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

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...

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.

That's it.

Rashputin speaks:

Like the WWI generals who were in a cold sweat over the German breakthrough in France, the Republican establishment can't think past the decades of trench warfare where gaining and losing a few yards was what it was all about. They can't even conceive of breaking the fascist democrat party into pieces and then destroying it completely. Look at how they reacted to Reagan and how they handled the impeachment of Clinton. They're so used to the old battle lines that that can't consider victory, only temporary gains they can make to use for the equivalent of prisoner exchanges.

It's time to stop thinking that the sixty years of fascist majorities in Congress were the norm because the democrat fascist party is too strong to defeat. We have to destroy the fascist democrat party as a national political force and we have to do it NOW!

The democrat party is now and always has been the party of slavery, sedition, treason, secession, civil war, KKK terrorism, Jim Crow laws, eugenics laws, constant voter fraud, constant voter intimidation, anti-Semitic immigration restrictions (in response to Nazi Nuremberg laws), advocates of titles of nobility for protected classes of citizens who are above the law, creators of anti-Christian mythology, creators of the welfare plantation system, advocates of infanticide and euthanasia as well as being the party that designed, implemented, and fights to lavishly fund the systematic, eugenics driven, mass murder of minority infants. The democrat party has to be so thoroughly destroyed as a national political party that it is no longer a factor in national politics. Refusing to support less than pure alternatives over a pet peeve, sitting out elections, or doing anything that keeps you from helping or influences others to not help rid ourselves of these parasites while we're force fed democrat arsenic, is either deliberate democrat supporting fifth column activity or your personal agreement that we should commit national suicide. The entire democrat machine, including both government employee unions and the democrat academic rewards and propaganda infrastructure needs to be fought until, to paraphrase Bull Halsey, “ ... democrat is only spoken in hell”.

JMHO

WELL SAID. Let all of us remember that wisdom.

“Cain won’t make it past the spotlight”

Don’t be so sure about that - he’s made of tough stuff.

[Quix]

Wellllllll, !DOH! Rush! You just now waking up to that fact?

When did you move to Yorba Linda?

OF COURSE the other side of the Marxist, tyrannical, satanic globalists’ coin do not want conservatives, Christians, Constitutionalists to run for the Presidency!

That would sabotage their charade wholesale.

[Quix]

INDEED.

I was saddened to read yesterday where evidently Herman Cain had headed a sub-unit of the Federal R?

Sigh.

The propagandist manipulators have foisted a cluster of ‘conservatives’ on the ‘SElectorate’

who have virtually all just wandered by a conservative hot-dog stand to briefly take on a slight smell of conservatism long enough to continue the charade.

May God have mercy on us all.

[Quix]

ABSOLUTELY INDEED.

It’s been merely two sides of the same coin . . . a good-cop/bad-cop charade for decades. At least 6 decades.

[Quix]

I’m increasingly convinced that the soonest that can happen is by Christ at the literal Armageddon—looming closer and closer on the not at all distant horizon.

[Quix]

Yet quite in keeping with the same mentality

that would not fully pardon those two border guards and instead put them through years of unwarranted suffering and imprisonment when they were more patriotic than the ones making decisions about their lives because they were doing their patriotic jobs!

GRRRR

[McGavin999]

So then, you don’t believe in the US Constitution, right? Because if you did, there is that little 10th amendment thingy that you are so willing to toss out the window.

[llandres]

“the narrative today was look how cute RINO Chris Christie is...all day on every Fox show....Christie etc etc.”

FNC devoted quite a bit of time today talking about Herman Cain. Bret Baier in particular kept on extolling him, to the point of getting some gentle teasing by the panel.

[kevao]

there is that little 10th amendment thingy that you are so willing to toss out the window.

Please cite the *exact* words I wrote that would even suggest that I would "toss out the window" the 10th Amendment. I look forward to it....

[McGavin999]

Just read your post! The people of Texas decided and he signed. You opposing it means you do not believe states have the rights to determine their own laws.

And as to whether or not he supports it or not doesn't matter at all. As Governor he is a SERVANT of the people. That's why he backed off the Guardisil thing because the people didn't want it.

Exactly what part of the people of Texas decided this was the best solution to a problem they have been experiencing don't you understand. All but 4 legislators voted for it. That is a veto proof majority. This was passed in 2001 and there have been lots of elections since then and the people have not asked that it be reversed. It is THEIR 10th amendment right to determin what they do with their own tax money.

Oh, and BTW, Texas requires 3 years of residency before they are eligible, there are 38 other states that don't even require that, but you don't seem to care about that.

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

The Bush family, Karl Rove, guys like Dennis Hastert, Tom Delay, James Baker, going back, folks like Bob Dole, and Trent Lott. In todays GOP, folks like Mitch McConnell, and John Bohner.

The establishment wing, are pros, they are the leadership, and they are not going to let a bunch of outsiders take their party away. Note, that these guys refer to the Tea Party as "them", not "us".

As for Hermain Cain, he has rock solid establishment credentials, but no governing background. He looks more like a vessel to me, in that he can say anything he wants, there is no proof he would actually deliver. His background includes being on the board of directors for the KC FED, then being chairman of that board, then being the senior economic advisor to Bob Doles presidential campaign, not exactly anti-establishment.

[kevao]

Just read your post! The people of Texas decided and he signed. You opposing it means you do not believe states have the rights to determine their own laws.

Once again, please *cite* the exact words I wrote that suggest I want to "toss the 10th Amendment overboard". Why can't you simply do that after claiming I said it?

And now please cite the *exact* words I wrote that supports your claim that I oppose what the people of Texas decided.

I said Perry is screwed because he either believes on principle what Texas decided, or he supports it merely because it's popular in Texas.

But where in the world -- and I want a freaking *citation* -- did I say Texas did not have the right to do what it did, or the 10th Amendment should be trashed?

Why is it impossible for you to cite what I said? You claim I said these things, so SHOW ME WHERE!!! Don't summarize what I said, don't paraphrase what I said -- cite my exact words that you claim I said.

[ChiMark]

Sorry Carly, Perry is broken. He'd fail on a H.S. debating team. He blew it... clumsy, inept. It's doubtful whether he can recover from 2 poor debate apperances

The Republican Establishment includes "OLD KENOSHA MONEY" ~ and they already have the RNC Chairman's job tied down tight as a drum.

You do remember their peeps on FR trashing Mr. Steele, right?

That was the work of the Republican Establishment ~ making sure NO CONSERVATIVE could possibly get the nomination, or if nominated, get the funds to run for President.

I wish Rush would put names to these things sometimes ~ here we have a crowd that's convinced many it's Conservative, and yet they want a Romney.

[muawiyah]

Michael Steele was your last best hope to have an RNC Chairman who was flexibile enough in his thinking to NOT be against having a real Conservative candidate. The folks running the RNC Senatorial campaign were arguably totally Establishment.

The campaign here at FR against Steele was literally the voice of the Establishment. They are able to reach out and attempt to throttle Conservative voices even on FR.

I've been calling them the "Old Kenosha Money" crowd. Folks often forget that used to be antipodal to Detroit ~ and actually still is. This is the industrial establishment in Wisconsin ~ which still exists. The stockholders and bondholders haven't been shipped off to China and Brazil. Mitt Romney's taxpreparers know who they are, as does Preibus, as does Walker, as does, in fact Mitch Daniels.

These guys are plenty enough Republican, but they cannot be trusted to defend Conservative principles or candidates.
