I listened to Rush starting in the early 90's for 10 years. I hadn't listened to him much since then, because I just wasn't in the car from 12-3.
Back in the 90's, Rush wasn't a Christian conservative, by any objective measure .. Rush was a secular conservative.
He may have changed, especially when it became obvious that God is in control.
Did Rush ever admit to being duped (and duping his listeners) about the Bushes? Rush used his considerable media influence to felate that miserable, globalist, elitist, baby killing Bush family to no end. I can't forget that.
Did Rush ever admit to being duped (and duping his listeners) about the Bushes?
The alternative at the time may have been the Clinton cabal, or something worse. Rush knew the difference between wishful thinking and practical political goals. Look what happened with Ross Perot in 1992.
OK. So, why didn't Rush come clean about the two establishment globalist presidents that he felated, even after it wouldn't affect their elections .. as a warning to his conservative followers?
Rush was an entertainer .. whatever it took to draw an audience. That's all he truly cared about.
You’re version of reality is fucked up. Rush articulated the Conservative truth during his years behind the mic in a way that brought many minds out of liberal think. He skewered the Clintons for years as well. He articulated the ideology of being pro-life better than anyone else during these years. I’m certain he like many, woke up to the harsh reality that B1 and B2 were not what everyone thought they were at the time. Trump opened the door to the harsh truth of these so-called Republican leaders. So stop acting like Rush was just playing games and entertaining. He was much more than that.
Since Reagan (who was America first) Trump was the only non establishment globalist. Even among the candidates Ross Perot was the only anti-establishment. Bush wasn't good, but was made to look far worse than he was by the Very Same MSM that told us Reagan and Trump were evil
You were just too asleep, and haven't done any research on your own to know this. Start reading on your own, and thinking for yourself.
Reagan Bad
Bush Bad
Trump Bad
Trump started thinking about running for president at least back in 1987. If you knew Trump's history, you would know he had failures along with success, and that he didn't let his failures define him, but overcame them. THAT is how became as famous as he was. He was the comeback king. People who haven't failed have usually never faced severe adversity and thus are likely not to have the skills to overcome serious challenges. Even Ronald Reagan with all his political acumen and popularity didn't have the same skill set for taking on any challenge that Trump had. With the exception of Lincoln, few presidents have faced the adversity Trump did. Expecting your average politician (which is what Bush was) to have those skills is naive. Expecting every candidate to be anti-establishment is like expecting Trump to be polite - unnecessary and unrealistic. Trump understood that the GOP needs to learn to walk before they can run. Right now, there are some that can't even crawl, and you think Rush was wrong for endorsing someone who couldn't win an Olympic hurdling medal. Your understanding of history more than a few years ago is weak - probably because you were brainwashed in school, and didn't wake up until relatively recently. (I would guess around the time that Obama was elected for your awakening).
You also seem to be obsessed with fellatio. I take that to mean you haven't been getting any, or you are projecting that you want to fellate someone.
It is sad to know there are Bushies on this forum.....evidenced by the downvotes. Can you faggots please get the fuck off of here. We are MAGA. You fucking neocon cum swallowers. Eat shit and die as well.
He changed the course of history by being the only wide-reaching voice that spoke out against the American left. Yeah, other voices came after him, but none of them would have existed if it wasn’t for Rush. He will be spoken of as a thought leader as important as Ben Franklin was to the American story.
Rush paved the way. Before him, it was like crossing the American frontier on horseback and fighting savages, wild animals, pestilence and severe weather along the way. After Rush - it was like a 4 lane highway for Conservative talk radio. Rush made sense to the average American worker. He spoke about the practical impact of leftist politics and explained the fundamental reasons leftism doesn't work.
I remember one of Rush's shows where he called out Bill Clinton for saying that African Americans watch the same television as normal Americans,as if African Americans weren't normal. Rush picked up on the little details and the big picture. He was a visionary who hadn't lost his grounding in reality.
I am thankful to have been able to listen to his shows for so long.
Saving this comment. Very well put. Before Rush you had conservatives, but they were guys like William F Buckley who no one could understand. Rush made sense of the complex like no other.
The Ben Franklin comparison is spot on. Rush made an extraordinary difference at such a foundational level that may have saved the Republic from collapsing due to the sheer number of people he was able to reach and instill the gift of conservatism in. He refused to bow down to the PC lynch mobs and this nation is 1,000x better for it.
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
It's a rebuke to people who make claims about ... "Oh they'll be known for all time."
It's best to be known through your actions and the ripples thereafter.
Be the best person you can be, because you will be forgotten.
The Ozymandias poem is the opposite of naive. Check out Mark Dice's on the street interview videos where people have NO idea why we celebrate 4th of July or that MLK didn't die this morning, and can't name any of the founding fathers - even when they're pointed out on the money they are carrying. The basic fact is as time moves on, very few people are remembered at all, and even some of those most important individuals are forgotten as well.
I would not say that we have lost so much this year, but we are beginning to realize what we have never had. We don't have a Republic, and perhaps soon, not even a country.
America died with the stolen election. Our military betrayed us and let Chinese puppets take control of the nation. The ONLY peaceful path forward is secession as maybe the new nation can be rebuilt in the founding fathers' vision.
Oh good, Hopefully the 8,000 people aren't imaginary like the rest of the QAnon promises because instead of 'transition to greatness" we have descent into communism.
That's just the death throes of the cabal exposing their own treasonous behavior: they will be dealt with. Some things will be revealed in the next few weeks. But you won't get it from MSM. The purpose for allowing the appearance of socialism and communism is to wake some people up to how bad it is--the ones that have been brainwashed into believing communism is a wonderful thing. That's not you, but don't believe MSM when they say "Trump is done--Biden won", either. Remember Trump saying "NEVER GIVE UP!" Don't think for a moment that he is through. The evil being removed is everywhere and in every government and in the biggest corporations, secret organizations, and media (the last to be taken down); so it has taken decades of planning and years of carrying it out, but GOOD has already won and is in control, and even MSM will soon be forced to report it (or die). So take heart...
Except for Trump, I believe Rush may be the most saintly person God ever delivered to this great Earth. He taught true CHRISTIAN values, and never wavered from them. He will be missed by any and all true Americans.
Wow!!! I can respect Rush for his work, even though it was all for naught, but he had like six wives. "The most saintly person God ever delivered to this great Earth" Hyperbole much? Never waivered from Christian values???
Sorry. I respect Rush for the very good work he did on behalf of mainstream conservatism for many years and hope his soul can rest in peace knowing everything he worked for has been in vain.. However, he had like six wives. I think it impossible that he had a "real bond with God".
You are on a site for Trump supporters. A lot of those supporters (almost certainly the vast majority) listened to Rush. Rush was a supporter of Trump and educator on the perils of liberalism. Much of the public sentiment against the corrupt Democrat system was brought about by the information from conservative sources. Rush Limbaugh was by far the strongest and one of the earliest of those sources of information. If Rush hadn't been there, the support for the MAGA movement would have been far weaker.
While what you say is true, it also requires people to totally ignore the fact that Rush was around much longer than MAGA and during all of that time supported what Trump would frame as “the swamp”.
Which alternative candidates would YOU have had Rush support? There was smelly slimy swamp and some patches of swamp that were slightly above ground. Most of the candidates were like choosing between Rosie O'Donnell and Kathy Griffin. Even if they had been anti-swamp, how would they have withstood their enemies?
How hard did President Trump have to fight against the swamp? How many average non swamp politicians could have stood up to that? Lincoln's history indicated he could have.
How many of the people Trump supported for election turned out to be swamp creatures anyways?
Trump wasn't naive. You can't play the 17th of Diamonds in Poker when it doesn't exist in the first place. That is what you are alluding that Rush should have done. If Trump thought he could have successfully bucked the entire system he wouldn't have agreed to stay within the GOP and would have run as an independent. He didn't.
Learn from what President Trump did.
Please list your non-swamp alternative choices that had a good chance of winning. I am all ears to learn from the wisdom you have that you think Rush did not have.
You’re only talking about Trump, while Rush had been a conservative broadcaster for decades.
He supported Republicans who are now seen as being part of the swamp/deep state, it doesn’t sit right that he have years advancing people like the Bush family then is suddenly a right hand to Trump and fighting off all these people he spent his life helping.
Him saying what people thought while riding Trumps coattails doesn’t change his past.
Rush is seen as a hero for what he did for conservatives through the years, yet he helped push the Iraq war and fully supported the Bush family who many believe are part of the deep state and were involved with 9/11.
How can conservatives get back into power when the litmus test of who’s worthy is based on knee bending alone.
Him saying what people thought while riding Trumps coattails doesn’t change his past.
The coat tail riding was the other way around. Trump resonated with Americans because Rush and those Rush inspired spread the conservative truth. Without that, the majority of Americans would still be trusting the news.
it doesn’t sit right that he have years advancing people like the Bush family
Who would you have advanced at the time instead? If you can't answer the question, then you are just another person who thinks their 20/20 hindsight is something special. It's not. Anyone can do that. It's like saying a stock broker is bad because they didn't advise you to buy Gamestop when it was
$2.57 cents a share and then sell it when it was $347.51
You need to understand historical happenings in the context of where and when they happened. Otherwise, you are living in historical revisionism. White man bad. Christianity bad. Western Society Bad. Capitalism Bad. America Bad. Orange Man Bad. Rush Bad. Get your head together and start thinking for yourself instead of just believing what you've been told and taught.
Yes, it takes some time and effort. It is worth it though.
Yet, here we are, witnessing Trump saving the country! We were all pretty much fooled by Republicans for awhile. I partially woke up when I researched and went to seminars about 9/11 not happening as the government reported it. That's when I realized Bush was not as he seemed, but not until recently did I realize how evil evil can be--he was in on the whole thing with the CIA!
The Bible warns us that Satan is an angel of light, but it's hard, when you're living through it, to avoid falling for his lies. We are to "Put on the whole armor of God that we may withstand the slings and arrows of the Devil." President Trump said "I will take the slings and arrows for you, so we can take our country back!" Be patient--it's happening. Once the swamp is completely drained, we will come out of this dark tunnel into the light!
The plan, twice thwarted--by JFK assassination and 9/11 massacre--is about to come into fruition. Watch the events of the next days, weeks.

So on his death bed, Rush was unable to warn his conservative following about the Bushes because the Clintons might kill him?
That's your explanation?
Really?
I said nothing about the Clintons trying to kill Rush. You imagined that all on your own.
The alternative to having Bush in office may have been a far worse democrat in office.
Reading comprehension is important.
OK. So, why didn't Rush come clean about the two establishment globalist presidents that he felated, even after it wouldn't affect their elections .. as a warning to his conservative followers?

Ummmmm...........what?
Translation:
Anything physical will crumble to dust. Doesn't matter who, what, or where.
Ideas though survive through generations.
Plus its from a book. I just forget which one it came from.
It's a rebuke to people who make claims about ... "Oh they'll be known for all time."
It's best to be known through your actions and the ripples thereafter.
Be the best person you can be, because you will be forgotten.
I disagree. I can think of plenty of people living and deceased that havent been forgotten. What a naive statement to make. Sad

For every absolute retard they put on the show there are hundreds they don't bc they know the answers.

Secession is legal and can be non-violent. The red states could leave Xiden's control without firing a shot. That's what we should be focusing on.

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
Amen!
Someone name a conservative who had greater impact. Go ahead, we'll wait.
My first sticky on patriots.win
Thank you mods. Not for me but for feeling how we should all feel. An American with a real sense of patriotism and love for his fellow man.
I love all of you and America will always be a strong country no matter what the media tells us.
Sorry. I respect Rush for the very good work he did on behalf of mainstream conservatism for many years and hope his soul can rest in peace knowing everything he worked for has been in vain.. However, he had like six wives. I think it impossible that he had a "real bond with God".
No one's perfect. The man led a stressful life, considering his business. I imagine he would have preferred to get things right the first time.
Praise be! Rush lives.
