Speak Out: The Limbaugh Victory

THERE are many theories for why very conservative Republicans seem to be doing so well lately,...

But the most obvious explanation is the one that's been conspicuously absent from the gusher of analysis. Republican success in 2010 can be boiled down to two words: Rush Limbaugh.

...

Mr. Limbaugh loved being tossed into this briar patch. He mocked the notion that he was the titular leader of the Republicans even as he was becoming the party's top strategist and de facto boss.

...

But if the party sweeps this November under the banner of Real Conservatism, Mr. Obama will find himself facing two years of "no" in Washington and, very likely, a Limbaugh-approved opponent in 2012.

  • Love him or hate him, get used to the fact Limbaugh is a power to be reckoned with. The usual derogatory name calling has worn so thin as to become ineffective.

    Obama is in trouble and should realize it. November 2 will tell the tale.

  • Did Rush stump for tea party favorite Rand Paul? I don't know, because I am always at work during his program.

    I do know that his boy Hannity actively promoted the GOP appointed one - Trey Grayson, on his show. Hannity while a semi-decent debater (especially when he has one hand wrapped around the mic, and the other on the volume knob) is completely void of original ideas.

    How is this a victory for the Limbaugh / Hannity camp? Just because they are claiming to be part of the tea party movement, most "tea partiers" that I know could care less. They rightly see the Limbaugh / Hannity camp as supporting and promoting a Republican agenda that effectively set the table for the fast track to statism.

    Hannity has been very outspoken about his opposition to any third party / independent candidates that may upset the GOP apple cart. I can't imagine that his viewpoint is any different than his daddy's. Correct me if I'm wrong.

  • The article mentions Beck. He seems to clarify the parallel track of both parties toward tyranical rule. I don't hear that from Rush or Sean.

    So many folks defaming and critizing Rush probably means they can't make a reasonable argument against his general position that the country will be better off if Obama's agenda fails.

    I doubt the GOP will require Limbaugh's aproval and backing in choosing candidates to favor. He will most likely be in the camp against any democrat wether or not he approves of the GOP picked candidate.

  • Sliver--You forgot Manipulator. The LimBag plays to the desire we all have to make things better by cleverly throwing out words and phrases that associate his chosen crew (conservatives) with America, apple pie and all things good. From the other side of his enormously large mouth, he tags the dreaded "liberals" (aka anyone not in his camp) with all things evil and anti-American. In fact, he is like the pied piper, sucking in decent folk by attacking those "things" we all don't want and tying them in to to the non-conservatives, forgetting in the process under whose watch such events as $4 gas, the dotcom bust, the rise of wall street greed, the failure of Bear, Lehman, and AIG, the foundation of the government bailouts, and the occupation of Iraq actually took place. All while he strokes his loyal ditto-heads and adds to his personal bloated fortune.

    A fine leader indeed for the republican party!

    Can we think of anyone who might also fit this description, if we inserted Democrats after 'mainstream?' Be fair, now ... ~grinning~

    I sometimes rather enjoyed watching Olberman during the presidential campaign ... and at the same time compared his rants to Limbaugh's. But Maddow? After a while ... Ugh!

  • Keith O is no saint, but his loud-mouth rants do not attempt to trick and manipulate people with outright lies, like el Blimpo does, nor are they nearly as sneaky as Rush's insidious suggestions that he feeds to the faithful. Rush has a purpose---to lead the sheep to the slaughter of the evil libs, regardless of what divisive methods it takes. OB is more like Dick Vitale on Starbuck's hi-test, entertaining himself and his viewers with pure anti-Rush (Hannity-Beck-Foxnews,etc) rhetoric and getting off on his own furious energy.

    I noticed he used the term international order, or something like that. Otherwise it sounded like a well written speach writer's speach.

  • My. my, what wisdom we hear from the unwise, uneducated, and uninformed. What self-deception the Liberals practice.

    For certain Rush loses a good night's sleep as a result. Oh, boo hoo.

    -- Posted by voyager on Sun, May 23, 2010, at 1:55 AM
  • That would be "speech" John. And what you talkin' about V, with all those "uns"? Wisdom is Rush's personal term for the hogwash he feeds his brainwashed faithful, not any word I'd use to describe my own opinions, which I recognize as nothing more than that. Education---well, anyone can get some of that and I probably have my share, but that doesn't influence my opinions, just enables me to more clearly state them. And informed? The secret to being informed is to listen to it all, then separate the truth from the fiction. Rush, however, expects his listeners to accept whatever nonsense he spews just because the Great and Mighty always Righty One says so.

    No, he won't lose any sleep, resting soundly in his million dollar mansion, pumped up on Oxy and dreaming about his next gourmet meal, paid for by the loyal ditto-heads.

    -- Posted by Charlie Parker on Sun, May 23, 2010, at 8:32 AM
  • Actually paid for by his sponsors, Charlie. Paid because he has a vast listening audience whom they wish to reach.You and I are and will remain poverty stricken by comparison simply because we have not built a media audience and offered something the audience wishes to hear.

    It took business savy, a concentrated willpower, and focus to do what he has done. Apparently, a great many people do appreciate him. I am sure he would agree for you to copy his business plan to become a success in whatever field you might choose.

    Your oxy-cotin comment was a cheap shot and demeans the rest of what you had to say.

    -- Posted by almighty on Sun, May 23, 2010, at 2:24 PM
  • V-

    No cheap shot, just an admitted sour taste in my mouth (yes, still!) from the hypocrisy of one who made a big show of blasting others (liberals, of course) for breaking the law, using drugs, being dishonest, etc---until it applied to him. He's as bad as the steroid users in sports who can't admit what they did and pay the price. Instead he came up with an expensive defense and hid behind the privacy laws.

    Sorry V, but it's not cheap to deflate a balloon who puts himself up on a pedestal. He has it coming. I prefer someone like Robert Downey Jr who used drugs, had his fun, served his time, and is back to admit it and move forward. Rush is a hypocritical liar who passes himself off as some kind of leader, and has fooled too many good people with his slick lines.

    -- Posted by Charlie Parker on Sun, May 23, 2010, at 6:40 PM
  • Charlie, Rush admitted his addiction to pain pills and is still paying by being the subject of yours and likewise critizism.

    I don't know about his fun and I'm not familiar with Robert Downey's plight either.

    Gee if you hate the guy that much, turn the dial.

  • Gee Charlie, give Rush a break. After all he admitted his addiction to pain pills and doctor shopping (right after he got caught). And because he's Rush, he should be held to lower standards then common folks. If it was anybody else these guys would be all over it, but because he's one of their own - forget it.

    And while we are on the subject, Ike, how much scrutiny can your past tolerate. Do not pretend you are above human weaknesses and mistakes.

    In the meantime, lay off the personal critisism and confine your disagreement to politics.

    -- Posted by Spaniard on Thu, May 27, 2010, at 3:53 PM

    Ike,

    You are always wanting someone to furnish references and proof.

    How about.... you give us the exact amount amount of time he was "strung out". Along with time and dates, and the reference to where we can verify this information.

    Next give us the amount of damage he suffered to "have an effect". References again.

    If you cannot do the above, you really need to drop the subject and quit making such uninformed statements dripping with your hatred of the man.

    It makes you look small and insignificant.

    I have not listened to Limbaugh in years and take the reports of what he said or did as envy by his detrators for the most part. He is an entertainer, he does not make policy, so what is the big deal.

    -- Posted by Have_Wheels_Will_Travel on Thu, May 27, 2010, at 4:52 PM
  • Ike, you owe Rush an apology. Of course, you will refuse to do it. We can only think you are acting like a small time stubborn little bigot.

    Disagree with any position he takes if you want. The personal criticism is unwarranted and demeans you. If you are unable to understand that, how can anyone take you seriously?

  • Last time I took an IQ test was in college back in the mid 1950's as part of a test group in a the Doctorate research project by our psychology professor. In fact , took 2 of them.

    On the regular standard test most everyone was given at the time, my score was 121 which was considered average for our test group. The other test was a specialized test devised by the professor to be used in his Doctorate dissertation. Out of a possible score of 225 I made 172 which also he said was average for our test group. Yes, he got his Doctorate.

    Theorist, I am not receptive to liberal garbage. I do not suffer fools gladly.

  • I haven't listened to Rush in years. What little I know of his current positions comes from press reports that mention him. Nonetheless, I am tarred as a 'dittohead' if I speak in favour of certain positions on issues, as if those positions are somehow owned by Mr. Limbaugh, and only his followers are allowed to support them. That is the very type of mindlessness on the part of the the anti-Limbaugh crowd that they accuse his supporters of harbouring. Methinks the pots are calling the kettles black.

    Reading this post, I can see that the anti-Limbaugh crowd has nothing substantive with which to counter him, they merely resort to name-calling. Tsk, tsk. It's hard to support your claims that he is undeserving of being heard when all you can offer is arguments that are so undeserving of being read. He is merely one voice on the radio, offering his opinions which many are apparently willing to hear. I'm amazed that so many supposed advocates of free speech find it necessary to denegrate him for exercising it.

    I support the right of Mr. Limbaugh to speak his mind, just as I support the right of Mr. Olbermann and Ms. Maddow to speak theirs. I chose not to listen to any of them, however. I even supported Al Franken's right to speak his mind, although it troubled me that he had to use funds pilferred from an orphanage to keep his show on the air. Now, he's a Senator, apparently put there with pilferred votes. Such is the way of the world, is it not?

    The conservative viewpoint, if such a thing exists, is hardly a homogenous thing. Conservatives come in all stripes, and they do not have a single voice. Rush has his opinions, and they apparently echo much of what defines conservatism today, but that does not make him the conservatives' leader. He is one voice among many.

    One of the key elements of the current Democrat mindset is their willingness to blame others for their own failings. Thus, everything that has gone wrong since 2007 (when they took control of the Congress) is President Bush' fault. Their losses in elections since 2008 are the result of 'a dittohead mentality' or 'an anti-incumbent mood'. Even Timothy Geithner blamed his inability to do pay his taxes properly on the software. This unwillingness to accept their own responsibility is the thing that distinguishes them, and ultimately leads to their demise. The people eventually tire of such spinelessness.

    They use Mr. Limbaugh as a scapegoat for their own unpopularity. They ultimately have only themselves to blame.

  • I don't have three hours a day, five days a week, to listen to Rush or anyone else. Retirement wasn't supposed to be that way, but is. In many ways I'm busier than ever. However, I do hear him irregularly and find no objection with the sampling I do hear.

    As to his "showmanship", I lose interest quickly. As to his "subject substance," I can't disagree.

    As to Olberman and Maddow, both of whom I occasionally hear, I fail to understand what the concern is about. They are no more or less interesting than many other wannabees. What little TV I have time to watch is spent with History Channels, Military Channel, NatGeo, and Animal Planet.

    What do I do with all my time? That's my affair. MYOB.

    By the way what is your view of Robert Downey, Jr., and his drug problems? He's also an "entertainer". Same standard should be applied to both of them.

  • If Ike has evidence that Limbaugh is using illegal drugs is he guilty of being an accessory by not reporting it?

    Or is he just a blowhard reporting news that is history... how many year's old?

  • Oh heck, Wheels, Ike is just being his usual obnoxious self.

  • Ike just needs his goodnight warm milk and then be sent off to bed like a good little boy.

  • Ike,

    The purpose of my post was to get you to admit you were just blowing smoke and had no actual knowledge of Limbaugh currently doing anything illegal, or to produce some proof of it.

    I think I have my answer.

    You are rehashing history and you know nothing of any current illegal activity as it relates to Limbaugh.

    Thank you for your delayed response. ☺ ☺ ☺ ☺

  • Wheels, looks like Ike's warm milk clabbered over and soured his disposition some. When I need legal definitions, I go to my lawyer.

  • Voyager,

    Probably a better idea than finding some windbag that will spout off on subjects they have little knowledge of... other than what they find on the internet.

  • God preserve us from the "factual information" found on the internet, Wheels. Do you suppose Ike ever questions as accurate the "stuff" he finds there?

    Voyager, only if he disagrees with it, I would suspect.
