Michael Medved has hurled the ultimate insult at Rush Limbaugh -- that he's acting like a liberal. According to Medved, Rush is thinking with his emotions, not his mind, when it comes to his criticism of of John McCain.

McCain supporter Medved appeared on Tucker Carlson's MSNBC show this evening.

Naturally Medved loves Shamnesty McCain. He’s another open borders traitor.

Wasn’t the last Senator-President elected in 1960, nearly 50 years ago? The public is disinclined to elect insiders to the Top Dog post.

Well, whether it's McCain, Obama, or Clinton, it's going to be a Senator.

(Pinging Dick Cheney.)

Medved has known the Clintons since they were at Yale Law together. He has a horror of them getting back in the White House that has driven him to embrace McCain as the electable Republican who can stop them. It’s becoming a form of derangement. And I just voted for Romney in the California primary, absentte ballot.

Romney is not a senator.

I respect a lot of what Michael Medved speaks for day to day. On this issue, I respectfully and vehemently disagree with him.

Ditto. But his prospects are looking a little grim for Super Tuesday.

More than one gnat has tried to use Rush’s fame & name to advance his career.

Gnats are for flicking off - if you happen to notice them and feel like lifting your finger.

MICHAEL MEDVED: “Well they’re acting like liberals, and I know that’s a terrible thing to say about people I like and respect — I have great respect for Rush. But he’s acting like a liberal on this.”

Translation: The GOP elite had no problem with Rush when he was carrying their water, and and helped persuade many of the Conservatives they were Sh*tting on to keep voting GOP. But since he’s sided with the principles of Conservatism over GOP political BS..He’s acting like a “insert bad name here”.

Who’s acting like a Liberal Michael?? Like having no substance to your point and resorting to personal jibes..HMM??

Hey maybe if your lucky Rush will mention you on his show tomorrow, and you’ll get some real attention. Seeing as you said this on MSNBC, the only Conservative who heard you was Tucker..and they pay him to be there. Not that your snow job would work anyway..We know McCain isn’t a Conservative. But many of us may still consider voting for him, because of the abomination of a Dem President, and he’d make a better C in C then any of the Dem traitors. Keep pissing on our backs and tell us its raining, and that may not hold true come November. The GOP ascended to power on Conservative principles. They lost it acting like Republicans...Show some respect, the Conservatives have been carrying your sorry asses for two decades..and you’ll need us to do so in November.

Is Medved turning into another Savage? Boycott the bozo.

I’ll be glad to dub Medved the expert on what constitutes a “liberal”

Medved lost me on immigration. He basically called anyone who wanted borders a racist, just like McCain.

Chances are good the choice will be between McCain and Obama or Hillary - all three Senators.

Well, looks like this year will be different since it looks like the top 3 candidates (Obama, Clinton & McCain) are all US Senators.

Dear Rush:
I know that you or your staff are freepers.
I know that there is a chance that you’ll read this.
You are right.
They are wrong.
It is time for the Republican party to stand or fall based on their own merits.
You said after the 2006 election that you would no longer carry water for the Republican party. They were warned.
By the next election you will have the right to say, “I told you so.”
McInsane is Hillary Lite. If the Republicans choose him as their candidate, they deserve to be destroyed.

PS: Stop accepting callers that complain about you not backing their candidate. They’re childish and boring.

Conservative Elites, Country Club Conservatives, etc. I really used to like Medved, he’s so knowledgeable on so many subjects. Here he's really wrong. He's probably not as conservative as he claims. I really disliked his stand on the McShamnesty Bill.
