Every FReeper needs to listen to this. A mom. Passionate. One of the best callers to Rush. Maybe ever.

Best call ever on Rush, I doubt it. And yes, I heard it. Kind of rambling.
Crosslink to another thread on the same topic.

Apologies to the forum.
She spoke without a net/telepromter. For my money, there was ‘nothing but net’ in this conversation.
She was so captivating. I was ready to make a cell phone call, and I decided to stop just to keep listening to her. And even Rush, as smart as he is, stopped talking and he just her continue talking, all the way to the bottom of the hour break. She ended the break, without a word from Rush. She was dynamite! One of the best ever, imo. Very very articulate. If you did not hear this, it is well worth your time.
Moderate in the middle
Not to mention she wanted Rush/Palin to run in 2010 and thought Pelosi was a Senator for starters. She didn’t have much of a clue and had to be reminded about the Tea Parties by Rush when she said no one is doing anything.
Rambling — absolutly. Actually I didn’t think it was a good call at all because she went on and on and didn’t pay attention to Rush when he tried to get her on track.
I thought it was over the top from someone who doesn’t understand elections or Government and what can be done. Sitting at home getting upset does nothing.
Personally I would like confirmation she was legit.
Rush has this up on his free site for all:
“Susan in Glendale, California: Her Passion Speaks for Millions
September 30, 2009”

Yeah, I can dig it! I wonder if someone set Rush up on this one. And the leftists will be laughing at how the Freepers lapped it ALL up!

That was my first thought! Conservatives get really mad — conservatives don’t cry like this. It seemed put on to me and after talking with several other people in other states, they agree it was over the top.
Most conservatives I know don’t call up with pity all of us — we get mad and do something even if it is picking up the phone and calling our members of Congress.
If I was on the radio, I would be spitting nails at the Dems and I would certainly know that there is no Presidential election in 2010. Before I ever called, I made notes in the past.
This was a strange call IMHO. Can you imagine what the leftists are saying? I was irritated if she was a conservative to be acting like that.
Confirmation would be nice.
The 2010 issue was corrected in the course of the conversation, but you’re correct about some incocsistencies.
While I hear what you are saying, sometimes people do cry when they’re angry. This woman reminded me of my own dear sainted mother, who did the same.
I’m not sure what it says about me- but I was not able to listen to the entire call- got half way through the second tape and just had enough. I wasn’t inspired or moved. It could be though- that she reminds me of a very liberal friend of mine who can’t discuss anything political without dramatic weeping...
My socialist congresscritter sure isn’t listening to any conservative voices.........he worships at zero’s altar. He’s in a safe district, it will remain dem even if the nut case former mayor of Memphis is running against him, he’s a dem too, and another worshiper of zero.
Yes, I’m not as happy with Susan as some here might be, either. It’s interesting that we’re all women and we have issues with it. As a conservative woman I like to think I’m better than the liberals (especially those super-weak vegan aging hippies dripping patchouli oil and flop sweat) who blubber and get emotion in the way of solid thinking about what needs to be done.
What is weird to me is that usually Rush (rightly) talks about how emotional liberals are and why it gets in the way of them having a good grasp of the facts. Yet here he’s encouraging Susan to be hysterical. It just doesn’t seem like a good idea.
bump fer later.
bump for later.
She was reading my mind.
Odd, wasn’t it? That’s not to say I haven’t shed some tears as I’ve watched the changes taking place in our country- because I have and likely will again. Normally though- my reaction is seething anger and a kind of profound disbelief.
Maybe it’s my age- my impatience with fleeting emotions is decidely less than it was when I had them all the time :)
Not sure if it’s the woman thing- on occasion I’ve been moved listening to Palin, Bachman- even Megyn Kelly.
These moms are also well aware of the brutal abuse that was hurled at Sarah Palin simply because she has wholesome family values - values like the rest of us normal red-blooded Americans. They see the "world turned upside down" syndrome that is taking place in this country.
