but many of the announced Rep. candidates would be better. Perry’s stance on illegals is a deal-breaker to the vast majority of Conservatives, and Freepers...

In State tuition for illegal aliens, his stance of benign neglect about border security.

You lost me here->>his stance of benign neglect about border security

Border security is a federal issue and not the responsibility of the states.

Furthermore, it's very well known that Gov. Perry has requested time and time again that Washington DC send 1000 troops and air support to the border of Texas and Mexico.

The way most of us feel about Romney, I’ve always felt about Perry. I’m not ‘tearing him down’ because I’m falling prey to some media machinations. I’ve been out-spoken against him for a long time.

Until Cain caught fire, I was torn between him and Bachmann. Now, the more I know about Cain, the better I like him.

I’ll write him in if he’s not our nominee.

I won’t vote for Romney or Perry.

If that means that the nation gets another 4 year of pain - good.

In that event, it’ll be obvious that America hasn’t had her butt spanked hard enough to learn. And I’ll take that hurt just like everyone else.

Kristol boosted Palin and then dropped her after she told him to get lost. He’s always looking for some way to worm his way close to the throne. What a snake—Garden of Eden style.
