I haven’t been listening, so I can’t really say.
The reports I’m hearing aren’t that good.
Hahahah the lengths to which some folks are willing to go to try to salvage Rubio being absolutely owned by Christie in the debate is beyond comical.
we listen at work. He’s been non stop defending Rubio, explaining Rubio, Rubio is tea party, Rubio is not establishment, Rubio gang of 8 doesn’t really matter, blah blah. He still doesn’t really get Trump and Trump people, a little bit, but not a lot.
He was never challenged on Obama’s competence, he just kept repeating a memorized line that had nothing to do with what Christie challenged him with, even after Chrisite pointed out exactly what he was doing, he did it again. Rubio is done... Christie laid the trap and even warned Rubio the trap was going to close and Rubio did it again... And snap!!!
Rubio showed he’s a parrot and not ready for prime time.. He’s done
I doubt it. First of all, if Obama really did want to make major changes in the country, he probably feels frustrated at not being able to do so, rather than satisfied at how much he was able to do and how easy it was. His to do list had to have been longer than his list of what he did.
Second, the argument about experience involves experience mellowing politicians, making them less strident and unyielding, and more willing to compromise and try different means to achieve their ends. So if Obama is somebody trying to impose his will in all things on the country, that may have something to do with his general callowness and lack of experience.
If it were just him repeating a line that’d be one thing, but he tried to slip a cheap shot in there too. The guy is a worm.
Doesn’t sound good. I am a member. I should go listen to some of his shows. LOL
Thanks for the explanation. From what you’re saying he is way off base.
Hasn’t Rush always run a bit too close to the GOPe around election time?
He’s been leading an Obama styled amnesty and though the other stuff is true, he himself should not become President.
Christie was trying his damnedest to bully Rubio down, and for the most part, it was working. It is significant that the thrust of the argument that Christie was talking over, was directed at Obama, and the bromance of Christie and Obama just before the 2012 election probably did its part toward the eventual defeat of Romney. Not that Romney was pressing his own case that strongly, however.
Christie had a vested interest in “preserving” the legacy of Obama, and he was blustering his way out the the underlying linkage.
Admittedly, what we saw was a “deer in the headlights” moment for Rubio, which did not make his case, but when confronted with bluster, who among us has not had the instance of discombobulation?
Christie lobbed a live hand grenade. It takes great presence of mind to pick it up and throw it back.
Rush, you are just giving us doublespeak. Rubio is worthless and is not worth listening to anything he says.
So anything he says has no credibility. I used to listen to Rush on my lunch hour, no more. I read the blogs on my phone.
I kinda remember Obama saying 5 days before sworn in office.
I didn't need Rubio repeating 4 times 7 years later.
We are not blind , Marco
Nor do we forget that with big time Conservatives Rush, Graham, Mc Cain, Flake, Shumer , Menendez , Durbin and Rubio. AKA Gang of Eight.
That worries me more than Repeating a line about Obama
I’ve listened to Rush on and off for years. we were members at one time. But he’s been unlistenable the last week or two. He really seems to have a bug up his butt about Trump. Maybe because he isn’t a politician and he can’t predict his behavior. He also does not give him credit for questioning Obama’s motives, and many other things he has been way out in front of everyone else. I would have thought Rush would be reveling in Trump’s decimation of the press. Before Iowa Rush sounded like he was working for the Cruz campaign, since Iowa it’s been all Rubio.
That is so strange. Sorry to hear it.
I thought about four Thursdays ago, he did a day on Trump and was very complimentary. Some folks were talking about it.
Did you hear that?
Most “experts” are saying old boring queer loving, twitchy mouth Kasich has a good chance to finish second tonight. Not Rubio, Kasich, who stands NO SHOT at winning in SC.
“I’ve given up on Rush. He is a 100% certified RINO now.”
Is the definition of a certified RINO now anyone who disagrees with some of the Freepers on this blog?
I can attest that given 100 Freepers there will be differences between every one of you on some point or another, There are millions of iterations with regards to the issues, and no one, I repeat NO ONE, is entirely in agreement with another person on every single issue.
With such stringent requirements it becomes obvious to me that the reason why liberalism and socialism is advancing so rapidly is that conservatives cannot get together on a candidate without throwing a hissy fit and staying home.
Ronald Reagan was a true blue conservative, and when he determined that he would not be able to move the Democratic majority in the House of Reps on economics, he pivoted and decided well, then, he would go after the most important issue in his Presidency - the DEFEAT OF THE SOVIET UNION. He did it and he succeeded. Was Ronald Reagan a RINO?
I agree with Rush on this and I don't like Rubio.
The message that Obama NOT incompetent but is successfully changing the country for the worse, needs to be repeated over and over again.
“Rush has got his head so far up his ass on this, I wonder if this will mark the end of his career in radio. He’s bound to retire sometime and it’s one thing to have a few libs upset at him, but another when he alienates a good fraction of his listenership.”
I’m sure Rush is shaking in his boots. Mark the end of his career in radio? That’s hilarious. There aren’t nearly as many of you as you think there are. I agree with Rush on this. Anybody who denies that Obama is doing this intentionally and it’s not just the result of incompetence are the ones with their heads where the sun don’t shine.
No, I wish I had. My coworker controls the radio (if he didn’t turn it on it would stay off lol). Anyway so many days it was just music, but then one day he asked if I minded Rush. He’s the new guy so I guess maybe he didn’t know if I cared. We are both for Trump. The whole shop is for Trump (all 4 of us lol). So I think back then maybe we were still listening to music. He’s a young guy (30) so it’s good he’s not one of those Bernie kids.
Alright, sounds good. The four of you should have fun this year.
